The Black Star Monarch

Li Jun was cast out of his family after his father's death. Bullied by his cousins and robbed by his uncle, his upbringing was less than pleasant. Despite that, Li Jun tried his best to live a quiet life; he kept to himself and worked hard to earn a living. However, fate dealt a cruel blow when a vicious attack left him unable to work again. Li Jun fell into despair. It was only through the selfless sacrifice of his devoted mother that a glimmer of redemption emerged as she sold off her final sliver of wealth to afford him a chance at a better life. Just when all seemed lost, a mysterious silver ring, seemingly tossed from the hands of celestials, descended from the heavens. Upon receiving the celestial gift, Li Jun's life took a surprising turn. As the layers of deceit peeled away, Li Jun found himself thrust into a web of lies that began to unravel before him. Compelled to untangle the enigmatic circumstances surrounding his father's demise and the orchestrated misfortunes that befell him, Li Jun strode on through the world of cultivation as the heavens trembled at his feet. He had seen a whisper of despair and vowed to never glance upon it again. ______________________________ Hello Author here. :) I just wanted to let you all know that I have a discord server and if you would like to join the community and discuss topics regarding this novel or other novels in general feel free to join.

You look ridiculous.

The air grew cold, and many of the thousands of martial artists slowed down as they tried to resist the cold. The more prepared ones wrapped themselves up in extra sets of clothes and whatever fabric they had at their disposal. 

Mountains usually became colder the higher you climbed but this was different. It wasn't the kind of chill that stung your skin and made you shiver. The blistering cold on this mountain cut deep, freezing your joints and muscles, making it harder to continue your ascent. 

Hundreds of people had already quit; the cold was simply too much for them to bear. Li Jun, however, climbed effortlessly. His soul flame radiated through his body and stopped the unnatural chill from penetrating. The soul flame was cold in its own right, but he had gotten used to it.

Shen Yun on the other hand looked like a beast made out of fabric. She had wrapped enough clothes around her body that she resembled a mountain herself. Only her eyes and legs peeked out.
