Inheriting the Talismans from the Start: Shadowkhan, Obey My Command!

At his father’s funeral, the Poison Scorpion Gang crashes the wake with a blood-written challenge: “The Lin family has lost its backbone. Get out of Yuncheng while you still can!”

The whole city expects him to fail, and the clan elders urge him to avoid trouble. But 22-year-old Lin Chen walks straight up to them. “I accept your challenge.”

Late that night, in the ancestral shrine, a drop of heart’s blood falls onto the ancestral stele, and a bronze box cracks open

Twelve talismans burn into his marrow: the Rat brings all things to life, the Ox shatters solid rock, and the Dragon summons thunder;

A Shadow Army token merges with his shadow, and tens of thousands of shadow soldiers kneel on one knee. “We await your orders!”

The next day, the Poison Scorpion Gang’s stronghold suddenly goes dark. Shadow ninjas surge out of the darkness. Lin Chen strolls through the morning light and gives the shadows a single command: “Tie them up and hand them over to the police. Include a ton of smuggling records.”

Su Qingyue, the business queen, presents him with a partnership proposal. “The rumors are true. I’m in.”

Police captain Chu Mengyao studies the case files. “This ‘Shadow wound,’ who else could have caused it but you?”

Xia Wanqing, a master physician, brings over a bowl of medicine. “The talismans’ backlash is hurting you. I added some of my own blood as an ingredient.”

Top-tier star Qin Yuwei clutches her skirt. “They say you’re the King of Hell, but you’re the light that saved me.”

From the old alleys of Yuncheng to the global dark web, Lin Chen rubs the faint glow of a talisman in his palm. Behind him, the Shadow Army’s armor rings in unison.

“My father said the Lin family’s rule is to protect the good and eliminate evil. Now it’s my turn.”

[Shadow Army, obey my command! Crush everyone who dares defy us!]
