The Confucian Knight of Qimen

In that wretched age of turmoil and ruin, ordinary people struggled to put food on the table. The rich feasted while the poor froze to death in the streets, and tragedies of people preying on one another were commonplace. Gangs banded together to survive, fighting and killing over territory and business. There was never a day of peace, and the world seemed entirely engulfed by the darkness of the underworld.

In the blink of an eye, decades passed. The country's economy began to prosper and stabilize, and the He Xin Society no longer seemed suited to the times. To establish a new order for the underworld, a few old hands and younger members of our group pitted their wits against one another. Amid a chain of schemes within schemes, a reincarnated spiritual child revealed my past lives and old dreams. It turned out that Wen Shaoting and I had been locked in an unresolved feud for lifetimes.

The causes of a past life, the karma of this one; enemies in a past life, sworn foes in this one. Eight hundred years ago, I was a renowned scholar-hero of the mystic arts, praised by all the people of the realm, and Wen Shaoting was my young nephew. Through nearly a thousand years of reincarnation, the struggle between grievance and goodwill, good and evil, had hinged on a single thought. What mystery lay hidden in our fates?

Using the spiritual child technique, the reincarnated living Buddha guided me through a dream-returning method that let me traverse time and revisit my past. Under the brilliant light of a sacred Buddhist relic bearing a mystery a thousand years old, I arrived in another dimension, a blood-soaked martial world, an unfamiliar place, a distant age, an indescribable realm…

The Great Jinpeng Dynasty was founded on wealth beyond compare. Legend had it that a sage from the South Sea traveled through the Central Plains and surveyed the martial world. The feudal lords had been at war for years, and people throughout the land were suffering. To save them from disaster, he braved the dangers of the Tianshan Mountains, observed the stars, and studied the balance of yin and yang. He learned that this was the dragon vein from which all the rivers of the realm flowed. After excavating an ancient tomb, he uncovered countless treasures and rose up to establish a dynasty. The sage from the South Sea possessed the talent of a statesman and general. In less than five years, he had vanquished the warring lords and unified the realm, bringing peace and prosperity.

I spent my days fighting to the death in this otherworldly dimension, clinging to life as I drifted through the martial world…
