Zhou Wei led his Black Kirin Army, determined to rebel against Chu.
The catalyst for the event was Zhou Wei's adopted son and trusted general, Zhou Pu, who succeeded in obtaining the legendary exotic treasure, the Three Talents Mysterious Fruit, presenting an opportunity for a great advancement in cultivation.
However, the matter was leaked, and the ruler of the Later Chu Dynasty became aware of it, leading to suspicion.
During Zhou Wei's secret retreat for cultivation, the Later Chu Dynasty hunted down Zhou Wei, Zhou Pu's trusted generals and relatives, searching for Zhou Wei's retreat.
Faced with danger in the army, Zhou Pu acted swiftly, leading the Black Kirin Army to break through the siege.
Yet, Zhou Wei and Zhou Pu's other relatives far away in the Later Chu Imperial Capital were mostly captured and killed.
By the time Zhou Wei later achieved Perfection and emerged from retreat, he resolved to rebel against Chu.
