In the war-torn final years of the Han dynasty, when heroes rise by the score, the protagonist is born into humble circumstances but harbors the ambition to rule the land and break the chains of fate.
To achieve his grand ambitions, he joins Cao Cao’s ranks. He appears utterly loyal, but in secret, he lays his plans…
From the start, he gravely wounds Lü Bu. Cao Cao: “I never imagined there’d be someone like him in Juancheng. I love him to death.” “Yichen... I trusted you so much, and this is how you repay me.”
Liu Bei: “I’ve never wronged you. Why are you so determined to destroy me?”
Yuan Shu: “Yichen, I’ll make you a king. Just withdraw your troops...”
Zhuge Liang: “I’m no great talent, and I’m afraid I can’t serve the general... What are you doing? Quick... put me down!”
(Conquest, System, strategy, passion, ruthless decisiveness, no saintly hero.)
The protagonist’s past will be revealed gradually in later chapters.
