Yao Zhi, a junior sword cultivator of the Fuxuan Sect, went down the mountain with her senior brother to slay demons for the first time, but nearly mistook a person for a demon.
That wasn’t entirely her fault. The man was simply far too handsome, and fit the descriptions of demons in storybooks perfectly: demons often took the form of beautiful people to beguile their victims.
At first, Yao Zhi thought he was just an ordinary handsome man and set out to protect him. But when the beauty laid down a formation all by himself and killed more than a dozen demons in one move, Yao Zhi’s eyes went as wide as bells. He was that powerful!
Xie Sui studied under a hermit. After his master’s ascension, he wandered the mortal world to gain experience, hoping to become a carefree cultivator with no ties. But things didn’t go as planned. The moment he entered the world, he was caught up in a case involving missing villagers.
He had just finished coaxing information out of a little tree demon when a woman kicked the door open and pointed her sword at him.
Xie Sui: ?
Before he could figure out what was going on, he watched the sword tip aimed at him slowly shift toward the female demon beside him. Then the woman spoke to the tree demon: “You, don’t move.”
Xie Sui: A diversion?
Yao Zhi: That was close. I almost got it wrong.
Then she flung the handsome man right out the door.
Only later did Xie Sui learn that this woman, with her astonishing strength, was the one and only sword cultivator in the greatest sect under heaven to possess a natural sword bone, a prodigy among prodigies.
And only later did Yao Zhi learn that he, he, he, he was the grandmaster’s personal disciple!
The very grandmaster who had once destroyed his immortal bones to create a formation, wiped out the foundations of the demon race, and founded the Fuxuan Sect alongside the sect’s founding patriarch!
