Disillusionment

Under the red walls of Xiao Mansion in Qingzhou lies the darkest secret of young Xiao Meng - he has been haunted by evil sycophants since he was a child, and has become a "freak" in the eyes of the world. His family forbids him from practicing martial arts in the name of "martial waste". Children's stones and ridicules are the lingering background of his childhood. When he was ten years old, the only aunt who had a glimpse of his alchemy talent was brutally executed by the family for helping him secretly sell elixirs. When the blood stained the bluestone, his grandmother protected him under her wings, but she could not protect him from the growing hatred in his heart. He began to secretly practice martial arts in the middle of the night. The candlelight reflected the cold light on the martial arts books. In the severe pain of the evil spirit, every inch of his muscles and bones were tempering the edge of revenge. At the age of twelve, his title as "Reserve Clan Leader" was accidentally dropped. He didn't know that this was a scam in which his life was sacrificed - three years later, he would be sacrificed in exchange for the so-called prosperity of the Xiao family. The calculations of his mistress and the hidden arrows of other reservers formed an airtight web, but he found glimmers of light in desperate situations: he met the clear-eyed Lin Ruo'er, befriended Mu Dongcan, who shared life and death, and formed an old acquaintance with his cousin Ye Mi, and his martial arts gradually improved. On the eve of the Qingyue Festival, the Xiao Mansion collapsed overnight, and the fire dyed the Qingzhou night sky red. Xiao Meng escaped by chance, looked at the corpses all over the house, clutched the name "Xiao Huankai" newly given by her family, and turned around to find her brother. The evil spirit in the body is still surging, but it has long since been transformed from a curse into a trump card. The "freak" who was once trampled in the dust will eventually write his own revenge legend in the world with blood as ink.
