Meng Qianqian was married into the Lu family at the age of 15 to bring good luck to the old lady. On the wedding night, urgent news came from the border that her husband was ordered to go to war, and unfortunately died at the hands of the Northern Liang army half a year later. Meng Qianqian became a widow. Five years later, the husband who died in the war came back, with a mute girl beside him. Lu Lingxiao said that Wan'er was the descendant of a loyal hero, and was different from a business woman like her who was full of money. She was a truly noble woman. Lu Lingxiao also said that Wan'er was an eagle in the sky, and a delicate flower like her was not as good as Wan'er. It was not until the mountains and rivers were broken and the city towers collapsed that she killed thousands of troops with a red tasseled spear. Lu Lingxiao realized that he had made a mistake. She was not a delicate flower in a deep house, she was the strongest west wind in Yumen Pass.

In a world where one’s fate is carved by the quality of their Spiritual Root, Han Li is born with the greatest gift under heaven — the Celestial Spirit Root and Celestial Physique. Yet in the barren Mortal Realm, this supreme inheritance becomes a curse. Its divine structure cannot absorb the impure, thin energy of the mortal world. Instead of rising as a prodigy, he is branded a “False Root” waste. With no family except a mysterious white jade pendant and a grey, featureless tower, Han Li grows up orphaned and alone. But fate stirs when the enigmatic Physician Xiao discovers the truth buried beneath his “failure.” He brings Han Li to the hidden sanctuary of Green Valley, teaching him medicine, patience, and a slow-but-stable cultivation path. Yet Han Li’s life of hardship breeds paranoia. Fearing betrayal, fearing being harvested for his physique, he quietly prepares poisons, escape routes, and backdoors. His greatest enemy becomes his own distrust. That distrust shatters when true danger descends. Physician Xiao gives his life to save him. The man Han Li feared the most becomes the one who protects him the most — leaving Han Li with a scar far deeper than any wound: guilt. Thrown into the vast alliances and silent wars of the Seven Righteous Sects, he quickly learns that kindness is rare, and survival demands both intelligence and caution. Yet his path takes a turn when the jade pendant awakens, unlocking: a sealed space a message from the father he never knew and a fragment of a Celestial Land, an inheritance beyond knowledge. This revelation becomes a beacon — and a curse. When a Nascent Soul elder destroys his body, the tower activates its final safeguard, hurling his consciousness across worlds. He awakens in the Mortal Peak Islands — a forgotten edge of existence, broken and powerless. But this exile becomes his turning point. The higher purity of this land finally interacts with his long-dormant Celestial Physique. For the first time, he can cultivate — slowly, painfully, but truly. The “False Celestial” begins to awaken. From the Mortal Realm to the Spirit World, Immortal World, and beyond, Han Li claws upward, realm by realm. Each world provides the energy his physique requires. Each enemy awakens more of his sealed inheritance. Each betrayal teaches him the mistakes his younger self made. What was once a curse becomes his towering advantage — a divine engine that grows stronger the further he climbs. This is the saga of a divine seed forced to grow in barren dirt, clawing through stone toward the heavens where it belongs. Across 5,000 chapters, Han Li rises from a hunted orphan to a sovereign capable of reshaping destiny itself. He was born with the power of heaven in a world too small to nourish it. This is his journey — from ashes… to a Throne Beyond Mortals .

Two young men who can’t stand each other… forced into one long journey that will change everything.

In Vespera, power is decided at birth—by noble bloodlines, divine favour, and the strength of one’s magic. Ronan has none of it. An orphan with a single fire affinity and a shallow mana pool, he’s the last person anyone expects to matter in the hallowed halls of Serenwyn Magic Academy. But Ronan carries something far more dangerous than talent: an unyielding will, a body honed into a weapon, and a rage he has sworn never to unleash. That vow is tested when a “harmless” perception skill turns out to be cursed—showing him visions of a forgotten war between gods and mortals. At the same time, an ancient, sinister flame merges with his soul, granting him terrifying power at the cost of his sanity. As nightmares bleed into reality, Ronan is drawn into a hunt for the truth—through corrupted lands, lost histories, and enemies who would see his mind broken. To protect his found family, Samantha and Kairos, he will have to wield the very fury he fears, risking the one thing he cannot replace: his humanity. The gods measure worth by birthright. Ronan will prove them wrong. Because some strength comes not from magic, but from a will strong enough to defy the world itself.
