Traditional Xuanhuan Cultivation and Power Progression

Ji Jiuchu was born into an ordinary farming family in ancient times. He was a premature baby, frail and sickly, and said to be unlikely to live past twenty. It wasn't until an unexpected incident when he was thirteen that Ji Jiuchu learned this wasn't an ordinary feudal dynasty. It was a fantasy cultivation world where people could train in the ways of the Dao. To save his life, his childhood friend from next door, Rong Ji, resolutely decided to take him along on the seemingly hopeless path of cultivation. * Rong Ji had loved hugging him ever since they were little, like a big dog, unconsciously rubbing his head against the hollow of Ji Jiuchu's neck. Ji Jiuchu simply thought that, having lost both his parents as a child, Rong Ji lacked a sense of security. Later, Rong Ji's eyes reddened slightly.

A master once said this was because he was missing a soul, so Grandpa Ji arranged a betrothal for him while he was still a child. His betrothed was the master's youngest disciple. Ji Sui'an: "..." He suspected his grandfather had been swindled. He had never taken the matter seriously, but at twenty-five, a young man stopped him outside the Ji Group building. He wore a ragged yet clean patchwork robe, carried a peachwood sword on his back, and had a string of copper coins at his waist. His face was exceptionally fair and clear, and his limpid eyes gazed at Ji Sui'an as he said something astonishing: "Hello, I'm Xuan Zhu. I believe I'm your fiance." * Only when his master was on his deathbed did Xuan Zhu learn that he had a childhood betrothal. He didn't have any particular feelings about it, but he went to find the other party as promised. Later, Xuan Zhu realized that Ji Sui'an's presence was especially soothing.
