The Ninth Abandoned One
The Ninth Abandoned One
"They abandoned me nine times. The tenth time, I abandoned the universe."
---
Abandoned at birth. Abandoned by his foster parents. Abandoned by his first love. By age twenty, Gu Chen has been cast aside eight more times—by masters, sects, blood, lovers, and finally his own children.
But each abandonment unlocks something within him.
A past-life memory. A cultivation breakthrough. A fragment of the hidden Ninth Law: Return—the power to bring back what was lost.
Now, with eight voices living inside his head—an orphan, a beggar, a soldier, a monk, a king, a god, a demon, and a dying universe—Gu Chen must descend into the Void itself to reclaim his original self.
And waiting in the shadows: Su Wan, the woman who loved him in his first life. She has watched him suffer for ten thousand years, bound by a deal she made with the eight immortal clans. She can never interfere. She can only watch.
But when Gu Chen emerges from the Void, holding the power to Return anything—or destroy everything—she will finally have to choose.
What do you Return? And what do you destroy?

A 60-year cultivation epic across two worlds, eight past lives, nine abandonments, and one impossible choice.
