In his previous life, Ye Yunfei had once been the pride of his clan—a prodigy with limitless potential. But fate played a cruel trick on him. Overnight, the martial veins in his body sealed shut, and the young genius who once stood above his peers became someone who couldn’t practice martial arts at all. What followed was humiliation from his own family, betrayal from the fiancée he trusted with his life, and the relentless pursuit of rival clans eager to see him fall.
One by one, everything he cared about was stripped away. Friends who had laughed with him were bullied because of him, the woman he loved left him in sorrow, and even his father met a tragic end. For the young Ye Yunfei, whose world had collapsed in an instant, all hope seemed lost—until the day he was discovered by the passing Purple Saint True Monarch.
Under the True Monarch’s guidance, the broken youth rose once more. Through hardship and perseverance, he eventually climbed to the very peak of the martial world, becoming the youngest Heavenly Emperor in all of history. But even at that height, destiny struck again. During his tribulation, he was ambushed and fell—not to death, but into rebirth.
He opened his eyes and found himself returned to the moment when everything had gone wrong in his first life. This time, however, he carried inside him a remnant of his former soul—the full memory, wisdom, and scars of a Heavenly Emperor.
Faced with the same familiar faces—family who once doubted him, friends who had suffered for him, the fiancée who had betrayed him, and the rivals who wanted him dead—Ye Yunfei made a different choice. Instead of despair, he chose to begin anew.
This world respected power above all else, and Ye Yunfei understood its rules better than anyone. With a thousand years of experience behind him, his cultivation soared, and he soon guided both his clan and his sect to rapid growth. Just as peace began to return, the iron hooves of foreign invaders stormed the continent. Ye Yunfei rose to the challenge, leading armies to defend their homeland with unwavering determination.
But the path of martial arts is endless. After securing his homeland, he once again set out to seek the next realm, determined to surpass the limits of his previous life and rise to the heavens as a true Emperor.
For this time, he will live his youth without regret.
