Qin Embers: Gleanings

【Slow-burn time travel, no system】 At the end of the Qin dynasty, the world is in chaos, the land is torn asunder. On his first day after time travel, he was tied to a roasting spit and nearly became a meal for a group of starving savages. To survive, he decided to fall back on his old trade and eke out a living in the chaotic world. Then he discovered—the stories he made up seemed to actually come true! He spoke of a weasel spirit seeking investiture, and a weasel demon seeking investiture really appeared in the mountains; he spoke of the Four Saints traveling west to subdue demons and uphold justice, and tales of demon-subduing and justice-upholding really spread across the land... "Then if I speak of sword immortals and hidden sects, will seeking the Dao and immortality also happen?" He decided to give it a try. With the chaotic world as the shell, strange tales as the flesh, and human hearts as the bone, Li Shuai only wants to survive the chaos and prevent the old grudges of "Though Chu has only three households, the destruction of Qin will surely come from Chu" and "Do not let the old grievances of the six states flare up again" from repeating across the world. But he doesn't know—in the sky, there seems to be a pair of eyes watching this "somewhat strange" human world. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Qin Embers: Gleanings — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
