Ling Xiao, the Nine Heavens Immortal Venerable, was betrayed by his beloved and sworn brother while attempting to break through to the highest realm during his tribulation. His soul escaped with the shattered Hongmeng Pearl, a supreme treasure of chaos, and he was unexpectedly reborn as a good-for-nothing live-in son-in-law in a modern city, sharing the same name as his former self.
For three years as a son-in-law, he endured humiliation from every member of the powerful Su family. They treated him as a useless freeloader, while his gravely ill mother had no money for treatment. Now they were even forcing him to leave with nothing. But the soul of an Immortal Venerable had awakened. How could anyone trample on his former glory?
In this mundane world, where spiritual energy was scarce, Ling Xiao used the Hongmeng Pearl as his foundation, converting emotional energy and unusual substances to make up for the lack of spiritual energy as he reforged his immortal body and restored his soul. He sold body-tempering pills as health supplements, used immortal formations to protect his family and grow their business, and brought his Immortal Venerable's cunning to the cutthroat business world. His thunderous methods cowed ancient martial families, supernatural organizations, and cultivation forces overseas.
From a despised live-in son-in-law to a business titan at the helm of a biotech empire; from the meager strength of early-stage Qi Refining to a Deification-stage Immortal Venerable sweeping aside fiends from beyond the realm; from a lone avenger to the alliance leader protecting Huaxia. Ling Xiao would not only make the traitors in the immortal realm pay their blood debt, but also restore the order of cultivation in the mortal world, protect his beloved, avert crises, and bring peace to the realm.
As the rules of the Immortal Venerable collide with modern civilization and a son-in-law's rise shakes the city, hidden ancient martial families, resurgent spiritual energy nodes, ancient secret realms, and fiends from beyond the realm on the verge of breaking their seals all emerge one after another. With his Dao companion Su Qingyue, a born Dao embryo, at his side, Ling Xiao cuts through every obstacle and defies fate to rise in the city. In the end, both the immortal and mortal worlds bow before him, and he forges an epic legend spanning both realms!
The poor loser seizes the Immortal Lord, is stupid, cowardly and holy, and is not as good as ordinary people. In the later stage, he is either fighting or on the way to fight.
