The Mortal's Pride

The Nine Provinces are in turmoil, and heroes contend for the throne. The Heavenly Dao has collapsed, and all living things are but straw dogs, begging Heaven for their lives. I, Liyang, am human. Only I can bring peace to the mountains and rivers of the Nine Provinces, only I can destroy the Golden Immortals who play at being chess masters, and only I can open the three thousand Great Daos. Everyone, behold my unyielding spirit, and hear my dragon's roar.
