The Ming Dynasty of Magic and Martial Arts

Reborn in the Ming Dynasty, Qi Ning awakens to his memories and discovers that beneath the empire's apparent strength, dark currents are churning. Peasant uprisings rage without end, while feudal princes seize the chance to rebel.

The Tatars still dream of invading the south, and Japanese pirates repeatedly raid the empire's coastal waters. Unseen, a dark hand is stirring up turmoil throughout the martial world.

Given a second life, will Qi Ning choose to muddle through, or lean on powerful allies and tread a ruthless, dark path of martial prowess, ready to die for his cause?

“As a Gu master, I'm naturally fickle. I'm Qi Ning. Cross me, and I'll make sure your whole household knows no peace!”
