Chen Zexin is widely known as a good-for-nothing in Chenjia Village.
Three years ago, he was a genius whose spiritual aptitude test sent golden light soaring into the sky. Everyone admired him, and he was betrothed to a prestigious family. Three years later, his spirit root is sealed, his cultivation is gone, and he lives in a dilapidated cave, enduring everyone else's abuse.
That day, his fiancée arrives on a green luan, but not to honor their engagement. She has come to break it off.
"Three years from now, I, Chen Zexin, will stand proudly before the gates of the Lingxiao Sect! When that day comes, I won't ask you to kneel or beg. I only want you to say one thing with your own lips: back then, you were wrong!"
He swears a blood oath, only to receive a scornful glance from an elder of the Water Moon Palace. "A thing as lowly as an ant dares to make such claims?"
