Phoenix Rising: The Scarred Heiress's Revenge

I lived as the "scarred ghost" of the Stephens penthouse, a wife kept in the shadows because my facial burns offended my billionaire husband's aesthetic. For years, I endured Kason's coldness and my family's abuse, a submissive puppet who believed she had nowhere else to go. The end came with a blue folder tossed onto my silk sheets. Kason's mistress was back, and he wanted me out by sunset, offering a five-million-dollar "silence fee" to go hide my face in the countryside. The betrayal cut deep when I discovered my father had already traded my divorce for a corporate bailout. My step-sister mocked my "trashy" appearance at a high-end boutique, while the sales staff treated me like a common thief. At home, my father threatened to cut off my mother's life-saving medicine unless I crawled back to Kason to beg for a better deal. I was the girl who took the blame for a fire she didn't start, the wife who worshipped a man who never looked her in the eye, and the daughter used as a human bargaining chip. I was supposed to be broken, penniless, and desperate. But the woman who stood up wasn't the weak Elease Finch anymore; she was Phoenix, a tactical predator with a $500 million secret. I signed the divorce papers without a single tear, walked past my stunned husband, and wiped the Finch family's bank accounts clean with a few taps on my phone. "Your money is dirty," I told Kason with a cold smile. "I prefer clean hands." The cage is open, the hunt has begun, and I'm starting with the people who thought a scar made me weak.

The current world, divided into two continents which held seven kingdoms altogether.

One continent was called Water, and the other was Fire. On the continent Water, four kingdoms ruled; these were Lie, Si, Feng, and Jin. On the continent Fire, three kingdoms rules; these were Chi, Ling and Can.

For over one thousand years, the two continents had a long-standing feud and continuously warred with each other. As time went, the conflicts between the seven countries increased.

Fortunately, apart from wars springing up now and then, they were able to trade and communicate as their language and currencies were similar. Overall, for one thousand years, they resided in a neutral state.

This, however, was about to be changed as the prediction of the Fearless Armor unfolded.
