One Way or Another Plot (Synopsis via Bilibili)

Having traversed countless green hills, yet the man remains youthful. Suddenly turning back, the sword that just left his brow now resides in his heart.

In the secluded mountain village of the Chaotian Continent, Jing Jiu unexpectedly takes in Liu Shisui, a natural-born Daoist prodigy, as his page. By chance, the two make their way to the Qing Sect, but their arrival stirs controvers.

After all, how could the seemingly ordinary Jing Jiu have the exceptionally talented Liu Shisui as his servant?

At the Sword Inheritance Ceremony, Jing Jiu also meets Zhao Layue, the enigmatic girl from Shenmo Peak.

Unusually lazy, Jing Jiu simply wishes to cultivate in peace, unaware that fate is about to entangle the trio in the vast turmoil of the martial world… Beneath the vast expanse, is Qing Mountain far? Not far.
