About This Novel
The moment the furnace door closed, the boy was still laughing. "I will be reborn here-" Li Hai's voice came from behind, as calm as if he was reading a menu: "Your father was like this back then. Standing here, watching, unable to do anything." A month ago, Xu Yixian was still nibbling French fries in bed when her father kicked her into a cram school to become a tutor. He leads a bunch of losers who can't afford tuition. Li Hai, the tutor of the rival class, used the life of his students to make weapons to extend his life, and no one dared to care about him for decades. The rules say "the instructor may not directly teach the secret method" - but for three hundred years, no one has ever followed it. Li Hai stretched out her hand to him: "Make a deal." Xu Yexian refused. He made a bet: one month later, the student would become an immortal. The stakes are his life, the lives of his family, and what his father left to him - a heart that refuses to be complicit. He threw a wordless book to the students: "Swing the sword a hundred times every day. When you swing, ask yourself a question - why do you swing this sword?" What he doesn't know is that the answer to this question will cost him everything.
