His ultimate goal isn't power or conquest, but absolute freedom — liberation from death, from the control of powerful lords, and from the confines of this world. Meet Wuyi, formerly a gangster's accountant, now reborn in a world torn between the Righteous and the Demonics. Gifted with a unique ability by the gods of his previous life, Wuyi possesses an exceptional edge in this new realm. While Wuyi yearns for a peaceful life, he's not afraid to become the villain that this world might need. Determined to secure his freedom, he's prepared to upheave this world, paying no heed to its moral divides. He will not rest until he attains the deepest desire of his soul.
"How did the beast manage to get here?" Wuyi questioned. Despite shielding his eyes with a gloved hand, he couldn't discern the boundary of the Wild Area. There wasn't a cluster of trees large enough to conceal even a deer for miles.
Far to the north, beyond the misty horizon and the mountains, lay the Wall that separated the kingdom from the Wild Area. Although the Wall had been breached in several places, allowing demonic beasts to roam freely into the kingdom, the Mistweaver Mountains had never been fully tamed. Yet here, in this region, wealth and power were supposed to keep such threats at bay.
"The usual way," Zhen replied softly. "Someone must have foolishly invited them in."
Wuyi pondered for a moment before speaking. "Well, they wouldn't have summoned brotherhood if there wasn't an issue. And we could use the work."
"It tore them to pieces," Jia interjected.
