Second Life of the Silent Sovereign
Li Fan once ruled the cultivation world as an unmatched Sovereign. He was feared by sects and nations. But betrayal comes without warning. In a single night, his life, his power, and his legacy were destroyed.
Twenty years later, Li Fan wakes up as a sixteen-year-old youth. He still remembers everything from his past life. This time, he will not follow the paths of others. He will not bow to sect politics. He will not trust anyone blindly.
Using his knowledge and experience, Li Fan begins to build his own sect. He recruits talented disciples, secures forbidden techniques, and moves quietly to control the world. Every battle, every alliance, and every action is carefully planned.
At first, few notice his rise. Those who do underestimate him. By the time the world realizes Li Fan is not the boy they see, his sect is untouchable, his enemies are destroyed, and his revenge is complete.
In a world where power is temporary and betrayal is common, only those who are patient, smart, and ruthless survive.
