The Unclouded: After the Marshal's Death, I Became the World's Greatest

In the final years of the Tang Dynasty, warlords divide the realm, chaos reigns, and the people suffer. Families trade their children for food, and cries of despair ring across the land. The Bureau of Investigation, established during Emperor Taizong's reign, is led by Yuan Tiangang to bring order to the court. Its name strikes fear into everyone.

Yet when Zhu Wen usurps the Tang, the Bureau of Investigation retreats from the world. It intends to imitate the Eastern and Western Han split and rebuild the Tang Dynasty. Li Xingyun, a direct descendant of the Li imperial line, wants no part in court affairs, but is forced into the martial world.

Lin Yuan, who has transmigrated into this world, only wants to serve the Prince of Qin and live out his days in peace. But after meeting Li Xingyun, he is drawn into this endless conflict.

He masters divine arts, gains immortality, becomes Prince of Qin, and rises to the pinnacle of power. At last, he realizes that people's hearts are in turmoil and the tide of history cannot be turned. Still, this chaotic age needs someone to bring it to an end.

Will it be Zhu Youzhen, brilliant yet prone to slaughtering innocents? Li Cunxu, an ambitious hero who contends for the Central Plains and has no equal? Or Shi Jingtang, the humiliated emperor who cedes territory and begs for help, earning the title of “son emperor”?

Then there is Liu Zhiyuan, founder of the Later Han, whose dynasty lasts the shortest, and Chai Rong, the most enlightened ruler of the Five Dynasties!

Lin Yuan backs Chai Rong of Later Zhou, Li Xingyun favors Xu Zhigao of Southern Tang, and Zhang Zifan bets on Zhao Kuangyin. Which of the three will emerge as the true victor?
