I Just Wanted to Farm, So How Did I Become a Rebel?

Married Couple Transmigration | Fleeing Through a Chaotic Age | Farming and Building from the Ground Up | Empress Ascendant

In the late Tang dynasty, regional warlords carved up the realm and flames of war spread everywhere.

A newlywed couple in Qiong Alley looked at each other and realized that both of them had changed inside.

The butcher’s daughter was actually a sword cultivator who followed the merciless path. With her memories missing, she pretended to be an honest, ordinary person every day.

The poor-born son of a concubine was secretly a master alchemist. To his dismay, he discovered that his portable-space golden finger was tied to the person beside him in bed.

The couple exchanged a glance. It wasn’t as if they could get divorced, so they might as well make do!

From the start, the city fell, forcing the couple onto the road as refugees.

Cheng Yi cut down rebels one by one with her sword. Anyone who crossed her would die.

Pei Xingyu backed her up and cleaned up after her, while his golden finger developed in secret.

After finally making it to Chang’an, they thought they could settle down and make a living.

Who could have guessed that history’s most formidable failed imperial-exam candidate would storm the capital, treading the streets until they were strewn with the bones of nobles?

The couple exchanged another glance. Into the mountains! Clear land, build houses, and stockpile grain!

Pei Xingyu unlocked every feature of his golden finger: enchanting and improving seeds to boost yields, refining dyes and making silk through alchemy, and forging equipment to add a hundred points to their combat strength. Before they knew it, they had built the strongest fortress around.

One day, Cheng Yi discovered by accident that people outside were calling her a rebel!

How infuriating! She was just a farmer. Had she broken some law of heaven?

While she was still fuming, her tenant farmers suddenly brought over an imperial robe and draped it around her shoulders.

Cheng Yi: Wait, no, hold on! What are you doing?

Rebellion? Who? Me?
