Shattered Smile, Book 1 of The Immortals’ Mask - Jay Krauss

Before he reached the pinnacle of power, he was just a talented disciple with no hunger for greatness- only a quiet promise, and a path he never meant to stray from. He had a sharp mind, a relaxed spirit, and a place in the Shengu Sect- earned more through quiet dedication than burning ambition. His cultivation was anything but simple: his Void affinity demanded emotional control, even as the world around him refused to let him remain whole.
