A hundred thousand years ago, the Immortal King Gu Xiao carved out the Nine Provinces with supreme divine powers to shelter mortal peoples. Then he entered seclusion to pursue the supreme Dao, leaving behind a clone to maintain order across the Nine Provinces.
Who could have guessed that the clone entrusted with the Nine Provinces would fall deeply in love with a mortal woman, Liu Ruyan, giving her his whole heart and everything he had?
Yet Liu Ruyan conspired with the ambitious Ye Fan, using slow-acting immortal poison to devour the clone’s cultivation day and night. When he was at his weakest, she poisoned him to death and stole his Dao fruit.
Only after Liu Ruyan came to her senses did she realize that she had been Ye Fan’s pawn from beginning to end. But the clone’s soul had already been scattered, leaving no way to undo what she had done.
The Immortal King, still in seclusion, sensed his clone’s death. His boundless fury tore through the Nine Heavens as he returned to the Nine Provinces with the power to destroy the world.
The people are ignorant and foolish. They deserve to die!
Ye Fan twists right and wrong. He must be destroyed!
Liu Ruyan regrets it? She can regret it in hell.
