In the spring of year 6823 of the New Calendar, Lu Xuan, an unregistered resident of the Federation, hid outside a high school classroom and secretly learned a Cultivation Skill, embarking on the path of Cultivation.

On the same day, he returned home and had a dream, just as he always did. In the dream, he was in the Guardian Storage Room during the Spring and Autumn Period in Chinese history（770-481 BCE）, and the current Keeper of the Records was named Li Er, also known as Laozi.

Later, Lu Xuan dreamed that he became the succeeding Keeper of the Records, became Confucius's second teacher, became the senior brother of Zhang Daoling, the Ancestral Celestial Master, and became the honorary father of the First Emperor...

Even later, someone unearthed a roll of bamboo slips from the ground, on which an event was recorded.

[The eighteenth Keeper of the Records, Lu Xuan, his Sword Qi like a waterfall, assassinated Duke Huan of Qi in his bedchamber]

In the span of a thought, Lu Xuan returned to the Late Eastern Han Dynasty, appearing once more on the desolate mountain.


The moment he appeared, he saw the mother and daughter, Ao Xianzhi and Zhang Buyi, prostrate themselves, weeping with overwhelming joy.


Cao Mengde and the others were utterly dumbfounded, with no idea what had just occurred. Only Zhuge Kongming, Lu Nian, and Zhang Jiao had an inkling, realizing with a faint sense of dread that history itself had been altered.


'This old Daoist... he left and returned in the blink of an eye, and in that instant, the past was rewritten. Everything has changed!'


The expressions on the faces of the Immortal Mother and the Innocent Ancient Buddha were grim. The former forced a smile.


"Are you satisfied now, Fellow Daoist?"


"Not enough. Far from it," Lu Xuan said faintly. He gave a cold snort and once again stepped back into the River of Time, this time traveling a thousand years into the past.
