—————
As the leader of the first Demonic Cult in the underground world of martial arts and cultivation, Tianning Cult, Han Changsheng carried on the long-standing tradition of an unstable mind and a refusal to seek any treatment.
Originally, his life should have passed by quickly and simply, but one day he kicked a descended Immortal Lord off a cliff. In order to make up for this mistake, he must aid the Immortal Lord in ascending back to his position… but why does this mistake keep growing? Hey, Lao zi doesn’t need you as a younger brother, you should look for An Yuan! Don’t chase after Lao zi, you’re destined to be An Yuan’s wife! Don’t worship Lao zi as a martial arts lord, lao zi is the genuine leader of the Demonic Cult! Hey, Hey Lao zi is obviously the major villain! What the hell are you doing?!
