Senior_White
He died and thought it would be the end. But when he opened his eyes again, Ren Zu found himself in a world where cultivators of the Profound Path divide the sky, the land, and even the stars. And the worst part? He was nobody important. Just a background character, the biological son of a prodigious cultivator who died before the story even began. The protagonist? The one who shines, wins everything, and is loved by all? He was adopted by Ren Zu’s original family. And Ren Zu was thrown into the protagonist’s family. Their roles were swapped. And as if that were not enough, the protagonist even stole his wife…. Spoiler: he will not accept this. If the world wants to erase him, then the world will burn with him. If fate gave him the role of a disposable supporting character… …then he will become the villain who defies even the heavens.

The Assassin’s Seven Principles of Manipulation

Zephyrion had spent the past seven years as an elite assassin for the Order. However, he had never expected that everything he had been led to believe was a lie. Fleeing the Order, he returns to his former life as the second son of one of the most powerful Houses in the Ferran Empire, only to find it divided among rival heirs, ambitious relatives, and powerful factions already maneuvering to seize control. But Zephyrion is no longer the same naive boy as in the past. His years of brutal training have forged him into an Ascendant who defies the very foundation of the world’s power—no longer bound to a single element. Armed with a calculating mind, lethal skill, and the principles his mother once taught him, he will manipulate, outmaneuver, and dismantle every force that stands before him. A/N:   This novel is action-packed and centered around manipulation, so expect intense battles, calculated moves, and ruthless decisions.   The MC is cold, lethal, and highly manipulative.  The first arc focuses on his return home and the establishment of stakes. After that, the pacing accelerates significantly as he grows stronger at a rapid pace.   The story follows the MC’s rise as he develops the Seven Principles of Manipulation, and each arc explores the core of a principle and how it is shaped.   An academy arc will appear later on, and it will be worth the wait.   This is a long-form story (1000+ chapters). It’s recommended to read through the free chapters before deciding whether to continue.   Cheers. … Discord: https://discord.gg/8JthpjYZez
