In the ancient empire of Zhaotian, where magic is bound by scrolls and sealed within bloodlines, the Imperial Magic School-Tianwu Academy-trains warriors not just for battle, but for loyalty to the Crown.

When Yue Lian, a gifted girl from a disgraced noble family, receives a mysterious royal invitation to enter Tianwu Academy, she sees a chance to restore her family's honor. But within the academy walls, nothing is as it seems. There are secret games of power, underground duels, and ancient forbidden arts being practiced under the surface.

Haunted by the betrayal that destroyed her clan, Yue Lian plays her role carefully-until she meets Ji Chen, a charming prince hidden behind a mask of arrogance. Their connection is undeniable, but his secrets run deeper than hers.

As Yue uncovers a deadly conspiracy within the academy-a traitor among the royals working with foreign rebels-she must decide: will she follow her heart, or her blade?

Because in the Game of Shadows, love is a weakness... and revenge is the only path to justice.

The Rending Fate. by mishy_y

In the glorious empire of Lianzhou, loyalty and bloodline are the sharpest weapons of all. Born with the spirit of fire and the heart of a warrior, Zhou Xi Wei, the prodigious Seven Arts General of Shenxi, once guarded the empire's borders with unmatched valor. But when peace returns, betrayal comes cloaked in golden robes. By the decree of Empress Lianxi, the Shenxi army is handed to the Crown Prince Ren Yue-a man who despises Xi Wei more than the enemy beyond the walls. Her title stripped, her freedom bound, and her fate sealed within the cold walls of the imperial palace, Zhou Xi Wei must now fight not with her sword-but with silence, patience, and wisdom. As whispers of deceit stir within the court and shadows bloom beneath lantern light, the once-free general stands at the crossroads of vengeance and destiny. Will she bow to the empire that broke her wings, or rise to rewrite its fate? ✨⚔️💕

Ashes Of Love, Flames Of Revenge by sutbee

For three years, Gu Lianhua, the hidden heiress of China's second-wealthiest family, devoted her life to a man she believed was her destiny. Stripping away her noble identity, she worked tirelessly in cafés and as a delivery girl, enduring scorn from her boyfriend Zhao Rui's family. By day, she scrubbed floors; by night, she hid her genius in programming and stock trading, amassing a secret fortune meant as a gift for their future together. But love betrayed her. Zhao Rui took a mistress-Shen Meilin, an illegitimate child of a distant branch who falsely claimed to be the Gu family's beloved granddaughter. When Rui and his family chose Meilin over Lianhua, discarding her with cruelty and humiliation, Lianhua's fragile devotion shattered. What Rui did not know was that he had scorned the true Gu heiress. Behind her quiet endurance stood three fiercely protective brothers and a secret engagement to the heir of China's wealthiest Lee family. Lee Jianyu, broad-shouldered and powerful, had never forgotten the petite girl who defended him when he was a mocked, overweight teenager. He had waited years for her return-and now, he would burn the world to protect her. From ashes of love, flames of revenge will rise. Rui, Meilin, and all who scorned her will regret their cruelty, as Lianhua ascends not only as the Gu heiress but as a queen of her own making. At her side will stand Jianyu-the man who saw her when she was invisible, and loved her when the world turned away. This is a tale of betrayal, hidden identity, vengeance, and love reborn.
