Damian Mercer, a hidden genius doctor known as Umbra, lives disguised as a beggar to escape global pursuit. Heiress Liana Lowell gives him a black card; he diagnoses her with terminal Yin-collapsed meridians, but three famed doctors scoff. After publicly humiliating them, Damian is dragged to the Lowell estate, where his golden-needle technique miraculously saves Liana and shocks the medical world. Escaping afterward, he faces public disgrace: his fiancée Molly Sawyer and half-brother Rowan Mercer break their engagement and shame him. He learns the Mercer family has grown arrogant after his own subordinate, the Left Sentinel, secured a seat among the Twelve Ascendant Elders of the Sanctum. Now Damian, as Umbra, secretly plots revenge and announces he will attend the Mercer family wedding — igniting a scandal.
