"Within reincarnation, all is destiny. Beneath karma, all is reincarnation..."
Su Mo left the Phoenix Nest in a daze. "How can I break free of all this?"
It seemed he had never escaped destiny.
It had been so in the Nine Heavens back then, so in the world's Third Heaven, and remained so now that he had returned to the Nine Heavens.
