THE STORY

About The Ancestor

The Immortal Ancestor stands on the verge of ascension, only to be held back by a mortal incarnation left behind in the human world. Investigating further, he discovers that this incarnation, Ethan Cross, is living a life of utter humiliation, abused and trampled by his wife Vanessa Lynn and her entire family. To sever this final attachment, the Ancestor gets into the mortal body himself. From that moment on, the pathetic live-in son-in-law reveals terrifying power and unmatched arrogance. Those who once mocked and oppressed him now kneel at his feet, trembling and begging for mercy. Watch as the Immortal Ancestor rewrites fate through a mortal shell and crushes all who stand before him.
