This is the ultimate counterattack legend in a world of high martial arts:
Young Lin Chen was humiliated by his fiancée Nalan Yanran who broke off the engagement in public, and became an abandoned son of the Nalan family. While in exile, she awakened the forbidden magic skill "Heaven-Devouring Art", but unexpectedly discovered that Yan Ran wanted to sacrifice her biological mother Su Qingyue with her blood in order to achieve the position of empress. On the God Burial Cliff, he brazenly snatched the marriage and announced in public: "Nalan Yanran, your mother and I are determined to marry you!" - And this set off a war in mainland China.
On the way to escape, Su Qing awakened to her identity as the first-generation empress and fought against Yanran's tyranny with Lin Chen. When Yan Ran slaughtered people with the God-killing Spear, Lin Chen suddenly realized the true meaning of magic: power is not to plunder, but to protect. He spent all his cultivation to bear the calamity on behalf of the common people, and finally reset the rules of martial arts with benevolence. In the end, the once-downtrodden son-in-law was crowned the emperor, and Su Qingyue abolished the family's privileges. And Yanran became a crazy beggar, witnessing the silver epiphyllum blooming all over the new world amidst the sound of children throwing mud.
