[An Overview of the Whole Story] Each person answers the same question in their own way: How should we choose?
The Beginning of Fate: Wen Zhong is reborn, sees the future, and begins to choose.
At Juelong Ridge, flames consume him. As Wen Zhong dies, he sees the Shang dynasty fall and the Jie Sect wiped out.
Then he wakes up. It is the seventh year of King Zhou's reign, and Su Hu has rebelled against the Shang. In the bronze mirror, he sees his youthful face. Outside, the morning bells of Chaoge ring. The great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods is still a full three years away.
He knows everything that will happen. But he soon discovers that knowing the future doesn't mean he can change it.
He goes to Jizhou and meets Daji. He doesn't kill her. Instead, he takes her as his adopted daughter and keeps her by his side. He returns to Chaoge and sees the people who died tragically in his previous life. He makes secret plans to protect the loyal and virtuous. He visits the Jie Sect and warns his fellow disciples to beware of the coming calamity.
But the Jie Sect Disciples still descend the mountain one by one, and die one by one. Zhang Guifang dies. The Four Sages die. The Ten Heavenly Lords die.
He asks himself: I made my choices, but what good did they do?
Wen Zhong chose. He chose to believe, to persevere, and to make sure everyone had a choice.
In this life, he chose. That is enough.
What about you?
