Wuxia: Killing Ye Gucheng from the Start at the Summit of the Forbidden City

Geniuses rise in droves, and martial arts reign supreme. Celestial masters scorn the imperial throne; earthly immortals look down upon the world. The strong clash, great nations stand side by side, dynasties vie for supremacy, and war breaks out everywhere.

Atop the Forbidden City's highest tower in the Ming capital,

two peerless swordsmen of the Ming Dynasty, disdainful of imperial authority, agreed to duel, setting the martial world abuzz.

But Ye Gucheng's true purpose was not to cross swords. He was after the reigning Ming Emperor, Zhu Youtang.

A sword came from the west, a celestial flying beyond the heavens. At the height of the duel, Ye Gucheng suddenly changed his move, turning his sword toward the emperor.

Everyone was stunned.

Zhu Chen arrived after transmigrating with a God-Tier Choice System.

From the start, he chose to save the Ming Emperor. With the power of a celestial master, he crushed Ye Gucheng with a wave of his hand and forced Ximen Chuixue into his service.

After personally executing Ye Gucheng, he rose step by step, becoming the ruler of the martial world, then emperor of the court, unifying the realm and conquering the world.
