Controlling

For three years, Adrian Vale has been the Sterling family's useless son-in-law, mocked and humiliated by everyone who believes he married Seraphine Sterling for her family's wealth. But Adrian's past is a lie. Three years ago, he entered the Sterling household with his memories partially sealed. He doesn't know who his parents are, why his childhood is missing, or why his supernatural bloodline was deliberately suppressed on his wedding night. Then, after one final humiliation, his Dragon Blood awakens. Adrian gains power—but also awakens something far more dangerous: the attention of the hidden force controlling Veyrith City. Virelle Sterling knows the truth, but she's too afraid to reveal it. The Sterling family didn't seal Adrian's power to control him. They sealed it to protect him. Now Adrian must uncover the truth about his bloodline, his missing memories, and the people who have been manipulating his life from the shadows. And somewhere in that conspiracy lies the mystery of his father. The man who erased Adrian's past may be the same man who fears what he will become.

After losing his job, his apartment, and the last bit of hope he had left, Ethan Cole finds a single dollar lying on the ground—his final piece of pocket change. But the moment he picks it up, a strange message appears before his eyes: [System Activated: The God of Ruin’s Pocket Change.] The system tells him the coin in his hand doesn’t belong to an ordinary person. It belongs to the God of Ruin, a being so powerful that even thousands of dollars mean nothing more than spare change. With the system’s power, Ethan can buy things worth tens of thousands using just one dollar, acquire companies with a few coins, and manipulate fortunes across the world. But every purchase follows one terrifying rule—for every gain Ethan receives, ruin must fall somewhere else. A billionaire might lose everything overnight, corporations could collapse, and entire markets may crash just to balance the price of his fortune. As Ethan rises from a broke nobody to a man who can shake the global economy with pocket change, he slowly realizes a horrifying possibility: he may not be the one controlling the system. Instead, the God of Ruin might be using him, and every coin he spends could be buying the world’s destruction.

Marcus Griffin was nothing but a joke at Elite-Star University. A poor scholarship student forced to scrub floors, run errands, and bow his head to billionaire heirs, campus royalty, and the daughter of a feared professor. He endured every insult for one reason—survival. Even the girl he loved treated him like a stepping stone to something better. Then, in a single day, everything was taken from him. Public betrayal. Public humiliation. His girlfriend accepted another man’s proposal in front of the entire class. His scholarship was revoked. His expulsion announced. His life erased. But as Marcus ran with nothing left to lose, the truth found him. He was never poor. He was never weak. He was the sole heir to the Griffin Empire—a hidden power controlling unimaginable wealth, corporations, and global influence. With one phone call, fortunes shifted. With one card, rules were rewritten. Marcus returned to campus quietly… patiently. Let them mock him again. Let them underestimate him. Behind the scenes, he dismantled empires, exposed corruption, ruined billionaires, and turned enemies into kneeling wrecks. From boardrooms to car shows, from classrooms to global markets, his revenge was precise, merciless, and absolute. They laughed at a pauper. They created a ruler.

He endured the insults of his mother-in-law and the physical torment of his boss, Chu Haoran, all while secretly using his genius to build his wife's company, into a billion-dollar empire.

In a single, world-shaking moment, the Dragon God System doesn't just wake up—it liquidates the ancient hidden reserves of the world's 1,000 largest sects. In less than twenty-four hours, the System transfers every cent of stolen "Spirit Wealth" into his account. Now he's the one controlling the universe, everyone operates on borrowed time. And Qin Ming is here to collect. He buys out solar systems, turns apocalyptic attacks into tax write-offs, and bankrupts cosmic empires with a single click. They thought they owned the world.
