Cao Tianzheng is the only male disciple left in Shenjing Sect, a once-great Daoist sect now fallen into decline in China. On the orders of his sect's eldest senior sister, he descends the mountain to reclaim the fortune and spiritual power his sect granted to five powerful clans sixty years ago. But some ungrateful wretches not only refuse to honor their contract and repay their debt, they take advantage of Shenjing Sect's decline and brazenly tear it up. Worse still, they even plot to kill Cao Tianzheng so they can keep Shenjing Sect's fortune and spiritual power for themselves!
Thus begins Cao Tianzheng's path to seizing fortune, amassing wealth, avenging wrongs, eliminating evil, and dominating the city!
Penniless from the start? This Daoist priest can heal the sick, refine divine pills, forge spirit weapons, and brew miraculous medicines. Money and fame will come pouring in!
Evil runs rampant? This Daoist priest is ruthless: I kill, but I don't clean up afterward!
The five powerful clans broke their promises? No problem! This Daoist priest will take your money, power, and fortune. If I don't leave you bankrupt and your families in ruins, I'll have failed to live up to the nickname you gave me: “Cao the Thief Who Takes Three Times”!
The five clans broke off their engagements and threw me out? No problem! With my Pure Yang Dragon Physique, I'll dual-cultivate with your clan's matriarch and reach the Nascent Soul Realm in a single leap. My former fiancées will regret it and beg to become my concubines!
I, Cao Tianzheng, have mastered alchemy, talismans, medicine, and martial arts. I can steal fortune or bestow it, take lives or save them. I remember both kindness and grudges, and repay every slight. I swear to restore my sect's former glory and become the domineering, peerless powerhouse who stands above all under heaven!
