Descent Of The Phoenix

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. --

Descent to The World of Chaos

Mary, before becoming the Child of Slaughter was nothing more than a weak and sickly orphan from a distant blue star called Earth. On that humble planet, she was unremarkable—just another faceless soul among countless others, resigned to a quiet and lonely demise. Her life was ordinary, fleeting, and insignificant. But fate had other plans Without warning, Mary was cast into the World of Chaos—a realm of endless darkness, chaos and destruction Stripped of the mundane comforts of her former life, she struggled to adapt, clinging to survival with her frail body. Yet no amount of resolve could shield her from the harshness of this new reality Eventually, the cruelty of her circumstances broke her. Her innocence was gone, and in its place, something cold and hateful took root. She became a machine of war—a tool forged by necessity, conditioned to kill, to survive, and to endure in a world that demanded blood and sacrifice But even in the abyss, there remained a faint glimmer of hope Mary encountered Ethan Bright, the Archduke of Dreams. He was the Perfect Being and one of the Four Rulers of the now-fallen Empire His very existence gave people hope that one day, the Empire would be rebuilt and that peace would return to this cursed world, but hope was never enough Calamity struck again and again. So as the years passed the burning star was eventually extinguished. As everything they tried so hard to perserve crumbled before them Faced with the inevitable end, Ethan Bright fell just like the others. The Perfect Being, the loving husband, the devoted father–he was no more. What remained was an empty shell, consumed by despair and madness. No longer the Archduke of Dreams, he became the Sin of Avaritia, a being consumed by insatiable longing and regret In his descent, Ethan embarked on a path of self-destruction, conducting countless experiments in a desperate attempt to change their predetermined future. In his madness, Ethan even went as far as creating the embodiment of Chaos itself, accelerating the death of an already dying world During this madness all those who sought to stop or save him fell one by one, unable to withstand the merciless path he had carved for himself And after everything that has happened, only one remained—Mary. She was the last tether to his shattered mind, the only constant in his spiral of destruction. She was all he had left to protect, the only reminder of the man he used to be Confronted with the weight of his sins and the irreversible consequences of his actions, Ethan became The One Who Wished, a being who chased the impossible—atonement for an unforgivable sin Consumed by regret, he desperately sought a way to undo the damage he had wrought. And yet every effort proved fruitless, but even then he pressed on, clinging to the faintest sliver of hope But at the face of an inevitable end, Ethan made his most desperate and selfish choice He cursed Mary with a twisted form of immortality–one born of his own shattered dreams and unyielding desire to see her live on. It was a cruel gift, an unbreakable chain tying her to a future that he has failed to protect Though he expected her hatred– though he deserved her scorn–Ethan still dared to hope. Somewhere in the depths of his broken mind, he wished for her understanding, for her forgiveness It was a foolish dream, but it was all he had left And so, Mary endured Iteration after iteration, their destinies unfolded anew. With each cycle, they changed—growing, learning, diverging from the paths that were once thought inevitable. This time, they would rise to confront the sins of their past, the burdens of their present, and the sinners across countless timelines Hopefully this time, Mary and Ethan would change their predetermined future As they face their irredeemable past and carve a new future from the wreckage of despair Though the question remained: Can they finally break free from their predetermined fate? Only time will tell
