Storyline

Chu Qiao (Zhao Liying) is a slave at the Yuwen Manor and she is trained by Yuwen Yue (Lin Gengxin) as a spy with martial arts. She is given the name Xing'er. Little did she know that she is actually a top martial artist who has lost her memory after being attacked by her enemies.

Yuwen Yue is the master of Yuwen Manor and heir to Eyes of God. Though he looks like a cold man with few words, he actually cares about others. His intelligence helps him to avoid in political power struggle.

Yan Xun, Prince of Northern Yan (Shawn Dou), being held as hostage at Northen Wei. Wei's Emperor uses Yan Xun as a way to control Duke Yan's power.

Yuwen Yue and Xing'er have feelings for one another, but part their ways due to misunderstanding. She forgoes her name and uses back Chu Qiao. At the same time, Yan Xun's families were framed as traitor and massacred. 

Chu Qiao stands by Yan Xun's side during this period and they form an unbreakable bond. Chu Qiao assists Yan Xun in escaping from Wei to Yan. She leads Xiuli Army who once caused the downfall of Yan.

Yan Xun and Chu Qiao got separated during the escape. Yuwen Yue saves Chu Qiao from danger multiple times. Yan Xun is blinded by jealousy and sets a trap to kill Yuwen Yue. Chu Qiao goes to his rescue.

My View

The episode where Yan Xun's families were killed is too overwhelming for me. I was tearing up like crazy that my eyes went swollen for quite a bit.

Overall, PA is a great work but it ends with cliffhanger. I hope there is a season two soon because the best is yet to come.

Rating

5/5 Stars
