Synopsis

A man who faced lifelong rejection by the will of the world that he grew up in, and a genius with infinite potential who fell as a result of making a risky bet.

Under the machinations of the deceased Heavenly Emperor, Huang Xian, two unfortunate souls originating from entirely different worlds got saved and fused together into a new whole, adopting the identity of the latter–Theodore Winter, the heir to one of the Supreme Pillars of the Heavenly Court.

As an eon-spanning competition to decide the next generation of Heavenly Emperor and Heavenly Empress began, it brought with it a game of wits, power and plots that would shake the Heavenly Court to its core.

With a saint-like image and the heart of a devil, Theodore Winter entered the fray. Unbeknownst to all, besides returning triumphantly, he was entrusted with another task: To kill Huang Xian’s murderer–his wife, the Heavenly Empress!

Before posting here, I had already publicly released ~140 chapters. You can find them all for free on my Patreon.
And of course, you can read ahead a few more chapters beyond that point by supporting me on there (and paying for my meals).
In a while, exclusive chapters will also start to be released on there~

If you'd like to read more of my writing, I'm publishing a novel series on Amazon: Reincarnation Cycle's Unfortunate Bug.
You'll likely enjoy it a whole lot if this story and my writing style appeal to you.
