Who Said a Warrior Can't Walk the Sword Dao? by Croc Slayer

Qin Guan is a formidable martial artist who has opened the eighth of the Heaven-Defying Ten Gates. Following his master’s orders, he descends the mountain to fulfill an arranged marriage with the Nan Family of Luyun City. The Nan Family sees him as a worthless cripple—someone born without a dantian who can never cultivate Spiritual Energy. Unwilling to marry their gifted daughter to him, they secretly substitute Nan Rou, the family’s gravely ill eldest daughter. They believe they have discarded two burdens at once. They are wrong. Qin Guan may be unable to cultivate like an ordinary cultivator, but the Heaven-Defying legacy he inherited allows him to accomplish the impossible: combining overwhelming martial power with the supreme Sword Dao. While the world dismisses him as a failure, Qin Guan quietly stands beyond the reach of those who ridicule him. The moment he finally draws his sword, every assumption about martial artists will be shattered. A martial artist who dares to cultivate the Sword Dao? Who gave him permission?
