Dragon Shadow Across the Nine Heavens

In a star-faring age ruled by dragons, Long Ying is the Dragon Emperor’s ninth prince and the empire’s deepest secret. Born with extraordinary gifts, he carries the power of an ancient Shadow Dragon in his blood, unaware that he is also the ultimate vessel for the “AI God” project: a perfect creation combining biological genes with super-technology.
