The Empress Ordered My Death, So I Became an Eighth-Rank Martial Sage and Supreme Swordmaster

Sword qi soars thirty thousand miles, one sword's light chills nineteen provinces!

Li Ran transmigrates to the Kaiyuan Continent and guards the passage to the Underworld for ten years. When his term is up, the empress inexplicably sentences him to death from the start.

His Martial Dao System activates. He immediately advances to an Eighth-Rank Martial Saint, gains supreme swordsmanship, and slays an enforcer from the Martial Emperor Palace.

He also spirits away the Holy Maiden and ninety-nine young talents, then founds the Imperial Palace.

A Chaos Green Lotus gives Imperial Palace members ten times the cultivation speed.

An immortal-grade mountain gate, with ten times the concentration of primordial energy.

Flying Immortal Beyond the Heavens, a god-tier show-off skill that makes him invincible among those at the same level.

Divine weapons and god-tier cultivation techniques are standard issue at the Imperial Palace.

The Sword Sect, Zen Sect, Demon Sect, Dao Sect, and Sacred Lands all become talent pools for the Imperial Palace.

Li Ran storms the Martial Emperor Palace. "Have the empress swear a Martial Dao oath to become my maid and serve at my side for life. Then I'll let bygones be bygones. Otherwise..."

The empress: "Your servant pays her respects to her master!"

Li Ran: "Holy Maiden? You should call her Mistress!"
