One Sword to Split the Firmament [Reborn]

Everyone said the Yan family’s young master was a worthless stone. But when he finally stood before them, they realized he was an unrivaled pearl, dazzling enough to blind them all.

In his previous life, Yan Qing was jilted, had his spiritual root destroyed, watched his entire family slaughtered, and was thrown by his former fiancée into the Tianshu Court, where criminals were imprisoned. In a single moment, he was ground into dust.

Only after dying with a heart full of resentment did he discover that his life had been nothing but a book, and that he was a cannon-fodder character who died just one-fifth of the way into the story.

Reborn, Yan Qing is ruthless and merciless, and never lets an offense go unpunished. If someone gives him a single blow, he returns ten.

He seizes opportunities, treasures, and inheritances.

Since he won’t live past the first fifth of the plot anyway, so what if people call him arrogant and vicious, a spoiled young master who throws his family’s weight around?

With his limited time, breaking the legs of those scumbags is what matters.

“When you talk about the cultivation world’s number-one beauty, you have to mention Young Master Yan, who used to stay home all the time.”

“I saw him once. That figure... Even Ning Shuiyao, whom everyone calls a celestial maiden, looked ordinary beside him.”

Someone else scoffed. “Yan Qing is a venomous snake at heart. How could he compare with the kindhearted Fairy Ning? He isn’t even worthy of carrying her shoes!”

But when they finally laid eyes on Yan Qing, the venomous beauty whose name they cursed three times a day in their hearts, all they could say was, “He’s amazing!”
