Millions of earthlings reincarnated into a magical world to save it from its prophesied doom. However, one reincarnation failed—an anomaly born in error or by design. Thrust into a rotting house in a ghostly body, Adam found himself bound to a wailing baby: the body he should have reincarnated into. Two cruel choices were given to him: suffer as a ghost while searching for an impossible alternative, or murder the boy he would raise to claim the life that was promised. Guided only by a snarky system that warns of his damaged soul, he began his years-long quest to recover his body. But solitude tightens around his heart, and madness slithers at the edges of his mind, ready to engulf him whole. He was far from imagining how dangerous this world full of possibilities could be. Soon, he would question everything he knew—including his own sanity, his memories, and the very hands that blurred this world's history. And if someone was behind it all… was the prophecy itself a lie? This world... So there are others, where Qi rules instead of mana and forgotten legacies of cultivators lie for those who have the skills to grab them. ********************************************** Discord server: https://discord.gg/ubzzKM5wfp Note: The MC is not a supporting character or hidden master.

As a top manager, everyone constantly tries to curry favor with Li Xiwu. And due to her identity as Mrs. Pei, the rich and the powerful would always greet her politely. A celebrity instructor, and the wife of a man from a rich family... Is there anyone who would not envy her? However, only Li Xiwu knows that she is a substitute for Mr. Pei's unrequited love, and none of her titles or privileges have anything to do with her.***Losing yourself after being someone else's substitute is a tedious thing. Having gained that epiphany, Li Xiwu began to ponder how she should claim alimony of astronomical proportions from Mr. Pei. However, while she was obsessing over how to get rich from the divorce, her mother-in-law, who had always disliked her, invited her to take part in a variety show, while promising to make her rich. Li Xiwu's lips curled into a grin. "Fortune favors the brave!”At first, her mother-in-law constantly attempted to embarrass her, and netizens were all moaning about how she was the most pitiful rich daughter-in-law!

Li Xiwu did not expect herself to shoot to fame in the variety show either. However, while she was convinced that she could get a smooth divorce afterward, her mother-in-law called her son immediately as soon as the variety show ended.“Divorce my baby, and I will disown you!”Mr. Pei: ???

There was nothing left to lose in his life. He had lived as a hero. He had started at the bottom and worked his way up to the top, at the end he become the best, yet he had always been betrayed by those he had tried to protect. Humanity did not deserve his protection. When everything went out and he could no longer even hope to beg for his life, he could do nothing but look up at the blood-red sky among the corpses of demons and angels. He wished for one more chance, just one more chance. And when that chance was given to him, he swore that he would change everything. He would no longer be a hero to save people, but an anti-hero to save the world. Sacrificing hundreds of people to save an elf, poisoning hundreds of people to save a group of half-demons. He didn't care about any of that anymore; he would protect those he cared about and send everything else to hell. Not even the gods or goddesses could stop him. ------ If you want to chat with me about the questions you might have, please join the Discord from this link: https://discord.gg/R7rrvj9zME
