This scoundrel is a bit of a swordsman.

"You little slut, strong as a stunt, you play with incense by day and jade by night, punching Li and kicking Zhang like a tiger pouncing on a flock of sheep, scaring the people of the capital into a state of utter misery, with no one daring to challenge you."

Xiao Xingchen seemed to slowly awaken from a deep slumber. The rhyme that came to his ears was like a thunderclap, making him slightly astonished. Had he fallen into that illusory dream again?

The excruciating pain surging through his body like a tidal wave, constantly assaulting his nerves.

He clearly remembered having a farewell dinner with his college classmates last night. Since he had remained a virgin for four years of college, his brothers unanimously decided to make him a real man overnight. So he was pushed into a glamorous and decadent hair salon.

However, what happened next was as astonishing, just like a movie plot.

He has also dabbled in Japanese adult films; shouldn't the plots in those films be enjoyable?

Was her virginity brutally violated?

His thoughts raced like a wild horse, absurd ideas swirling in his mind.

It was all that damned alcohol's fault that robbed him of the chance to enjoy himself. The excruciating pain all over his body felt like a million ants were gnawing at him, forcing him to open his eyes with great difficulty.

When he looked around, he was instantly struck dumb, as if by lightning.

A huge cross stands like a pillar supporting the sky on a high platform made of bricks. Below it is a crowd of people dressed in ancient costumes, who wave rotten eggs and vegetable leaves in their hands and pelt them at them like raindrops.

He himself was dressed in rags, his hands tightly bound to the ends of the cross, and his legs firmly tied to the support frame below, in a posture exactly like Jesus's when he was tortured on the cross.

The rotten egg white splashed on his face, the icy sensation making him feel as if he were still immersed in a dream.

"Holy crap, this dream felt so real."

Xiao Xingchen couldn't help but ponder for a moment in her confusion, and then she truly fell into confusion.

Countless memories surged into my mind like a tidal wave, and the confusion I had just felt was instantly overwhelmed by this massive amount of information.

The excruciating pain in his head was like a sharp sword, mercilessly tearing apart his thoughts, leaving him utterly powerless.

The two memories intertwined and merged in the most brutal way, as if to tear his soul apart.

Xiao Jianren, a prodigy from the Nanling Sword Immortal family, was summoned to the capital at the age of fifteen and was granted the title of Prince Kaoshan of the Great Qian Dynasty.

This man has roamed the Great Qian Kingdom for decades, unkempt and indulging in his desires. He bullies officials above and oppresses the common people below, and is known as one of the Three Evils of Great Qian, along with the Lancang River Dragon and the Cangshan White Tiger.

Emperor Wu of the Great Qian Dynasty once said: "I am Xiao Jianren's patron. As long as he does not betray the country, I will let him do as he pleases."

His few words, like a thunderclap, shocked the world.

Emperor Wu even betrothed his eldest daughter to him at a young age.

Who is the Eldest Princess? Emperor Wu of the Great Qian Dynasty had five sons and seven daughters, but only the Eldest Princess was granted the title of princess. She was not only the first princess in the Great Qian Dynasty, but also the first princess in the entire world to be granted the title of princess, and was known as the Ghost Princess.

As for why the princess was bestowed the title of Ghost King, that remains a great mystery.

"I never imagined that I would be so powerful after transmigrating?" Xiao Xingchen was overjoyed. He thought to himself that his transmigration setup was top-notch. Just hearing the name of the Mountain King was enough to tell how powerful he was.

"But why am I tied up here?" He tried his best to process the memories, and soon found the reason, after which he felt a toothache.

Tomorrow is the grand wedding of the Crown Prince and his wife, but this guy named Xiao Jianren has the audacity to lay his hands on the Crown Princess.

Taking advantage of the Crown Princess's visit to the temple to fulfill a vow today, this scoundrel attempted to assault her and forced her to flee to Cangshan Mountain.

Ultimately, the Crown Princess was tragically devoured by the white tiger of Cangshan Mountain, an event that ignited public outrage. If this incident were considered in isolation, given his formidable reputation as the Prince of Kaoshan, he might have escaped unscathed.

However, it was the subsequent series of events that truly shook the government and the public.

The tribute from the Western Regions and the tax silver being escorted were all lost when they passed through Cangshan Mountain due to a riot by the White Tiger of Cangshan.

Legend has it that when Emperor Wu of the Great Qian Dynasty heard this news, he was so enraged that he smashed the plaque that read "One sword to suppress mountains and rivers" with a single palm strike.

It should be noted that this plaque represents Xiao Jianxian.

Such behavior is truly the act of a beast, utterly outrageous!

Even Xiao Jianren couldn't help but sigh, realizing that his original self was simply a beast, no wonder the person in front of him hated him to the bone and wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.

Now he finally understands, he deserves it!

However, he was utterly wronged at this moment. That beast was already dead, and Xiao Jianren was now a model young man with impeccable character!

"This start doesn't seem too good,"

Xiao Jianren felt a chill run down his spine and his heart sank. Even if he was the emperor's own son, he was probably doomed.

"System, are you here?"

After a moment of silence, Xiao Jianren cautiously probed, "

"System... Daddy... Living Father... Are you there?"

It felt as if a flock of crows flew overhead, and all around was silent. The wonderful fantasy of being immersed in the ultimate time travel just moments before shattered instantly, replaced only by fear and unease.

Clearly, this is not a society governed by the rule of law. In this feudal dynasty, there is no room for idle talk, and one's life could be in danger at any moment.

Self-preservation—these were the only two words that came to his mind at that moment.

Calm down, calm down, he desperately forced himself to calm down and began to assess the situation around him. Besides the agitated civilians and a large number of soldiers around him, there were two opposing forces confronting each other in front of him.

"Lord Chen, His Majesty understands your grief over the loss of your beloved daughter, but the fate of Prince Kao Shan still needs His Majesty's decision. Please do not disobey the imperial decree."

"Chu He, my beloved daughter was devoured by the White Tiger, her body never to be found. How can you expect me to remain calm? Even if it costs me my life, I will tear this beast to pieces today! You fear the Xiao family, but I do not. What kind of damned sword immortal family is this? They only produce beasts. The entire Xiao family deserves to be torn to pieces!" "And you, aiding and abetting evil, disgracing the Chu family's reputation. You are not worthy of being a descendant of the Chu family!"

Lord Chen, Vice Minister of Revenue, the Crown Princess who died was actually a daughter of the Chen family!

Xiao Jianren's memories flooded back, and he instantly understood the identities of the two people in front of him.

As for Chu He, he knew him all too well. Xiao Jianren was able to run rampant in Kyoto and always escape unscathed because Chu He was there to clean up his messes.

Chuhe was like a firefighter specially sent by Emperor Wu of the Great Qian Dynasty to clean up the mess left by Xiao Jianren. No matter what evil deeds Xiao Jianren committed, such as bullying men and women, forcing women into prostitution, or causing havoc in the village, Chuhe could deal with them cleanly.

It was precisely because of this that Xiao Jianren became infamous, inspiring fear in people and making him the most feared of the three scourges.

However, at that moment, a strange light flashed in Xiao Jianren's eyes. He suddenly looked up, his eyes revealing deep thought.

In the merged memories, he saw too many absurd things.

If these things are viewed separately, they seem to be just the misdeeds of a spoiled brat;

However, if we look at the big picture, everything that happened to Xiao Jianren defies common sense.

In the twenty-third year of the reign of Emperor Wu of the Great Qian Dynasty, Xiao Jianren was only fifteen years old when he first arrived in the capital.

That same year, the heir apparent of the Prince of Huaiyang spat on him.

Then, Chu He told him that this was a great insult to the Sword Immortal, and that anyone who insulted the Sword Immortal would surely die.

As a result, the Prince of Huaiyang's residence was razed to the ground the very next day.

In the twenty-seventh year of the reign of Emperor Wu of the Great Qian Dynasty, Xiao Jianren was nineteen years old. News came from Nanling that Xiao Jianren's father was suffering from an acute illness and urgently needed a snow lotus to save his life.

Snow lotus is a rare treasure, hard to find in the world. Only the Longmen General's Mansion had one.

The next day, the snow lotus was delivered to the Xiao family like a blessing from heaven, and the Long family disappeared from the world from that day on.

In the thirty-second year of the reign of Emperor Qianwu, Xiao Jianren was twenty-four years old. During the annual winter poetry gathering at the Plum Garden, he set fire to the Plum Garden, causing hundreds of casualties.

The thirty-third year of the reign of Emperor Wu of the Great Qian Dynasty.

In the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Emperor Wu of the Great Qian Dynasty, just like now, Xiao Jianren was only twenty-seven years old, but he harbored evil thoughts towards the Crown Princess, which led to the Crown Princess being tragically captured by a tiger, and the tribute and tax silver disappeared without a trace...

This is just the tip of the iceberg in the sea of ​​memories. Every time Xiao Jianren committed evil, Chu He was always there, like a shadow.

Moreover, even if it were just for a child, no matter how incompetent and tyrannical the emperor was, he would never tolerate such reckless behavior.

Moreover, the Emperor Wu of the Great Qian Dynasty in my memory was an unparalleled genius, completely unrelated to the word "incompetent". So why would he tolerate a young boy's evil deeds?

This favor has already surpassed the scope of a prince. Is it merely because Xiao Jianren is the descendant of a sword immortal?

Only then did he realize that the whole thing, no, it should be said that Xiao Jianren's entire life was full of strangeness. His seemingly carefree and unrestrained life was actually permeated with the atmosphere of conspiracy and intrigue.

Phrases like "using someone else's knife to kill" and "eliminating dissidents" kept flashing through his mind. Although he was a college student, he had also read "The Legend of Zhen Huan." Even if he hadn't eaten pork, hadn't he seen pigs run?

It seems that the original owner of this body has become a sharp blade in someone else's hands, or rather, the name of Xiao Jianxian has become an incomparably sharp knife.

However, to uncover the truth, one must first break through the current predicament.

"Chuhe, come here and put me down."

After reviewing all the memories, Xiao Jianren suddenly realized that with his status, there was no need for any fancy tricks; he could simply defeat them with brute force. The two who were arguing were instantly stunned, and Lord Chen was furious.

"Damn it, you still dare to think about getting untied? I'll chop you up right now."

With a clang, a gleaming blade was drawn from its sheath and appeared like a venomous snake between Lord Chen's neck.

The guards behind him simultaneously drew their swords, aiming them at Lord Chen's men.

"Lord Chen, I truly admire your courage, but you must know that defying the imperial decree will result in the entire Chen family suffering, which is truly a loss that outweighs the gain!"

"You... Heaven is so unfair! How could a wicked creature like you be born into the illustrious Xiao Jianxian's life!"

Lord Chen was furious, his heart was breaking, and a mouthful of blood gushed out like a burst dam. He then fell straight backward, like a candle flickering in the wind.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Jianren, who had been put down, shook his head and sighed helplessly.

He thought to himself: "The psychological resilience of people in ancient times is so fragile!" He was about to vomit blood. But had he ever considered that this person had just lost his beloved daughter? Who could remain calm in such a tragic situation?

"Please take good care of Lord Chen. As for the rest of the matters, have you taken care of them?"

Xiao Jianren, with an arrogant and disdainful demeanor, spoke impatiently to Chu Heyan.

"Yes, the Prince of Kao Shan will definitely leave safely. I will take care of this matter myself."

Chu He lowered his head and answered decisively.

The fact that he could easily resolve such a huge disaster undoubtedly confirmed Xiao Jianren's suspicions that Chu He was definitely a person with serious problems.

However, this angered the crowd. The onlookers already hated Xiao Jianren to the bone and wished they could tear him to pieces. Now that this incident had caused trouble, it seemed that the good opportunity to get rid of this scourge was about to be missed. How could the crowd below sit still?
