[Reader's Note]
A tribute to Wang Yu. This is a fan-fiction spin-off of A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality, expanding on details left open in the original. It is not official canon and is intended for discussion only. The characters and settings belong to the original author, Wang Yu.
You’ve read Venerable Han’s story.
But there are things the original never told.
What was Mu Peiling thinking before she was consumed by her inner demons?
What kept Nangong Wan going as she stood alone beyond the boundary for tens of thousands of years?
At her lowest point, did Ziling ever think of giving up?
Did Mei Ning regret so easily surrendering her Tongyu Phoenix Marrow body?
Xuan Gu schemed and calculated everything. Where, exactly, did his final move go wrong?
Feng Xi cultivated for a thousand years before taking human form, yet died never understanding how he could have fallen at the hands of human cultivators.
And there are so many more people who lived for only a single line in the book, yet spent their whole lives bringing it to life.
This is not a rewrite of Mortal.
It is about picking up those people who were brushed aside in a few words, and giving them life again.
