Severing Time & Space, Volume 2

Victory should have been the beginning of Wu Jian's rise—so why does it feel like the start of his downfall?

Riding the high of his triumph in the Three Clans Tournament, Wu Jian finally earns the recognition he's always craved. Not only does he have the respect of his clan, but there are two girls whose bonds with him have deepened through every trial and tribulation: the mischievous and devoted Wu Meiying, who would defy fate itself for him, and the proud yet vulnerable Hou Jingshu, who is only just beginning to understand what it means to love. Even Zhou Lihua, the mysterious jade beauty of the Zhou Clan has taken an interest in him.

But power draws enemies even more quickly than it brings allies, and dark forces quietly gather their strength in the shadows to wipe the Wu Clan from existence.

Worse still, Wu Meiying—his closest companion—is plagued by nightmares and visions. She sees his death. The destruction of his clan. The end of everything he loves.

Wu Jian is not even a cultivator yet, but he must walk the tightrope between life and death, wade through political schemes, and navigate a world where showing even a hint of weakness is courting death.

To protect what he cherishes, Wu Jian must do the impossible—grow strong enough to change the future… or watch it all burn.
