I am just an ordinary herb-gathering girl at the foot of the mountain. When the female protagonist of the cultivation story runs away in a fit of anger, she casually sets my home on fire.... more>>

When I return from gathering herbs, all that's left is the charred ground; my family has been reduced to ash.

Yet she cried pitifully and throws herself into the arms of her lofty, ethereal immortal lord.

He looked down with a cold expression: "The death of such lowly mortals is trivial; Fu Ling, do not let this disturb your Dao heart."

I endured in silence, biding my time like a dog who has lost its home.

Later, I astounded the land of Nine Provinces with a single sword strike, and with a cold laugh, I reduced them all to ashes:

"How does it feel to die by the hands of a lowly mortal?" <<less

Living deprived of freedom, yet holding onto the hope of someday seeing the sea, I spent each day.

Until I met the boy dying alone in the forest.

"You're not one of my people. Who are you?"
"S-Se...secret."

From that intertwined fate, waves began to ripple through my quiet daily life, much like a still lake.

"Outside is dangerous, Seri. Always be careful! Why is this simple request so difficult for you?"

Little by little,

"I am a liar, little miss."

Little by little,

"Of course. From the moment you became mine, I belong to you."

Little by little.

Until finally, everything surrounding me reversed, swallowed mercilessly by that enormous wave.

"Hush."

The girl who didn't want to become an adult and the boy who had to become one,

"Ru, no, Your Highness, I want to propose a contractual engagement."
"Go on, say it once more."

Finally embracing the tangled destiny, they became adults. <<less

Born to a house where women were only seen as tools to birth children, I was already in my twenties. I was standing on the crossroads of life.... more>>

At my fingertips were close to fifty photos of different men. They were the marriage partner candidates my father had prepared.

Those who took the initiative and volunteered because they wanted his company, and those that were recommended to strengthen our ties with other companies. There were various reasons, but I was to marry one, and build up a child.

That was my reason for existence in this house.

I don’t think I can love another.

I wonder how everyone believes in something so shapeless as love. It was only a marvel to me.

That I couldn’t do something any standard person could must be because I was a person who was never properly loved.

I put a break on the countless unanswered questions I held since my birth, and stared down at the photos around me.

That I chose him was truly a coincidence. <<less

For the past six years, the only thing I've been doing besides eating and waiting for death is digging dog holes, because I know that my second imperial brother is the male protagonist in this book, and after he usurps the throne, I will become the chicken in the 'kill the chicken to scare the monkey' scenario.

That's right, I've been transmigrated into this book since I was born. I know all the plots in this book and have memorized all of them in my mind. But, aside from that, all I have is this not-so-smart brain of mine.

I've never thought about competing for favor to increase my sense of presence.. because I know that I can't win. I've never underestimated the IQ of the ancient people, and I don't feel that I will have a chance to win just because I'm a transmigrator. <<less

In a Mary-Sue novel, the readers all liked the Devil Venerable, the second male lead who devoted himself whole-heartedly to the female lead. However the female lead only loved the male lead who abused her physically and mentally.... more>>

Readers: Why doesn’t the female lead like the Devil Venerable?!

Devil Venerable: This Venerable also wants to know. But what I really want to know is why I even like the female lead at all.

In order to understand why the female lead wasn’t attracted to him, the self-conscious Devil Venerable brutally interrogated the entire cast of characters from the novel.

Background characters: I have so many things I want to say but I don’t dare to say it to his face!

After obtaining the book, the Devil Venerable discovered that the book described the world he lived in. This book said that after he sacrificed himself for the female lead, the fourth male lead, his silent and loyal subordinate Yin Hanjiang, blackened and attempted to kill her as a sacrificial offering for his lord.

Devil Venerable Wenren E: Yin Hanjiang, this Venerable wants to know why you wanted to kill the female lead.

Yin Hanjiang was silent.

Wenren E: If you refuse to speak, this Venerable will cut out your tongue and have it with alcohol!

Yin Hanjiang: …

One day, I – a high schooler – found a paperback in the hospital. The “Disease Coexistence Journal” was its title. It was a diary that my classmate, Sakura Yamauchi, had written in secret. Inside, it was written that due to her pancreatic disease, her days were numbered. And thus, I coincidentally went from Just-a-Classmate to a Secret-Knowing-Classmate. It was as if I were being drawn to her, who was my polar opposite. However, the world presented the girl that was already suffering from an illness with an equally cruel reality…... more>>

“Until the day humanity falls.”... more>>

In the year 2020, Earth’s magnetic poles disappeared and humankind was nearly wiped out by cosmic radiation. Within the span of a hundred years, living creatures began to mutate and devour each other while the remaining humans, numbering in the tens of thousands, struggled bitterly in their man-made bases.

In the Abyss, home to the mutated xenogenics, there lived a sentient little mushroom. Because it had been nourished by the blood and flesh of the deceased human An Ze, not only did it take on a similar-looking human form, but a similar name as well: An Zhe.

An Zhe is determined to go to the human base to search for his spore, which had been harvested by humans. Once there, however, he faces the omnipresent risk of discovery and certain death as he tries to keep his non-human nature hidden from the Judges, whose responsibility is to inspect for and eliminate xenogenics like himself. And of all the Judges, Colonel Lu Feng is the most perceptive and merciless—as soon as he determines that someone is a xenogenic, he will execute that person on the spot.

But An Zhe’s mutation goes undetected by Lu Feng’s eyes, and so a tale of humans and xenogenics unfolds…

Legend has it that Ji Yushi was this kind of genius.

In addition, it was said that he was gay and very beautiful.

As soon as the news that he was going to support Tianqiong’s seventh squad broke out, it sent everyone buzzing.

Everyone knew that the captain of the seventh squad, Song Qinglan, was a hoodlum and deeply homophobic.

He not only relied on his super-powerful abilities to become the dark horse on the battlefield in less than two years, but he also hates it when those at the top forced a flower vase* into his squad.

Sure enough, Song Qinglan announced in front of everyone, “Useful? Us brothers are going out there working ourselves to the bone, we don’t need a little genius who can only speedread quantum waves!”

Later.

The squad was forced into a dire situation during their mission.

That beautiful little genius calmly continued, every gunfire hitting the mark, his fighting power peaking.

Song Qinglan begged in front of everyone, “Adviser Ji, stay.”

In the end, he added, “I’ll work myself to the bone for you.”

*****

Ji Yushi had a secret.

He would often be awake at night, suffering from memory overload and recurring nightmares.

There was only one thing that could let him fall asleep peacefully.

And that was Song Qinglan.

When we were done with the marriage, those words I nonchalantly tossed at her. For a moment, she made a face of surprise, before smiling as she assented.

“That’s fine. It’s only a matter if I can get you to fall before that, right?”

Her challenging words somehow made her out as a gallant warrior, making me open my eyes wide for a second. And within the day, I had inputted, ‘the probability I can kill my wife without being found out,’ into my glasses.

Liang Qiuchi was shot several times on his way to the military court, and his head was seriously injured.... more>>

When he woke up, he couldn't see, and he couldn't remember anything.

To this, Mo Xin only lamented for a minute before readily accepting this fact.

Liang Qiuchi abandoned him for a whole eight years, only compensating with a pair of eyes, which was already considered cheap for him.

Mo Xin was the youngest and most promising general in the Federation, nicknamed the "War Machine".

During the day, he was aloof and cold as ice, yet at night, he would lose himself to another man.

Mo Xin thought no one would see his infatuation.

But he failed to notice the gradually gathering starlight in Liang Qiuchi's already bleak eyes.

"Mo Xin, I don't understand why you saved me but refuse to let me regain my sight?"
"Because I want you to stay by my side, even if you're broken."
"Do you want me to be a dog tied to your side forever?!"
"Yes."

Liang Qiuchi (top) vs. Mo Xin (bottom), strong vs. strong, 1v1, Happily Ever After (HE).
