The protagonist, Qin Yu, crawls out of a 'planned development zone,' a lawless land where even zombies can't survive. He spends all his savings to buy a police officer's identity, thinking he can live a peaceful life, but upon entering the special zone, he's immediately embroiled in gang warfare and police corruption… Without superpowers or a system, only his fists and brains, he uses a drug raid to kill a gang leader, establishing himself in the underworld. ⚔️ A perfect fusion of underworld intrigue and post-apocalyptic survival. With his left hand, he dismantles a warlord's smuggling chain; with his right, he takes over a drug dealer's territory; using economic thinking to monopolize the drug supply, he stops a city-wide riot with a single bag of rice; from a low-level police officer to an energy tycoon, from an orphan in a planned development zone to an underground emperor—every step is thrilling, yet incredibly satisfying! 💥" Memorable scenes that will get your adrenaline pumping: The bloody battle in the slag heap: Qin Yu kills a mutated drug dealer with his bare hands, uses a recording pen to hide the body as evidence, and tears apart the corrupt police department chain; Liquid nitrogen freezes the battlefield: In the battle for Sichuan Prefecture, 100,000 enemy troops are frozen into ice sculptures, a veritable "violent poem of wasteland aesthetics"; The final battle on Salt Island: Using the I Ching to deduce the quantum core, Eastern wisdom is used to solve the high-dimensional civilization's deadly trap—who says post-apocalyptic novels can only be mindless monster-slaying? 🌟 A phenomenal success, a critically acclaimed 9.7-point masterpiece, sweeping the bestseller lists on both 17K and Qidian platforms; Winner of the Golden Keyboard Award for "Best Story Creativity," hailed as the "ceiling of Chinese wasteland aesthetics"; 400,000+ readers following the story: "The political intrigue is wilder than 'The Godfather,' and the worldview is more ruthless than 'The Three-Body Problem'!"

The red light in the dark room illuminates two intertwined shadows; they use torture instruments to write love letters, carving exclusive totems into each other's skin, their violent possessiveness burning hotter than a whip. [Forbidden Game] The moment he breaks free of his restraints, his Adam's apple presses against her trembling blade: "Didn't the beast tamer teach you? Before unlocking the collar, you must first break the beast's spine." Her lipstick is already smeared on his heart, a fatal spot, like a blooming bullet hole. In this hunt in the name of love, who is the true prey? When two abysses gaze at each other, destruction becomes the grandest embrace. [Dark Aesthetics] The author dissects twisted love and desire with surgical precision; the pain of the skin is merely a disguise for the tide of passion.

A year later, Li Ziye, now a sword master, and Qin Ena dueled under a plum blossom tree. They smiled at each other, and a new legend began. The following is the content of Chapter One: --- # Chapter 1 Prodigy Li Ziye "Fairy Qin is coming to Yuzhou City!" In the Great Shang Dynasty, Yuzhou City, a piece of news from an unknown source instantly ignited the entire city! "Fairy Qin? That Plum Blossom Sword Immortal? What is she doing in Yuzhou City?" "Of course, it's to take on disciples! I heard she only accepts boys under sixteen years old. This is an incredible opportunity!" On the most bustling street in Yuzhou City, the crowd discussed excitedly, their faces glowing with excitement. Plum Blossom Sword Immortal Qin Ena was a renowned sword master in the Great Shang Dynasty, said to have already stepped halfway into the Saint Realm. To be accepted as her disciple was like ascending to heaven in one step. In a private room on the third floor of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, a young man dressed in brocade sat by the window, toying with a celadon wine cup in his hand, his ears perked up, taking in all the chatter from the crowd on the street. "Young Master, aren't you going to take a look?" The servant beside him asked excitedly. "I heard the registration office is at the city magistrate's mansion, and it's already packed!" "What's there to see?" Li Ziye curled his lip, looking disdainful. "No matter how skilled Qin Ena is, she's just a martial artist who wields swords. My Li family has been in business for generations, and we're incredibly wealthy. I, this young master, will be taking over the family business in the future. What's the point of learning those fighting and killing?" The servant shrank back, not daring to say another word. Li Ziye, the only son of the Li family, the richest family in Yuzhou City, was exactly sixteen years old this year. On the surface, he was a good-for-nothing playboy, but in reality, he was exceptionally intelligent and had a photographic memory. In Yuzhou City, apart from his father, no one knew that this young master had secretly memorized the Li family's ancestral "Business Classic" perfectly, even able to point out more than a dozen errors. "Afu, where's my father?" Li Ziye suddenly asked. "Master went to the west of the city early this morning to check the accounts, saying he wouldn't be back until tonight." "Oh." Li Ziye nodded, a sly glint in his eyes, "Then I'll go out for a stroll, you don't need to come with me." Half an hour later, outside the city magistrate's mansion. Li Ziye squeezed into the crowd, a layer of fine sweat already appearing on his forehead. He never expected so many people to register; almost all the eligible boys in Yuzhou City had come, and many had even come from surrounding towns. "Have you heard? Zhang Junshi from the Zhang family is here too!" "Which Zhang family?" "Which one? Of course, it's the Zhang family, the number one martial arts family in Yuzhou! Zhang Junshi is the number one genius among the younger generation in Yuzhou City. He reached the ninth rank in martial arts at the age of fourteen, and now at sixteen, it's said he's already touched the threshold of the eighth rank!" "Then this spot is definitely his..." Hearing such discussions, Li Ziye curled his lip. Of course, he knew Zhang Junshi. That guy, relying on his family background and talent, acted arrogantly and domineeringly in Yuzhou City, bullying many commoners. "Silence!" A clear shout came from inside the city garrison, and the entire place immediately fell silent. A woman in white slowly walked out, her face as cold as frost, a vermilion dot between her brows particularly striking, and a snow-white longsword strapped to her back. The Plum Blossom Sword Immortal, Qin Ena! Even Li Ziye, who had never practiced martial arts, could feel the sharp sword energy rushing towards him, as if looking at it for too long would injure him. "Today's selection only considers aptitude, not background." Qin Ena's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears. "I will use my sword energy to examine everyone's potential, and those suitable will be kept." With that, she flicked her sleeve, and an invisible sword energy swept across the entire area. Li Ziye felt a cool aura enter his head, circulate within his body, and then disappear. "Ah!" Suddenly, a scream came from ahead. A young man knelt on the ground, his face deathly pale. "With an evil heart, even the best potential is useless." Qin Ena said coldly, "Next." The selection proceeded quickly, with most people being eliminated with a single sweep of sword energy. Only a few were left, including the highly anticipated Zhang Junshi. By the time it was Li Ziye's turn, he had already given up hope. After all, he had never cultivated before, and he didn't even know his own innate talent. The moment the sword energy entered his body, Li Ziye suddenly had a strange feeling—as if something inside him had been touched, a warm current surged from his dantian and then quickly disappeared. "Huh?" Qin Ena showed surprise for the first time, her gaze sharp as she looked at Li Ziye, "What's your name?" "Li Ziye," he answered honestly. "Have you ever cultivated?" "No." Qin Ena frowned slightly, and another sword energy entered Li Ziye's body. This time, Li Ziye clearly felt that something in his dantian seemed to be absorbing the sword energy. "A pure heart, innately immaculate," Qin Ena murmured to herself, a strange light flashing in her eyes, "It's you." The entire audience erupted in commotion! "What? The merchant's son was chosen?" "Li Ziye? That good-for-nothing young master of the Li family?" "Is Fairy Qin mistaken? He hasn't even entered the realm of martial arts!" The most shocked was Zhang Junshi. He strode forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Senior Qin, this person has no cultivation whatsoever, why was he chosen and not me?" Qin Ena glanced at him and said indifferently, "Although your aptitude is excellent, your temperament is impetuous and your ambition is too strong. In sword cultivation, temperament is paramount." Zhang Junshi's face immediately turned ashen, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes. Li Ziye was also dumbfounded at this moment. He had only come with the intention of joining in the fun, but he didn't expect to actually be chosen? "Tomorrow at Chenshi (7-9 AM), wait for me at the pavilion ten miles east of the city." Qin Ena left these words and drifted away. Li Ziye stood there, feeling the envious and jealous gazes coming from all directions, especially Zhang Junshi's almost murderous eyes, and couldn't help but touch his nose. "This... Seems like things have gone too far." - **The Mystery of the Seal**: The golden seal deep within Li Ziye's dantian, which even Qin Ena couldn't fully probe, subtly resonated with the ancient sword formation that had slumbered for sixteen years deep within the palace. - **Undercurrents**: The secret letter Zhang Junshi sent to the capital overnight bore the personal seal of the Third Prince, and the words "Be sure to eliminate that merchant's son" were still bleeding. - **Clues to Origins**: The portrait Qin Ena found in a hidden compartment of the Li family ancestral hall depicted a young empress holding an infant, and the jade pendant around her neck perfectly matched the pattern of the broken jade pendant Li Ziye always carried.
