Jiang Xuan was sure he had to be the unluckiest young master in the Myriad Worlds.
His father was an Imperial Venerable who commanded awe throughout the Myriad Worlds, and his family was an unrivaled Imperial Clan. He should have been able to lie back and become an immortal, but his family tradition turned out to be the Way of Caution: always stay one step ahead!
After causing a bit of “trouble,” his own father sealed his invincible divine physique with a bolt of lightning and kicked him to the middle of nowhere, the Qinglan Realm. The official excuse was “experience life at the grassroots and temper your Dao Heart.”
With his cultivation reduced to the Qi Condensation stage and no resources to his name, what was he supposed to do?
Jiang Xuan smiled calmly. “No big deal! The first rule of the Jiang family creed is: Can't beat them? Call for backup!”
He'd planned to cultivate quietly, then casually swindle a few arrogant second-generation immortals and make a fortune on the sly.
But he accidentally got involved with Su Wanwan, a gentle, charming junior sister whose background was shrouded in mystery.
She blocked the door with a sweet smile. “Senior Brother, bring me along next time you set someone up. We can work out the split.”
From then on, everything went completely off the rails!
He set the traps, she handed him the rope. He searched the bodies, she kept watch. He called for backup... and she called in even more than he did!
He'd thought they'd just team up to sweep through the realms' prodigies and rake in a fortune.
But he gradually discovered that his old rivals were reappearing in bizarre forms, fallen enemies were returning wrapped in gray mist, and the mastermind was an otherworldly calamity devouring the Myriad Worlds!
When eerie whispers rang across the sea of stars and ominous gray fog engulfed the world, billions of lives trembled in fear.
Countless peak experts cried out in despair: “The end is here!”
Jiang Xuan calmly pulled out his family's Imperial Jade and cleared his throat.
“I tried to get along with you as an ordinary person, but all I got was cold shoulders and a manhunt? Fine, I'll come clean. I'm calling for backup!”
Imperial might crossed worlds, and the ancestors descended!
But a sword beam, faster than even imperial might, had already torn through the cosmos
