Reborn as the Forbidden Villain Sovereign

He died an overworked nobody. He woke up as the most dangerous name in history. Kang Daehyun was destined to become the greatest villain the cultivation world had ever seen — a Sovereign of darkness prophesied to shatter the Celestial Accord. There’s just one problem. He doesn’t want to be one. But the System does. Bound to the forbidden class [VILLAIN SOVEREIGN], hunted by three active execution orders, and given seventy-two hours before a massacre that will cement his fate, Daehyun faces an impossible choice: Submit to death or become the monster the heavens require. The stronger he grows, the more the System pushes him toward cruelty. Every villainous act accelerates his power. Every heroic act erodes his soul. A Saint-Paladin sent to execute him begins to hesitate. A former disciple hiding a forbidden dual cultivation risks everything to help him. And somewhere within the Celestial Accord, records of previous “Villain Sovereigns” have been erased. The System claims balance. But what if the real villain isn’t him? Power is rising. The countdown has begun. And the heavens are watching.
