Xu Mu, the crown prince of the Great Liang Dynasty, is The Outcast, a pitiful soul second only to one and superior to all others.
When he was eight, disaster struck Great Liang’s northern frontier as the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons and Northern Wei launched a massive invasion.
At the critical moment, eight-year-old Xu Mu volunteered to go to Mount Xumi in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons as a hostage in exchange for Great Liang’s safety.
In the blink of an eye, the ten-year term had come to an end. He had thought that after returning, he would be able to enjoy the happiness of reuniting with his family.
Instead, he was repeatedly met with cold stares.
The officials said he had no sense of shame and was uncouth.
His younger brother paid him no regard whatsoever.
His parents even intended to pass the crown prince’s position to his younger brother.
Reborn, Xu Mu declared, “The heir to the throne? Who wants it!”
He abandoned his identity as the crown prince and awakened the God-Tier Emperor System, then set off alone for the desolate lands of the northern frontier.
But they came to regret it, begging and weeping for him to return.
