Ren Lei is the fourth son of a minor noble family and the son of a concubine to boot. Being born a cripple, the only thing he has is beauty; beauty that caused him much suffering growing up in a house where no-one loved him.

As if that wasn't enough, he was about to be sold off in a political marriage to a woman who had everything he didn't, the Princess of the Ether Cloud City, full of not only beauty but with immense talent in profound cultivation. 

Refusing to submit to his fate, as a final act of rebellion, in a desperate bit to retake what little control he had over his own life, he chooses to consume poison and commit suicide.

However, the fates are not so kind to those that would try to change it. He survives but suffers from a strange condition that causes his soul to separate from his body. As he slowly loses the constrains of a physical body, he is forced to look at himself more closely and recognise who he truly is. Not only must he struggle against the destiny devised for him but also his true nature: a calamity whose howl will wipe the slate of an era clean, ushering in a new dark age.

The Wolf of a Dark Age

<p>The first thing one would see upon entering inside the gates of the Quan Estate was a garden with a gondola and a small pond off to one side. West from there were several large pagoda styled buildings that featured beautifully decorated boards that identified their function. Towards the east was what appeared to be training grounds, with a raised ring in the middle. The existence of stands all around it suggested that events such as martial tournaments were held there.  </p>

<p>Overall, the Quan Estate wasn't very big... Or that's what Yun Lei thought, but his opinion was skewed because of his upbringing. It wasn't even comparable to the Yun Estate, with the latter being nearly 10 times its size, and even the humble Ren Estate was nearly twice as big.  </p>
