The Sorrows of Life

The date of departure had been set for three days later. Fang Xing decided to hide inside the Myriad Beasts Sect until then, but he didn't simply waste away the days and sought out every piece of information and gossip related to the old man Hu Qin he could. From this, he found out this old man was a bit of a legend in his own right.

Hu Qin had come from humble beginnings as an old man who'd been a street performer his entire life. He was poor and had achieved nothing but—during his late years—he chanced upon the full inheritance of a rogue cultivator and was finally able to step onto the path of cultivation. Despite being over fifty years old without any foundation, resources, or teachers to help guide the way, he was able to use nothing more than a mid-quality spirit manual left behind by that rogue cultivator to reach the heavens and achieve renown throughout Chufung.
