The martial arts practitioners chased them all the way to the bustling main street. They never paid any attention to ordinary people, and the civilians were thrown into chaos. Swords and blades have no eyes, and many people were accidentally injured. In this chaotic situation, the man who injured Fang Zhiyi suddenly went berserk, drawing his sword and slashing wildly. Several civilians fell to his sword in an instant. After going berserk, the man's strength increased greatly, and the other martial arts practitioners could not subdue him. After a fight, he injured several people and collapsed from exhaustion. His companions carried him and quickly fled, leaving behind the innocent civilians who had been injured or killed, crying and wailing.

Although Fang Zhiyi was a local thug, he knew that if it weren't for his neighbors, he would have starved to death long ago. From this moment on, Fang Zhiyi's mind was filled with hatred, and he wanted to take revenge.

It sounds ridiculous that a local ruffian would try to venture into the martial arts world. Fang Zhiyi was in his early twenties and had no martial arts background. He went to great lengths to find those famous and righteous sects, but was turned away and even ridiculed and driven away by their disciples. Penniless and dejected, Fang Zhiyi walked on the road and fainted at an intersection. It was here that he began his journey in the martial arts world.

A member of the Zhetian Sect named Wang Ergou passed by and, seeing his pitiful state, took him back to the branch. When Fang Zhiyi woke up, he learned that he had been taken to a branch of the so-called Demonic Sect, but he was not alarmed; instead, he was overjoyed.

He stayed and took on odd jobs. The Zhetian Sect was unconventional and easygoing. Under Wang Ergou's tutelage, Fang Zhiyi learned some basic martial arts. He worked harder than anyone else and changed his carefree attitude. His perseverance caught the attention of the branch leader. After learning about his grudge, the branch leader personally taught him martial arts, and Fang Zhiyi's strength greatly improved.

Persistence pays off; Wang Ergou learned about the group's origins through the Zhetian Sect's intelligence network.

That was Jiang Gucheng, who had risen to fame in the martial arts world. Behind him was the renowned Jiang family of Jiangnan. However, it was said that Jiang Gucheng was ill and had demonic blood in his body. Once he went mad, he would not be able to distinguish friend from foe.

However, Wang Ergou advised him that he couldn't afford to offend the Jiang family, and the headquarters wouldn't agree to them clashing with Jiang Gucheng.

Fang Zhiyi gritted his teeth and nodded. He knew he was no match for them, so he began to make his own plans.

First, he framed Jiang Gucheng and others, orchestrating the whole thing step by step. Jiang Gucheng's reputation was also affected, and everyone in the martial arts world believed that he had killed the highly respected Elder Tianji. After all, it was not surprising that Jiang Gucheng, driven by demonic blood, would do such a thing.

Then came the spread of rumors that Jiang Gucheng possessed the wordless book of the Heavenly Mystery Elder, which, if obtained, would grant him the power to command all heroes. In an instant, the entire martial arts world was in an uproar. Fang Zhiyi knew what would happen next; no one in the martial arts world didn't want to be number one. Jiang Gucheng and his group also found themselves in trouble, constantly being hunted down by people who wanted to obtain the non-existent wordless book.

Jiang Gucheng's accomplices also seemed to be having a run of bad luck. Some were involved in a family annihilation case, while others were accused of robbing and killing their fellow disciples. They were in a state of chaos. Of course, Fang Zhiyi was not capable of committing these crimes. He merely used his expertise to spread rumors, making some unsolved cases sound vivid and credible, and then waiting for these rumors to spread on their own.

Jiang Gucheng was incredibly resilient. He escaped danger time and time again during conflicts. Even when he was being chased, he jumped off a cliff to save his confidante and unexpectedly obtained a secret manual. When he returned, Jiang Gucheng had mastered his skills and realized that someone was framing him. So he began to settle scores with those who had chased him. As he investigated, Fang Zhiyi was exposed to them.

Fang Zhiyi chose to flee overnight to avoid implicating the Zhetian Sect, but she was never able to escape the pursuit of Jiang Gucheng and others.

Jiang Gucheng had long forgotten about that petty thug. Looking at the small-time crook in front of him, whom he could kill with a flick of his finger, Jiang Gucheng asked, "Why did you frame me?"
