Volume One: Storms in the Mortal Realm
Chapter 1 The Storyteller of Lanxian Town
The sun is setting in the west, and the bluestone road in Lanxian Town is filled with broken gold.
The town is not big, with about 300 households in total, but its name is resounding - Lanxian Town. It is said that an immortal passed by here thousands of years ago and rested on the stone bridge at the east end of the town. Later, the bridge was called "Yingxian Bridge".

"Crack!"
Xingmu slapped the sound, and the noise immediately stopped.
The young man behind the table was only about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was wearing a green shirt that had been washed white. He had clear eyebrows and a natural three-point smile at the corner of his mouth.

Someone was booing below: "Lin Xuan, you are a mortal, what fairy tales do you know?"
