After the Villain Lost His Cultivation

Xi Jianglan, the top playboy of the Thirteen Provinces, lived a life of privilege, indulging in extravagance and excess. He had offended countless powerful figures, but with the protection of his family, he continued to act lawlessly. Until one day, the entire Xi family was slaughtered. Xi Jianglan was the only survivor, losing all his cultivation and becoming a frail, sickly figure who coughed up blood every three steps. Xi Jianglan fell from grace overnight, and his sworn enemies eagerly seized the opportunity to kick him while he was down, scrambling to exact their revenge. Through a mixture of spinning lies, pretending to be mad, and playing the fool, Xi Jianglan successfully hid his identity and barely survived. Until one day, when a powerful figure he couldn’t remember offending held a sword to his throat, Xi Jianglan quickly came up with a plan and started talking nonsense.. “Sheng Jiao is madly in love with me!

If you hurt me, you will suffer the consequences!” Sheng Jiao: “…” Sheng Jiao sheathed his sword, his expression calm as he said, ”Is that so?”
