The Heavenly Court’s False Sage

A dead college culture-war debater awakens in a xianxia realm as a high-ranking official of the Heavenly Emperor. Mistaken for a profound master of the Dao, he survives court conspiracies with vague probes, bad-faith leaps, rapid-fire claims, and radical analogies that his enemies reinterpret as brilliant doctrine. His inherited memories reveal a cultivation ladder, a realm gap he cannot cross, and a named disaster approaching on a deadline. Every misunderstanding raises his status while bringing the real danger closer.
