[She killed him, then forgot him.
Now he's crawled out of hell to take his revenge.]
Three years ago, the Hundred Schools gathered atop Mount Tai, hoping to trigger the spiritual qi revival with the ultimate arts of their respective schools. Confucianism, Daoism, Mohism, Legalism, Military Strategy, Yin-Yang, and more: masters from every school poured all their strength into the effort. The vital energy of heaven and earth surged, and thunderclouds gathered.
But halfway through the ritual, the formation spiraled out of control.
Spiritual qi had yet to emerge, but the uncanny arrived first.
A pitch-black rift tore open in the void. A hundred ghosts roamed the night, and resentment flooded the land. That night came to be known as the Night the Hundred Schools Fell.
Wei Zhen, once a prodigy of the Mohist school's Heart Mirror Physique, should have shone brilliantly and soared to greatness after the spiritual qi revival. Instead, the disaster destroyed her Heart Mirror, shattered her memories, and left her a cripple, unable to sense even the slightest trace of spiritual power. All she had to help her survive in this age of uncanny resurgence was a body tempered through endless trials and a fighting instinct etched into her bones.
She had forgotten where she came from, and forgotten the person she had once sent to hell with her own hands. Now, she was merely an orphaned dorm supervisor at Mingling Academy, earning a meager wage by patrolling the buildings at night.
Until tonight, when that person returned from hell.
