I Slay Gods in the City

Once hailed as a legend of the martial world, Chu Wangsheng, known as the “Bright Moon Blade,” was dueling a peerless swordsman atop the Forbidden City when a clash of blade and sword sent the world into upheaval. When he woke, he was lying in a room filled with strange instruments. His body was frail, and another person’s memories flooded his mind. This was a strange world of towering skyscrapers and iron-hulled steeds. It looked ordinary, but danger lurked beneath the surface. In the modern city, martial arts clans hid among ordinary people, supernatural organizations stirred in the shadows, and technological martial arts overturned tradition. The greatest swordsman of his age had become an illegitimate son cast out by a wealthy family, with only a wisp of pure blade intent left within him. “My inner power may be gone, but my blade soul lives on.” Using his fingers in place of a blade, Chu Wangsheng sets out to walk the martial path anew in the city. From the bloodshed of underground fighting rings to the power struggles between clans and the secret recruitment efforts of the Supernatural Affairs Bureau, he cuts through layer upon layer of mystery, alone with his blade. But as his strength returns, he discovers a mysterious connection between this world and his past life. His transmigration was no accident. A conspiracy spanning a thousand years slowly comes to light, and the appearance of other transmigrators heralds the imminent outbreak of a supernatural war that will engulf the globe. The bright moon remains, but the blade is sharper than ever. In this unfamiliar city of high martial arts, Chu Wangsheng will wield an ancient dragon’s blade and forge a new legend.
