Wu Jian comes from a small clan eking out a living in the countryside. Despite being the clan heir, he is bullied for being cowardly and weak. In a world where the strength of a person's cultivation determines their lot in life, weakness is not allowed, and those who possess it are often stamped out.

But Wu Jian doesn't want to remain weak. He doesn't want to stay a coward. He wants to be strong.

Witness the rise of one young man who, with the help of his childhood friend, will face adversity, forge new bonds of love and friendship, and gain the strength needed to protect his loved ones and find meaning in his life.

It all begins here.

[Disclaimer: This is an addictive, slow-burn harem story about a hard-working protagonist who wants to get stronger for the people he loves. If you're sick and tired of reading the same old cultivation stories about OP MCs who never work for their power, this novel will give you new life. You will laugh, cry, scream kawaii, and probably curse the author every so often. Prepare for everything from slice-of-life to action/adventure to epic battles and political machinations and everything in-between!]

Severing Time & Space

Wu Jian did not remain in Mencho after that. He spent the night at the inn with Yu Qiang, then made his way back to Imperial Shang City. It took two days of traveling at full speed to reach the capital. Wu Jian had tried to see if Yōuměi wanted to come out of his shadow, but the black panther refused to emerge even when he called for her. He could tell she was okay since they were connected via his shadow. However, she wasn’t responding to his calls. 


They reached the Shang Kingdom capital, walked through the city, and eventually came upon the Shang Kingdom Imperial Academy. 


“I need to see the head elder,” Yu Qiang said. “I have to inform him of what happened on our way here.” 


“I’m going to find Jingshu and let her know I’ve returned,” Wu Jian said. 


The other man nodded. “I’ll come find you when I’m done. I should have your Inner Court Disciple robes.”
