    One man, one sword, one ox, wandering the martial world for centuries, seeking immortality, severing all emotions and desires. He entered the fray at the peak, seemingly weak, but in reality, he was weak. It's a pity the protagonist faked his death later, though he was resurrected. It still left me feeling a little sad, especially for the Cat Fairy. Another book I read was "The Path of Ruthlessness," but sadly the author sold his account halfway through, and there was no more "Wild Wind Mini-Theater."
