Xuanhuan: I Cultivate Longevity Through Peace

[Fantasy + Immortality + Female Lead + Long, Slow-Burn Story + Alternate World + Mastermind Boss + Nearly Invincible]

My name is Shen Tongzhen, a young man from Zhenjiang City.

I once ruled the pleasure houses, a dashing king, and penned verses of exquisite beauty.

Power and desire made a nest of demons; who knew everything would turn absurd?

They say the road is paved with blood beneath the setting sun, yet all are simply fighting to be king.

I lament the rise and fall of all life, yet laugh at greed, anger, delusion, and folly.

The living see life; the dead, too, are beyond measure.

I reach the Heavenly Dao, pursue immortality, and forge mystic arts until my bones exude fragrance.

How laughable: the bonds of the mortal world are faint, and in a single stormy day, all is lost.

Across three lives and five incarnations, heroes lie buried; through ages of carefree days, only I remain, ageless beneath the heavens.
