The Monsters Awaken

[Complete] After monsters return, fear grips cities across the world, and bizarre creatures long thought extinct begin appearing everywhere. Lou Yan is handsome and forceful, and countless people go crazy for him, falling at his feet. After awakening a decent ability, he follows the strongest person in the world, Fu Xuezhou, hailed as humanity’s savior. Everyone believes Fu Xuezhou will lead them to put an end to the monsters’ return. But after Fu Xuezhou ascends the throne, he destroys the world and shatters everyone’s hopes. Lou Yan is reborn amid despair and hatred. * Only after being reborn does Lou Yan learn that Fu Xuezhou has already destroyed this world three times, and started over three times. Every time, Fu Xuezhou makes it from beginning to end, only to gleefully destroy everyone’s trust in him at the last moment. To him, this place is one enormous amusement park. On the very night the monsters return, Lou Yan immediately fuses with a terrifying monster, becoming something neither human nor ghost. His black eyes turn red. With poison in his gaze and a smile on his face, Lou Yan stands before Fu Xuezhou, his resolve harder than ever. Don’t you like watching people despair? Then let me give you a taste of it too :) 1.

Weibo: @Jinjiang Wang Sanshan Coming soon: “Everyone Keeps Stopping Me from Seizing Power” After the death of business tycoon Shang Junluo, he transmigrates to ancient times and becomes a pitiful child in the middle of being kidnapped and sold. The child’s true identity is the sole heir to the Duke of Anguo’s estate. After losing him, the family adopted an heir. Before long, the Duke’s family will find the original child, but he is of mediocre talent. The adopted heir secretly bullies him until he dies of depression, leaving the Duke and his wife deeply disappointed. Shang Junluo sneers. Before the Duke’s family can find him, he runs away and arranges for a passing official and his wife to adopt him. What you can’t have is what you cherish most. As long as their true son remains lost, the Duke and his wife will only miss him more and find fault with their adopted heir at every turn. Shang Junluo conceals all his scheming beneath an elegant, serene, and dispassionate exterior. In the end, he rises step by step through the imperial examinations, placing first on the official list. On the day the new top scholar parades through the streets, the Duchess, haggard from longing for her son, gazes at the young man, as graceful as a jade tree and as ethereal as an immortal. She suddenly rises in shock, tears spilling from her eyes. * Everyone who meets Shang Junluo is dazzled by him. They say, “One glimpse of Shang Junluo can set all of Luoyang abuzz.” The word “perfect” seems the only way to describe him. But the all-powerful regent disagrees. From the moment he first sees Shang Junluo, he knows they are alike: both are ruthless and enamored of power. Like detests like. He alone should be willing to stop at nothing for power. Any more of them, and the court will descend into chaos. The regent idly turns the ring on his finger and orders coolly, “Get rid of him.” Theme: Like a phoenix reborn, rising from the flames.
