Chen Yuan trusted his wife, his best friend, and the law. They repaid him with a frame-up and a cold grave. But death wasn't the end. Waking up in a world of immortals and demons, Chen Yuan realizes the rules have changed. Trust is a weakness. Power is the only currency. Watch as the betrayed corporate slave returns as a calculating cultivator who will crush anyone who stands in his way. In his first life, he trusted. In this life, he calculates. What happens when a man who has already lost everything discovers that his reincarnation was never an accident—and that his path has been written long before he was born?
