Battle Through the Heavens: Silent Nights, Becoming an Emperor Behind the Scenes

Shen Ye knows nothing about the original story. All he has is a piece of black jade that can simulate danger. He never shows off in public, traveling the continent under a false identity. He never fights powerful enemies on equal terms, only making his move once his simulations reveal a chance to win. While Xiao Yan follows his destined path in search of the Heavenly Flames, Shen Ye uses one major event from the original story after another to forge a different path to becoming an Emperor.
