You Called Me a Useless Prince, and Now You Want Me on the Throne?

[System + Summoning + The Useless Prince's Comeback + Ruthless + Cathartic]

Luo Yan transmigrates into a historical martial arts era where seven powers vie for supremacy across the Nine Provinces.

He thought fate had smiled on him by making him a prince, granting him a life of luxury. But before he could even settle in, he was sent to an enemy state as a hostage at just two years old.

On the day he left the capital, he awakened the Chosen One System.

But he would have to complete a series of prerequisite tasks over fifteen years before he could bind it.

Fifteen years as a hostage in the Zhou Dynasty bought the Great Qian Dynasty fifteen years of glorious development.

Fifteen years later, Luo Yan returned to Great Qian, renowned far and wide. He thought he would be hailed as a hero of the dynasty.

But he never expected that...

From the moment he entered Tai'an City,

he was met with cold stares from his own parents and indifference from the officials.

His younger brother even plotted to get rid of him.

Everyone thought the Second Prince, Luo Yu, would inherit the throne, while the First Prince, Luo Yan, was nothing but a cripple.

Having lived once before, Luo Yan refuses to suffer even the slightest injustice.

I may not want it, but no one can take what's rightfully mine without my permission.

Intelligence: Every brothel in the land is my eyes and ears.

Assassination: The world's greatest assassin organization serves me.

Martial prowess: My personal guards are all Earthly Immortals.

Intellect: Zhuge Liang and Zhang Liang are both my retainers.

Armies: I have the Snowstorm Dragon Cavalry, the Iron Pagoda Army, and the Trapped-Camp Army, and more.

Everyone thinks I'm a useless prince, yet they all fear me.
