TL;DR
After saving his master from a dark sect, Wu Ying is gravely injured: his body changes, his bloodline awakens and his cultivation is compromised. His home sect's healers cannot help, so he travels to another sect while the dark sect keeps pursuing him (publisher blurb; tagline 'Not All Injuries Heal True').
