Was Gu Mang auf der Dämonen-Insel im Zeitspiegel erlebt hat, hat ihn verändert: Zwar hat er seine verlorenen Erinnerungen zurückerlangt. Trotzdem scheint er sich nun erst recht von Mo Xi zu distanzieren – dem Mann, den er doch über alles liebt. Mo Xi steht der neuen Grausamkeit seines Freundes hilflos gegenüber. Mehr und mehr ist er davon überzeugt, dass sich hinter Gu Mangs Verrat vor acht Jahren noch immer einige Geheimnisse verbergen. Doch um ihre Mission zu beenden und nach Chonghua zurückzukehren, müssen Mo Xi und Gu Mang zusammenarbeiten.

Der Adelige Mo Xi und Gu Mang, der aus einfachen Verhältnissen stammt, sind die Helden von Chonghua: zwei ebenso mutige wie kluge junge Generäle und Waffenbrüder.

Sechs Jahre später kehrt Gu Mang aus dem verfeindeten Kaiserreich Liao zurück, das sich schwarzer Magie verschrieben hat. Doch er ist nicht mehr derselbe und nur Mo Xi kann ihn retten.
