Lin Ge wakes up to find he has transmigrated to Great Xu. Somehow, he has become the clan younger brother of Lin Kuang, deputy leader of the Martial World Alliance. At the foot of Wanzhang Que, the Eight Great Sects, unable to find Lin Kuang, force him to sign a life-and-death contract: by noon tomorrow, he must take over as Hall Master of External Affairs.
“The three parties involved in the canal transport policy are all unhappy. No matter who they are, everyone wants a bigger share?”
“Somewhere among the three overseas islands lies a treasure from the previous dynasty. Who leaked this classified information to the Japanese pirates?”

With the power games of the martial world and the undercurrents of the imperial court pressing down on him at once, Lin Ge, once a waiter doing odd jobs in a tavern, discovers that he is the deadly piece set to stir up the world. With ink and paper, he overturns the martial world’s hierarchy; with words, he unravels armies of millions. Amid the raging currents of the Great Xu era, he writes the most ruthless diplomatic strategy the martial world has ever seen.
