The Ming Executioner: Slaying a Dragon at the Vegetable Market from the Start

After transmigrating into the Ming dynasty during the Yongle era as an executioner, Chen Duan discovers that something is terribly wrong with this Ming dynasty! There really is a dragon roaring beneath the Dragon-Locking Well, and the remains of the previous dynasty lie buried under the capital. In this chaotic age of demons and monsters, beheading people has become a high-risk profession. Fortunately, Chen Duan awakens the Mythical Executioner System. He slays a centipede spirit disguised as the Imperial Preceptor and obtains Ancient Kunlun Swordsmanship; he kills a nine-tailed fox spirit wreaking havoc at court and obtains Eyes That Bewitch All Living Beings. The difficulty is set to hell from the start: Zhu Di wants to behead the reincarnation of the legendary Dragon King of the Jing River, but no one dares take the blade! Chen Duan strides onto the execution platform, broadcasting to the entire city: “Today, I shall summon the Dragon King to his death!” With one swing of his blade, he bathes in dragon blood and achieves sainthood in the flesh! From then on, the Ming dynasty gains an Execution Saint Venerable who suppresses the fate of the realm. “Your Majesty, if I can behead an immortal, I can behead the King of Hell too!”
