1Sword2Peaks

Ren Lei is the fourth son of a minor noble family and the son of a concubine to boot. Being born a cripple, the only thing he has is beauty; beauty that caused him much suffering growing up in a house where no-one loved him.

As if that wasn't enough, he was about to be sold off in a political marriage to a woman who had everything he didn't, the Princess of the Ether Cloud City, full of not only beauty but with immense talent in profound cultivation. 

Refusing to submit to his fate, as a final act of rebellion, in a desperate bit to retake what little control he had over his own life, he chooses to consume poison and commit suicide.

However, the fates are not so kind to those that would try to change it. He survives but suffers from a strange condition that causes his soul to separate from his body. As he slowly loses the constrains of a physical body, he is forced to look at himself more closely and recognise who he truly is. Not only must he struggle against the destiny devised for him but also his true nature: a calamity whose howl will wipe the slate of an era clean, ushering in a new dark age.

The Wolf of a Dark Age

<p>Noticing the emotional fluctuations Yun Lei was experiencing, Hunlang Zhenzhen couldn't help but be a little worried. For as long as she had known him, he was a very calm and collected person; unnaturally so. He had a tendency of cursing out a lot but that was merely a personality quirk; on the inside, his mentality would be far from shaken. Thus, she knew that not a lot of things could make him lose his composure like this.  </p>

<p>Free will was something all sentient beings held sacred. Many would argue that there was no feeling more unpleasant than your free will being stolen away from you and for Yun Lei, as far back as he could retain memories of, he had been nothing but a puppet in the hands of others. He never had the power or the will to change his own fate and hell, he hadn't even been able to take his life in his own terms like he wanted to.  </p>
