The Southern Hemisphere Is Mine, and You Want Me to Sit on the Throne?

Xiao Yuanhao, an illegitimate prince, was supposed to be a discarded pawn, exiled to the frontier to fend for himself. But what happened next? He shook out his ragged sleeves, rolled them up, and started on “hell mode” from the start. So what if the land was bitterly cold? So what if he had only three thousand weak troops? The barbarians had two hundred thousand? His fire-thunder carts would send them flying! The people called him “the king who saves lives,” his enemies cursed him as “the Northern Frontier demon,” and the imperial court feared him so much it scarcely dared breathe. He reshaped his fief with alchemy, crushed powerful enemies with his wits, and forged an ironclad military spirit, turning ruined Ningbei into a miraculous city that everyone looked up to. While his brothers fought tooth and nail for the throne, he tossed off a single remark: “The entire Southern Hemisphere belongs to me. Aren't you fighting over something a little too small?” From a barren wasteland to a force that stirred the world, he turned the tides with a wave of his hand and forged a true king's path: he never sat on the throne, yet he already ruled the world!
