Cold Blade, Reborn Bones

Lin Feng, an illegitimate son of the prestigious Lin clan, grew up in silence and obscurity. He had no claim to glory, no favor from his kin—only Su Wanyue, his childhood sweetheart who promised to stand by him forever. Content with a humble life, he chose to dull his edge and seek nothing but peace by her side. But human hearts are fickle, and wealth corrodes the soul. On the eve of their wedding, the woman he trusted with everything betrayed him—selling all his secrets to his legitimate elder brother in exchange for a chance at immortality. That night, blood soaked the Lin estate. His loving parents were slaughtered, every loyal servant fell, and the once-harmonious household became a living hell. The architects of this massacre were the very people he held dearest: his beloved, his own blood brother, and the elders who watched in cold silence. As flames consumed him and his body lay broken, Lin Feng awakened a dormant ancient meridian and inherited a forbidden cultivation art, clawing his way back from death's door. Rising from the ashes of his former self, he shed every trace of gentleness and naivety, leaving only a sharp, frozen resolve. From that day forward, the gentle bastard Lin Feng no longer existed—in his place stood a young man with bones of rebellion, treading a path soaked in blood. In a chaotic world of cultivation and political intrigue, he tempers his flesh, hones his soul, cuts through thorns, and defies fate itself. With every step, he grows stronger; with every step, he exacts his reckoning. When at last he ascends to the pinnacle, he will make every betrayer and tormentor kneel before him, drowning in regret for all eternity.
