A modern-day assassin codenamed “Yan Wang” died by accident while carrying out a mission. When he woke, he had become a good-for-nothing prince who had been poisoned.
From the start, he had a cup of poisoned wine, a saber, and a System that made him stronger by killing
[Heroic Spirit Glutton]: Slay enemies and devour their vitality and blood to strengthen yourself permanently.
Commander of the Imperial Guards? Kill him! Lackeys of the peace faction? Kill them! Qin Hui’s cronies? Not one will be spared.
It took him only three days to go from a fallen prince in the Cold Palace to the judge of the night in the Song Empire.
At court, treacherous ministers saw him as a thorn in their side. In the martial world, every faction watched him like a hawk.
And yet some people insisted on gravitating toward him
The prime minister’s legitimate daughter, unmatched in talent and beauty, fell for him at first sight;
The daughter of a military family, a peerless fighter, was willing to charge into battle for him;
The head of the secret agents, alluring and seductive, offered him her entire intelligence network;
And then there was the female assassin sent by an enemy state. She was supposed to take his life, but instead turned her blade on someone else…
As Jurchen hooves trampled the Central Plains and Qin Hui raised his butcher’s blade against loyal subjects
Zhao Xun wiped the blood from his blade and smiled coldly.
“It’s time for the Song Empire to have a new master.”
Watch as an assassin king slaughters his way from the Cold Palace to the Golden Throne, proves his way through killing, marches north to Huanglong, and builds a new Song Empire of iron and blood!
