Yan Zhuoming was a cultivation cauldron, but no one dared look down on him.
The reason was simple: he was blessed with good fortune.
His master held great power, and his disciple was exceptionally gifted.
Even Yan Zhuoming himself felt luckier than many of his fellow clansmen who were also cultivation cauldrons. He had loved ones who cherished him, and they all treated him with genuine affection.
Until one day...
His disciple, who had once admired him, said he disdained associating with a plaything like him.
His master, who had once doted on him, said he had only treated Yan Zhuoming well to use him for dual cultivation.
And everyone who had once shown him kindness began avoiding him.
Yan Zhuoming refused to settle. After finishing dual cultivation with his master, he left only the words, "Our master-disciple bond ends here," then disappeared from everyone's sight for good.
Rumor had it that the lofty Sword Venerable went mad that day and fought Yan Zhuoming's only young disciple. Both had bloodshot eyes, blaming each other for Yan Zhuoming's death.
No one knew who stopped fighting first that night. Afterward, the Sword Venerable went into seclusion, and the young disciple left the mountain.
The three people who had once lived together on Changting Peak were now dead or gone.
The warmth they once shared was no more.

After faking his death while gravely injured, Yan Zhuoming was found by the young sect master of the Medicine King Sect and became his bodyguard.
But despite the title, he barely had any work to do. It was practically a life of leisure.
When the master and disciple found Yan Zhuoming again, he was smiling as he told the young sect master of the Medicine King Sect, whom they didn't know:
"I love you."
