Note: This story is all about Wei Wuxian's journey as a rogue cultivator. A perfect canon divergence which I feel the original author would also have followed if she chose some other fate for our MC. The story has perfect amount of angst, drama,romance and thrill. A wonderful effort by the author and I enjoyed it a lot. Don't miss this one.
