High above the heavens, the Immortal Emperor Chu Tian fails to transcend his tribulation. Surrounded and attacked by countless immortals, his body is shattered.
When he opens his eyes again, he has become the useless live-in son-in-law of the Lin family in Jiangcheng, humiliated by his wife's relatives and thrown out by his mother-in-law.
“A useless freeloader like you thinks he deserves to sit here?”
Chu Tian sets down his teacup and smiles faintly.
When ancient martial arts grandmasters kneel before him and call him their founding master,
when reclusive old monsters beg him for a pill to prolong their lives,
when the woman who once ground him beneath her heel trembles and asks
“Who... are you, really?”
Chu Tian stands with his hands behind his back, looking down upon all living beings:
“This world is nothing more than the starting point of my return to the peak.”
