The Princes of Great Zhou

On the Chen Yuan Continent, in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Fifteen years ago, a calamity of demons and ghosts reduced the vast Marquis Anwu's residence to a wasteland overnight. More than a thousand people in the entire household were slaughtered by armored soldiers who stormed in.

Only one young illegitimate son survived, protected at the cost of the whole household's lives and escorted to safety by two family retainers...

Xiao Han was unlucky. After years of hard work, he had climbed into society's elite by the age of thirty, only to be swept into an ancient world he had never even heard of by a sudden disaster.

He had been celebrating transmigrating into a noble family. Though an illegitimate son, he would still have enough to eat and wear, and could at least live as a carefree young lord. Little did he know that a sudden upheaval would reduce his new home to a blank wasteland.

Not only could he no longer live a life of luxury, he even had to worry about whether he would have anything to eat next...

Since he couldn't rely on his birth, he would have to fight for everything himself.

He trained in martial arts, joined the frontier army, and fought bandits, climbing step by step from the ranks of the common soldiers until he became a Martial Marquis, second only to one man and above thousands.

He ate the emperor's food and used the emperor's resources, then tricked the emperor's daughter. He would make the lofty emperor taste the pain of a royal family without affection.

This is a story of struggle, and a story of revenge.
