   Qi Jiamingman, a name imbued with boundless affection, was a carefree young nobleman of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Hei Xiazi's most beloved younger brother, and a child personally taken in and raised by the system. However, a sudden tragedy shattered his family, and five-year-old Qi Jiamingman, while wandering, encountered Zhang Qiling. Just when he thought someone could love him again, he was caught in the Zhang family's internal strife and forced to enter the Bronze Gate, wandering alone in a state of confusion devoid of his five senses. With the system's help, he finally created a puppet doppelganger to find his brother, escape the darkness, and become that happy child again. But then, under the Wang family's machinations, Hei Xiazi personally forced him to drink a poison that would rip his intestines open, and a bullet pierced his chest. Even though Hei Xiazi risked another disappointing return and a battered and bruised escape during the family reunion, he became the final straw that drove Qi Jiamingman to his death. His still-warm body was collected by the Wang family, brainwashed, trained, and dissected, all to become their mad dog against Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi. [Hahaha, how ridiculous! After searching for his family for over a decade, Hei Xiazi warmed the heart of a lonely boy and then personally sent him to hell. In his agonizing search, he discovered a bag of shattered bones.

But they were already in pieces; any more and they would be minced meat... Hehehe~ A ray of crimson light shone on his face, staining his originally pale skin with a dark red hue. His smile was as terrifying as a demon's. And the black and red blade gleamed with an evil light in the setting sun, like a demonic blade from hell, full of resentment. "Traitors, you should have died the moment you betrayed me... I have given you time! But I am not satisfied with your choice... Hehehehe..." The youth plunged the blood-stained long sword straight into his heart, the chilling smile still on his lips. But he quietly fell into the sea of ​​corpses and blood, falling into a deep sleep like a weary child.
