The Villain's Ledger Has No Heroes

To the world, Shen Qiao is a disgraced imperial clerk condemned for questioning a holy miracle. To the powerful sects that engineered it, he is an inconvenient witness who must die. But an extraordinary ledger reveals the hidden debts behind every supposedly righteous act: stolen years, concealed suffering, and the people who profited. Shen can demand confession or restitution, yet every false accusation costs him a precious memory, and settling one debt may burden someone else. With his sister's future at stake, he starts collecting evidence against saints, magistrates, and the imperial court itself. When even Heaven has unpaid debts, who gets to call themselves a hero?
