Orphaned at a young age, he relied on his clan for support, only to witness the deaths of his people as he grew up. Neglected by his family and only wanting to live a carefree life, fate brought him his nemesis. Unsuitable for leadership, he now had to shoulder the honor and disgrace of his entire clan due to various circumstances. Wang Xuanyi turned back, taking a deep, poignant look at the place where he had grown up, before leading his children and flying away into the distance without looking back… This book tells the story of a small Foundation Establishment clan that, through generations of effort, grows into an immortal clan… Completed at 2.63 Million words, welcome to read!
