Legend of Icaros

Legend of Icaros

He was born from the void between stars - a being of immense power, forged from cosmic origins. For thousands of years, he walked among humanity, protecting them and keeping his true strength hidden. After losing the only family he had, grief led him to seek his own end... only to wake up in a world entirely unlike his own. Here, cultivation is the main path to power. Those who master spirit qi gain superhuman strength, speed, and abilities that place them far above ordinary people. Four great sects rule the land, competing for resources, secrets, and dominance over each other. Icaros joined the Li Sect, where he found companions he came to trust and care for: the capable and easygoing Li Han, the sharp and composed Su Yan, and the spirited Nelly. For a time, he felt he had found a place to belong, even as he kept his true nature hidden and wondered whether he could ever learn to cultivate like those around him. Everything changed when their voyage was suddenly attacked. A powerful figure floating in the sky cut their ship apart with sharp, devastating energy strikes, leaving only destruction in his wake. Believing his friends had been lost in the disaster, Icaros chose to stop holding back any longer. > "I am done hiding!" He unleashed his full power: golden light blazed from his eyes, he flew at incredible speed, and he broke through every barrier and enemy in his way. On the shores ahead, he tore through hordes of powerful jade monsters, destroying them completely before flying deep into the interior of the island. Meanwhile, survivors washed up scattered and alone. One young cultivator found himself on the shores of Jade Island - a place most cultivators avoid, as it holds no treasures or useful materials, only danger and endless deposits of ordinary jade. Yet despite the risks, ordinary people have built settlements here, finding safety from the conflicts and power struggles of the outside world. This island works by different rules. Spirit qi is scarce and unstable, making cultivation far less effective than elsewhere. Instead, the people here rely on advanced technology - weapons and explosives that can injure or even defeat those with great physical strength. Here, skill and preparation can be just as powerful as raw strength, and even the strongest cultivators must move with caution. Now, Icaros has vanished deep into the island. His companions are lost somewhere across this dangerous land. And the mysterious swordsman who destroyed their ship has already arrived here, searching for an ancient map said to lead to the legacy of a being from another world. Will they find each other again? And can anyone survive in a place where the usual rules of power no longer hold true? ✅ Chapters 1–19: FREE 🔒 Chapters 20 onwards: PAID (Continue the journey of power, friendship, and discovery!)

Chapter 15

Su Yan was now determined to finish this fight, no matter the cost. She raised her hands after pushing away the opponent with her attacks. Just as the opponent was preparing another attack move, one she thought would badly injure Su Yan. Su Yan's snow white petite hands landed on the floor. Her face was determined and ice cold. She shouted before releasing her spirit qi in torrents, which resulted in a massive circle of ice spreading from where she was. At a fast speed too, the ice domain interrupted the opponent's attack, as she lost her footing, which was crucial for the technique. Su Yan, seizing this opportunity, madly burned her spirit qi reserves before releasing a puff of snow petals. Huh! The female saw the beautiful snow petals. Just as she caught one of the beautiful petals on her hand, her battle instincts kicked in, and she hurriedly tried to toss it away, but not before it and the other petals that covered the space exploded in a blinding and dangerous radiance. Su Yan executed the final part of her plan, with her opponent in disarray and her armor torn. She controlled the ice in her surrounding, formed by her spirit qi, to form a giant splinter which impaled the opponent. The opponent's body was impaled in the middle, her face facing the frost floor, her mind slowly falling into darkness. She tried to muster the last bit of power she could to send Su Yan to oblivion. But she couldn't, as she only muttered in pain. She gritted her teeth, before throwing her daggers with the greatest strength she could. But they only clanged as they landed just before Su Yan's feet. She consoled herself thinking, at least I died in a battle and not in a sick bed. Slash! Another mark appeared on Nelly's arm, but she refused to let her resolve drop because of the injuries her opponent gave her. Instead, she attacked more brazenly with her energy attacks. Although they did carry a load of power, it was all for naught, as her opponent weaved through them. Because of this, she poured more of her spirit qi into her attacks, making them extremely dangerous, but with it, her attack pattern and fighting spirit had disappeared. The opponent, cunning and agile, made use of her speed amplified by her transformed state, slightly inflicting injuries on Nelly to get her to rage more and lose herself, just before she would launch the final blow to kill her. With another slash, Nelly let go in rage, as she wildly released her spirit qi in a circle around her, successfully throwing her opponent away. Unfortunately, the opponent was not to be trifled with. With a tap of her foot on the ship, she dispelled all the force. She paused briefly, and while Nelly was out of breath, she lunged at her to deliver a decisive strike. Nelly, seeing the opponent's figure closing in at an inhuman speed, her claws outstretched, tried to conjure an energy attack. But it was too late, the enemy was going to kill her. She mentally prepared herself, as she thought, "I will self-destruct, taking my opponent down with me." Just then, she only felt a cool breeze against her skin, and a crashing sound, along with the sound of someone wheezing. Confused, Nelly opened her eyes, and the sight she saw stunned her. Icaros had the tough opponent lodged into a wall of the ship, with his hand holding what seemed to be a beating heart. "You, you saved me", managed to escape Nelly's lips as she struggled to suppress the tears welling in her eyes. Icaros smiled, his tattered appearance and bloodied hands not hiding his radiance, before saying, "It's not good to abandon a companion, let alone one of the same sect." Icaros noticed how bad he looked; both hands looked like they had been dipped in blood. He also didn't fancy holding a beating heart. It was just one of the efficient ways to get rid of an opponent, using his strong points unapologetically. Thinking of this, Icaros tore off his already tattered upper wear. He threw away the heart, which he had unknowingly crushed, and wiped his hands with the cloth before discarding it. Now his upper body was bare, revealing his chiseled physique, almost no fat detectable, as his not-too-bulky muscles showed clearly. His abs were all clearly shown. He wasn't fat or slim, nor too muscular to be all muscle. Just a perfect sculpture and enough to look masculine. While this was going on, Nelly was still thinking, "I despised him earlier, but he sees me as a companion. Am I really that horrible?" Realizing this, Nelly softly muttered to Icaros, who was walking over to her. Her lips beautiful and seductive, "Thank you." Icaros revealed a rare carefree smile, before replying, "Eh it's nothing, I was just..." When Nelly interrupted him by hugging him, her hands on his broad and masculine back. Just then, Li Han coughed aloud, interrupting the beautiful moment. It turned out Li Han and Su Yan had dealt with their respective opponents and found their way to the others. Li Han revealed a grin that said something else, before saying, "Sorry to interrupt the beautiful moment, but it's time to go, the ship is about to crash." "About to crash?" Icaros and Nelly, who hadn't fully separated, said, only to be met by Li Han who said, "You better go find something to cover up, you're not the only one with a shredded physique, I used to look much better in my youth." With this, the girls took note of Icaros's physique. While Su Yan appeared calm, Nelly blushed as she realized how intimate she looked with Icaros. She hurriedly scurried to Su Yan's side, something that resembled guilt deep in her eyes, while Su Yan's eyes remained ice cold, not faltered in the least by Icaros's almost superhuman physique. "With our clash, some of the opponent's ship core components were destroyed, and crashing is inevitable," Li Han explained, while he ran to the edge of the ship, theirs just opposite away, while the others followed.

Absolute Dominance: The Billionaire's Vengeance
9.7
For three years, I hid my identity as the sole heiress of a multi-billion dollar tech empire to live in a cramped apartment and support my boyfriend, Ben. But the day before our engagement, I stood outside a meeting room and overheard him talking to his wealthy boss, Haylie. "She's just a stepping stone," Ben laughed, his voice full of contempt. "A poor, ambitionless distraction while I work my way up to where I really belong." He mocked the cheap silver ring he gave me, calling it a necessary prop to keep a naive fool happy. He bragged about the multi-million dollar merger proposal he was presenting, planning to use it to secure his promotion and build a future with her. He had no idea that I had secretly negotiated that entire deal using my real connections just to give him his big break. I had sacrificed my family's comfort, my true identity, and my own career just to watch him rise. I poured my heart and soul into our humble beginnings, only to realize he saw my love as a pathetic joke and me as disposable trash. I calmly picked up a pen and voided the merger agreement, tearing my hard work into tiny pieces. I went home, slid the cheap ring off my finger, and dropped it into his mug of cold coffee. "Soon, you'll find out exactly who is nothing." Walking out the door, I pulled out my phone and texted my billionaire father. "I'm in. Announce the merger."
Claimed By The Exiled Tiger King
7.1
The last thing I remembered was the blinding flash of my starship crashing. But instead of a rescue crew, I woke up tied to a wooden post, surrounded by hostile beastmen. My universal translator kicked in just in time to hear their priestess, Chelsea, declare that I was a cursed demon who ruined their hunt. To save the clan from winter starvation, I was to be burned alive. The flames were already blistering my legs, and jagged stones hurled by the crowd gashed my forehead. I barely negotiated a three-day reprieve to find them food, venturing into the deadly primeval forest. I found a massive supply of wild potatoes and even gained the protection of Bronson, a terrifyingly powerful saber-toothed tiger beastman. But Chelsea wouldn't stop. She labeled my food as poisonous, tried to sentence me to starve in a penitent's cave, and when my agricultural knowledge proved her wrong, she invoked an ancient law. She incited the tribe's savage warriors to fight over me, turning me into breeding property. I was a scientist offering them endless food, yet their primitive ignorance and one woman's vicious jealousy kept pushing me toward a brutal end. I was terrified, completely powerless against their monstrous physical strength. As five ruthless challengers drew their bone axes to claim me, I begged Bronson to leave me and run. Instead, he pulled me against his scarred chest and kissed me fiercely in front of the entire clan. "She is my mate," he roared, unleashing a soul-crushing aura. "Anyone who wants her, come at me together."

Healing My Seven Broken Beast Mates
9.4
My retirement was finally approved, and I was supposed to be sipping drinks on a sunny beach. Instead, a cold system voice forced me into a nightmare scenario: "Cursed Mates Who Want Me Dead." I woke up in a stinking cave, trapped in the body of a psychopathic tribal princess. The memories that flooded my brain made me sick. The original owner of this body had forcibly marked seven of the continent's most powerful beast-men and reduced them to tortured pets. She had ripped the shimmering scales off Jordi the Merfolk prince, gouged out a proud wolf-man's power crystal, and snapped an eagle-man's magnificent wings. Now, Jordi was a mutilated, terrified mess hiding in a corner. He was so traumatized that he tried to slit his own throat just to escape me. His sister was actively trying to assassinate me. To make matters worse, the system warned me that if I didn't heal these seven ticking time bombs, my soul would be erased. Yet the future timeline clearly showed that these men would eventually unite, burn my tribe to the ground, and dismember me alive. I was paying for a monster's sins. Every time I tried to show mercy, they thought it was a sick new torture method. Words were useless, and my very presence was a trigger. But I am a Tier-S operative, and I don't play the victim. I forced the system to unlock my powers and strapped on my tactical gear. "Stay here and don't starve." I left the trembling Merfolk behind and walked into the deadly primitive forest, heading straight for the powerful Oasis Tribe to take back his stolen scales by force.
Rising From Ruin: The Billionaire's Lethal Roommate
8.6
For two years, I was trapped behind my own eyes, a prisoner in my own skull. A crazed fan had hijacked my body after a brutal car crash, wearing my skin like a cheap suit. When my soul finally locked back into my flesh in a cramped hospital room, I realized she had destroyed everything I built. This parasitic stalker had drained my massive fortune to zero, buying luxury gifts for a mediocre actor and turning me into the internet's most hated woman. My phone was flooded with death threats, and the hashtag demanding I go to hell was trending at number one. Even the hospital nurses despised me. One marched into my room, raising her hand to violently slap my pale cheek. "You psychotic bitch, you make me sick!" Worse, my sprawling Beverly Hills estate had been foreclosed and sold to a mysterious billionaire named Kasey Dominguez. I had absolutely nothing left. No money. No reputation. No home. The sheer violation of watching a psychotic stranger ruin my life while I was locked in the passenger seat of my own mind made my blood boil. I refused to let her destroy my legacy. As the nurse's hand descended, my atrophied muscles snapped into action. I twisted her wrist until the joint popped, grabbed the keys to my freedom, and slipped out into the cold Los Angeles night. I was going to take my life back, starting with the billionaire who thought he owned my house.
Sweet Revenge: Kissing My Ex's Uncle
9.0
Eleanora arrived at the city's most exclusive club with a custom cake, ready to surprise her boyfriend of six years, Kason, for his birthday. But when she opened the suite door, she found him pressing her cousin Brielle against the sofa, kissing her passionately. Brielle splashed red wine over Eleanora's silk dress, mocking her as a passionless dead fish. "Get out. Don't stand there and ruin my night." Kason didn't even look guilty as he waved her away like a nuisance. Fleeing in tears, Eleanora accidentally drank a spiked cocktail and stumbled into a dark penthouse pool. She was pulled from the water by Horace Reeves—Kason's terrifying, billionaire uncle and the ruthless black sheep of the family. Drugged and hallucinating, she clung to him and whispered Kason's name. "Since he didn't want you, I'll be happy to take his place." That single word triggered a dark, possessive fury in the billionaire as he pinned her to his bed, claiming her completely. Waking up covered in bruises, she realized her six years of blind loyalty had been a complete joke. She had escaped a cheating boyfriend only to be trapped by the most dangerous predator in Manhattan. Forced by her mother to attend a family dinner that very night, she was suddenly dragged into a dark VIP room by Horace. He kissed her brutally against the door, just as Kason and Brielle walked by and pushed it open. Seeing his uncle pressing his ex-girlfriend against the wall, Kason's jaw went slack in absolute shock. Horace slowly lifted his head, his eyes like chips of ice as he looked at his nephew. "Get out."
