Phoenix Blade

The Phoenix That Devours Fate

In the reign of the Yanxuan Dynasty (焰璇朝), where imperial bloodlines dictated destiny and love was a luxury few could afford, a defiant romance took root in secrecy. Bai Haofeng, a man of humble birth, lived by the ink and brush, dedicating his days to the pursuit of knowledge. Though his life was unremarkable in the eyes of nobility, his heart burned with an intensity that defied his status. That fire led him into forbidden territory—the heart of Princess Lumin, daughter of Emperor Janxu (焰旭帝). She was a woman of unparalleled grace, raised within the confines of the palace, where duty overshadowed personal desire. From birth, she had been promised to a nobleman she had never laid eyes on, her future carved into stone before she could shape it herself. But fate unraveled when she met Haofeng, a man whose presence ignited something within her—a longing not for riches, but for freedom. Bound by love yet pursued by fate, they made a choice no one dared—they vanished. Without a trace, they left behind the palace’s golden cages and disappeared into obscurity, choosing a life where love reigned over obligation. The emperor's eyes never found them; the empire's reach never grasped them. They became ghosts, whispers carried by the wind, a legend murmured in the darkest corners of the kingdom. From their love, a child was born. Longzhuang entered the world bearing the weight of two legacies—one of nobility, the other of defiance. Yet, destiny was never kind to those who strayed from its path. His birth was both a miracle and a curse. With one eye of fierce crimson and the other a piercing green, he was seen not as a boy, but as an omen. Some called him a celestial sign, others a harbinger of ruin. Raised beyond the emperor’s gaze, he grew in the shadows of an unforgiving world. His days were spent in hardship, his nights haunted by dreams of a life he could not remember. Unknown to him, he had walked this earth before—not as a mere mortal, but as something greater. In another time, in another existence, he had been a dragon, a being of immense power, now forced into human skin with memories lost to time. The Yanxuan Dynasty was a nest of serpents, where betrayal wove through the halls of power and ambition disguised itself as loyalty. Longzhuang, though raised in exile, was no stranger to the dangers of the empire. He moved like a shadow, watching, learning, waiting—until fate inevitably pulled him back into the world he was born to challenge. Amidst the chaos of a collapsing dynasty, he crossed paths with Chun Guiying, a woman as cunning as she was beautiful. A courtesan by circumstance, a survivor by necessity, she mastered the art of deception in a world that sought to break her. Though they came from different pasts, their souls bore the same scars. Bound by fate, yet defying it at every turn, their destinies became entwined in ways neither could predict. Yet fate was never meant to be kind. With war stirring on the horizon, unseen forces awakening, and secrets buried in the ruins of forgotten history, Longzhuang faces an impossible choice—will he bow to the dynasty that abandoned him, or will he rise from the ashes and claim the fate that was once stolen from him? For the phoenix that divorces fate does not surrender to destiny—it burns it to the ground. --

A Blade Against Fate

No bloodline. No prophecy. No gods. Only will. In the kingdom of Azmoria, where noble blood dictates power and destiny, Aldric is nothing—an orphan abandoned at St. Ardin’s Haven, a nameless street rat fighting for survival in the ruthless city of Blackreach. He has no divine gifts, no legendary lineage—only his wits, his fists, and an unyielding dream: to carve his own place in a world that refuses to acknowledge him. Forced into the shadows of the underworld, Aldric learns the art of survival from The Broken Daggers, a notorious gang led by the cunning and battle-hardened Edric Ironcrest, a fallen noble who despises the ruling class. When a fateful decision leads Aldric to infiltrate Castle Ravenshade, he stumbles upon a secret that could shake the entire realm. But a single mistake costs him everything—he is caught. Instead of execution, Aldric’s defiance intrigues Lord Darius Valmont, the ruler of Azmoria, and Master Lucian, a former Swordsmaster of the empire. In him, they see potential—a mind sharpened by hardship, a survivor unbroken by fate. But potential alone means nothing. As rebellion brews and powerful forces move unseen, Aldric is thrust into a brutal game of war, politics, and deception. He will either be crushed beneath the weight of fate or rise, blade in hand, to defy it. Because in a world where strength is law and destiny is dictated by kings and conquerors, Aldric will prove that even the most insignificant can wield a blade against fate.
