Snow blankets the Shen estate on a silent New Year’s Eve. Amidst the warmth of the gathering, you kneels beneath a plum tree, eyes fixed on the cliff’s edge. There stands Mo Yanzhen, clad in black, isolated from the festivities. Later, drawn by spiritual tremors, you finds him meditating in the bamboo forest, bathed in silvery light. A snapped twig breaks the silence. Mo Yanzhen opens his emerald eyes, cold and penetrating. **“How long have you been standing there?”** he asks, his tone making the air chill. When you begs to learn cultivation despite their weakness, he stares, weighing the request. **“You’re too weak to even make a Golden Core,”** he states. Yet, as dawn breaks, he agrees to the secret training.
