The Blood-Guardian Blade’s Journey Across the World

For generations, the Yang clan has wielded a meteoric iron sabre and borne the bloodline of the Blade Guardian—but their legacy is shattered when a sitting minister secretly plots their downfall. Yang Fan’s own father-in-law betrays the marriage bond for power and position, and Yang Fan can only watch helplessly as his family is annihilated. Forced to flee the capital through a dog hole, he is separated from his wife, Sun Yan, without a trace. He goes into hiding, changes his name, and runs a humble tea stall for three years. But when the Six Gates arresters begin sniffing around, he knows he must move. Following a cryptic tip from the Mud-Bodhisattva fortune-teller, he infiltrates the Zhou family escort agency and joins a caravan tasked with delivering a secret consignment from the minister’s manor. Along the road lies a haunted village, ambushes by ghostly marauders, and a massacre of the guards with corpse-melting powder. The frail and sickly young heir of the minister, Shen Wenxuan, suddenly reveals peerless martial prowess—beneath layer upon layer of disguise, his true goal is to seize the sabre. With his Guardian bloodline as his only shield, Yang Fan endures and schemes step by step. Carrying the meteoric iron blade through every storm ahead, he journeys back to the capital to settle a blood debt, uphold his clan’s vow, and carve his own path across the world with that one treasured sabre.
