What I Wield Is Not a Weapon of Slaughter

The common people fear the officials and powerful nobles. But the ones they fear are the Sin-Bearing Officials, who hold the feudal lords in check and encompass the lands beyond the frontier. The Calamity of Tianxing strikes, and the feudal lords rebel. The Great Zhou dynasty is suddenly on the brink of collapse. The upheaval of the Three Sin-Bearing Officials sets thirteen kingdoms in motion. Wei Baiyun travels south from the Eastern Capital to Wu and Chu, where betrayal and conspiracy follow one after another. He maneuvers amid the turmoil in Chu, then witnesses the dramatic upheaval in Yicheng as Wu and Chu divide their territory. He heads north to Eastern Qi, where beyond the grasslands, foreign tribes are plotting to invade the Central Plains. Wei Baiyun must break this impasse: the chaos engulfing the land, the struggle for supremacy among the feudal lords, and the ruin of the nation and its families. With a single blade, he will cut through this tangled web. He is the Sin-Bearing Official of Obsession.
