Lord of Fates — Book 1: The Weight of Ten Thousand Fates

Kai Chen died on a Tuesday. He still doesn’t know exactly how. What he does know: he’s been transmigrated into the body of Ye Liang — second son of a merchant family in the vast and ancient world of the Shenkai Expanse. He has a new name, a new family, and a new life that fits around him like a coat someone else broke in. He also has something else. Something that woke up quietly on his first night in this world — ancient, vast, and patient as stone. The Fate Distribution Authority. An institution older than recorded history that exists between the cracks of the multiverse. Its purpose: to find destined hosts across ten thousand worlds and bind them to systems — golden fingers — tailored to their potential and their path. As its new Operator, Kai Chen holds the power to shape legends he will never personally witness. Every system he sends out finds a host. Every host that grows stronger feeds power back to him. He just has to make sure nobody finds out. In the Shenkai Expanse, he is Ye Liang — a merchant’s son climbing the world’s power structure one careful step at a time. Unremarkable. Unhurried. Exactly as forgettable as he needs to be. In the space between worlds that only he can access, he is something else entirely. Across the multiverse, legends are beginning to stir. A girl with quick hands in a city of iron towers. A beast tamer at the edge of a wilderness no map has charted. A cultivator whose dao touches something his sect elders cannot explain. A lord who builds territory on land everyone else abandoned. None of them know they are connected. None of them know who is watching. Lord of Fates is a multiverse cultivation epic about patience, hidden power, and the weight of ten thousand destinies resting in the hands of one very ordinary man who reads too many webnovels.
