The Taoist Heir

Ning Fan, the true heir who abandoned his family to train under a Taoist master for a decade, is reluctantly drawn back into the world he left. At a high-society matchmaking banquet, a former friend impersonates him and publicly accuses him of theft. Forced to defend his honor, Ning Fan reveals a humiliating contract of servitude, igniting conflicts and misunderstandings, most notably with Su Mujin. His sister, Ning Tianxue, intervenes to unveil his true, formidable identity. Armed with the city lord's decree and corporate power, Ning Fan systematically exposes the lies, defeats his scheming cousin, and reclaims his rightful place as the head of the Ning family, proving that the master has finally returned.
