    Summary

    Jiang Cheng was named for a river, but even rivers can be defiled.

    He is the heir of Yunmeng Jiang, born to water. Jiang Cheng knows rot when it lives inside his own bones. He is everything a hero must not be: bitter, wrathful, ugly with wanting.

    His hands are bloodied, his voice is too sharp, his body is not his, not really, not after it was made into something else. He is seen as a villain, seen to hate the pariah boy who took everything.

    He does hate him. That is the tragedy.

    But what haunts him more is the story itself: the pages that know his name only as a foil, a cruelty, a cautionary tale.

     

    (In his beginning is his end.)

    Summary

    He doesn’t wake up in fire this time. No sword through the chest, no blood on Zidian, no smoke in his lungs.
    He wakes to the bell tolling and time laughing.

    This time, he’s fourteen.

    He’s tried being kind. Tried being ruthless. Lived fifty-five lives and died in all of them.
    Sometimes he saved the world. Sometimes he helped end it.

    This time, he’s trying something different.

    This time, Jiang Cheng wants to break the curse. He wants his husband back—the man who once held him like a prayer unsaid too many times.

    There’s just one problem: Wen Ruohan doesn’t remember him.

    Lan Xichen wants to marry him.
    Lan Wangji is staring like he’s the moon.
    Wei Wuxian is proposing.

    And Jiang Cheng? Jiang Cheng just wants a nap. And maybe to kiss his stupid, beautiful warlord husband one more time.

    But fine. If the heavens want a mess, they’ll get one.

    This time, he’ll be happy. This time, he’ll win.

    And if the world tries to stop him again?

    Let it try.

    Jiang Cheng has always been hardest to kill when he has something left to lose.

    Summary

    Jiang Wanyin dreams of war.

    He dreams of Lotus Pier burning, of his people slaughtered, of his mother’s body lying cold and his father’s last, blood-choked breath. He dreams of a sect in ruin, of betrayal, of standing on the precipice of destruction and failing to stop it.

    And then he wakes up.

    A child again, with hands too small, a voice too raw, and a history that hasn't happened yet.

    To the world, Jiang Cheng is a young sect heir blessed (or cursed) with prophetic visions. To himself, he is a survivor reliving a nightmare.

    He has no grand plan. No burning desire to fix the world. He is not a hero.

    All he wants is for his people to live.

    And if, in the process, he accidentally makes himself the most sought-after bachelor in the cultivation world?

    Well. That’s just another problem to survive.

    Summary

    Their quarters were divided only by a thin veil of silk, a mockery of privacy. From his bed, Nie Mingjue can see two figures locked in a rhythm that was less about intimacy than control.

    – in which Jiang Cheng is reduced to Wen Ruohan’s war prize, and Nie Mingjue is held captive
