After My Coup Failed

On the Tianyu Continent, cultivators stand high above the world, while ordinary people are as lowly as ants and as insignificant as dust. A young man who has lost his memory after a terrible calamity wanders through the wilderness. Lowborn but dazzlingly beautiful, he attracts countless covetous eyes, lustful gazes, and schemes, and is dragged unwillingly into a treacherous struggle for power. Until one day, the mighty and supremely noble rulers of Tianyu, who stand high above the clouds, catch sight of his face. Nobleman A faints on the spot from fright. Nobleman B breaks out in a cold sweat, trembling uncontrollably as he drops to his knees and begs, “M-My lord, spare… spare my life…” Nobleman C puts on a brave face, but the hand gripping his sword trembles. “Traitor, how d-dare you!” … Only then does he learn that he is none other than the tyrant “Molian,” who, according to legend, seized the throne in a coup two hundred years ago, was cruel and bloodthirsty, had countless lives on his hands, and earned the wrath of heaven and the people before finally being driven from his throne. Back then, all these powerful nobles of Tianyu had been forced to kneel before him, weeping and swearing bloody oaths to serve him unto death for all eternity. Of course, times have changed. Now he is nothing but a defeated usurper, a stray dog who has lost his home. The current supreme ruler of Tianyu is Emperor Yuanji, who exterminated the six founders of the Demon Sect, united Tianyu, and established an unparalleled legacy. The emperor is a once-in-a-generation genius. He drove back the Demon Sect and saved the people, building an empire that would endure for millennia. The only stain on his life was having his only son seize his power and usurp his throne over two hundred years ago, reducing him to a prisoner. Known facts: Two hundred years ago, the emperor was usurped by his son. Two hundred years ago, he usurped the emperor. Therefore: He is… that unfilial son? The current supreme ruler of Tianyu is his own father? Well… that’s awkward. The story begins on April 3, 2022.

Please follow my upcoming work: After Going Undercover in the Demon Sect, I Became Its Leader The demonic sects run rampant, while the righteous path wanes. The Demon Lord Jiuyi reigns supreme, and all paths submit in fear. When Lu Changqing was born, the continent’s greatest seer foretold that he would be the Demon Lord’s lifelong nemesis, a beacon of righteousness who would one day overthrow the demonic path and restore the orthodox tradition. The Demon Lord issued a holy decree, mobilizing the entire demonic sect to hunt him down by every means possible. To protect his life, Lu Changqing’s senior sect members secretly hid him inside the Demon Sect, disguised as an ordinary disciple. The most dangerous place is the safest, after all. Lu Changqing followed his elders’ instructions and kept a low profile. When the Demon Sect’s leader died, its various factions fought endlessly over the position, tearing the sect apart with internal strife. Fed up, the Demon Lord Jiuyi casually pointed to a disciple and ordered him to take over as sect leader. Lu Changqing: “…” Lu Changqing, who had been keeping a low profile, was forced to become the new leader of the Demon Sect. Then he came face-to-face with the senior members of his own sect, who had come to attack it. They stared at one another, their expressions strange. One day, Demon Lord Gu Xuance of Jiuyi met an ordinary servant disciple by the edge of the Sacred Abyss Pool. From then on, he fell deeply in love. All the world’s myriad arts, the authority of the great path, and eternal life were worth less to him than a single glance from that person. Top-focused. The love interest is the Demon Lord. Theme: May peace reign for ten thousand generations
