Plot

edit

Due to fate, Jun Qiluo met Sun Siru while collecting dead bodies. As time passes, the two girls grow up and fall in love with the same man, Mu Sheng. Sun Siru is jealous, and Mu Sheng finds out that even though he loves Jun Qiluo, he actually wants a weak woman. He prefers the gentle Siru instead of the rough Jun Qiluo. Mu Sheng distanced himself from Qiluo, and Siru takes advantage of this situation. Qiluo is initially sorrowful, but she forgives Mu Sheng and Siru. She also finds solace with Lin Chuyi, a homeless man.

Soon, Ming Zhixie is hosting a selection for young women. He is the owner of the Ming Castle. Qiluo was initially selected, but Siru offers to replace her. Siru is greedy and thought that she would have a higher social status. However, Ming Zhixie is violent and tortures her. Siru finds out that Ming Zhixie's nephew Ming Shaoqing is interested in her, and together they murder Ming Zhixie. Ming Shaoqing becomes the owner and Siru becomes the lady of the Ming family.

Siru blames her suffering on Qiluo and imprisons Qiluo's whole family. Siru forces Qiluo to marry Chuyi, and Qiluo reluctantly agrees to protect her family. After their marriage, Mu Sheng returns to the Ming Castle. He starts a fight with Chuyi, and the two swordsmen fight gruesomely. They are forced to stop and are kicked out of the Ming Castle.

Years later, Jun Qiluo witnesses Siru and Mu Sheng's marriage. Siru had abandoned Ming Shaoqing to marry her first love. Qiluo, now depressed, swears revenge against the Siru and Mu Sheng with the help of Chuyi.
