The Scarlet Ghost King Tgcf

Wei Wuxian knows he's going to die soon, he knows his end all too well. Little does he know, he ends up a Ghost King, fulfilling a prophecy oracled by Mount Tonglu. 'Change through resentment, a beginning of a new era.'

'You are chosen to slay ancient power and bring forth advancement.' He's not going to do it. But fate had other plans. When Wen Qing's soul and the remaining innocent population of the Wens dissipate in the hands of the Crimson King and A-yuan is dragged and murdered by the Green Ghost King. Enraptured by his resentment and wrath, he takes an oath to annihilate the ancient powers and bring forth 'advancement.'

It is the 7th century: the rise of Islam, the Islamic conquests, and significant shifts in the Byzantine, Persian, and European worlds, including the end of the Sassanid dynasty in Persia and the First Fitna are the world's ruckus.

'Feelings can't be controlled. We can never choose when things, people...happen to us.' ----He Xuan.

'I can.' ----Hua Cheng.
