Yeri was once a succubus, a powerful and irresistible seductress who fed on desire. Now reborn as a stunning young woman in the modern world, she must navigate the confusing collision of her human innocence and her demonic memories. One night, fate leads her into the path of Shin Keir, a dangerously magnetic and notorious CEO known for getting everything he wants—except peace. Their accidental encounter sparks an intense, uncontrollable passion, and a single night together changes everything. *** Excerpt: The dream had returned. Same eerie forest. Same surreal woman in the crimson dress. But this time, the setting had changed slightly. She now stood at the edge of a cliff made of jagged, glowing red rocks that resembled oversized rubies. Scarlet butterflies floated around her like living embers. A thick fog blanketed the area like some forbidden realm between worlds. She turned to him, her smile soft, sweet—and somehow tragic. She was heartbreakingly beautiful, ethereal yet forlorn, like a love story written in fading ink. Shin had tried to call out, but the wind swallowed his voice. As he stepped forward, the woman mouthed something. He couldn't hear her. Then, in a horrifying instant, her body tilted, and she plummeted off the cliff. The despair that followed wasn't just a feeling—it was a full-body, soul-tearing scream that never made it past his throat. Without hesitation, Shin leapt after her. He awoke convulsing, drenched in cold sweat. His eyes gleamed with a strange madness, a devil struggling behind the polished CEO exterior. *** Disclaimer- Places and characters are all works of fiction.

###This is a slow pacing novel! #Read the Prologue!!! [CONTENT WARNING: This work is intended for an adult audience (18+).

He was a quiet young man with calloused hands and an unnatural clarity — someone who seemed to understand the truth behind things without ever needing to be taught. She was his wife, a woman whose love for him was deep, fierce, and dangerously absolute. When the two of them finally awaken to Qi, they do not follow the ancient paths or bow to the heavens like others. Instead, they create their own method — a path of Dual Cultivation that binds their bodies and souls together in a way that defies the natural order. What begins as survival and growth soon becomes something far more dangerous. Because the world outside their small village does not tolerate anomalies. As their power grows, so does the attention of ancient sects, powerful clans, and ambitious cultivators who would rather see them dead than let them rise. But what they fail to understand is that the real threat has never been Zhì Yuǎn alone. It has always been the woman standing beside him — the one willing to burn the world if it means protecting what belongs to her. Zhì Yuǎn was never meant to be a hero. He never received a divine mission or a heavenly mandate. He simply chose to walk forward. And Yù Qíng chose to make sure nothing would stand in his way.

In the 170th year of Yong’an of the Great Wei Dynasty, a secret scandal broke out within a princely household, one that shook both the imperial court and the immortal sects alike. The only son of the Northern Garrison Prince, infamous throughout the realm as utterly worthless and rotten to the core, was in truth the lowly son of a stable slave, switched at birth years ago by the Demonic Sect. The real heir, meanwhile, turned out to be a true disciple of a Sage, newly appointed top Scholar, having already cultivated a breath of Righteous Qi of the Vast Heavens. For a time, all of Great Wei erupted in jubilation. People everywhere congratulated the princely household on rectifying the origin and returning to the source, on finally recovering their qilin-born prodigy. ....... “Yeah, it really is worth celebrating, if only this so-called fake heir weren’t me.” Gu Fangchen faced the Northern Garrison Prince and the true heir who had come to confront him, then glanced at the randomly assigned profession hovering above his head: [Emperor (1 day)] [Skill One: Mandate of Heaven (Passive)] [Skill Two: Power of Life and Death (Active)] That year, the Northern Garrison Princess Consort was still gentle as water, doting on her child to the point of indulgence. The Eldest Princess was cold as frost, proud and aloof, a single smile worth a fortune. The Younger Princess was sweet, foolishly adorable, obsessed with heroic young knights, and most of all despised shameless villains. The Grand Princess struck fear across battlefields as a peerless war god. The female State Preceptor could overturn clouds and rain with a mere turn of her hand. The moment Gu Fangchen opened his eyes, he knew it: He had transmigrated to become an emperor. Those who follow me shall prosper. Those who oppose me shall perish.

Every civilization believes it has reached the summit. Until it discovers a higher mountain. Across countless worlds, nations rise from ash, conquer the impossible, and call themselves eternal. They tame the seas, command the skies, bend the laws of magic and science alike, and proclaim themselves the pinnacle of creation. They are always wrong. For beyond every horizon lies another civilization. Beyond every victory waits another struggle. Beyond every age of peace stands another Gate. When the Gates awaken, worlds do not simply wage war—they collide. Ideas clash with ideologies. Science challenges magic. Faith confronts reason. Kings stand beside engineers. Cultivators face Elementalists. Entire civilizations become the champions of their people, fighting not merely to survive, but to prove that their way of life deserves to shape the future. Some worlds perish. Some evolve. A rare few transcend. This is not the story of a chosen hero destined to save the world. It is the story of worlds that refuse to surrender. Of ordinary people who shoulder extraordinary burdens. Of civilizations forged by conflict rather than destroyed by it. Because history has never belonged to the strongest. It belongs to those who learn, adapt, and keep moving forward. And somewhere, beyond the stars... The next Gate has already begun to open. --- A/N I admit that i am a lazy bastard who cant type out the novel myself but one thing is that the ideas and plot is mine i spent months on the world building alone let alone the characters so read and enjoy yourself (:

Aelon got infected with the nightmare spell at thirteen years old. As a frail outskirts rat, with an underdeveloped body and no prior combat training he gets sent into his first nightmare. It was a colosseum. He had to fight to the death. When Aelon checked his runes, he discovered he had a sacred aspect. But to use it, he had to survive his first nightmare first. This is an Alternate Universe with two new OC's. Lyra had gained a divine aspect. Normally one would rejoice, but her flaw took all the joy away. It changed her. She no longer felt guilt, compassion or anything that would make her share emotion with other people. In her first nightmare she got a weird inheritance. The lineage of the heart god. A/N: Both OC's are made to be together in a relationship, so there will be some emphasis on romance. The MC stays Aelon though, although we will get a few POV chapters from other characters like Nephis, Sunny, or Lyra

What if the only way to save the world… was to break it? Dominic grew up worshiping the Monarchs and the Mage Emperor—the legendary team who ended a five-hundred-year war and forged an age of peace.

To change it, he will have to tear down everything he once believed in—and risk becoming something far worse than the evil he seeks to destroy.
