[Republican-era martial arts, demons run rampant, extreme martial arts, leveling, stat allocation, Republican-era setting]
In the final years of the Great Yong Republic, the world is in turmoil.
In the imperial court, every high official is a hideous painted-skin demon. In the streets and markets, people from all walks of life are mostly demons in disguise.
Warlords carve up the country at home, while Western powers watch hungrily from abroad!
Lu Chen transmigrates into this world and becomes the lowliest servant in the county yamen, a menial constable.
Fortunately, he awakens the [Karmic Sin Settlement Panel].
By day, he investigates cases and determines guilt, purging the world's sins. By night, he draws his blade and leaves the city, slaughtering every demon and ghost in his path.
[Today you solved the string of family murders south of the city and purged their sins. Settlement reward: Xingyi Fist proficiency +100, vitality as strong as an ox!]
[Tonight you slew the century-old painted-skin demon in the mass grave and dispelled its demonic aura. Settlement reward: Secret Art: Half-Step Crushing Fist, mastery of hidden force!]
He seeks neither immortality nor the Dao, and has no time for ghosts or gods!
Facing the gods, Buddhas, and demons filling the skies, Lu Chen believes in only one truth:
As long as his vitality is strong enough and his fists are fast enough, even demons will bleed and die!
And so, an invincible martial master in a constable's uniform uses his iron fists to smash his way through this demon-ridden Republican-era world!
