Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Betrayed. Ruined. Reborn. Austin was the undisputed top genius of the Roaring Heaven Sect, a legendary beast tamer who bled for three agonizing years to elevate his clan into royalty. But the very moment they grasped ultimate power, loyalty was traded for ruthless ambition. His aristocratic fiancée, Vivian, alongside her cold-blooded family, betrayed him without hesitation. They ruthlessly pierced his dantian, shattered his cultivation, and ripped his Grade-9 Astral Phoenix soul straight from his flesh to graft it into her body. Cast out like garbage into the freezing, bone-chilled Ashen Graveyard during a howling blizzard, Austin lay dying among the skeletons of forgotten monsters. But as his heart gave its final desperate beat, his blood boiled, awakening a forbidden primordial lineage. TABOO BLOODLINE AWAKENED: THE COSMIC DEVOURER SYSTEM CORE INITIALIZED: YOU NO LONGER TAME BEASTS. YOU EAT GODS. Reconstructed with a swirling vortex of infinite gravity, Austin’s first system pull grants him a tiny, translucent Void Slime. When a mountain-sized, Tier-10 Ghost Emperor Dragon tears through space to annihilate him, the tiny slime unhinges its jaw to swallow the sky whole—devouring the dragon and skyrocketing Austin’s power straight to the Golden Core Realm. Yet, this massive surge of energy alerts the Higher Planes. Three god-level assassins are now descending to hunt him down, leaving Austin with a strict seven-day ticking clock to prepare. To survive, Austin conceals his terrifying new power, assuming the role of a bruised, broken, level-one trash cultivator. While Vivian and her clan arrogantly celebrate his death and auction off his ancestral legacy, the ultimate monster slips back through the city gates. They stripped him of his beast soul, so he will feed them to his gods. The real hunt has just begun.

Dr. Michael thought he had it all, a dedicated medical career, a ten-year marriage to the powerful chairwoman of Sterling Enterprise, Susan, and two children he adored. But when a quiet suspicion leads him to run a series of secret DNA tests, his picture-perfect life shatters: his seven-year-old son, Leo, is not biologically his. Confronted with undeniable scientific proof from dozens of accredited labs, Susan fiercely denies any infidelity, claiming the reports are fake and clinging desperately to their marriage. As tensions boil over, Susan’s wealthy, elite family turns against Michael, accusing him of extortion and branding him a gold-digging parasite. Driven out of his home with nothing but a bruised face and a broken heart, Michael files for a high-profile divorce, determined to reclaim his freedom and dignity regardless of the cost. Desperate to avoid a ruinous public scandal and keep the man she truly loves, Susan unleashes her top corporate lawyer, Margaret, to squeeze Michael into submission. Yet financial threats, legal traps, and sensual seductions only strengthen Michael's resolve. Amidst escalating courtroom maneuvering, corporate pressure, and shocking secret maternity tests to prove a baby swap, the emotional rift spreads to the children—exposing Leo’s cold, spoiled ambition and little Maya’s heartbreaking loyalty. Filled with explosive confrontation, high-stakes deception, and unexpected twists at every turn, plunges into the dark underbelly of corporate privilege and marital betrayal. How far will a woman go to protect her empire's reputation, and how much can a man sacrifice to untangle himself from a web of deceit.
