Sword of the Nether: From Discard to Emperor

In a chaotic era of four warring states, treachery and bloodshed are commonplace. The Gongsun clan is annihilated, leaving young Gongsun Xun as the sole survivor, burdened with a blood debt. Once a gentle child, he witnesses betrayal, schemes, and coldness, turning his heart dark. He goes into hiding, establishing the Nether Pavilion—a mysterious assassination and espionage organization. With dead soldiers and spies infiltrating courts and noble houses, he controls life and death, manipulating the world for a decade. He sows discord, overthrows powers, and exacts revenge, using cunning to conquer the realm. From orphan to master of the Nether Pavilion, he rules over all with cold blood and iron will.
