Chapter 1The XiaoAiSect World

Welcome to my world, although through these books you'll only get to experience a fraction of it. I, myself, have yet to expand on it so it begins only in China. The world I have created is very cultivation heavy as it is the main theme of my books yet, an insignificant spoiler, two out four books won't end in the continuing practice of cultivation.

There isn't a specific time era for my world as I didn't want to restrict my writing because of history, this is fantasy after all. But to add context, if it wasn't obvious in my writing, it's based in ancient China.

And not everyone is cultivators, many of my fondest characters are of different nature and still have importance within the plot. So below I will list the type of jobs and appearances of these workers as I know not everything I write falls into the category of ancient China.

My types of characters can be mainly defined by their hair length. This however is based on the hair length of men as (the majority of) women naturally keep their hair long no matter their role in life.

Cultivators, the royal and the wealthy - like to keep their hair long as long hair is heavy and can get in the way if you need to move a lot. Being able to maintain it shows wealth and strength. Some sects will cut the hair of a cultivator when exiling them from the sect or some cultivators who wish to leave the life of cultivation, cut their hair to separate themselves from their past sect.

Farmers, merchants, servants and other low class workers - prefer to keep their hair short from the typical male cut length to about shoulder length. This is easier to work with as in hot days they will sweat less and there is no requirement to keep the hair appealing in appearance.

Monks - are known to keep their heads shaved and so it will remain the same in this world. Although there aren't any female monasteries in this world (currently), if there was they would have shaved heads as well.

————————————————————

The next chapters following this one will dive more into this world and dissect the cultivation used in these novels. I have yet to come up with a name for this world of mine so I think I'll just keep it as the XiaoAiSect world for now. The name 'XiaoAiSect' came from the realisation that a lot of my sects don't focus on love, it is the characters that make the novel a loving one. So the little love that the sects give are the building block for the adventure of love that my characters will get to experience. And hopefully you too.

Some of you may be curious about me as the author, however, I wish for you to respect my wishes to keep private about my personal information. If somehow these books do well, I'll consider answering some of your future questions but the future is unknown and the present is just making itself known.

Empire Ascension: The Rise of the Fated One

This is the story of a modern man who transmigrates to 16th-century India in a parallel world after dying to save his first crush on a date. He regresses as a lowly-ranked soldier in the camp of Hemu, the last northern Hindu king, who is fated to lose and die at the hands of the Mughals. With his modern knowledge and past experiences, the protagonist alters the course of history, forcing the Mughals to surrender and retreat beyond the Ravi River, which is in modern-day Pakistan. As a reward, he is granted trading rights and becomes the emperor’s personal attendant. Using this opportunity, he sets out to reshape the empire. By promoting private enterprise, establishing trading company, and creating opportunities for the lower communities, he begins to shift India’s economy away from the feudal system toward modern capitalism. And all this began with the advent of his mercenary army, which excelled in firearms far ahead of its time. His journey is filled with trials, including internal turmoil, political strife, and the looming threat of invasion from the Mughals in the west, Tibet from the north and the Dutch and Portuguese in the south. As the emperor’s trusted aide, the protagonist not only rescues the crumbling empire but also forges his own path, eventually claiming the title of emperor himself. Join him on this incredible journey of empire's ascension, as he explores how India could have been in the 16th century if history had taken a different course. With just one battle's result, the fate of the entire world is transformed.

The return of the fallen king

In a usurped kingdom , amid a war-torn and blood-soaked Italy, Conradin's battleground is set. To reclaim his birthright the crown of Sicily, he must tread a path paved with blood, learning that he must do whatever it takes to ascend the throne. --------------- In the year 1266, the tale of Conradin, the last scion of an ancient imperial dynasty, unfolds. His once-great kingdom, Sicily, has been ruthlessly usurped first by his own uncle and now rests in the hands of the cunning French Count Charles. Through a treacherous plot involving the Pope, Charles managed to oust the Hohenstaufen from the Kingdom of Sicily and crowned himself as its king. In the East, powers such as the Despotate of Epirus are keenly observing the instability in Sicily, poised to seize any advantage that may arise from the chaos. Meanwhile, the small Italian communes are caught in the political crossfire, aligning themselves with one side of the conflict or the other based on the prevailing political party in power and their vested interests. These shifting allegiances turn the Italian peninsula into a powder keg, where all-out war seems inevitable. As the shadows of history close in around Conradin, the world watches with bated breath. Will he emerge triumphant, his name forever etched in the annals of Sicilian glory as the rightful king who defied insurmountable odds, toppling both the Pope and the usurper? Or will he, in his valiant struggle, become a tragic figure, a symbol of lost opportunities and shattered dreams? The future of Sicily hangs in the balance, and Conradin's destiny remains uncertain, poised on the precipice of history.
