The Star Dragon Pact (A Hated One and a Fallen Genius Save Each Other)

Fifteen years old, and still without a spiritual root.

Mu Yao was already dejected, and then her childhood sweetheart, who had promised they would never leave each other, betrayed and humiliated her.

To break off their engagement, Mu Yao challenged her genius fiancé. By a stroke of luck, she wound up with the chance to join the Four Immortals Academy.

On the way up the mountain, she met a lost boy. At the brink of death, they drank each other's blood and formed a bond, becoming cultivation partners. Though they could only share a mixed, low-grade pseudo-spiritual root, it was a lifeline for Mu Yao.

After their bond was formed, Mu Yao finally entered the Four Immortals Academy as she had wished. She cultivated, studied, and lived boldly and freely. Many people hated her, and many admired her.

The boy watched from the sidelines with cool detachment, never making any demands. He was close to Mu Yao, yet somehow seemed far away.

Then Mu Yao's own spiritual root awakened. They broke their bond, and the boy left alone, but traces of him were everywhere. Mu Yao was far from him, yet somehow seemed close.

Then their great enemy arrived. Mu Yao rode alone to his rescue, crossing ten thousand miles. She gently brushed the blood from his face and softly said, "Don't be afraid. I'm here."

The rogue immortal Xinghong possesses power that reaches the heavens, endless transformations, and profound mastery of every art.

He is the greatest rogue cultivator in the Immortal Dynasty, unrivaled in his time, free and unrestrained, fearless and invincible.

But even the invincible can fail. Xinghong has never feared failure, because he can always win again. He thought he would spend his life carefree and unattached, never imagining that one day he would be unable to let go of the person he cared for most...
