Phoenix Emperor

Meet Li Wei, a history loving grad student with the worst luck in the modern job market. He's dreamed his whole life about changing society maybe even becoming a wise leader in some ancient dynasty. His favorite era? Ancient China, of course, with its brave heroes, clever warlords, and fascinating politics. Only problem? There’s no job for “aspiring historical visionary” in the classifieds. But one day, fate steps in. After a (heroic, if he does say so himself) rescue of a little girl from an oncoming car, Li Wei opens his eyes… to find himself staring up at the ceiling of a palace. Turns out he’s been reincarnated as an 18 year old emperor in a world that looks suspiciously like ancient China, but with a twist. And guess what? The kingdom’s in shambles. There’s corruption everywhere, taxes are sky high, commoners are struggling to survive, and his court treats him like an adorable but useless figurehead. Most people would freak out, but not Li Wei. This is his chance. Armed with his love for history, a little bit of modern knowledge, and a healthy dose of sarcasm, Li Wei is determined to make some big changes. He’s going to pull his kingdom out of the mud, whether his scheming advisors and grumpy generals like it or not. Along the way, he’ll build an army, make new friends (and enemies), and maybe just maybe become the kind of ruler everyone fears but secretly loves. Get ready for a comedic adventure full of witty one liners, dramatic reforms, and plenty of awkward encounters as Li Wei attempts to turn his impossible dream into a hilarious reality. This emperor’s got his work cut out for him, but he’s not backing down. After all, it’s not every day you get a second chance to rule a kingdom, right?

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of an immortal vessel. Thus, through pain and flames, I forged it. "From death through flames, to life again, the Heavens will forge, an eternal man!" *** He was once but a man, a young one from Earth, a man that crossed over to another world. After a long string of both fortunate and unfortunate events, he was killed, only to be resurrected by the powers of a Phoenix. Gerald, in his eternal pursuit of power, went and joined a Sect of powerful Cultivators where he learned to properly use his newly gained magic powers in the unfamiliar world, and with a tiny compounding advantage, began to dominate his enemies. He pursued not strength, money, or women, though those too were gained along the way, instead, he craved a body to withstand and witness the end of the world. "What use is money without a long life to enjoy it? What use are the fancy sword techniques and mystic arts, if you can’t take a hit? How many mistakes can one make, before a mortal wound brings them down? It takes just one, and you never see it coming." *** Join, and follow the story of Gerald Fireborn as he explores his new world, pursuing immortality at any cost while avoiding succumbing to death for the second time. PS: Although the story is a continuation of the previously completed book Black Onyx – Forgotten Magic, NO KNOWLEDGE OF THE PREVIOUS STORY IS REQUIRED! The book is written to be enjoyed on its own, so yeah... Enjoy!

Heaven, hell, and the world themselves have forgotten a prominent figure that once stood at the pinnacle. Alas, the said figure himself forgot who he was. Lyon is a young man who lived a leisurely life on earth. Not much was said except that he enjoyed such a life.

He is met with a beautiful woman who rumbled the earth and cracked the very firmament under the mortals' eyes. Selena is her name. She claimed to be his wife, the first one of three. However, their meetings didn't last long due to circumstances that he has yet understood. With one wedding ring on his finger that contained half of his past power, he sets forth to find Cecile, the woman whom Selena said is a queen in Blue Continent, the other wife that he adored then. But, he lacked focus at times, and combined with his whimsical nature, he often finds himself, in unusual situations.

His arrival in this world has rotated an old cog of fate that those old monsters and old kings in the ages of the ancients, would have never guessed to be working again.

Now, I know what you're thinking, “is this another superhero story where the heroes always beat the bad guys and are over dramatic. Or the villains always beat the good guys and are over dramatic?”. I know, I know— the stories gets kinda boring after a while when the heroes or villains always win. Well, sorry to disappoint you but this is that type of story. But this is where there are no heroes saving the day or the villains ruling the world. No, this is the story about in between the line, the small grey line that no one sees but is always there. The grey line you can cross at any moment. This is about the story where the Vigilantes— the anti-heroes win. The villain’s to the heroes, the nightmares to the villain’s, the guiding light to the people who can’t defend themselves when no hero is there to save them. The True Heroes. The Heroes that can either win or lose, but ultimately still win because that’s what people want in a story.

After a brutal coup wipes out the royal family of House Silverleaf, Prince Arin is thrust into the role of Emperor, a position he never desired. In the decadent and corrupt empire of Elaria, Arin—a trap with an alluring beauty—must navigate a treacherous court filled with nobles who feign loyalty while secretly plotting against him. Many ambitious lords and ladies outside the capital yearn to usurp the throne or carve out their own kingdoms, viewing Arin as a mere puppet in a game of power. Determined to gain control over his fractured empire and find the person responsible for the assassination of his family—especially his beloved mother, the only one who ever truly loved him—Arin must tread carefully in a society where status and influence mean everything. In Elaria’s sexually liberated society, open intimacy during court proceedings is a privilege reserved solely for the Emperor, making Arin both an object of desire and a target for manipulation. Among the common people, public displays of affection are neither encouraged nor criticized, treated with indifference. In stark contrast, nobles flaunt their desires freely, wielding their power without fear of repercussion. High-ranking nobles may engage in acts of dominance over others, while lower-ranking nobles risk being targeted if they flaunt their influence too openly. As Arin learns to wield his charm and seduction like a weapon, he must confront the pervasive corruption that threatens to tear his empire apart. In a world driven by lust, ambition, and betrayal, Arin faces a relentless battle—not only to keep his throne but to avenge his family and restore his empire’s integrity from within.

In an ancient world where celestial beings, gods, and monsters coexist, the fate of the empire hangs in the balance. At the center of this empire stands Emperor Yao Zhen, a ruler with a grand ambition—to not only conquer the world but ascend to the heavens themselves. What makes him different from all other emperors is the mysterious system bestowed upon him, a divine gift that allows him to gain immense power by conquering realms, devouring the abilities of others, and evolving as he progresses. Yao Zhen, born into a weak imperial family, ascended to the throne under tragic circumstances. With no real strength of his own, he relied on the strange system that appeared to him one fateful night. The system, known as "Heaven's Path," provides him with quests, abilities, and challenges that increase in difficulty, but offer unimaginable rewards. As he conquers enemies and expands his domain, he unlocks powers far beyond mortal comprehension—powers that allow him to control not only the mortal realm but the very forces of nature, space, and time. As Yao Zhen’s ambition grows, he begins to confront powerful enemies—other emperors, legendary warriors, and divine beings who guard the gates to higher realms. Along his journey, he gathers a loyal band of allies, from the cunning General Mei Lian to the mystical seer, Li Rong. But, with every victory, new challenges emerge, and soon, Yao Zhen must decide: will he rule the world for eternity, or will his ambitions drag him into a battle against the heavens themselves?
