The Terminally Ill Young Master of the Baek Clan follows Baek Yigang, the youngest heir of the prestigious Baek Clan, cursed with the Taiyin Qi Blockage — a rare condition that prevents him from cultivating internal energy and limits his lifespan. After living a quiet, sheltered life, Yigang’s world changes when he is attacked by a group of masked assassins. During the ambush, Yigang’s loyal servant sacrifices herself to protect him. Forced to fight for his survival, Yigang picks up a rusted sword, awakening a hidden power that connects him to the forgotten history of his clan.
In Chapter 54, Yigang’s survival instincts and latent abilities surfaced as he fought off the assassins. His use of a forgotten Baek Clan technique left the attackers stunned, hinting at a mysterious power tied to his bloodline. Chapter 55 is expected to explore Yigang’s growing strength and the true identity of the masked attackers, while revealing the motives behind the attempt on his life.
Plot of The Terminally Ill Young Master of the Baek Clan

Baek Yigang, the frail youngest heir of the Baek Clan, was born with the Taiyin Qi Blockage, a rare condition that limits his lifespan and prevents him from cultivating internal energy. Unable to match the strength of his peers, Yigang resigned himself to a quiet life within the clan’s walls.
Yigang’s life takes a violent turn when masked assassins infiltrate the Baek Clan estate, targeting him directly. His loyal servant sacrifices herself to protect him, forcing Yigang to flee through a hidden underground passage. Cornered with no escape, Yigang picks up a rusted sword embedded in the ground, triggering a surge of energy that unlocks a hidden power within him.
In Chapter 54, Yigang’s newly awakened strength allowed him to repel the attackers using forgotten Baek Clan techniques. Chapter 55 is expected to uncover more about the origins of Yigang’s power and the identity of the forces seeking to control his Taiyin Qi. As Yigang navigates the dangers within and beyond the clan, he must uncover the truth behind his curse and his connection to the clan’s ancient legacy.
