Welcome to Eta Ria, a kingdom above the floating clouds. Let's open the door, grab our staffs, and embark on an adventure that begins here-- Through the rolling hills of clouds and seas, like wandering grassy meadows, shallow rivers glisten; Across the fields flowing with gold and honey, brimming with laughter, beneath the low-roofed cottages of Rodale, a gentle song floats. Through the ancient lush forests of Egonn, where dark branches twist and whisper lingers; Over the steep ridges and towering mountains, the underworld stirs in shadows, danger lurks, and swords gleam. A boy chases the stories of dreams, above the sky and the spine of clouds, the shadow of dragons soars, spreading its wings. And even after the dust of time settles, the hearth still burns bright.

This is a game of Jianghu martial arts, a game of martial arts in Jianghu. The protagonist of the game is "Fei, the Ill-fated", who originally came to help a friend with a task, but unexpectedly got caught up in the world of Jianghu. He doesn't have the ambition to dominate Jianghu, but he dreams of the game's Jianghu. With his red tassel spear in hand, he can also create a legendary hero. (In principle, this book will have little to do with the original plot, but rather aims to depict the stories that follow. For example, the married life of Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying, the cohabitation story of Ying Gu, Old Heretic, and Yi Lin, Dongfang Unbeaten actually didn't die, she crawled out of the lake and continued to secretly love Linghu Chong, Li Xunhuan and Sun Xiaohong's life as an older husband and younger wife, let's not forget Qiao Feng who fell off the mountain, and the eccentric young Rong, etc.) This is a small work I created to expand my creativity. "Monster-catching Chronicle" reached a bottleneck, so I wrote "The Red Tassel Chronicle" to console myself.
