Kang De awakened the Law of Two Blossoms, helped the Goths fight the elves and the Black Beasts, and learned of a coming Veil Invasion. He left the archipelago seeking answers, but after Cleveland died in Glittering Sand, Kang De took revenge by destroying Glittering Sand Manor.
Kang De returned to Goth, reunited with his allies, and helped Valentan resist the elves while Tina’s scheme threatened to collapse. After escaping an elven trap, he returned to the besieged city and refused to abandon it as the assault began.
Kang De saved Valentan, rallied the Goth People, and negotiated with Tagelise while facing hidden forces and threats on Earth. The volume left him in Serbia arranging weapons as his father remained detained in Comora and Tina faced danger in Goth.
Kang De rescued his father in Comora, defeated Little Bob and Tacitus, and helped drive back the elves. He secured a dragon mercenary squad for Goth and left his relationship with Tina and the dragon girl unresolved.
Kang De survived an assassination attempt, secured aid for Horus’s repairs, and defeated the Grewind Swarm while expanding his authority in Comora and Zhuerban. Back in Goth, he uncovered a corrupting underground energy and fought a corrupted dragon while searching for the missing dragon delegation.
Kang De defeated Cuixisi, returned to Goth, and built an independent power base in Distant Harbor after breaking with its nobles. He crushed a manufactured grain crisis and invaded the Broken Isles, where he exposed the Star Palace’s sacrifices and faced its ruler.
Kang De evacuated the Broken Isles, fought the God of the Star Palace, and organized alliances and government as the threat spread. After exposing a British cover-up tied to An Youyi’s kidnapping, he planted a tracker on Ian Crook to pursue the conspiracy.
Kang De defeated the Round Table, outmaneuvered the Starry Sky Council over Yilan-Tai'er, and expanded Distant Harbor into a major power by bringing in survivors, prisoners, and Cathay’s delegation. With rival nations preparing for war and Griffin seeking Phaethon’s aid, Kang De began a weapons-focused war game.
Kang De used the Titan crisis to secure leverage and allies, then led Distant Harbor’s campaign against Griffin, the Council, and the Star Palace. He took control of the northern counties and began gathering the Empire’s resources as the Star Palace prepared to return.
