(No harems, no clichés, no melodrama, no idiocy, no naive wish fulfillment, and no plot-driven deaths. Read at your own discretion.)
A sect is reduced to just two people, and both die on the battlefield. An abandoned child emerges from that sect and takes one step at a time into a jianghu drenched in blood and chaos, becoming a hero.
Here, the protagonist drives the story forward. Through his journey, we glimpse the lives of ordinary people at the bottom of the jianghu, as well as those of the powerful at the top.
The protagonist is simply a guide through the story, bringing to life the hardships and struggles, the lives and trials of people from every layer of jianghu society, in a raw and brutal way.
In truth, people at the bottom are destined to struggle in every era.
It's good to read, but martial arts novels are lonely.
