Five years ago, Lin Ming took the blame for his younger brother and was exiled to the Northern Frontier. There, he secretly awakened the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body and became the invincible Grand General of Tiance of the Great Xia. After completing his five-year sentence, he returned home, only to find that his parents, the Prince of Zhennan, had broken their promise out of favoritism, while his younger brother, Lin Yi, had stolen his achievements and taken his fiancée, Chu Yanran, for himself. Lin Ming decisively severed all ties with his family and exposed the truth about taking the blame at Lin Yi's wedding by presenting a recording stone. Upon discovering Lin Ming's true identity, Emperor Xia Junlin of Great Xia forcefully arranged a marriage between him and Princess Linglong. During the talent assessment, Lin Ming caused the Profound Heaven Orb to explode, but Lin Yuan and his son stubbornly convinced themselves that the display of talent belonged to Lin Yi, descending into a frenzy of self-deception.
