Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation, you become the outermost bottom of the sect. Everyone wants to bully someone and gain some benefits, but fortunately there are always some junior brothers and sisters who are "generous" and "considerate", so that we can make steady progress and become stronger secretly. Many years later. Without anyone noticing, you successfully became a deity in the sect. On this day, the sect sent your master here. "The sect's leaders think that you have been in the sect for many years, have been law-abiding and loyal, and although your strength is average, you are an honest man, so they found a marriage for you." "A marriage of alliance?" "Not really. The other family has a rule that if you marry them, you have to take their surname." Is this... being a son-in-law?

Long Chen, a crippled youth who cannot cultivate, is constantly targeted and bullied by his fellow noble heirs. After a particularly vicious beating, he wakes up and realizes a Pill God’s soul has somehow merged with him, giving him additional memories. Among those memories is the mysterious “Nine Star Hegemon Body Art”, a cultivation technique even he can train in, but its secrets and origin are still a mystery to him. Relying on his improved instincts as he finally begins to cultivate, he realizes a huge conspiracy is underfoot within the Phoenix Cry Empire, one involving his father, the members of the imperial family, and even the emperor himself.

In order to solve the mysteries around him, he must rely on his new alchemy techniques and the powerful but baffling Nine Star Hegemon Body Art. Countless enemies block him as he attempts to climb to the peak of the cultivation world.

His destined fate was to only be a chess piece, but he will not bow to the will of the Heavens.
