The Risen Ghost: Master of the Chaotic Origin
In the Great Yan Empire, the Long Clan stood as the pillars of the north. Their young heir, Long Chen,was its brightest star—a genius born with the "Primordial Marrow"—a gift seen once in a thousand years. However, his brilliance planted a seed of envy in the heart of most elders. On his sixteenth birthday, the heavens turned red. His family was butchered by a coalition led by his father’s sworn brother, Wei Jue, who tore what he believed to be the Primordial marrow from Chen’s body and left him for dead in the Forbidden God-Grave Valley.
Deep within the valley's lethal mists, Long Chen was rescued by Grandmaster Mo, a legendary figure who had ascended past the mortal realm centuries ago. Under Mo's training, Long Chen didn't just rebuild his broken body; he cultivated the "Chaotic Origin Scripture," a forbidden technique that allows him to devour the energy of his enemies and the “Heaven-Devouring Void Script” a relic from bygone age, capable of swallowing entire realms.
A decade later, a mysterious youth enters the capital. He carries no banner and wears no crest, but his eyes hold the coldness of a thousand winters.
The traitor now sits on the throne, believing the Long line is extinct forgetting that when you strike at a dragon and fail to kill it, it returns to burn your world to ashes.
Long Chen begins his march, reclaiming the Long Clan's ancestral relics one by one. To the world, he is an unstoppable force of nature; to the traitors, he is a ghost from the grave who has come to collect a blood debt that can only be paid in full.

Chapter: Chapter 185 (The ghost of a man who never died) Chen’s POVHan Jun's death was a mystery and now that mystery is pulling the greatest weight. The question lingered between us. Han Ruo didn’t answer immediately. He stared at the tea spreading across the floor where the broken cup had fallen.Finally, he spoke.“…I don’t know.”I frowned. “You don’t know?”He took a slow breath, adjusting his sleeves. "At the time, I was stationed at the northern frontier, protecting our borders against a foreign invasion.” His voice was calm, like a general giving a report. “Then, one morning, a messenger arrived.”His eyes grew distant.“He carried a letter bearing my father’s seal. There were only a few words written inside.”He looked at me.“‘Your brother is dead.” The room fell silent. “Attached to it was an order. My father instructed me to return immediately.”“I obeyed.” His fingers rested lightly against the table.“When I got back home. The funeral had already taken place.”He paused, exhaling slowly. “I didn’t see his body. I wasn’t told how he d

Chapter: Chapter 184 (Han Jun) Chen’s POVThe Palace had fallen into chaos by the time I descended from the rooftops. Soldiers rushed through the corridors with hurried footsteps, their armor clanking loudly as they shouted orders to one another.“Seal every entrance!”“Search the inner courtyards!”Officials hurried across the palace grounds, their robes gathered in their hands as they ran from one hall to another. Palace servants whispered in frightened voices, while maids stood huddled together, exchanging terrified glances.News spread faster than wildfire.The Crown Princess had disappeared. Her residence had been reduced to ruins. No one knew what had happened.At the same time, another wave of panic erupted from the Emperor’s private residence.“Move!” “The Imperial Physicians!”“Hurry!”Several royal physicians hurried across the stone paths, carrying medicine chests as guards escorted them toward Wei Jue’s chambers.The entire palace was in uproar, bracing for an invisible assassin or an imminent coup.Meanwhile…I

Chapter: Chapter 183 (Kings and King) Chen’s POVThe walk to Wei Jue’s private chambers was completely unhindered. I pulled my Qi back into the deepest depths of my core, walking past the outer guards like a ghost passing through a graveyard.Bypassing the guards at the door I pushed into his private study without alerting anyone and found him exactly where I expected.Wei Jue was sitting alone at his grand desk, quietly reading through a stack of scrolls. When he noticed my presence, he didn’t panic. He didn't even reach for a weapon.He simply… looked up.Silence settled between us. For several long moments… Neither of us spoke.Then, a tiny, knowing smile touched the corners of his lips."You’re alive."It was a classic Wei Jue response. There was no shock, no burst of emotion. He expected so much after all. "You're alive," he repeated.I didn't answer. I walked further into the room, the soft thud of my boots was the only sound breaking the quiet.Wei Jue studied me, his eyes scanning my posture. "The reports from my men said y

Chapter: Chapter 182 (Void siren) Chen’s POVSilence settled over the ruined courtyard, heavy and suffocating.Flakes of dark ash drifted through the air like black snow, settling over the shattered wood and cracked stone. On the ground lay the fragmented pieces of the black flute, split cleanly down the center.Shuyin remained on one knee. She wasn’t looking at the destroyed room, nor at the burnt curtains still smoking in the corners.She was looking at me.There was no fear in her eyes, but rather a profound, trembling disbelief. Her gaze drifted from the empty space where Lin Xue’er had vanished down to my hand, the one that had been wrapped around Lin Xue’er’s throat only moments ago. A few stray drops of that dark blood still clung to my fingers."…Impossible…" she muttered. Her lips parted slightly, her voice barely a whisper against the wind. "…A Void Siren…"She looked up at me again, her expression strained as if she were desperately trying to reconcile two completely conflicting truths. "…How?"It didn’t sound like

Chapter: Chapter 181 (Mirages of death) Chen’s POVI unleash whatever I had been holding back. There were no massive explosions of light. No screaming transformations. Just a shift in the atmosphere. The air in the room instantly grew heavy, dropping like a lead weight.Around us, the flames of the burning candles bent sideways, pinned down by the sheer weight of my presence. Floating dust instantly sank to the floorboards. The thick wooden pillars of the residence began to creak and groan under an invisible force, and the ambient spiritual energy in the air hesitated, completely freezing in place.Lin Xue’er’s mocking smile slowly faded.For the very first time since I had met her, a flash of genuine discomfort crossed her features. She felt it. The burning, suffocating intent radiating off me. It was a pressure forged from absolute anger, deep pain, and every ounce of hatred I had held back since the violent collapse of my clan.I walked forward, my eyes locked onto hers."Yesterday..." I spoke, my voice dangerously low, letting t

Chapter: Chapter 180 (Returning the favor) Chen’s POVThe next morning arrived with a quiet grace.Dawn filtered through the cracked wooden shutters of the safehouse, casting long, pale streaks of light across the floorboards. The chaos and tumbling feeling of the previous night had settled into a profound stillness. My body, though aching from the violent strain of the Void core, was mostly healed. Across the room, Yan Hu was moving with less stiffness, his deep gashes sealing over thanks to the potent herbs.We were all awake but spoke about what we had uncovered. The name Wei Wenzhi still hung in the air like an invisible fog, but for now, the silence itself said enough.I stood in front of a small washbasin, wrapping fresh, clean bandages around my shoulder. The wounds from the fight still ache when I move too quickly but it had healed more than it should. Yan Hu watched me from the corner, his arms crossed over his chest, his gaze steady and unblinking. Near the hearth, Wei was silently preparing a simple breakfast, the soft clink
