For a thousand years, the cultivation world has been under the dominance of women, a consequence of a heavenly curse that stripped all men of their ability to cultivate. Men live as second-class citizens, while female sects, matriarchal kingdoms, and Saintesses hold full control over the world's destiny. Amidst this deep-rooted order, an ordinary man named Li Feng unexpectedly awakens the Ancient Yang Core, long lost to history. The awakening of this primordial core not only restores his ability to cultivate but also makes him the only man in the entire realm capable of doing so—an anomaly that shakes the very foundations of the world. Li Feng's unique existence soon draws unavoidable attention when it is discovered that female cultivators who train with him experience a drastic surge in energy and unprecedented cultivation speed. This phenomenon transforms Li Feng from a social outcast into an object of intense desire as well as a major threat. Saintesses from holy sects see him as a tool to achieve their sacred goals; the Demon Queen desires him for personal power and her ambition to challenge the dominance of the holy sects; while the Dragon Princess views him as a cultivation partner with the potential for a deep bond or even greater personal ambitions. Li Feng, who was originally just an ordinary man thrown into a vortex of power, must learn to navigate political intrigue, dangers lurking around every corner, and the temptation of the power within him. He will be forced to choose a path among the factions fighting over him, each with its own agenda and morality. As he grows in strength and understanding, Li Feng begins to uncover the secrets behind the ancient heavenly curse and the true connection between his Ancient Yang Core and the greater destiny of the world.

Alex was reborn into Blue Star, a world of advanced technology and modern comforts, yet ruled by the ancient, unchanging power of royal families. As a prince of the mighty Roshar Kingdom, he was born into luxury but cursed with minimal talent for the martial arts that defined this world's elite. Seeing the brutal intrigue within his own family, his sole ambition became a simple one: to avoid the throne's bloody games and survive a long, quiet life of privileged obscurity. That plan shattered when he was framed for a rebellion he knew nothing about. Cast out by the king without a trial or explanation and abandoned by a mother who refused to even say goodbye, Alex was exiled to the Wall—the world's most feared military penal colony. As a low-ranking, seemingly untalented warrior, everyone believed he was being sent to a silent death. But the Wall was not a prison. It was the grim, hidden truth from the normal people. Here, Alex witnessed the real war: a daily, desperate struggle against nightmarish monsters, a crisis kept secret from the peaceful, modern world behind a veil of royal and Council lies. Facing the terror for the first time, he realized the world's cruel hypocrisy and his own terrifying fragility. Yet, in the carnage, he discovered a latent, macabre gift: the ability to harvest strength from the fallen. This power could change everything, offering a path to survival and vengeance. But even as he grasps this chance, burning questions haunt him: Why was he, the deliberately passive prince, chosen as the pawn? Why did his father condemn him without a word? Why is the true horror of their world buried beneath a facade of normalcy? Armed with a secret that could elevate him or mark him for death.

Jackson found no words to respond; he remained silent, holding the divorce papers. He felt numb, detached from the world around him. His wife's words and actions had left him shattered, unable to believe that their relationship had abruptly ended with no chance for reconciliation. As he stared at the divorce papers thrown in his face, he felt a sense of finality and loss engulfing him. He could only blame himself for everything that had happened – if he had been honest with his wife about his situation, perhaps things would have taken a different turn. Walking down the street lost in his thoughts, he heard his phone ring. Initially, he didn't want to answer; he wasn't in the mood to receive more bad news. But something in his gut told him to take the call. "Hello?" he answered reluctantly. "Young sir! Your grandfather informed me to contact you. 100,000,000 has been deposited into your account, and tomorrow your exile period will end. You'll regain control of your company, and the family is coming to welcome you back," the voice on the other end explained. Checking his phone, he indeed saw the deposited amount. Everything was falling back into place. Jackson replied hesitantly, "Tomorrow, I'll turn twenty-five." His mind returned to his old life in the palace and prestigious companies, where he was a rising star before being suddenly banished. He had always wondered when he would return. The voice from the phone continued, "Young sir! Your exile period has ended, and your companies are ready to welcome you back with open arms. We need you, Jackson – you are the heir to our companies, and we cannot do without you."
