“You said you would always treasure me.” The Grandmaster choked on blood, his body trembling beneath Chi Chengxin’s blade. “Is this how you love, Chi Cheng…? Destroying that which you love?” Chi Cheng leaned in close, his voice soft, almost tender, but there was also something dark. “No.” Then colder than winter steel, he answered again, “In all your perfections, dear Grandmaster, loving me was your greatest flaw. This is how I end things I should’ve never started.” ******* He was once Jing Ling, a celestial beast revered for his beauty and power. But punishment for his crimes in the heavenly courts left him banished, hunted, and broken. Stripped of his divinity, he escaped to the mortal realm, crawling into the cold body of a dead child from the Chi Clan. Now reborn as Chi Cheng, he is not free. His meridians are sealed, his power coiled like a beast in chains, and his name is a stain on his clan. Even in this second life, he suffers—mocked, unwanted, forgotten. All he wants is quiet. Peace. Maybe even the love of Han Yijun, the senior disciple of the Ice Sect he once adored as his lover. But on the day he arrives at the Northern Ice Sect, Han Yijun betrays him with another—and the fragile hope in Chi Cheng’s chest shatters like ice underfoot. Then comes the Grandmaster. A man who is feared by mortals and dangerous to the immortals. He’s meant to become a Celestial Hunter—trained to kill the very being Chi Cheng used to be. He doesn’t know who Chi really is. And yet… he can’t stop wanting him. Affection becomes obsession. Pain blurs with pleasure. Chi Cheng becomes an addiction the Grandmaster can't stop chasing, a dream he's wanted for years. And as demons rise, slaughtering sects in the shadows, an old lover from Jing Ling’s past returns—with one goal: to control him again and use him to bring darkness to the world again. Now Chi Cheng walks a knife’s edge. The love he sought is not easy. Nothing comes without blood. ****** He was reborn with sealed power, a shattered heart, and a bounty on his soul. But the one man meant to kill him… is the one he’s making fall in love. ********* Note: The story doesn't follow an omegaverse trope but there is a factor of mpreg much later in the story. join my discord server to chat with me: find link under my profile cover picture is ai made by me

On the night of a lunar eclipse, Xie Wan was marked as the ill-fated lone star. Growing up in a Taoist temple, Xie Wan returned home to find herself without her parents. She faced external threats from vicious wolves while dealing with younger brothers crying for food. To make matters worse, her biased grandmother had her heart set on driving Xie Wan out of the residence. A certain man said, "Enough with the preambles, get to the point!" "Oh," Xie Wan smiled faintly, "the point is, I've taken a liking to someone. I'll plan step by step, enticing him, using his influence to establish my family's power, and employing his help to uncover the truth." The man wasn't pleased, "Aren't you supposed to seize the opportunity and take me down?" Xie Wan replied calmly, "No hurry, no hurry. What's in the bowl won't go cold, even if we wait to eat it later." The man retorted, "I feel pretty urgent though." Xie Wan: ...

"Please, let him go!" Looking at Christopher, who was covered in blood, I knelt on the ground and begged the man in front of me. "Fine. Promise me three things and I'll let him go!" Vincent's cold expression made me shudder. "First, You'll never see him again.", "Second, be my girl, and only be mine!" "Third..." Vincent slowly lowered his head and laughed evilly in my ear. "Now, please me until I'm satisfied..."

In a universe where the laws of science teeter on the edge of fantasy, a young genius named Su Xun stumbles upon the impossible — a rift to a parallel Earth, one plagued by chaos, monsters, and apocalyptic anomalies. But this isn’t just any parallel world; it’s a battlefield where forgotten myths clash with alien intellect, and ancient terrors tear through dimensions with no warning. And Su Xun… might be humanity’s last hope. A brilliant inventor with a quiet mind and a haunted past, Su Xun never sought power. But when a fragment of alien tech crash-lands in the outskirts of modern-day Beijing, everything changes. The device — a crystalline core humming with multiversal energy — grants him access to schematics and concepts that should only exist in movies and fiction. From Iron Man’s suit to the portal tech of Stargate, from the neural interfaces of Ghost in the Shell to the biomechanical brilliance of Pacific Rim, Su Xun begins a secretive, relentless campaign to bring cinematic black technology to life. He doesn't just build. He revolutionizes. The first threat arrives in the form of The Shattered Sky, a rift that vomits out gargantuan beasts with reflective scales and thoughts like weapons. Cities fall in hours. Militaries are shredded. The UN declares global emergency protocols, but against creatures that regenerate faster than bullets can wound, humanity’s doom feels inevitable. But then… Su Xun appears. Wearing a sleek battlesuit pulsing with energy drawn from dark matter, wielding drones smarter than most supercomputers, and assisted by an AI with the sarcasm of Tony Stark and the strategic mind of Ender Wiggin, he leads a rogue initiative called Project Echo Forge. With each chapter, Su Xun engineers new marvels: In Chapter 4: Singularity in Shanghai, he deploys a cloaking field based on Predator tech to infiltrate a creature’s hive and detonate an anti-gravity nuke built from nanoscopic lattice fields. In Chapter 7: The Leviathan Protocol, he reverse-engineers alien sonar to track a sea monster the size of a mountain, using a biomech jet borrowed from Evangelion-style mecha blueprints. In Chapter 10: The Language of God, he deciphers a frequency that allows temporary control over dimension-shifting beasts — but using it requires a cost no human has ever dared pay. Su Xun’s rise becomes legend. Nations call him “The Techno-Sovereign.” The aliens call him “The Rogue Equation.” And as more tears in the fabric of reality open — leading to nightmares from long-lost mythologies and cosmic entities whispering from beyond space — Su Xun races against time to forge weapons not just to protect Earth… but to reshape fate itself. Yet, beneath the innovation and chaos lies a chilling truth: not all the tech he’s bringing into reality is safe. Some of it was locked away in other universes for a reason. And the deeper he digs, the closer he gets to awakening an intelligence that predates every universe… a force that may have created the multiverse just to watch it burn. Prepare for a journey across realities, where science fiction becomes salvation — or annihilation. Su Xun is not just building machines. He’s rewriting the destiny of existence. And in his hands, black technology becomes divine.

'Run! It's a trap!' A sharp howl came from a few feet in front of me making my vision shifted dangerously and dive out of my hiding spot, shocking both of the men in front of me. I plunged the knife into the large man's shoulder, making sure to dig it as deep as I could so he would feel that pain. He released a loud roar in pain, throwing my hands away with a violent slap. I backed away, seeing wolves or people surrounding me while Ajax struggled underneath a man who held a little bit of authority. My senses came to life when I felt the presence that I was beginning to feel familiar with. "Nice to finally met the deadly Xenon. I am the Alpha of this pack and you will pay for what you have done here." Zavier told me in a cold voice as I turned towards him and smiled sadistically. "Lovely to meet you as well Alpha." 〰〰〰 This is the first book to the Power series. You can read the books in order if you wish however you do not need to.
