Brotherhood of Blades: No Mercy for the Brocade Guards

[No Saintly Heroics] [Decisive and Ruthless] [Dynasty-Building] [Martial Arts Cultivation]

Modern special forces soldier Lin Jin wakes up in the Great Sheng dynasty, having transmigrated into the son of a hundred-household officer of the Embroidered Uniform Guard in the capital. His father has just died a gruesome death in the Imperial Prison while investigating a strange case, leaving behind a bloodstained flying-fish robe and a final message: "This uniform devours people."

On the night Lin Jin takes up his father's profession, he awakens the Embroidered Spring Saber System. Kill evil men and slay demons, and with every enemy he executes, he can seize their purest martial cultivation and trade it for divine weapons, secret medicines, and even lost martial arts.

The dynasty is rife with undercurrents: the demonic Nine Nether Tower has infiltrated the imperial court, northern cavalry press at the borders, and in the depths of the palace, inhuman, eerie shadows roam. And his father's death is tied to a shocking secret powerful enough to topple the dynasty.

With the embroidered spring saber in hand and neither sorrow nor joy in his eyes, Lin Jin declares, "In this world, good people don't live long. So I'll become a living Yama King, one who makes even evil spirits tremble."

From prison interrogator to head of the Northern Branch;

From investigating a single murder to unleashing the Hongwu Case, a blood-soaked purge of the imperial court;

When the emperor on the dragon throne smiles and asks him, "Commander Lin, what do you want?"

Lin Jin rests his hand on his saber and gazes beyond the palace walls at the countless heroes of the martial world and the vast rivers and mountains:

"I want every crime in this world to have a price. Wherever my blade points, that shall be the law."
