Synopsis
"A group of people driven mad by society decide to use their 'belief' to change the injustice of fate. To cut through the endless darkness in life and usher in the dawn of their existence. But at the same time, their hearts are already dead. Their lives are like those of 'corpses', existing to stand up against all the injustices in the world! This is 'Xiao'." “晓”

Chapter 1 - Dawn

Xiao. Also called Po Xiao. It means to cut through endless darkness and usher in eternal dawn. Just like life when it's trapped in boundless darkness. Self-belief, perseverance, and a shattered heart, a disfigured soul, become the blade that severs the darkness! Not everyone can change all the injustices in life. Some can control fate, some can be pulled up by others, some are born without needing to be tested, and some, once ashore, end up despising those at the bottom. The bottom dwellers, at the very lowest. They can spend their entire lives as stepping stones for the "people above." Their entire lives are only qualified to be trampled underfoot. Some, besides being trampled underfoot, also suffer endless humiliation, harm, and violent death! The more "people above," the more wronged souls. More than half of the so-called "people above" in this world have climbed to the top by bearing the weight of countless sacrifices. There are also some self-righteous people who may not have achieved great things in this world, but are indeed unforgivable demons! The way of heaven has its cycles; retribution will come! And "Xiao" is the embodiment of that retribution.
