Dianxia is here, exuding beauty, radiance, and power.
Inklore revealed the cover for the fifth volume of Heaven Official’s Blessing and it’s a softer illustration after the Hua Cheng cover for Volume 4. Xie Lian has his hand out, allowing a silver butterfly to perch on his finger. Pink flowers hang around him while he lounges, his sword in his lap while the other silver butterflies fluttering around. Lit lanterns illuminate the dark night.
The English print version will also feature an exclusive doodle from the artist STARember, showcasing chibi Hua Cheng holding a cup with his iconic red umbrella by his side. The first edition, similar to the release for the first volume, will have designed sprayed edges, custom endpapers, a deluxe jacket, and a custom case stamp with gold foil.
The synopsis for Vol. 5 reads:
The infamous Banyue State Preceptor has been captured and, unexpectedly, she recognizes Xie Lian and calls him “General Hua.” As the truth of Xie Lian’s past in the Kingdom of Banyue comes to light, he realizes that it wasn’t the Preceptor who lured him and his companions here. Worse, she can’t control the scorpion-snakes anymore—they heed someone else’s commands.
Meanwhile, Xie Lian is reeling from San Lang’s transformation in the Sinner’s Pit. The easygoing youth is a being of incredible power—and one without a heartbeat. Instead of being unnerved or suspicious, Xie Lian finds himself reluctant to push San Lang away, despite the heavens-shattering name he now suspects belongs to the red-clad young man.
Based on Mo Xiang Tong Xiu’s popular danmei series, Heaven Official’s Blessing follows an unlucky god named Xie Lian who was once a beloved prince among the mortals and god among the heavens. After being banished twice, Xie Lian has become the laughingstock of all three realms. When he ascends for an unprecedented third time, it turns the heavens upside down. With multiple palaces destroyed, Xie Lian now has to find some way to pay the damages but with no followers and therefore no power, he can’t do much except descend to the mortal realm to hunt down ghosts. There, he meets a mysterious red-robed young man who seems to know a lot about Xie Lian.
