On the night of the birthday banquet in the Northern Frontier, the entire Duke of Zhenbei’s household was slaughtered.
The Great Jing imperial family and Shangxuan Sect jointly announced to the world that the Lu family had been harboring a demonic vessel and plotting rebellion. They were to be executed.
And so Lu Chen, the sickly young heir, went from the pampered legitimate son of a military family to a fugitive hunted across the Nine Provinces.
He coughed up blood, frail and close to death, yet within him lay a string from the Fuxi zither and a seed from the Demon Abyss.
The world feared he was a demon. The emperor wanted him dead, the immortal sects wanted to refine him into medicine, the demon tribes looked on coldly, and none of the common people believed him.
Then he would flee.
Flee beyond the Eastern Sea, into the forbidden lands of the Southern Frontier, beyond the reach of the immortal sects and the imperial cavalry.
Then cultivate.
Use the divine to suppress demons, demons to temper his bones, vengeance as his fuel, and the killing intent of all living beings as his forge.
One day, he would return to Guixu. Those who had destroyed his family would pay in blood, and the usurping emperor, the hypocritical immortal sects, and the old pact with the Demon Abyss would all face judgment amid the blizzards of the Northern Frontier.
My name is Lu Chen.
Lu, of the Lu family. Chen, as in an injustice buried deep.
On this journey, I seek no immortality. I seek only to bring every enemy to their knees.
