Li Jun was cast out of his family after his father's death. Bullied by his cousins and robbed by his uncle, his upbringing was less than pleasant. Despite that, Li Jun tried his best to live a quiet life; he kept to himself and worked hard to earn a living.

However, fate dealt a cruel blow when a vicious attack left him unable to work again. Li Jun fell into despair. It was only through the selfless sacrifice of his devoted mother that a glimmer of redemption emerged as she sold off her final sliver of wealth to afford him a chance at a better life.

Just when all seemed lost, a mysterious silver ring, seemingly tossed from the hands of celestials, descended from the heavens. Upon receiving the celestial gift, Li Jun's life took a surprising turn.

As the layers of deceit peeled away, Li Jun found himself thrust into a web of lies that began to unravel before him. Compelled to untangle the enigmatic circumstances surrounding his father's demise and the orchestrated misfortunes that befell him, Li Jun strode on through the world of cultivation as the heavens trembled at his feet. He had seen a whisper of despair and vowed to never glance upon it again.

The Black Star Monarch

"Take it." Zhu Ru Shi said. She held out a delicate hand and, in her palm, presented a dark gray pill. The pills he was used to were white and pure looking; the gray made it almost seem dirty by comparison.

"A new type of poison. It's part of our deal, remember. If you don't want me to kick you out, take it." She said.

Li Jun sighed. 'Why is she so insistent that I take it? I don't even know what it is.'

"Can you at least tell me the ingredients?" He asked, wanting to air on the side of caution. Although she seemed friendlier now that she wasn't overseeing the sect examination, he still didn't trust her. Only an idiot would take a pill without knowing what it would do to them. If he knew what it was made from, he could guess the effects if he was familiar with the ingredients.
