Xuanhuan: I Became the Heavenly Emperor, So Why Do You Regret It?

Chen Ping’an guarded the Imperial Pass for a thousand years with his battered body, his hands stained with the blood of forbidden-zone lords. Yet this generation’s God of War was discarded by the Great Qian Dynasty once his usefulness was over. When he broke through, no one protected him through the tribulation. When he returned in triumph, Emperor Qian instead accused him of “dereliction of duty,” confiscated his imperial weapon, erased his military achievements, and exiled him to the forbidden zone. He gave a bitter smile. “Emperor Qian, I’m done guarding this pass!” Three days later, the walls crumbled and countless people were sacrificed. Emperor Qian wept and begged him to return.

When he strode through the void, his white robes stained with blood, tens of thousands of wastelanders behind him shouted, “Heavenly Emperor!” The Great Qian Dynasty’s remorse was no longer worthy of his attention. “You’re not sorry. You’re just afraid to die!”
