In this world, everyone awakens a sword spirit at the age of four. Appointed by the Heavenly Dao, the sword spirit is one's sole companion and beloved for life.
Everyone is cherished by heaven and earth, except Lu Xingchen, a child forsaken by the heavens.
As the clan leader's legitimate son, he was bound by his family from childhood, burdened with crushing pressure, and left unheard by everyone.
At four, when it was time to awaken his spirit, no sword spirit appeared. He became a lone star cursed by the Heavenly Dao, falling from the clouds into the mire.
His father went mad, his family looked on coldly, and his mother scarred herself protecting him, yet all the blame fell on him.
He nearly died time and again and repeatedly wanted to end his life, yet somehow held on until he left home at fourteen.
The world mocked him as a lowly speck, without a spirit or a destiny.
But no one knew he carried the strongest Chaos Sword, a power even the Great Dao feared.
The girl within the sword, Lu Xingci, had stayed by his side since he was four, helping him endure every dark moment.
She never asked him to bear some destined burden, never cared whether he was powerful. She simply accepted him, battered and bruised.
She was his only light.
With one heart and one mind, a sword rises, and Chaos light shines across the stars of eternity.
He bows to neither heaven nor the Dao. He accepts neither fate nor false affection.
To be born in accordance with destiny is heaven's will. To be born in defiance of heaven, that is who I, Lu Xingchen, am!
In this life, I will protect only Lu Xingci. If heaven and earth abandon me, then I shall become my own heaven and earth!
