Also known as: This Blacksmith Is in the Wrong Line of Work!
The Great Yong dynasty is nearing its end. Within its borders, aristocratic clans and sacred lands exploit the people. Beyond them, enemies surround the realm, intent on swallowing it whole. And above, demons watch over the Nine Provinces, ready to destroy the nation and lay waste to its lands at any moment.
But none of that has anything to do with Lu An, who transmigrated here. He's just the only blacksmith at the Demon-Rejection Pass,
responsible for repairing and forging weapons for the demon slayers stationed inside.
No one knows that ten years of smithing have forged Lu An's iron will and an invincible heart.
At that time, demons were swarming beyond the pass, as numerous as mountains and seas.
Lu An raised his blade against ten thousand demons. With just one man and one saber, he cut down a million demons and sent them fleeing in submission.
Later, the Heavenly Demons descended, unleashing a blood-soaked calamity upon the mortal world.
Lu An stood alone with his saber, holding the line before all living beings.
“You're just a blacksmith from the Demon-Rejection Pass. What gives you the nerve to face ten Heavenly Demons?”
“With the blade in my hand, I can uphold the realm, steady the mountains and rivers, slay demons, set the world right, and secure peace!”
At that time, Lu An ranged far and wide, and the Heavenly Demons' blood stained the sky.
But how could he know... the Heavenly Demons were nothing but blades raised by those in the heavens, blades used to reap the mortal world.
