Synopsis

Li Huai is the illegitimate son of Li Manqing and the grandson of the legendary "Little Li Flying Dagger" Li Xunhuan. When he eventually meets his father for the first time, their reunion is an unhappy one as his stepmother and stepbrother refuse to accept him into their family. Li Huai eventually leaves after learning his grandfather's famous skills and finds a treasure hoard left behind by his maternal family. He roams the jianghu with his newly-mastered skills and wealth to help the poor and fight injustice.

During his adventures, Li Huai gets involved in a love triangle with two women: Xue Caiyue and Fang Keke. Xue Caiyue and him are star-crossed because his father had killed her father in a duel many years ago, and she still seeks vengeance. Fang Keke has a crush on him and feels indebted to him because he had used his wealth to help her change her life. At the same time, Li Huai's two childhood friends also play significant roles in shaping his path: Zhao Chuan is kind towards him but he is also secretly in love with Fang Keke, while the scheming and ungrateful Zhang Zhen exploits Li Huai to achieve his dream of becoming the richest man in town.
