Sky Pride
What does it take to climb out of the trash and into the sky?
The very heavens had decreed his death. He should have died in the womb. Or in infancy. Or when his family was murdered. Or when the house burned around him. Or when he woke up in the dump suffering from innumerable diseases and missing fingers. Even the magic ring with a ghostly grandpa trapped inside of it was sabotaged. A reasonable person would roll over and die. Tian isn’t that reasonable. And as it happens, neither is Grandpa Jun. In a world where immortality can be cultivated, miracles are things you make for yourself. A broken boy will defy the heavens, and soar.
What to expect:
-1 chapter a day M-F. Volume 3 is already complete.
