Name: The Late Ming Dynasty's Greatest Killer
Author: A Scholar's Heart

Synopsis

[Transmigration + Ming Dynasty + Tianqi + Chongzhen + Invincible + Ruthless]

Year Five of the Tianqi era, the Ming Dynasty’s twilight years.

The eunuch faction runs rampant at court, the countryside is littered with starving corpses, and flames of war engulf the borders. On the eve of the dynasty’s collapse, a forgotten star general quietly returns.

Tan Hongye, once the heir to a marquis’s estate, is now known as the “Blood-Handed Asura.” He enlisted at fifteen and spent ten years on the battlefield, all to restore his family’s former glory. He led the Shenji Battalion to achieve unprecedented victories in Liaodong, but in the end, even he could not overcome the rot at court.

Disillusioned, he wants nothing more than to return home as a commoner and find a measure of peace in these chaotic times.

But something is not right. His bloodstained goose-feather saber is drawn!

From Yingtian Prefecture to the snowy wastes of Liaodong, from the Forbidden City to foreign battlefields, he carves a path through blood. Before long, the entire Ming Dynasty is turning wherever his blade points!

Wei Zhongxian falls to his knees and begs, “Grandpa, spare my life! I’ll gladly be your dog!”

On his deathbed, Nurhaci sighs, “So... this is the true Asura God of Slaughter...”

Prince Xin, Zhu Youjian, trembles. “I would never dare covet the throne again...”

The Tianqi Emperor, Zhu Youxiao, clasps his hand and invites him: “I would rule the realm alongside you, my dear subject! I’ll make you a prince whose rank is second only to the emperor!”

Tan Hongye can only rub his forehead helplessly. “I really... just wanted to go home and farm...”
