Young Lord, Rebellion Is Your Only Way Out!

Jiang Si, once the notorious “white-case chef” of the martial world, is reborn by chance in the body of the sickly young heir of the Marquis of Zhenbei in the Great Yong Dynasty. He awakens a golden finger called “inner sight”: he can peer into the cultivation methods of the living, and absorb the true qi within the dead for his own use. At first, all he wants is a carefree, easygoing life. The daughter of a former Eastern Palace official throws herself into the game. Her actions bring to light an old case from fifteen years ago: “the Crown Prince’s rebellion.” A natural disaster, a “prophecy,” war raging on all sides, corpses of the starving strewn across the land. Remnants of the previous dynasty, the demoness of the Dark Abyss, the Holy Maiden of the Mystic Heavens, and the Buddhist maiden of the Great Thunderclap Temple all emerge. The court is rife with deadly intrigue, while the martial world is awash in bloodshed. Those who want to kill him, use him, or scheme against him turn his life upside down. With no other choice, he flips the table and becomes the one moving the pieces. Also known as: The Heir’s Wonderful Life, The Player Behind the Pieces.
