Delusions Turn to Ashes

Strong female lead, no CP, no romance plot. If that’s not your thing, steer clear ^⦁᎑-^ ੭ My name is Chi Wang. I am the shadow that was severed at the dawn of creation. A thousand years ago, I was sealed in a rift between realms. A thousand years later, I awoke in the corpse of a mortal and became “Lord Qinghuan,” as the Keepers of the Azure Sky called me. They thought I was their ally. In truth, I had come to close the net. Twelve Keepers, twelve pawns. I helped them fight evil spirits while drawing up their routes, leading them step by step into my game. When this game of chess is over, there is no after. I’m off. Don’t see me out. [A god as the protagonist / good at first, then evil / no redemption / tragic ending]
