Name: Supreme Pardon
Author: Stop the Fall

Synopsis

[A Note Before Reading:] The story was revised in several places after it was completed to fix bugs, so the official edition differs from pirated copies in many details and plot points. Please support the author by reading the legitimate edition on Jinjiang.

Blurb:

After the “Starfall” incident, half of humanity migrated to other star systems, while the other half was abandoned to struggle for survival amid the chaos.

A thousand years later, beneath the deep ocean of Earth, now a planet of exile isolated by interstellar humanity because of mutagenic radiation, a disfigured young man looked on with amusement and murmured darkly, “A lost nonhuman civilization, is it?”

At the heart of a distant star region, interstellar humanity flourished in an age of prosperity. No one could foresee the tremendous upheaval about to sweep across the entire human world, beginning in an insignificant place.

Reading Guide:

1. Protagonist on top → conquest and unification → satisfying power fantasy

2. This story features many competing factions and extensive political maneuvering. Because of the characters’ personalities, the romance develops relatively late. The love interest is Bai Tan. (A calculating, ambitious top versus a love interest with a completely different vibe.)

3. The protagonist is extremely cold and detached, with some personality flaws. Due to the background and character setup, some scenes are rather dark, so please consider your comfort level before reading. (But trust me, as the title suggests, everything will ultimately move toward redemption.)

4. Readers who are extremely possessive of either the top or the love interest, please do not read. The author serves only the plot and characterization and does not take any character’s side. You can’t please everyone with one book. If you feel uncomfortable while reading, please leave using the top-right corner. Respect goes both ways. Perhaps we’ll meet again among the books. Keep your spirits up, and please refrain from stirring up trouble or personal attacks.

5. Some readers in the comments may disagree and argue. If that bothers you, please don’t read the comments.

P.S. This story was written in 2017 and was the author’s first serialized novel, so it may have many flaws. Some plot points were revised after completion. Thank you all for being understanding. And if you enjoy “Absolution,” please don’t recommend it everywhere. Let it exist quietly. Thank you again!

Theme: Born into chaos, yet still yearning for the light.

Top-Centric, Top Worship, Top Protagonists

Top-focused stories for fans who love the top, but I'm not too intense about it. The couples are endgame. The top isn't excessively self-sacrificing, the bottom doesn't betray him, the top gets plenty of standout moments and takes the lead, and the bottom is loyal and devoted.

Personal Log of Mutual Pampering, Top-Leaning

My tastes are pretty broad. I like cute, beautiful, handsome, and charming male leads. Mutual affection is the baseline, and I mostly prefer stories told from the pursuer's perspective.

Feudal-Era CPJ Reads, Mostly Gentle and Reserved

I'm good with either the gong or the shou as the lead. Most pairings are mutually devoted and each other's first and only. I only read about couples falling in love. Dealbreakers: harem protagonists, side characters getting too much spotlight, and secondary couples.

Pursuing Protagonists Who Pamper Their Partners, or Mutual Pampering

I’m here for the top, not a top stan! Top stans, stay away! I like tops doting on bottoms or mutual pampering. I can’t stand bottoms who turn tops into mud, weak tops, or tops who are huge like bottoms; nor bottoms doting on tops, yandere bottoms, or dark, possessive bottoms. Character dynamics > writing > everything else.

I favor the gong. Mostly stories with a powerful, charismatic gong, though there are a few with a weaker gong too. I like plot-driven stories. I'll keep updating.

Good News for Fans of Feel-Good Power Trips

This is exactly the kind of pretentious, satisfying read I love. Gems I’ve dug up over years on Zongheng and Jinjiang, including comedic stories, mistaken-identity stories where everyone overestimates the protagonist, world-building stories, top-protagonist stories, ensemble casts, and books that are still a blast on the umpteenth reread.

Only High-Rated Long Danmei Novels for Me

I like longer books with strong storytelling. The top and bottom are usually a powerful team. Since I can't give five stars, three stars means pretty good, and four means an explosive recommendation.
