Wu

My name is Ji Yunzhao, and I'm an ordinary farmer.

It wasn't until the Ying clan's iron cavalry trampled my village that I learned people in this world were ranked by their surnames.

They said that because my surname was Ji, I was one of the most noble people under Heaven. But all I saw was that they used my name to slaughter every villager.

They forced me to awaken my bloodline and become a tool in their struggle to rule the world.

But they didn't know that my bloodline exists to protect everyone.

Later, when the flood of the Si clan submerged half the Central Plains, when the flames of the Yun clan burned the forests of the southern frontier, and when everyone had fallen into despair, I stood atop the ruins and heard the world's lament for the first time.

So the war among the eight great clans was nothing more than a dying struggle.

The true enemy is Heaven.
