I Found a Nine-Tailed Fox on a Junk Planet

In Year 372 of the Star Calendar, amid the smoke of the Zerg invasion, Lin Zhao, the youngest son of Federal Marshal Lin Jingyuan and General Shen Yan, is born. Three months later, however, he is abducted by imperial spies and made a victim of experiments on psychic power. After twelve years in captivity, he awakens a rare nine-tailed fox spirit form ahead of time. Having escaped hell, Lin Zhao is left with a broken body and a will to survive that has dwindled to almost nothing. All he wants is to find some quiet, deserted corner and wait for his life to end. Then, at sixteen, he unexpectedly saves Lu Chengyu, the Federation’s youngest general, on a garbage planet. Lu Chengyu is a student personally promoted by Lin Zhao’s fathers. In Lin Zhao’s amber eyes, so much like his mentor’s, Lu Chengyu recognizes the child who has been missing for fourteen years. As the Federation’s light shines on Lin Zhao once more, and Lu Chengyu’s warmth and resolve break into his frozen world, will the boy who only wanted to lie flat until the end find the desire to live again? And what kind of vortex of fate will the shadow of the Empire’s experiments, the family’s debt and protection, and his steadily deteriorating health sweep them into?
