A Void for Eternity
From the Shadow and Blood universe.
Rebirth should be a new beginning, but for Liu Weishan, it was a fate imposed upon him. Returning to his new life at the age of fourteen, he was shaped by the relentless discipline of the Celestial Council until he ascended to the title of Celestial Official — an honor wrapped in chains. Serving the heavens is not a privilege, it is an oath. Irrevocable. Unquestionable.
His first mission, however, tears the veil of supposed divine truths. A legendary artifact has disappeared, and its mere existence threatens to crumble both the Celestial Realm and the mortal world. To find it, Liu Weishan is thrown into a dangerous game, where the rules are as volatile as the promises of the gods. Accompanied by Lan Fengxian — a former Celestial Official in exile, bitter and full of secrets — he traverses paths shrouded in darkness, where the sky is not as pure as it seems, and allies are as dangerous as enemies.
But the real threat lies not only in the loss of the artifact, or in the forces that seek to control it. From the shadows, something greater watches him. Something that tests his ideals, his oath, and his very soul.
In the end, the quest is not just about what Liu Weishan can save, but about what he will be forced to lose. His ideals? His faith? Or the last fragment of himself that still believes in heaven?
