What a Coincidence, You Want to Start a Rebellion Too?

In the fifteenth year of Duankang, Emperor Ai is obsessed with sensual pleasures and rules with wanton abandon. Eunuchs hold power and throw the court into chaos. Natural disasters strike, leaving the people destitute and the land ravaged. Heroes everywhere rise up, vowing to overthrow the Wu dynasty.

Mount Pujing, Lingbo Sect.

Elder Duanheng: "Do you remember why you're going down the mountain this time?"

Xue Qiong: "Your disciple goes forth into this troubled age to uphold justice and save the people from suffering."

Elder Duanheng: "Ahem. I've taught you that the most important thing for a martial artist is to face what's in your heart."

Xue Qiong: "Your disciple intends to marry the third daughter of the Yue family!"

Elder Duanheng: "Hmm?"

Without changing expression, Xue Qiong amended his answer: "And then join her in rebellion, ending the Wu dynasty's corrupt rule."

"That's more like it, you little rascal." Elder Duanheng stroked his immortal's beard and nodded slightly as he watched Xue Qiong depart.

In troubled times, heroes rise.

Once you enter the jianghu...

You may succeed, but your bones will be left behind.

This is a companion novel to This Empress Is a Bandit. It tells the story of the parents' generation: Ye Xun, Chu Shangjing, Nan Hui, and the others. It can be read on its own without affecting your reading experience. Although the troubled setting is somewhat dark, the novel's overall style is still lighthearted historical romance.

One-on-one pairing, happy ending. New chapters daily from launch. Thanks for your support, and welcome aboard =w=

Dedicated to four lines of poetry I love:

The heroes of our time emerge amid the world's turmoil; once they enter the jianghu, the years hurry by. The empire and its glory are discussed with laughter, yet all life can offer is a drunken dream.
