After a hundred cycles of reincarnation, all he needs to do in his final life is die at someone else's hands to take the final step toward invincibility across the heavens.
Falsely accused of flirting with the princess of the Upper Kingdom, Li Han takes all the blame, asking only to die. When the Empress offers territory to make peace, Li Han scolds her in front of the entire court, ready to sacrifice himself for justice. When foreign forces invade Daqing, Li Han stands at the border and refuses to yield an inch, facing death without fear.
The princess of the Upper Kingdom is deeply moved: "A righteous man like him should be recruited into my service and put to work for Great Yin!"
The Empress makes a quiet decision: "Li Han, the top scholar, is wholeheartedly devoted to his country. He must be rewarded with an official post and a generous stipend!"
The scholars and patriots of the realm declare: "As long as the top scholar is here, Daqing still has a glimmer of hope. He absolutely must not die!"
Li Han: "I... just want to die once. Why is it so hard?"
