Huang Rong is gravely wounded after escaping Qiu Qianren’s mountain stronghold, and Guo Jing carries her in search of the healer known as Duan, King of the South. Their journey through hidden retreats and old grievances is shadowed by a plan formed on Peach Blossom Island and by Guo Jing’s obligation to attend the long-delayed contest at Jiaxing.

The Mongol advance forces Guo Jing to confront the deepest division in his life. Genghis Khan’s people raised him, and he remains betrothed to the khan’s daughter, yet Mongol conquest now threatens the Chinese homeland he has learned to claim. The conclusion makes military expansion inseparable from romantic and filial loyalty, requiring Guo Jing to choose between the army that formed him and the society he believes he must defend.
