Story
Abe Tatum is a transmigrating Great Emperor who lives quietly at Azure Cloud Peak, hiding his strength. He craves nothing but calm days, yet his system saddles him with three problem people: a reborn empress, a rowdy troublemaker, and a girl plagued by misfortune. He tries to keep a low profile, but schemes, grudges, and heavenly karma keep pulling him back into trouble. The danger grows when his home and disciples face serious peril.
