Chapter 1 Awakening on a Concrete Floor
His eyelids moved slowly, feeling as heavy as lead plates that had rusted for centuries. As his vision began to focus, the first thing to greet Li Wei was no longer the blue sky of the White Cloud Sect or the soothing aroma of incense, but the stench of damp concrete walls and the remnants of sewage seeping from the basement ceiling.Li Wei tried to draw a breath, but his lungs immediately rebelled. The air in this place felt toxic, filled with metallic particles and a pollution that was foreign to him. Furthermore, Qi—the spiritual energy that should have been abundant in the universe—felt incredibly thin here, nearly parched, as if this world were an energy desert."Three hundred years ...." he whispered softly. His voice was hoarse, like the friction of two sharp stones.He tried to move his fingertips. Stiff. Every joint in his body felt like an old door hinge that had never been oiled. He remembered entering a State of Hibernation to heal his soul's wounds after the great war, bu
Chapter 2 Contract on Paper
Onyxa Storm did not waste time on pleasantries. The moment her Louboutin heels touched the creaking wooden floor of the orphanage, she frowned. The smell of rotting wood and cheap floor cleaner seemed to offend her senses, which were accustomed to the scent of white musk and luxury. Her eyes swept across the cramped room with undisguised disgust, as if she were walking over a heap of trash rather than through a human residence."The vibes in this place are absolutely suffocating," Onyxa muttered, her voice cold and sharp, cutting through the silence like a scalpel. She turned toward the still-trembling Tamsara, then shifted her gaze to Li Wei, who stood tall in the center of the room.Li Wei did not budge. He observed the woman before him with a calmness that was unnatural for someone who had just awakened from a three-century slumber. In Li Wei’s eyes, Onyxa was not merely a beautiful woman in a designer suit that hugged her slim body. He saw further. There was a blockage in the flow
Chapter 3 The Gala of Humiliation
Onyxa fell silent for a moment, her lips parted slightly but no words came out. That golden flash in Li Wei’s eyes had left her momentarily stunned. She blinked repeatedly, trying to convince herself it was merely a reflection of the Brooklyn streetlights through the limousine window. However, the prickle of ice at the nape of her neck felt far too visceral to be a mere trick of the light.The limousine glided through the frantic pulse of Manhattan traffic. Li Wei stared out the window, observing the skyscrapers that seemed to pierce the dull, starless night sky. To him, this landscape was far more alien than any forbidden forest of his past. This concrete jungle possessed no soul; it was merely a labyrinth of electrical cables and engine exhaust."Listen to me very carefully," Onyxa’s voice cut through the silence, her tone reverting to one of cold authority. "We’re being dropped off at the main entrance. You don’t say a word unless someone asks you a question. And if they do, keep y
Chapter 4 A Strange House
Ulricth Pax, the old man whose hair had turned perfectly white, continued to stare at Li Wei with an intensity that seemed capable of piercing through concrete. The trembling in his hands wasn't from age, but from pure shock. In a world that had forgotten the art of cultivation and only worshipped numbers on a stock exchange screen, seeing the Western Heaven Seal Ring was like seeing a ghost from mythology come to life.Li Wei remained motionless. His face was as flat as the surface of a lake in winter. He could feel the sharp gaze of Onyxa Storm standing beside him, filled with suspicion and suppressed embarrassment. To Onyxa, this was just another sickening moment where her "contract husband" caused trouble with an important guest."Mr. Pax, I believe you’ve had too much champagne," Li Wei said, his voice low yet possessing a resonance that made the hair on Ulricth's neck stand up. Li Wei slightly twisted the ring on his finger, a simple movement that actually released a small wave
Chapter 5 The Healing Touch
The fragile weight of Onyxa’s body in his arms made Li Wei frown. Cold. Her skin felt like ice pulled straight from a freezer, contrasting sharply with the perfectly regulated temperature of the mansion. Li Wei didn't waste time. He scanned the vast, minimalist room before taking long strides toward the king-sized bed in the center.With movements far more agile than his lethargic appearance suggested, Li Wei laid Onyxa down on the gray silk sheets. The woman's long black hair spilled out in a mess, framing a face now as pale as parchment."Tch, you’re really running on empty, aren't you?" Li Wei whispered softly.He could feel Onyxa’s pulse at her wrist—weak, irregular, and seemingly choked by something invisible. To a layman or a medical doctor, this might look like symptoms of extreme fatigue or a sudden heart attack. But to Li Wei, who had spent centuries understanding the anatomy of energy, this was a manifestation of 'Yin Bone Erosion.' The curse wasn't just an amulet under the
Chapter 6 Attack on Wall Street
"I was just about to close my eyes for a second."ounding heavy and raspy, a remnant of the energy he had completely drained to purge the Yin curse from Onyxa’s body. He leaned his head against the cold mahogany door frame, his sharp eyes observing Onyxa, who now stood frozen, her hands trembling as she gripped her phone. The light from the screen reflected off her pale face, making the dark circles under her eyes look even more prominent."Are you serious, Vaelara? Thirty percent in one hour? That’s impossible!" Onyxa’s voice rose, a hint of hysteria trapped in her throat. "Short-sellers can’t move that fast without an internal data leak! Who is behind this?!"Li Wei remained silent, listening. He didn't understand what short-sellers were or how numbers on a digital screen could kill a family, but he understood one thing: this was war. The difference was that 300 years ago, war meant the clashing of swords and blood splattering on snow. Now, war was conducted through underground cabl
Chapter 7 A Number from the Past
Onyxa was stunned, her eyes swollen from holding back tears as she stared at Li Wei’s wide-open palm. There was something in the man’s voice—an authority that shouldn't belong to a "leech of a husband" who had just woken from a coma. A momentary silence fell over the chaotic office, interrupted only by the ticking of the wall clock and the hum of the air conditioning, which felt increasingly cold."Are ... are you serious?" Onyxa whispered, her voice trembling. Her hand reached into her expensive blazer pocket, pulling out a sleek titanium-cased phone. "Li Wei, this isn't the time to play detective or the hero. Quoriel has already frozen all our access to liquidity. One phone call isn't going to change the billions of dollars lost on that screen."Quoriel Nightshade, sitting with her legs crossed in the leather chair across the table, burst into a mocking laugh. Her voice was shrill, slicing through the tension like a rusted blade. "Oh, God ... this is the best comedy I've ever seen o
