When the once-prosperous Tang Dynasty collapses into turmoil, warlords rise like shadows across the empire, carving out power with blood and steel. Among them is Lin Jianyu, a young man hardened by a past marred by betrayal. Once the son of a respected official, Jianyu’s family name was destroyed when his father was falsely branded a traitor, his mother succumbing soon after to grief. Now exiled from the world he once knew, Jianyu has become the silent blade—his life shaped by the art of the sword and a single, unyielding purpose: revenge. Guided by his enigmatic mentor, Master Yu Bai, Jianyu learns to strike with restraint, honing himself into a weapon both precise and unforgiving. But when whispers of his family’s betrayer, the ruthless General Wu Ming, resurface, Jianyu’s disciplined silence is shattered. Fate seems to draw him back into the world of politics and power, a world he had sworn to leave behind. As Jianyu descends from his mountain refuge, he faces a kingdom in ruin, alliances shifting like the autumn wind, and a choice that could either redeem his family’s honor or plunge him into a cycle of vengeance that will consume his soul. To clear his family’s name, Jianyu must confront not only Wu Ming but also the question that haunts him: Can revenge ever bring peace, or will it only lead him further down a path of isolation and loss? Set against a backdrop of imperial intrigue and ancient wisdom, The Silent Blade is a journey of self-discovery and sacrifice, where the line between honor and vengeance is as sharp—and as unforgiving—as Jianyu’s own blade.

Discord: https://discord.gg/PX3xqJdZMY I closed my eyes with a sigh and let the needle slip through limp fingers. It wasn’t like anyone would miss me. They could always find someone else to beat or rape. The nothingness was a relief. At least now I have peace. Only...since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods? As one of ten heroes chosen by the Divine, I was sent to another world to fend off a demon invasion. But, the gods aren’t all helpful, and treat this as a game. Waking up in the magical world of Enusia, I found myself cursed and alone, clapped in chains and despised. This world was worse, far worse than the playground I so naively left behind, filled with betrayal, pain, and death. I've heard that the brightest lights cast the longest shadows. Perhaps, in this life, I can find if that's true. I'm tired of living in the dark. It's time to find the light.

Stories... They are one of the major essences of life -- abundant everywhere, yet barely noticed. Don't believe it? Think... That colleague of yours that recently got fired, do you think of them often? Regardless, their life is a story. The old man you saw while walking down the street, how is he now? You probably don't know, but he has his own story. That acquaintance you've always known to be an orphan? They definitely have a story. Finally, that web novel author whose writing you mocked? They must have quite a few, including their own (you might just be part of one). The difference is that the ones deemed uninteresting and clichéd are not seen, heard or read by outsiders. ------------------------------------------------------------------ This specific story is about a man who thought his life was decent - maybe even better than that with his recent achievements. And it truly might've been if the poor soul went unnoticed by the cruel hands of fate. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Try and read this newbie author's attempt of granting this man a story that would be considered his... and only his.
