Among the Colorful Clouds

Sixteen years ago, on a stormy night, killing swept across the land. After Bai Ci and his closest friend fled in panic, they spent more than a year on the run, eventually finding refuge with a butcher's wife amid ice, snow, hunger, and cold. For five years, he lived under another's roof and experienced every shade of human kindness and cruelty. Later, he happened upon an old Daoist with an immortal air. Before Bai Ci could even say goodbye, he resolutely left with the old Daoist and embarked on the path of cultivation. Ten years passed in the blink of an eye. When he returned, the world had changed once more...

In the boundless tribulations of heaven and earth, what choice should the young man make? Draw his sword and challenge the heavens, or keep to himself and stay out of the world?
