Conquering the World

I stood at the foot of the mountain, gazing up at its towering heights. Halfway up, I wondered why everything in this world had to be so difficult. From the summit, I looked down over all beneath the heavens and realized it was all rather ordinary after all!

What is the world? The teeming masses, the vast rivers and mountains?

Through all the rise and fall of dynasties, it is always the common people who suffer most!

I ask for nothing else, only that the people of this world no longer have to suffer or weep!

Since Heaven won’t even leave ordinary people a way to survive, then we’ll carve one out ourselves. The only truly insurmountable hardship is death. If all else fails, we can start over!

This is a fictional story, not a transmigration novel. There is no System, no golden finger, no multiple heroines, and it is not a power fantasy. The plot moves at a relatively slow pace, so feel free to bookmark it and take your time reading!

I’m a complete newcomer, so thoughtful corrections and criticism are welcome. Thank you!
