Curator note

The Kunlun Sect is a classic minor sect in various martial arts novels. This sect has produced cannon fodder, classic martial arts, and divine weapons and famous medicines, but it has never produced a protagonist. Wang Qing only discovered the tragedy after he went up Kunlun Mountain. Other sects have hundreds of millions of players, but Kunlun only has two or three. How are we supposed to compete? While other sects were making their way in and out of the battlefield, I was stuck on the mountain reading books and drawing talismans, unable to even fight any monsters. My younger sister is a troubled girl who hides in Miao territory raising snakes and making venom, but I can't come down the mountain and can't fulfill my responsibility as her older brother to discipline her. My parents are living like immortals in Wudang, completely oblivious to their children's fate. Well, okay, that's fine. I only went to Kunlun to escape my parents. This is the story of a repressed young man who, before going mad from being stifled, is finally released back into the wild and allowed to wreak havoc on the martial arts world.
