The Nine Gates: What Comes Next

This is an era in which no one is free to choose their own fate. As the defense commissioner of Changsha, Zhang Qishan is forced into a struggle that will determine the fate of the nation.

When Madam Er Yuehong dies of illness, he makes a difficult choice: sacrifice one person to save the nation.

After the Warring States Silk Manuscript case erupts, Zhang Qishan has no choice but to coldly execute a group of former comrades for the greater good, taking on the role of the man everyone hates.

In the end, he accepts a certain leader's terms and sets out to find something in order to protect the Nine Gates, but this move leads to the Nine Gates' collapse.

With Jiu Ye Xie and the others carefully plotting behind the scenes, a devastating general assault is quietly brewing... This is a contest of honor, sacrifice, and betrayal, where every choice is full of uncertainty and change. Each of them is forced by an era beyond their control to become a legend.
