Hunting Pili Villains Across Realms

After a lifetime of mediocrity, Wang Jingxing gets a second chance and turns his regrets into a blade. In his previous life, he retired in disgrace; reborn, he remains a lowly court clerk, hoping to live quietly—until Heaven's Dao knocks on his door. The once-ordinary man becomes an agent tasked with hunting down Pili villains across dimensions. With white hair, a Taoist crown, a snow-white fan, and a long sword, his journey through myriad worlds begins in Xinzheng: the Night Owl of the Northern Chen Dynasty lurks in the depths of darkness, the Nine Yang Heavenly Art incinerates demons, and the Ink Traces Eight Dances purges evil aura. An ordinary man unwilling to stay mediocre gradually evolves from a pawn into the one who moves the pieces. Drunk, lying in a small boat, dreaming of embracing the starry tide—in this cosmic chess game, he insists on being the variable. — Description from novelcodex.org
