She knew that she was only a supporting character in this novel world. The male lead only married her as a business relationship and, sooner or later, the female lead of the story would eventually show up.

If Chen Jinyao was indecisive about leaving, only heartbreak would follow.

Something pulled her thin white wrist, and next thing she knew, she was pushed down and pressed against a pillow. Yan Cheng’s peach blossom eyes bored into her in discontent as he declared, “Only in your dreams!”

After spending a colorful night, she was too tired to lift a finger.

When she fell asleep in Yan Cheng’s arms, she had a dream.

In her dream, she had turned 80 years old.

But can someone tell her why she still hadn’t left the marriage at that age?

Within the city of Four Nine, the most useless illegitimate child among the children of the noble families, Nie Zhenbang, finally succumbed to his worldly burdens and committed suicide. Yet, he was reborn to the moment before he found his father.

Will the tragedy repeat itself? Can the infamous trash transform into a household name in the city of Four Nine? After his family has lost its fortune, would Nie Zhenbang allow history to repeat itself in this life? Would the day an illegitimate child took over as the family head arrive?

He was once a name whispered in terror.A Demon King no army could challenge. No god could judge. No fate could bind.But he didn’t fall in battle.He walked away.Immortality became dull. Victory became predictable. The world stopped pushing back. And for someone who was born to conquer limits… boredom was the only true enemy left.So Anos chose death.Reborn as a human in a fragile, uncertain world, he expects weakness, struggle—maybe even humility.Instead, something else awakens.A system woven from hearts, fate, and supremacy.A power that doesn’t just measure strength… it measures influence, dominance, connection, desire.The universe is watching.And somewhere in the silence between worlds, a former god of destruction begins carving a new path—one not toward simple conquest… but toward something higher.Beyond heroes.Beyond destiny.Beyond the very laws that once defined him.This isn’t a story about redemption.It’s about evolution.From Demon King…To something the cosmos itself may not be ready for.
