The Heavenly Dao is fickle—a phrase he had heard all his life. Only after that incident did Adrian truly understand the meaning behind those words. From having it all—wealth, power, prestige—to nothing at all. Even his fiancée abandoned him. On the Floating Cloud Continent, the House of Thorne, one of the Twelve Great Houses, was reduced to rubble and dead bodies after a mysterious attack by the Demonic Faction. All that remained was a blood-soaked pendant and a broken future. That is, until his blood awakens the pendant, unleashing a dazzling light. When he regains consciousness, his pursuers are gone—but so is the life he once knew. Now, with only his younger brother and a loyal servant girl by his side, Adrian ventures into the night. Armed solely with the mysterious pendant and the inheritance it holds, he must walk the path of cultivation. Can he rebuild the House of Thorne from the ashes? Will he uncover the traitor who aided the demonic faction? He won't stop until even the heavens know his name and fear it. Please share your opinions with comments and reviews.
