The Traces of Qingming: The Sword God's Son and the Twelve Secret Tomes
Synopsis:
Tongzhou Commandery, a martial arts sanctuary northwest of Dali, had heard just one name repeated for the past decade: Fan Yangming, the Sword God. When his Azure Dragon Spear appeared, all under heaven bowed. Yet at the height of his fame, he lost interest in the martial world and drifted into seclusion, leaving no trace behind. All he left was an eighteen-year-old son, Fan Xingyu.
Fan Xingyu had inherited the Fan family's secret arts. Handsome and composed, he had been chosen as the family's heir. But at his coming-of-age ceremony, the Liu family made their move, and he unexpectedly discovered that his father's retreat from the world was closely tied to the legendary “Secret Manuals of the Twelve Divine Lords.” Vowing to uncover the mystery of his father's disappearance, he left Tongzhou alone and ventured into the vast, turbulent martial world of Dali.
