Su Licheng, the Crown Prince of the Su Empire, lives in a place that is difficult to reach. It has been seven years since anyone has seen Su Licheng. Thus, everyone calls him the Shadow Prince.

But is it the only reason to call him the Shadow Prince?

The Emperor, Su Zhenji, wants to bring Su Licheng back to the capital but has always failed in his attempts.

However, when one day the Princess of the neighboring kingdom, Yu Xiana, comes to the Emperor for his help in the great war, he offers his help to Yu Xiana on the condition that she will bring his son back to the capital.

Carrying a sword in her hand Yu Xiana entered the shadow city to defeat the five martial warriors before finally meeting Su Licheng.

~~~~~~~

"This marriage will not happen today," Su Licheng's voice roared as he ground the sword on the wooden floor, thus fearing everyone in the marriage hall.

Yu Xiana, who was in her bridal attire, moved her veil away. "Prince Licheng isn't supposed to do this on my wedding day," she stated.

"Did you forget your promise to me, Xiana?" Su Licheng arched his eyebrow and took slow steps toward her.

Yu Xiana frowned as he halted before her.

The next second, he pulled her up by her waist, shocking everyone in the bridal hall.

"You need to serve me all your life, Xiana," Su Licheng said while smirking.

~~~~~~~

The story has a rebirth plot. Su Licheng and Yu Xiana, the story's main protagonists, are connected by their past lives.

A story of two friends, unknowingly stuck in an immortal realm that is about to crumble, with only one way to survive - out.
Two complex heroes and their troubled friendship, challenged by the cruel world and internal struggles.
Be prepared for main characters being flawed and sometimes irritating, I am not looking to write another self-insert power fantasy. At the same time, I hope the characters will be relatable.... more>>

I am still writing, don't worry! I already wrote 25 chapters, I just want to finish book one before I publish.
The series is not dropped, I write for at least 3 hours per day.
The chapters posted aren't representative of what's to come. It gets dark. And weird. And the mcs will frustrate you, be careful! <<less

'I advance.'... more>>

That was the fundamental truth that Xiao Lee's cultivation was built upon. Never stopping and always cultivating was what made him the youngest Great Lord in history.

Yet it was not without sacrifice.

Friends who will not advance further have to be left behind. The strong rule, after all.

And then he ascended.

In a heaven that is beyond his wildest imagination; with wonderful technology and an impossible civilisation, maybe, in this new world where strength isn't everything, perhaps he can finally forge lasting friendships.

A tale of friendship, identity, and a young man who is determined to become an unparalleled (influencer) cultivator.

What to expect:

MC is at the peak of his world when the story starts but is at the bottom of the new world.

Ambitious and driven MC who doesn't want to leave his friends behind again.

Character growth both for the MC and the side characters.

Vast world with ridiculous power scaling.

No harem or romance.

Progression and cultivation! <<less

Will he be able to defeat his alternate self or will he fall to temptations and destroy the world? Only time will tell.... more>>

Long Ver.:
In a world torn apart by civil war, a young monk defies his righteous sect and takes up arms to fight alongside the very rebels his order opposes. His devotion to justice and freedom is unshakeable, but fate has other plans for him. In a moment of near-death, he is rescued by a powerful cultivator, only to find himself trapped beneath the earth for a millennium.

As the centuries pass, the demonic Qi that surrounds him seeps into his soul, corrupting him from the inside out. Now, he has awoken from his long slumber, but he is no longer the pure-hearted monk he once was. The evil inside him wages a fierce battle against his righteous nature, threatening to consume him completely.

Will he be able to resist the temptation of the darkness that surrounds him, or will his newfound power and corrupted soul lead him down a path of destruction? The fate of the world hangs in the balance as this young monk grapples with his inner demons and battles to save his soul. Only time will tell if he will emerge as a hero or a villain in this epic tale of good versus evil. <<less

Lan Sheng Zhe, "Excuse me, why is everyone wearing white in this town?". Zhao Cheng Yin, "Obviously they are mourning" looking at Lan Sheng Zhe's confused face Zhao Cheng Yin continued, "You see that?" Pointing at a mountain across the Yun river which was barely visible because of mist, "Seven years ago from today Zhao Cheng Yin burnt down that mountain. Seventeen years ago the mountain immortal found him abandoned by the river and raised him with utmost love. Who could have guessed that on his 11th birthday he would burn down the whole mountain and kill everyone? What a monster! He didn't even spare the immortal! That's why they say blood is thicker... more>> than water! What a pity, what a pity, hey hey!! I'm not done talking..."

By the time Zhao Cheng Yin finished talking, Lan Sheng Zhe had already left, all he could see was Lan Sheng Zhe's silhouette disappearing in the distance.

Clarification on the names of MC and ML.

Nick Name: Lan Yang (岚阳)

"I hurt, human children."
"I can take it from ye, if ye want."
"You cannot. He took them, and crushed them into blood. Take my hurt, you say? But it is all I have left of them."
Healer Yuen Sou Yuet has somehow found themselves saddled with a travelling companion, a gender-shifting, trouble-making necromancer. They're stuck with each other - Sou Yuet must undergo a trial to prove their worthiness as successor to the Yuen Mei School of Healing, whilst the necromancer essentially requires a parole officer after committing multiple crimes and continuously escaping imprisonment. 
And so the unlikely duo travel from country to country, investigating the disappearance of legendary creatures across the world. The farther they go, the closer to home some of their revelations are.

The world had watched him mature, yet now it looks on with growing concern. Na Wei, the disgrace of the Na dynasty, now stalks the many lands of Fanghu, his pursuits confounding wise men; his allegiance eluding the grasp of even divinities.

As if this isn't annoying enough, he picks up two stray dogs - a creepy woman who tries to kill him any opportunity she can get, and an overly enthusiastic young man who wants to be a white knight.

Book 1 - JiangXi (complete)

Molam longs to return home after successfully stealing from the Empire. But the enigmatic Oracle dangles it just out of reach, assigning him another task: to steal wood from the sacred World Tree from the Empire.

The task sends Molam to an Empire city on the brink of collapse, its inhabitants desperate to survive the impending Winter's Sorrow. United with a group of allies handpicked by the Oracle, Molam realizes he is the Oracle's last piece in a decades-long plan to thwart the Empire's relentless ambition to reach Heaven.

Entering the fray comes with lurking enemies, mistrust among allies, and lethal scrutiny from all sides. Continually at risk of having his lack of aura exposed, Molam relies on his wits to navigate powerful individuals with misdirection and a facade of powers. To obtain the group's help and trust, he must balance his new responsibilities against his deeper, more personal goals.

There is no synopsis for Book 2 going forward to avoid spoilers.

As everyone's attention shifted to the clock, its hands inching towards 12, a sudden and unexpected darkness swept over the room. A strange, otherworldly voice echoed through the engulfing shadows, "This will be fun."... more>>

And in that moment, everything changed.

...

"Let's see, for you... what about a game of chess?" the skeleton proposed, its voice a strange blend of ageless wisdom and playful mischief.

...

"The world is filled with uncertainties and choices," the skeleton began, its voice echoing softly in the void. "They intertwine in a beautiful, complex way – not entirely random, but not predetermined either. You're not completely free, yet not entirely a prisoner. To simplify... or perhaps complicate things, I'm setting you humans in a game. A vast game, by your standards. The 'why' of this game is for you to uncover, as is its objective."

...

“You’ve pondered it, but the true scope of this Game is beyond your wildest imagination…” A brief pause punctuated its point, “You are simply too limited in your current state to grasp its magnitude,” it continued. “No matter what strategy you devise, what concept you conjure, or what combination you dream up, anything within the realm of human creation or conception, even with your stats boosted a thousandfold, will not even remotely approach the complexity of the Game.”

...

"Your efforts may finally prove beneficial, Alice," her mother continued, her tone shifting as she broached a subject heavy with implications. "We have received an offer of marriage on your behalf. Richard, the Count's second son, has shown interest."

...

In the quiet, she schemed, her influence extending unseen through whispered words and carefully planted ideas. Her musings occasionally ventured to whether it was sight that rendered others so blissfully unaware of the deeper currents of life, or if she, endowed with an extraordinary mind amidst her physical limitations, was an anomaly in a world too shallow to fathom her depths.

...

Maybe, just maybe, her times of boredom were over.

...

Did the fact he didn't fight on the front lines mean he was a coward? The reality was he really wished he could. How could he not crave the adrenaline of wielding superhuman strength, of shouting as he faced insurmountable odds? He wished he had magic, he wished he could level up and be respected by friends and foes alike. He wished for it a lot. Fuck, he wished he still had his other eye and his arm. But reality was cruel; he was dealt a bad hand and had to make the most of it. He made his choices, his sacrifices, for the best outcome.
