Lin Fan has only just transmigrated to the Great Shuo Dynasty when he finds a wife amid a crowd of refugees. At the same time, his colleagues set their sights on her. To protect his loved ones, he kills a vicious soldier and rises from a beacon tower, fighting his way across the frontier until he becomes a borderland overlord commanding a mighty army.
But the Great Shuo is rotten to the core. The powerful fight over their own interests and treat the common people like dogs.
Lin Fan sits tall on his horse, sword pointed at the imperial court:
If you care for the people and protect them, I will secure and expand your borders, defending your vast realm!
If you are corrupt and unjust, abandoning the people, I will lead my army into the capital, restore order, and give the people an age of peace and prosperity!
