Li Xuanying possessed a heart attuned to the sword and was once the Heavenly Sword Sect's greatest prodigy, adored by everyone in the sect.
But because of the Chosen One, whose destiny supposedly made him the only one capable of overcoming the coming calamity, Li Xuanying lost his sword heart and his reputation as the sect's top prodigy.
His once-beloved master grew cold and heartless toward him, while the senior and junior sisters he had helped showered him with insults.
Meanwhile, they doted on the Chosen One who had stolen his heart.
Li Xuanying didn't care about any of it. All he wanted was to do his part for the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Then one day, over some matter, the sect members forced Li Xuanying to apologize to the Chosen One...
“I only asked for a fair outcome, but you keep taking his side. I want no part of a sect like this.”
“Li Xuanying, think carefully. If you leave the Heavenly Sword Sect, you'll have to return all the cultivation you've gained. With your current condition, who besides the Heavenly Sword Sect would take you in?”
If this place won't have me, another will. I'm done here.
But no one could have foreseen that Li Xuanying's departure would bring about the true heavenly tribulation.
