Celestial Dog. The Salvation of the Soul of the Unfortunate (set of 2 books + shopper I'd rather be reading now than all of this...)

U Chan is the heir of the northern clan U. As soon as he was born, he became a sign for his people, and it echoed here and there: “The Silver-haired Lord will be a god and glorify the Northern side!”
But from the very beginning, everything went off plan: U Chan's complicated relationship with his parents, the emergence of others like him, future gods thirsting for power, and bloodthirsty demons complicate the young man's path to the Heavens. Moreover, his dearly beloved mentor — Lord Go Bohai — turned out to be not so simple and hides a soul-chilling secret…
With all this, the heir of the U clan must sort it out and cope in order to become a god. But… does he even want it?

The heir of the U clan finally returns from the capital of Lunyuan to his ancestral estate, to his teacher, in hopes of regaining lost inner peace. However, the world is steadily changing, and nothing will be the same as before.
Tormented by the ghosts of the past, Go Bohai no longer understands the true desires of his student, which languish deep in his heart. He makes gentle attempts to focus the heir's thoughts on the main goal — ascension. Meanwhile, all future gods must gather again, Xiangjiang shows its face, and U Chan cannot decide what worries him more: the danger of not acquiring spiritual powers on the Misty Ridge or losing his mentor.
