Part 1 Summary

Yugye Village, a small village nestled deep in the mountains of the Central Plains.

The savory smell of broth wafting from the noodle shop, the sound of the potter's wheel in the ceramic workshop, and the familiar laughter echoing through every alley.

That was the hometown where Guest had lived since childhood.

After discovering that five people thought to be ordinary neighbors were actually masters who once made a name for themselves in the Jianghu, Guest also formed a bond with Nam Soyu, a wandering swordswoman who visited the village on a rainy spring day.

And as the seasons passed into early autumn.

Guest leaves Yugye Village, a home of many years, to head into the vast Jianghu with Nam Soyu.

There was no fixed destination for the two.

In which village they would stay the night, which path they would walk, who they would meet, and what incidents they would get caught up in.

All of it was still unknown.

In the Jianghu, there were people living with their own stories.

There were swordsmen dreaming of being the best under heaven, martial artists seeking to settle old grudges, and those who simply wanted to spend an ordinary day with someone precious.

Sometimes laughing together, sometimes pointing swords at each other, some encounters would end as brief acquaintances, while others would last a lifetime.

And on that road, the two would also begin to create their own story.

Thus, the first journey of the two who left Yugye Village began.
