In the Great Qian Dynasty, demons lurk and the imperial court has rotted to its core. Gu Changyuan transmigrates into the body of the notorious Nine-Thousand-Year-Old Eunuch of the Eastern Depot, a man with power over the entire court. His predecessor was cruel and vicious, and every official in the capital would love to eat his flesh and drink his blood. As it happens, the young emperor on the dragon throne is the reincarnation of the legendary Immortal Emperor who once swept across the ages, and he is hell-bent on killing Gu, whom he sees as a “treacherous rebel”!
In this desperate situation, Gu Changyuan binds himself to the National Fortune Rebate System. By giving the Great Qian ruler his own fortune, cultivation, and treasures, he can earn multiplied rewards in return.
The young emperor secretly trains assassins to take his life? Gu Changyuan turns around and gives them peerless cultivation manuals, helping them break through.
[Ding! Invest in the emperor's foundations. Critical rebate: "Primordial Ancestral Dragon Art"!]
The young emperor's private treasury is empty, and he can't even afford disaster relief? Gu Changyuan raids corrupt officials' homes and fills the national treasury with mountains of gold and silver.
[Ding! Enrich the emperor's treasury. Critical rebate: Supreme Imperial Weapon, “National Guardian Seal”!]
The young emperor remains on guard: That eunuch must be plotting an even bigger rebellion!
Then one day, the feudal lords lay siege to the capital, the demon armies mass at the borders, and the Great Qian Dynasty teeters on the brink of collapse. The Nine-Thousand-Year-Old Eunuch, long branded a traitor, stands alone before the city gate with a sword in hand. He slays a celestial demon god and sighs, “Your Majesty, I'm tired of playing the rebel. This vast realm is yours again.”
The young emperor gazes at the blood-soaked figure's back. His fingers crush the armrest of the dragon throne, and his voice turns hoarse: “Gu Changyuan! If you dare to die, I'll exterminate your entire clan for ten generations!”
