A fair, jade-like hand pressed lightly, and the person within the coffin sat up.
His skin was as flawless as jade, and he was strikingly handsome. He had a neat mustache on his upper lip, and his black hair was tied up in a style reminiscent of a Daoist or an Alchemist. While his appearance gave no clue to his age, the depths of his dark, tranquil eyes held a weariness that spoke of countless years.
He wore a Western-style suit from the Republican era, giving him a strange, blended aura of antiquity, youth, and retro fashion.
This man was the true "Alchemist"—the ancient being who first discovered Penglai Immortal Mountain, one of the Sleepers who spent long years in slumber.
The one Yi Beidou had killed on Penglai Immortal Mountain was merely this man's descendant and Daoist Child, who had walked the world in his name as the Alchemist.
