A Life in the Jianghu, Starting Over After Death

Lu Chengan entered Wuding Mountain at the age of ten and stayed there for seven years. Others thought he was just an ordinary disciple who had yet to cultivate inner power. They had no idea he was also a secret agent planted on Wuding Mountain by the imperial court. In this world of thriving martial arts, where the imperial court and the martial world keep each other in check, many of his choices have never been his to make. Yet a mysterious pendant he has carried for years allows him to return to the past with his memories intact after he dies. Each time he dies, the amount of time he can rewind grows shorter. And when he changes the choices he once made, the people and circumstances he knows change along with them. Lu Chengan must hide his identity, while using these memories to advance further and further in martial arts. First, he wants to survive. Then, one day, he wants to truly choose his own path forward.
