One day, Apocalypse came to pass. It started with a fog that engulfed the world. Thick and heavy in the atmosphere, nearly unbreathable to humans and able to corrupt a soul. It killed livestock, pulled buildings to the ground and deadened the soil. After a month, shields were erected over major cities to keep it out, but by then humanity could no longer see the sun. Next, they disappeared - the citizens in shieldless towns and the towns themselves - completely consumed by the fog. And in their place came monsters, beasts that craved human flesh and blood and knew nothing but destruction. In a matter of days, only half of humanity remained. . . but they didn't plan on going down without a fight.

For years, Mikael Winston let the world believe he was nothing. He played the fool so his family would have one less person to fight over the inheritance. He buried his name, his pride, and everything he was capable of becoming just to keep the peace. Then, when fire tore through a burning building, he risked his life to save a woman— and paid for it with his face. The woman he saved married him anyway. At least, that was what he believed. One week was all it took for her to reveal the truth. She had gotten what she wanted: a fifty-million-dollar contract signed by his hands, her fortune secured, and no intention of staying married to the scarred man she'd once pretended to love. There had never been a real marriage. No vows that counted. No future together. Just humiliation. And somehow, through a cruel twist of fate, Mikael was legally bound to another woman instead—a young maid with nothing but a scholarship, a kind heart, and nowhere else to go. Like him, she had been discarded by the people who were supposed to value her. They laughed at them both. They should have been more careful about who they were laughing at. Because Mikael Winston was never the useless man they thought he was. The heir they buried had finally come home. He built Vivienne's fortune with his own two hands. Now, he'll tear it down the same way. Piece by piece. Deal by deal. Until her empire is nothing but ruins—and the only name anyone remembers is Mikael Winston.

They called him the greatest genius the Heavenly Ember Sect had ever produced. The youngest Holy Son. The future Sect Master. The man destined to stand at the summit of the cultivation world. Then, in a single night, everything was stolen. Branded a traitor to humanity, he was accused of secretly cultivating a forbidden demonic art that drained the life essence of his own junior sisters to strengthen his cultivation. The evidence was undeniable. The witnesses were his own martial brothers. Even the women he had sworn to protect testified against him.

The world rejoiced at the execution of a monster. Twenty years later... In the poorest corner of a small Town, a bedridden young man from the slums suddenly opens his eyes. No powerful family.

As forgotten memories awaken and a mysterious ember ignites within his shattered soul, the fallen genius begins cultivating from nothing once again. But this time, he seeks neither glory nor justice. He will uncover the truth behind the conspiracy that destroyed his life. He will expose every lie that turned a hero into history's greatest villain. And when the day comes, the sect that reduced him to ashes will learn that some flames never die. For from the ashes of betrayal... he will rise to the Peak.
