Early Qing: Wearing Human Skin to Impersonate a County Magistrate from the Start

Li Sheng was electrocuted while fishing and unexpectedly transmigrated to the first year of the Kangxi era in the early Qing dynasty, becoming a down-and-out scholar!

But the conversation in the distance left him rooted to the spot.

The words of several monks nearby reached Li Sheng’s ears.

“Yuanhe, have you heard?”

A fat monk whispered, “The Mountain God of Mount Tai has submitted to the Jurchens.”

The Mountain God of Mount Tai?

Li Sheng was utterly bewildered. Who was he? Where was he?

“Li Sheng, by order of the Cult Master, starting today you will impersonate the magistrate of Xiangyin County and take up the post.”

Before Li Sheng could react, a monk appeared in front of him and spoke. Without even giving him a chance to respond, the monk draped a blood-soaked human skin over him.

Fortunately, though he’d been thrust into the role without a choice, Li Sheng discovered that he had brought along a loan System. It didn’t lend money, though. It lent cultivation!

Want powerful cultivation?

The kind where you pay back nine for every thirteen borrowed!

Seeing the exorbitant interest rates on the loan System, a resolute look flashed in Li Sheng’s eyes. His life was nearly over anyway. What was there to fear from a little interest?
