Ying Xun transmigrated into a book, becoming a background character in the story: the last ruler of a fallen cultivation dynasty.
His birth mother died young. He scraped by in the cold palace until he was eight, an invisible nobody to his father and a punching bag for his older brothers. When the kingdom fell, the princes who had once lorded over everyone fled with the treasury, leaving him to take the throne and serve as their scapegoat.
The original Ying Xun fought bravely to the bitter end. When he failed to take his own life, he was captured, suffered every humiliation, and eventually died beneath a storm of blades.
His fate was utterly miserable. As for Ying Xun, who had transmigrated into the book, he had one thing to say: Anyone can be emperor, but it won't be me.
So Ying Xun ran for it. Unfortunately, luck was against him: he stumbled upon a murder and robbery, and just as he was about to be silenced, he was taken away as a puppet because he looked exactly like the young master of a certain sect.
And so Ying Xun kept a low profile and secretly cultivated, all to prepare for his future escape.
A year later, his identity was exposed. The escape he had carefully planned was interrupted by a man whose appearance was exactly the same as his own.
The man wore a black robe, his body wreathed in demonic energy. He tipped Ying Xun's chin up with one finger and asked in a languid, dangerous voice, "Been running for so long. Tired yet?"
Ying Xun: "!!!"
