In a world forged by chi and immortal power, the first emperor, Ying Zheng, created the Ethereal Lock-a technique capable of erasing enemies from time or converting them into eternal power. Blindfolded to spare himself the suffering of others, he rules alone, believing a true king must never bend, never waver, and never rely on another.
Centuries later, the Vampire King Ahzrael rises from grief to challenge the gods and humanity itself. Against impossible odds, the third child of Ying Zheng, Zheng Xuan, must choose between power and love, tradition and freedom, rule and release. The fate of mortals, immortals, and the multiverse rests not in crowns, but in the courage to let go.
A mythic saga of kings, sacrifice, and the truth that a ruler is not born at the beginning-but revealed at the end.
