Taotie: The geniuses of the human race are all my bastards

In a moment of desperation, Taojiu awakens with the ability to devour magical powers and carries a fierce, unrestrained temperament. Anyone who tries to show off in his presence is quickly put in their place. Every defeated prodigy of the human race is taken under his wing as a counselor. But instead of offering sound strategies or wise counsel, these former geniuses devote themselves to concocting elaborate schemes to humiliate arrogant villains. When enemies lay out a carefully planned series of assassinations, his strategists casually dismantle the entire plot. When a noble family presents a façade of justice, the prodigies under his command tear through the disguise without hesitation. Taojiu fights through countless bloody battles, and with each breakthrough, he must endure the pursuit of the heavens and swallow the unjust shackles imposed upon him. In the end, with his band of eccentric thinkers, he sweeps across all lands and ascends to the throne of the eternal demon emperor.
