Return of the Divine Emperor

A golden river of light descends from the heavens, and destiny takes form as Jun Chen, the Crown Prince of Great Jin, is born into the world. But this coveted heavenly mandate is not a blessing—it is a cage that binds him. His biological father, the emperor, feigns kindness while treating him as a commodity of fortune to be sold; the immortal sects watch with greedy eyes, seeking to seize his origin and refine it; the warmth around him is but bait, and the companionship is mere surveillance. From a young age, he conceals his sharpness, learning the arts of power in the deep palace, shedding blood on the northern frontier, secretly weaving a web of intelligence, and coldly maneuvering against all hunters. The world only knows to plunder this chaotic destiny, unaware that within this coveted vessel sleeps the supreme divine emperor, sealed by reincarnation. When the shackles melt away and memories return—the divine emperor ascends, and with a single thought, all schemes and cages turn to dust. — Description from novelcodex.org
