Synopsis
Chu Xinghe was just a street vendor selling candied hawthorns, until one day a gleaming sword pressed against his throat. “The Nine-Aperture Exquisite Heart is indeed inside you,” said Leng Qingshuang, the cold and aloof chief disciple of the Xuantian Pavilion. She had no idea that this single sword strike would set an extraordinary legend in motion.
Forced to flee for his life, Chu Xinghe gradually discovers that the strange nature of his heart not only helps him escape danger at the brink of death, but also draws all kinds of peerless beauties to him without his even realizing it. Ye Weiyang, the Demon Cult’s holy maiden, is ordered to take his life, yet blushes while drinking with him beneath the moon. Su Yuyan, heir to the Divine Healer Valley, treats his wounds, but can’t heal the feelings growing in her own heart. Even Leng Qingshuang, who swore to kill him, finds her sword slowing with every encounter...
But hidden within the body so many people covet is a secret capable of overturning the entire world of cultivation. Each time Chu Xinghe unlocks one of the heart’s nine apertures, he draws closer to the truth sealed away for ten thousand years. Will he become a savior, or a demon who brings about the world’s destruction? On this path filled with temptation and danger, the women who gather around him because he treats them with genuine sincerity become his strongest support.
From the bustling streets to the immortal sects, from an ordinary mortal to the supreme, Chu Xinghe uses his unique charm to write a legend of winning without fighting. When the final battle arrives, those standing behind him are the very enemies who once sought his life. Now, they would rather stand against the entire world than let any harm come to him.
