Xiao Che transmigrates into the Great Jing dynasty as the heir to the Prince of Zhenbei. Once the youngest Martial King in centuries, he is ambushed in the Northern Desert after military intelligence is leaked. His meridians are shattered, his power destroyed, and he is summoned back to the capital.
From then on, he spends his days fighting crickets and chasing dogs, acting arrogant and outrageous, and partying night after night.
Everyone thinks he has become a complete waste.
The emperor places him under house arrest, hoping to control the military power on the northern frontier. The spoiled heirs of powerful families humiliate him in the street, hoping to make a name for themselves by trampling him. A holy maiden of the Demon Sect infiltrates his estate, intending to seduce and control him. The Northern Desert sharpens its blades and repeatedly plots assassinations in secret.
No one knows that Xiao Che has a [Heavenly Book Jade Slip] in his mind.
His meridians are ruined?
It's merely a phoenix reborn through the flames!
He lays his plans in secret, orchestrates events from behind the scenes, roots out traitors, manipulates the court, gathers the martial world under his banner, and rises once more to the pinnacle of martial arts.
Years later, as he makes his final move, the world is thrown into turmoil with a single gesture.
Emperor Jinghe: !??
Northern Desert: !!?
Demon Sect: !!!
"Weren't you supposed to be a useless heir? How did you turn around and end up ruling the world!?"
