Ashes Stain the Blue Robe

After transmigrating into the Three Kingdoms era and becoming Xun Yu's adopted son, Lu Zhao thought he'd latched onto one of the era's greatest strategists. All he had to do was grind ink at his desk and plot from behind the scenes.

Until a bloodstained dagger pierced the dusk in Luoyang!

Eunuch lackeys brutally murdered a father and daughter in the street, spraying blood three feet high! He witnessed the horror but could only flee in panic, like an ant!

What use was a scholar's refinement? In a time of chaos, without fists or strength, you were nothing but a lamb awaiting slaughter!

He apprenticed himself to the Sword Saint Wang Yue, toughening his body and mastering the art of killing!

He served Xun Yu at his desk, copying secret reports and sorting urgent dispatches!

With a blade in one hand and a brush in the other, could he carve out an empire of his own in the crumbling Han dynasty?
