Nangong Mi was once a disciple of the Nangong Family.
But now, he was a fugitive of the Nangong Family.
He had absorbed power from his companions and escaped with the cultivation techniques from the Nangong Family. So now, he had traveled all the way to the East Continent to hide.
He has been in hiding for a hundred years now.
He was always very discreet whenever he absorbed the blood and essence of others.
And after the absorption was completed, he would clear all his traces and went back to lurking in the shadows.
When he saw the chaos in Zhongzhou, Nangong Mi took the opportunity to return to Zhongzhou to absorb more cultivators' blood and essence, rapidly improving his cultivation level.
At that time, he had also started accepting followers.
After a period of slow development, demons started arriving in the East Continent.
He took advantage of the chaos and returned to the East Continent too.
