    Before Li Yanzhou breathed his last, he used his last strength to make a wish: to exchange all the blessings of his next life for a way to save his entire clan. When he opened his eyes again, he had become the recently deceased scholar, and his wife and daughter had also transmigrated—a history professor, a field expert, and a medical student. The family of four, with maxed-out skills, dragged over a hundred clan members to survive in a chaotic world. They stockpiled food, made weapons, set traps, and recruited internal agents. They farmed, growing life-saving herbs; they built infrastructure, constructing defensive fortifications to repel bandits. There were no cheat codes, no systems, only the tacit understanding of the family and the trust of the entire clan. From cave camps to the undercurrents of the prefectural city, from being chased to taking the initiative. This is not a story of one person's cheat code, but an epic tale of an entire clan banding together to survive in a chaotic world. The writing style is restrained, the characters are solid, the details of farming feel real, and the intelligence in the espionage and strategic games is on point. It's not a wish-fulfillment novel, but it gets better with each reading.
