My Own Swordsman

Set in the small, lively Qixia Town, My Own Swordsman follows a tight group of friends whose daily lives mix laughter with quiet drama. The ensemble focuses on Tong Xiangyu, Bai Zhan Tang, Guo Fu Rong, Lyu Qing Hou, and Li Da Zui as they deal with personal setbacks, neighborhood disputes, and shifting loyalties. Episodes move between sharp comic scenes and softer moments, letting each character reveal flaws, strengths, and a sense of responsibility to the community.
