After my Dao companion's thread of causality was ripped away, he became Kunlun's sharpest sword, without weakness or a past.
He plunged his own life-bound sword through my heart.
Everyone said I was dead, killed by the person I loved most.
But they didn't know
I woke in a sacred land in Nanjiang, with the remnant soul of an ancient shamaness dwelling inside me.
She told me that someone had turned my Dao companion into a key.
Later, we fought our way up Kunlun, took over the Ghost Market, and ventured into Guixu.
There, we discovered that the key inside Bai Ji was connected to the highest authority in the Nine Heavens.
And Lu Mi, the inspector traveling with us, had once used himself as a vessel to suppress that same power.
Then the Nine Heavens' “Dust-Cleansing Envoys” descended, intent on erasing us, a group of anomalies, with their rules. I ignited the sacred flame of my moonlit eyes and burned through the shackles of causality.
“If you use your rules to judge all living things, then I'll use this vast mortal world to judge your rules!”
