Alert! The Dragon Lord has emerged from seclusion

Five years. That was how long Lin Chen spent behind bars, paying for a crime he didn't commit to settle a debt of gratitude. But his sentence was no ordinary punishment; it was a hidden blessing. Within the cold walls of the prison, he was claimed by seven formidable masters who saw his potential and poured their lifetimes of peerless secret techniques into him, forging him into a master of arts both profound and forbidden. Now a free man, Lin Chen returns to a world that sees him only as an ex-convict, his true power a secret he guards closely. His freedom, however, is immediately shackled by his adoptive parents' greed. They demand he "bring good luck" to a comatose heiress, offering him as a groom to a wealthy family and dangling a thirty-million-yuan dowry as a bribe. With a quiet, unreadable smile, Lin Chen agrees. But he is no one's pawn. In a stunning turn, he produces not one, but seven marriage certificates, revealing that his future was long ago decided by his masters. And the first name on the list? Su Qingxue, the renowned beauty of Jiangnan, the very woman he is being forced to marry. This is no simple arranged marriage to awaken a sleeping bride. It is the final piece of a grand design, the step that will bring him face to face with the destiny his masters had orchestrated from the beginning.
