[History is written by the victors, but the truth is rewritten by the strong.]
Five thousand years ago, the Battle of Zhuolu.
The history books say: Chiyou, the demon god, brought calamity to the people. The Yellow Emperor and Yan Emperor acted on Heaven’s behalf and wiped out the Jiuli.
The truth: Chiyou, the Human Emperor, sought to overthrow divine rule and give all living beings their freedom. Deceived by the Celestial Court, the Yellow Emperor and Yan Emperor launched a surprise attack with weapons of overwhelming technological superiority and usurped the mandate of Heaven.
Five thousand years later, spiritual qi revival begins.
Li Zhan, a delivery driver in Jiangcheng, the Su family’s live-in son-in-law, and the Human Emperor reborn.
While making deliveries, he awakens his memories and discovers that his wife carries the Yan Emperor’s seal within her, his brother is the reincarnation of an ancient general, and his enemies are the “descendants of heroes” from the history books.
He discovers something else: the Celestial Court never left. It simply changed its name to “Order,” to “Orthodoxy,” to “For your own good.”
