In a land where martial arts shape the rise and fall of every life, Shi Mu’s path was never meant to be ordinary. Taken in by a powerful clan but never truly belonging to it, he grows up carrying the weight of expectations he never asked for. Yet it is this very burden that pushes him toward a journey of self-discovery and quiet defiance.
From the fierce four-school tournament in Fengcheng to the tangled feuds between rival sects, Shi Mu finds himself caught in a world where every alliance hides a motive and every enemy tests the limits of his spirit. Each battle, each betrayal, and each narrow victory hardens his resolve rather than breaks it.
As he digs deeper into the mysteries of his past, Shi Mu awakens to the truth of his own bloodline—an ancient power capable of reshaping not only his fate, but the destiny of everyone drawn into his orbit. And with that realization, he steps forward not just as a survivor, but as someone who can change the world itself.
