For five hundred years, Gu Xiu suffered in the Forbidden Realm to secure the Sect's destiny. He returned with a crippled cultivation and a broken body, only to find his position usurped by a new "genius" Junior Brother.

His Master ignored him. His Senior Sisters despised him. The Sect treated him like a leech.

Realizing his devotion was meaningless, Gu Xiu signed the Sect Severance Treaty, cutting all ties and karma with the Qingxuan Sacred Land.

He left with nothing but his pride. But he also took something with him: The Sect's Providence (Luck).

Now, as Gu Xiu rebuilds his cultivation with ancient scriptures and defies the heavens, the Qingxuan Sect begins to crumble. Artifacts fail, heavenly tribulation strikes, and talents wither.

They finally realized their mistake. But when they came begging on their knees...

Gu Xiu only smiled coldly. "It is too late."
