Sun Jiqi, the most useless prince in the Nine Great Dynasties, has had his spiritual roots destroyed and is terminally ill. The Crown Prince hunts him down until he's like a stray dog. All the court officials are betting he won't survive three days.
And yet...
The number one assassin in the rankings, the "Lone Ghost," becomes his personal bodyguard;
The most beautiful woman in the Five Spirits Realm volunteers to protect him while he cultivates;
Even the Wolf King of the Northern Frontier bows his head and pays his respects when he sees him!
The Crown Prince sneers, "A good-for-nothing like you thinks you can fight me?"
Sun Jiqi chuckles through a mouthful of blood. "Your Highness, ever wonder why every ambush you set ends with you stepping right into my trap?"
When the grand ceremony to offer sacrifices to Heaven begins, everyone expects to watch him die on the spot. Instead, Sun Jiqi kicks over the altar, leaves the dynasty, switches tracks, and overtakes them on the bend. If I can't take you down, I'm no Sun!
"Today, I withdraw from the Nine Great Dynasties..."
He smiles through the blood, one foot planted on the Crown Prince's head:
"And while I'm at it, I'll pick a new emperor."
Come on⛽Not bad
