From the start, Zhong Tianxiu was born into a wealthy and powerful family. His great-grandfather, a master cultivator, doted on him, his talented elder brothers protected him, and handsome maids attended to his every need. He was a winner from birth, and all he wanted was to enjoy a life of food, drink, and leisure.
But reality left him no choice but to take up the butcher’s knife and slaughter his way across the world. By the time he was done, no one remained standing. All the people of the world lay prostrate at his feet in submission.
So Zhong Tianxiu outlawed martial arts, standardized the written language and the width of cart axles, and unified the world as its First Emperor.
