Blurb:
Xuanqing had known since childhood that he was a rare genius, unlike anyone else in the world.
It wasn’t arrogance or fantasy. A voice in his dreams had told him so.
“□□□□, remember your talent. Don’t forget it, and don’t let it go to waste!”
So he picked up a sword, and it moved as fluidly as if it were his other half.
He picked up a bow, and a thousand miles was no distance at all.
The people around him praised him. “Someone this skilled is a rarity even across the stars.”
Then they said, “All he cares about is weapons. What a strange fellow.”
He never paid them any mind, until the day outsiders descended upon this planet and brought “immortality.”
He picked up his sword and saved a young man.
He woke once more in darkness thick with the smell of earth. It wasn’t supposed to happen like this.
Then he saw a white-haired young man.
The man asked, “How did you do it?”
Then he said, “Go. Don’t return to the Xianzhou.”
He fell into a deep sleep. It seemed someone had carried him away, only to leave him alone again.
When he opened his eyes once more, a woman with purplish-red hair whispered, “Shh, ‘listen to me.’ It’s time to wake up.”
