[Dual male leads + fantasy wuxia with a touch of mystery + two equally powerful leads + a touch of ensemble cast + revenge]
The young Ren Pingsheng was born with a sword bone and wields the pitch-black longsword Zhaoxue.
A soul dwells within the sword, calling itself Shi Can Shang. Cold, taciturn, and exacting, it becomes the boy’s only companion as he stumbles through his growth.
Thirty years ago, Zhaoxue belonged to Shi Huai, the greatest swordsman in the land, who was also known as a “traitor” to the martial world. He and Jun Huaiyue, the young master of the demon sect, died together in the Formless Cavern.
Now the secret realm has reopened, and the hundred sects are stirring once more. Drawn by fate, the boy ventures into the martial world and is swept into the chaos of the sects’ war.
“Can Shang, are you my master? My friend? My enemy? Why… are you treating me this way?”
“Pingsheng, I told you: in this world, there will always be people who lie, betray, plunder, and kill for no good reason at all, and I’m no exception.”
Ren Pingsheng (Shi Huai) / Jun Huaiyue (Shi Can Shang)
A reincarnated hero with amnesia / a demon sect’s young master whose temperament has changed dramatically
(I accidentally chose the wrong category and tagged this as historical romance. It’s actually a dual-male-lead story, and I’ll fix the tag later. Can Shang starts out as a sword spirit and will get a body later.)
