Phantoms 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. --

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?
