Synopsis:

500 years after the Spiritual Awakening, Martial Souls have become the foundation for all warriors, allowing them to communicate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Every individual has only one Martial Soul, determining their potential in cultivation.

Yet, Yang Xie, an ordinary youth, defies the heavens—awakening the god-level talent of Shadow Lord!

While others struggle with a single Martial Soul, Yang Xie commands a shadow army that grows stronger alongside him:
☯ 1,000 Shadow Warriors...
☯ 10,000 Martial Masters...
☯ 100 million Martial Emperors...!!!

"Training? Who needs it when my shadow soldiers are constantly growing stronger?"

[God-Level Shadow Talents]

⚔ Devouring Shadow: Absorb the enemy’s shadow to gain their talent and energy!
⚔ Fusion Shadow: Merge thousands of shadow soldiers into one ultimate being—I am infinite!
⚔ Shadow Endowment: Bestow the devoured talents upon other creatures, creating an army of monsters!

With this heaven-defying ability, Yang Xie sweeps across the world, his shadow army crushing even SSS-level geniuses as if they were mere ants. But his ambition does not stop there—

His goal is the boundless sea of stars!

When ancient beasts attempt to invade Blue Star—he destroys their entire nest!
When the Demons, Bone Tribe, and Yaksha Clan conspire against humanity—his shadow army consumes them all for power!
One-on-one? Yang Xie is a fair man... but he simply has too many soldiers!

Who would have thought that this unstoppable Shadow Lord, standing at the peak of power, would eat soft rice, relying on a rich and beautiful school goddess to fund his cultivation?

Despicable? No.
Yang Xie just believes in making smart choices.

[Cultivation Realms]

☯ Mortal Realms: Warrior → Martial Master → Martial General → Martial King → Martial Emperor → Martial God
☯ Transcendent Realms: Nirvana → Creation → Nirvana → Return to Truth → Transformation → Immortality → Feathered Immortal

From the mortal world to the heavens, the Shadow Sovereign rises!
This is the era of Yang Xie, the Lord of Shadows!

Shadow Lord's Forbidden Love

"Weiwei, you're here! It's so easy to find you."

Yang Xie was deep in thought when a voice suddenly interrupted him. He turned around to see a man with a sharp face and monkey-like features, holding Yun Wei's hand.

"Weiwei, why don't you understand my feelings? The moment I saw you, I fell in love. Why are you rejecting me?" The man gazed at Yun Wei with an expression of affection, posing in what he thought was a charming way, although his slightly balding head made him seem rather comical.

"Love at first sight?" Yang Xie raised an eyebrow as he looked at the man, then shifted his gaze to Yun Wei. She was indeed beautiful, but this man?

It was the kind of situation where you could say "Beauty and the Beast."

Yang Xie didn't speak, but he respected that everyone had their own preferences.

Yun Wei withdrew her hand from the man and said, her voice polite but distant, "Mr. Xu Qiang, I'm just an ordinary woman. I'm not worthy of your love."

"Worthy? Of course, you are!" Xu Qiang grinned, his eyes shining with obsession. "Even if you're not a warrior, your beauty has completely captivated me."

"Mr. Xu Qiang, you have so many girlfriends. You don't need me," Yun Wei replied with a helpless sigh.

"My love is selfless," Xu Qiang insisted, though a slight awkwardness appeared in his expression. "I love all my girlfriends the same way."

Yun Wei's patience seemed to wear thin. She said, a little colder, "Mr. Xu Qiang, please, there are 13 other women. I truly don't deserve your affection."

Yang Xie was speechless. How could one person manage so many relationships? This guy must be something else.

The entire situation felt more like a bad joke. Xu Qiang's obsession was only making things more ridiculous.

"Mr. Xu Qiang, please," Yun Wei's voice took on a sharper tone. "I have guests to attend to. Please leave."

Xu Qiang hesitated, his grin fading slightly, but he still didn't want to leave.

Yang Xie watched with disbelief. He was stunned by how absurd the situation had become.

"I don't understand," Yang Xie muttered under his breath, eyes wide. "This guy has 13 girlfriends?"

Even Nangong Ya, who had been silently observing, couldn't hold back her disgust.

"Scumbag," she muttered, shaking her head.

Xu Qiang stood his ground, still looking at Yun Wei as if she were the only woman in the world. "Yun Wei, you've misunderstood me. I care about you, I really do. My older brother is at the peak of the martial arts realm. He's someone who could protect you."

Yun Wei tried to remain calm. "Mr. Xu Qiang, I'm really not interested."

"And my older brother is an E-level talent. Soon, he'll be a martial arts master! You're making a huge mistake rejecting me," the man added, his voice filled with impatience and pride.

Yang Xie frowned, sensing the awkwardness in the air. It was clear this man had no sense of personal boundaries.

Yun Wei, now growing more uncomfortable with the situation, sighed deeply and said, "Please, Mr. Xu Qiang, I've already told you. I don't feel the same. Kindly leave."
