Heartless Master

I transmigrated and went through numerous hardships to become an official, but unexpectedly, I was falsely accused by my superior and thrown into prison. 
Then, I awakened the Eternity Mirror and began the cycle of cultivation. I could solidify my fate with [Dao Fruit], ensuring eternal enlightenment about Tao. 
Using parallel worlds as a way to avoid calamities, I sought blessings in the real world... 
In the first life, I joined the Heaven and Earth Society as an important mission to resist the Qing Dynasty. I condensed the fate of [Righteous Thief], performing righteous deeds, striving to conquer my destiny. Faced with threats from the imperial court, there was a chance to seek good luck and avoid misfortune. I also became a disciple of the Dragon Gate Sect's Daoist, learning the art of the Corpse Immortal.
I condensed the fate of [Underground Lord], a third-class wandering ghost in the underworld without a ghost register or duties, the beginning of Corpse Immortals... 
What about the second life? I haven't decided yet...

Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds

After Chang Ji, the veteran general, stated his position, the others also decided to drop the matter.

They couldn't force King Xing Tian to betray his word.

Their thoughts echoed Chang Ji's. Even if Xu Xing chose not to form marital alliances with the gentry of Guanxi Road, thereby losing many benefits of rule, they, as ministers, still wished to serve such a loyal and honorable lord.

If they forced King Xing Tian to go back on his word, he might hold each of them accountable. The loss would far outweigh the gain!

As for the gentry of Guanxi Road... marital alliances were not the only way to divide and win them over. It was just that marriage alliances were among the easiest political maneuvers. If the gentry truly harbored rebellious intentions, could they really rely on a single marriage tie? Unlikely.
