Three days before Xingjiao Gate, I awoke. I am not Li Cunxu, the useless drunk who drank himself to death. I am Chen Xiao!
A System? I have one. Restore military might and bring fortune to the empire! Traitors? I’ll kill them! The actor Guo Congqian? One stroke of my blade! Great generals? I’ll have them! Guo Chongtao, Li Siyuan, Shi Jingtang, all of you, kneel before me!
The Khitan march south? I’ll march north! Three hundred thousand wolf-riders? I’ll seal Langjuxu Mountain! The Seven Pavilions of Huage plot against me? I’ll tear the skin from your backs! Former Shu rebels? Jiangnan cuts off my supplies? I’ll crush them one by one!
Some call me an evil spirit?
That’s right, I am an evil spirit! The evil spirit of this Great Tang! I will not be a lesser Xuanzong. I will become, an emperor for the ages!
