Young Master In The Shadows

Rovan is a blacksmith, the lowest of the low in a world ruled by magic. Born without powers, he has spent his life working the forge, surviving under the iron fist of an emperor who takes everything—even the children blessed with magic.

Guided by a mysterious woman, a wise old master, and his own unyielding heart, Rovan becomes the protector of those who would otherwise be silenced. But with danger closing in from all sides, can a powerless blacksmith rise to lead a nation and stand against the might of an emperor who steals the gods’ blessings? Or will the flames of rebellion consume him and the children he’s sworn to protect?

"A man who gains power through pleasure, reborn in a life where pleasure is a sin." Yu Cheng didn’t sign up for this—a life of noodles, endless shifts, and envy was all he knew. But one cosmic fluke later, he’s reborn as Tian Hao 2.0, the spoiled young master of the Skyward Lotus Sect, expected to uphold honor and cultivate to greatness.

But in a world where pleasure seeking is seen as practically demonic, he’ll have to navigate scheming elders, puritanical sects, and a Celestial Overseer who might just be having too much fun watching him break every rule. Skyward Lotus Sect was all about discipline—until Tian Hao arrived.
