Monk Lu Shaoqing never expected his fate to twist so wildly. After a mysterious accident, he came into possession of the legendary Spring and Autumn Ring, an immortal treasure of immense power. But instead of fortune, it brought calamity. Branded as a demon by the so-called righteous sects, Lu Shaoqing was hunted down and killed—betrayed by the very world he once sought to protect.
But death wasn’t the end. In a strange turn of destiny, he was thrown a thousand years into the past, waking up in the most impossible situation—sharing a body with the very enemy who ended his life.
Now deep within enemy territory, with the odds stacked against him, Lu Shaoqing must rely on his wits and cunning to outmaneuver those around him. He battles for control of his own body, uncovers hidden treasures buried within the stronghold of his enemies, and slowly begins to reshape his reputation. No longer just a fugitive or a fallen monk, he rises to become the most unpredictable and misunderstood figure of the righteous path—a so-called “prodigal son” that no one can quite figure out.
As ancient secrets begin to unravel and the truth of the Xiuzhen world is revealed, Lu Shaoqing realizes something chilling:
History itself has already changed—and he might be the one rewriting it.
