Chu Kuangsheng is the son of the Chu family patriarch in Shiyang, a remote town in the Shenlong Empire. Born weak and unable to cultivate, he is the butt of the whole town's jokes. His situation worsens after his parents vanish on official duty and his sister, the likely heir, falls to a strange illness. When he is hurt in an ambush, he inherits his family's ancestral technique, repairs his broken meridians and begins to advance quickly. Outwardly he still seems weak, but he is also Kuangzun, a figure famous across the martial world. Suspecting that collusion inside the clan is tied to his parents' disappearance, he uses that second identity to quietly build connections, gather strength and dig for information. The result is a fantasy action adventure built around one face and two identities.
