Edward Grant was originally the heir of the business branch of the second-ranked noble family, the Xuan family. His father, Charles Grant, was the successor to the family head and the number one genius among the younger generation of the Xuan family.

When Edward Grant was five years old, Charles Grant was cruelly framed by his younger brother Arthur Grant, expelled from the family, and hunted by assassins sent by Arthur Grant.

For five years, Edward Grant followed Charles Grant, fleeing for hundreds of thousands of miles, and finally settled and took root in the Divine Blade Dynasty, a remote land on the vast continent of Shenzhou.

Charles Grant was gravely injured, his meridians completely severed, almost reduced to a cripple. Edward Grant also suffered damage to his meridians, which greatly affected his martial cultivation.

The harshness of reality could not cool the burning blood in Edward Grant's heart. He vowed to seek revenge against Arthur Grant, and thus joined the Heavenly Sword Sect, one of the four great sects of the Divine Blade Dynasty, becoming an outer disciple.

At the age of fourteen, on the night of the full moon in mid-August, Edward Grant accidentally obtained a small white jade sword in the Hidden Sword Valley on the outer peaks of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

From then on, Edward Grant was reborn, and his comprehension and cultivation of the sword advanced by leaps and bounds, making him an unprecedented peerless genius in the way of the sword.
