Qing Shan Long. They say he isn't human. An escaped experiment from some government facility, a reincarnation of a saint, a freakish superhuman. Whatever he was one thing was clear. Be it Music, Martial Arts, Science, whatever he does he excels. He was a whimsical man. A great man. A man who craving for knowledge and excitement knows no bounds, whose collection of books and personal library would even make Alexander the Great green with envy. He donated to all manners of charities and funded many projects for helping the poor and disabled.

A self made man who single handedly founded one of the largest corporations in the world, Wen Qu Technologies, whose influences reach from vast fields of expertise. From objects of war such as the newest aircrafts, droids, and body armor; to life saving medicine and vaccines; to even the mundane such as video games and the fast food industry. A legendary example of determination and hard work. He was in his car being driven to a business meeting to disclose a deal that would help ensure the country could have access to clean energy and help reduce the pollution that has been plaguing his homeland for the past millenia when he was assassinated and woke up in a strange new world. How will Qing Shan deal with his new environment where the strong suppresses the weak? From the top of the world he suddenly finds himself free falling to rock bottom. Unable to cultivate, a weak body, and all but disowned by his family.

(For those who read comics and watch cartoons, imagine him as being Tony Stark, Richard Reeds, Jimmy Neutron, etc level of 'Genius'. )

My own spin on some familar tropes. Another reincarnation into another world story. The MC will take over the body of someone with a trash body that can't cultivate and will be hated and neglected by his family. Pretty typical so far right? Except there won't be some amazing miracle to heal our MC, there isn't some magical grandpa to teach him some OP thing which only his trash body can use, there isn't a hidden op bloodline, and he is not from a super amazing assassin clan or genius doctor. He isn't the chosen one, he's just a guy trying his best to make something with a crap situation. First attempt at a wuxia type story!

I like playing with common tropes, maybe adding a twist, to playing it straight as a classic. I have absolutely no idea where this is going to take me but please do give your input and I'll do my best so that everyone has a say in where our journey will go.

I'll admit the only knowledge I have of chinese history and ancient society is from reading light novels translated to english and some old dramas, so if I make some social passe just take it as because this is another world, not exactly an AU where magic and stuff actually exist. I'm also not actually Chinese and will basically using google to help me with names and other such, if I make a mistake please let me know!

(Even if you don't like the story or couldn't bare to get past chapter 1 please leave a comment so I can find out where to improve, thank you!)

    I enjoy this story. He doesn't run around killing everyone.  They don't talk about "face" all the time.  Not everyone is referred to as a "ten thousand year genius".  It's a nice change of pace.  I always look forward to the new chapter.

    wish fulfillment novel delivered poorly, author must be an ******* with no sense of pacing, story is all over the place with a bland mc, stories like this are usually fun to read if written properly but this novel is simple a masterful work of garbage not even worth reading to pass the time

    This story starts out really great, but if you are here for the calm, lazy and fluffy (with delicious rice, tea and cute pet) ambiance (like I was), you will be in for disappointment. Having read ahead in the raws, the MC's personality starts to resemble that of Warlock of the Magic World more and more (so if you love the ruthless, no loose ends-no sympathy-no nonsense MC, this is it for you).

    The translation quality really lets this magnificent story down (e.g. terms being left in pinyin frustrates me - as i don't know whether the translator is doing that because he is lazy or he is simply oblivious).I recommend the translator spending the time and putting in some effort to go back from the beginning and edit some of the terms used so the story can flow better and provide an overall better experience for the reader.

    Kid who was kidnapped at 3 years old, held in terrorist organization hideout and trained brutally for 6 years. Being beaten, forced to train, being brainwashed to be a mindless killer, being thrown into a room with all other kids and told 'last one to survive is free to go' and ends up being the last man standing. After all of this, SWAT raids the hideout and he gets rescued, not only does he have NO trauma, he acts like a grownup while talking with others, he trusts some random man to adopt him, agrees, goes home with the man and after 2 weeks of being there he GETS A FRIEND who is his age. How would a kid with past like that be able to trust anyone, not to mention make a friend? And to top it off, the 'friend' who is martal arts genius, who trained a lot, but only sparred, never had to fight for his life, somehow manages to fight the MC to a tie in a duel? The character design is very, very bad. His background is a massive plothole. No idea why the author would introduce a background like that, only to make the MC 'normal'.
