A River Runs Through It

"A coffin?" Alex mocked, his laughter echoing through the hall. "For me? You should’ve brought one for yourself, lunatic."Alex Carter’s cruel smirk wiped clean with a blade to Charles Carter’s screams as he loses more than just his pride, Jack is a man on a mission."You laughed at me when I was down," Jack says, his voice calm but cold.

But a devastating betrayal left him broken, his memories shattered, and his enemies triumphant. Reduced to a mentally impaired shell of himself, Jack became a laughingstock, mocked by his in-laws and dismissed by the powerful elites of Havenwood. "They called him a fool, a servant, a man broken beyond repair. Now, they’ll call him their worst nightmare." But Jack isn’t a fool anymore. His memories have returned, and so has his unrelenting thirst for justice.

In a world smaller than ours, walled by stone and ruled by steel, fourteen kingdoms fought endlessly to stand above the rest. For centuries, their wars raged until two hundred years ago, when Blitz, a western nation, rose to dominance with a military unlike any the world had ever seen. By the year 1100, Blitz had crushed its rivals and ruled as the largest and most advanced nation alive. Peace followed, but uneasily. Whispers claimed Blitz's soldiers wielded unnatural power, strength no mortal should possess. Power used to bend nations to their knees. Then came the vanishings. Villages gone overnight. Towns emptied of life. Survivors spoke of monsters crawling through the dark, of blood and shadows. Others blamed rival kingdoms. None knew the truth, only that war was coming. Far from the capital, deep in the forgotten forests at Blitz's edge, lay a small village untouched by politics or power. There, two sixteen-year-old boys hid a secret of their own, unnatural strength. Monstrous strength. A power that should not exist. And soon, their world was about to burn.

In a world where cultivation is the sacred path of body and soul, Lin Cang possesses neither. He awakens in the body of a young man with no meridians, no dantian, and no soul-sea—yet he lives. Shunned by the natural laws of heaven and earth, unable to walk the orthodox path, Lin Cang discovers a different way: the Dao of Form. Through mysterious patterns and ancient blueprints only he can perceive, he begins to reshape his own body—piece by piece, refinement by refinement—into something the world has never seen. In a realm of righteous sects, blade-wielding prodigies, and soul-bound cultivators, Lin Cang must conceal the truth of his existence while carving out his own legend. But the more he transforms, the more a question begins to stir: if he was never truly human to begin with, what will he become by the end? A tale of identity, power, and reinvention, The Puppet Dao blends classical cultivation adventure with a unique journey of self-crafted evolution. The path to immortality is written in flesh and spirit—but Lin Cang will write his in wood, will, and wonder.
