Li Jing's Midlife Crisis

With a world-shaking battle about to engulf the Three Realms, Li Jing, commander of Chentang Pass, finds himself at the center of the storm. His sect is on one side, the imperial court on the other. Where should he turn?

At the same time, his home life is a complete mess.

He has three sons. His eldest, Jin Zha, is a hotheaded young man who is always standing up for the underdog. If he didn't have a System, someone would have conned him into an early grave by now.

His second son, Mu Zha, carries a Great Dao Library with him everywhere and spends all day lost in his own little world. He's young, but somehow even more laid-back than his father.

As for his youngest, Ne Zha, he claims to be some sort of reincarnator. His catchphrase is, "Killing people gives me points!" Li Jing has never been able to decide whether he even counts as his son.

Each son is more trouble than the last.

Middle age is hard, and life is full of hardship!

But when Li Jing discovers that all the big shots from his sect are scheming to get their hands on his sons, this middle-aged dad finally loses his temper.

I've kept my head down for all these years. Do you really think I'm just some nobody who has to live off his sons? It's time to show you what Li Jing can really do!

A friendly warning: the pacing is unbearably slow. Take the protagonist's golden finger, for example... Well, I'm hoping to get to it within the first 200,000 characters.
