Victory should have been the beginning of Wu Jian's rise-so why does it feel like the start of his downfall?
Riding the high of his triumph in the Three Clans Tournament, Wu Jian finally earns the recognition he's always craved.
But power draws enemies even more quickly than it brings allies. Assassins strike from within his own clan, a disgraced alchemist sets her sights on him, and rival families hidden in the shadows quietly gather their strength to wipe the Wu Clan from existence.
Worse still, Wu Meiying-his closest companion-is plagued by nightmares and visions. She sees his death. The destruction of his clan. The end of everything he loves.
As danger closes in, Wu Jian is forced to grow. He is not even a cultivator yet, but he must walk the tightrope between life and death, wade through political schemes, and navigate a world where showing even a hint of weakness is courting death.
Yet he is not alone. At his side are two girls whose bonds with him deepen after every trial: the mischievous and devoted Wu Meiying, who would defy fate itself for him, and the proud yet vulnerable princess Hou Jingshu, who is only just beginning to understand what it means to love.
And with a mysterious beauty from the powerful Zhou Clan entering his life, Wu Jian's love life is about to become more complicated than he can handle.
To protect what he cherishes, Wu Jian must do the impossible-grow strong enough to change the future... or watch it all burn.
