The current Galactic Emperor is lecherous and tyrannical. After three failed campaigns against the Baishan Federation, he embarked on massive construction projects to make it seem as though all was well. Within the court, both the Qianqi family, whose members held the rank of marshal, and the Li family, whose members served as chancellors, coveted the empire's supreme power. Among the people, too, there was widespread resentment toward the emperor. On top of that, famine struck several planets, leaving people displaced, gaunt, and starving. Taking advantage of the situation, the Yellow Heaven Sect rose up and raised the banner of rebellion on behalf of all the people, bringing the threat right to the empire's heartland, the star regions near the Solar System. Then, news suddenly emerged of the legacy of the first emperor, who had founded the Galactic Empire. Seeking immortality, His Majesty dispatched his right-hand man, Grand Marshal Qianqi Xingming, to a remote star region in search of the imperial legacy. Thus begins a grand historical saga.
Perhaps there is no emperor in this world, or perhaps everyone is an emperor. Prosperity, decline, ruin, and renewal: the aged empire has now entered the stage of decline. When the cycle begins anew and someone takes charge of the realm, who will it be?
