Xu Mo didn’t start off as anyone special. No grand bloodline, no ancient legacy. Just a quiet village boy adopted by a herb doctor and his wife, living a peaceful life with a smile on his face and dirt on his feet. Then one day, the sky cracked open. His childhood friend awakened something powerful—something terrifying—and was whisked away by sword-riding immortals. By the time the storm cleared, Xu Mo had lost everything: his home, his parents, and the only person he ever wanted to protect. The world didn’t wait for him to grieve. He was tricked, abandoned, and thrown into the dirt like a broken tool. But Xu Mo didn’t cry. He didn’t rage. He just… watched. Years later, when a sect opened its doors to new disciples, he stepped forward—not to chase glory or power, but because he had no choice left. What started as a step toward revenge might just lead him down a path the heavens never expected. He doesn’t speak much. He doesn’t draw attention. But behind those calm eyes? He remembers everything.
