What is a small southern town with warm mountains and gentle water suitable for? Fall in love.... more>>

Yan Liang: The name is in the shape of loving you. ¹

Shi An: …Afraid of the sun.²

I think.

You’ve probably learned the magic of warming hearts .

Notes:
1. ….是爱你的形状 (… is in the shape of loving you) is a meme. It’s basically Yan Liang confessing his love for Shi An
2. This is a word play on his name. Yan Liang’s Yan consists of 日 on top of 安, and Shi An’s An is also (安). Basically, Shi An adds 日 on his 安 so he feels very hot because the sun is on top of him, so that’s why he says he’s afraid of the sun. <<less

This is the story of Phoenix Wisdom King and a Grand Demon just awakened from Hell.... more>>

***

On an ancient battlefield, two armies stood in a stalemate. On one side were the Arhats, Gods, and Buddhas from the Heavenly Realm. On the other side were the monsters and demons from the Blood Sea of the Hell Realm.

The personification of that Grand Demon leaped forward, holding a long sword across his chest. He flew across the battlefield, brazenly cutting in half eleven Phoenix Bone Arrows, each of which was enough to destroy the world.

Then, he arrived in front of Phoenix Wisdom King, standing high above the masses:

“Your Highness, please don’t move—”

“I didn’t come to wage war. I came to propose to you.”

Phoenix was the Buddha’s inescapable Tribulation for thirty-thousand years, whereas Zhou Hui was Phoenix’s redemption that could free him from the fate of his eternal life.

After hundreds of thousands of years of endless light and shadow, this handsome yet devilish man finally emerged from Hell—

To bring Phoenix Wisdom King away from the transcendent Buddhist Kingdom and the boundless Lotus Sea.

“Let me follow you to that world. For you, I’ll be invincible forever—”

You’re my shore after swimming across hundreds of miles of water. You’re my destination after traveling through thousands of miles of land. <<less

He entered a horror game and unexpectedly they had a chance encounter.

The man in front, a resentful bloody ghost crawling out of a closet to his back rushing towards him to take his life.

The situation was life threatening. Naturally, he didn’t have time for hypocrisy.

Lu Qingjia stepped forward and pulled out the ghost slowly crawling its way and yelled: “Why the f*ck are you so slow? With your sluggish and foolish manner you won’t even be able to eat sh*t while it’s hot and you still want to eat people”. Then, he hid inside the closet and refused to come out.

Ghost: ……?

The next time they met, the person said towards him: “Either come out or just sleep in the well together with that water ghost in your arms.”

Lu Qingjia; “This isn’t a matter of self esteem, it’s just that we hit it off, I want to chat with him all night and let him feel the long-lost warmth”

The six of us spent our college days in Kyoto. Ten years ago at the Kurama Fire Festival, Hasegawa vanished into thin air.

I became a wizard of the Illusion Magic School and decided to create a virtual reality with illusion magic to play a tabletop role-playing game (TRPG).... more>>

It was great to create a virtual reality, but I was in trouble because there were no suitable players. During that time, I received an offer to be the professor from the Royal Academy.

The offer was to use illusion magic to fill the students’ lack of practical experience safely. And so, I became a professor at the academy.

“Send me back, send me back to that world right now-!”

“Outer god, someday an outer god will be our doom, we’ll all die!!”

“I am not the bastard of the Redburn Ducal Family. I am the foremost disciple of the Great Namgung Clan, Namgung Qinghui!”

But it seems there is a bit of a misunderstanding.

Ranen, in a twist of fate, found himself transported into the body of a hapless soul who had just escaped from a fire, inheriting a second life and an inhuman beauty.... more>>

Sounds like a jackpot start, just short of reaching the pinnacle of life, right?

Indeed, Ranen thought so too, if it weren't for the existence of 'K-series' dark gods in this world.

#Monsters seem to really like him#

#Question: In such a world, being a heartthrob, do I still have hope?#

Ranen had given up, quietly awaiting death in a nightmarish hospital, when someone stumbled into his world, willing to pay with their life just to see him survive.

Ranen was deeply moved, until he came across a gaming forum.

#Just died, sharing my new wife with everyone. I've become the moonlight in my wife's eyes!#

#...Something's not right, run! Your wife is clearly a dark god!#

Way back, a man came up to Hakyung, who was at the time struggling to pay for his mother’s hospital bills. That man introduced himself as the chairman of Taewon Group and said he was looking for his father’s caretaker. The person he was looking for was a young girl’s grandmother, who resided in Hakyung’s neighborhood when he was young. Although, that family had long passed away. The man proposed to Hakyung to dress up as the young girl and play the role of his father’s caretaker. Hakyung, who was desperate to pay his mother’s hospital bills, took the man up on his offer. Hakyung succeeded to deceive the grandfather under the pretense of being... more>> the caretaker and everything was going smoothly, according to the plan. Until the man’s son came into the picture.

So it didn’t matter who the bride was going to be. Pretty or ugly, addicted to shopping or depressed, promiscuous or virtuous. The important thing was what the bride would bring to the table.

However, she was different.

He recalled Yuan, who had been sitting so gracefully in front of the magnolia tree. Her white, slender face, pure smile, and her brown eyes looking at him.

Crack. His chest hurt. Damn it, it hurt so much that he began to curse.

***

Their bodies perfectly became one. Their entangled bodies, legs interlocked, embracing each other. They moved as one as if they were searching for salvation.

“If you begin seeing another man, I’ll kill you.”

He sharply bit the nape of her neck.

“I’m warning you now, but I’ll really kill you. Don’t even look at them. Don’t talk to them. Don’t even acknowledge their presence.”

Yuan let out a soft moan and couldn’t respond.

In the year 891 of the Glorious Calendar, a new Demon King was born at the bottom of the abyss.... more>>

The demon race that has been sealed for over two hundred years resurfaced from the abyss, defeating the human race and making them constantly retreat.

The army pushed towards the royal city, and the Holy Monarch of the human race fought alone against the Demon King for three days and three nights. The protection of the God of Light never came until the Holy Monarch was exhausted and defeated.

The desperate people insulted him, spurned him, and insisted that his conviction must be impure. Even questioning the conviction itself, allowing the raging fire to burn down the Brett Temple.

Three days later, the demon army mysteriously retreated.

And disappeared together, was also the trace of the Holy Monarch.

People who were too regretful searched everywhere, but no one knew where the young king, who had always been kind, had gone.

Until the spring breeze melted the snow in the ruins of the temple, and the autumn breeze buried the withered herbs.

****

It was said that in those days, as a condition for retreating, the Demon King took away a human as his own spoil and s*ave.

The s*ave has a pair of violet eyes, and when they smile, it always feels a bit sad. It was none other than His Majesty the Holy Monarch who once lived in the temple.
　　.
One afternoon, after a long time, the flowers of the Gasuo Abyss bloomed.
　
Flowers were planted by the s*ave themselves, the Demon King had mocked him a lot at that time, because human flowers will never bloom in the abyss.

Unexpectedly, they really thrive, resulting in the Demon King to be in a good mood. Thinking about his past of venting hatred and harm on the s*ave, but now that the times have changed, it has become a relationship where he can snuggle up and admire the flowers together.

The Demon King believed that in the future, he could be more kind to the s*ave. For example, stop making this person a s*ave and choose a good day to be crowned as the Queen of the Demon King.

Langmuir quietly rested on the Demon King’s shoulder, with a clear light in his eyes.

Stepping into this dark abyss for seven years, it feels like a big dream. Now, he knew clearly that he had run out of oil and was about to die.

But today, he is fortunate to see the flowers blooming in the abyss like a tapestry.

He thought to himself: I can now finally close my eyes in peace.

——I came to the abyss to plant a flower for you to wash away my sins. <<less

Suddenly became a LEGO bunny toy of someone whose name I'd rather not mention.

Jude caught a serial killer who puts New York in a big panic. The name is Alvin Jones. Alvin is outwardly normal like any office worker. His demeanour and attitude make people highly unlikely to associate him with serial killings. However, his crime was discovered and he was caught. ... more>>

For some reason, he finds that Detective Jude is an interesting person. Hence, he only talks when being interrogated by Detective Jude inside the interrogation room.

After his escape, his letters consistently reached Jude, and he seems to always help Jude whenever Jude is in trouble. Is there more to it than what it is on the surface? <<less

The man was sitting in a wheelchair, half of his face was covered by shadows and he had a set of peach blossom eyes with deep double eyelids. He obviously had a passionate face but his expression was as cold as ice.

Shu Nian held her umbrella and called out to him in uncertainty. Then, she said. “Did you not bring an umbrella? How about I—”

Xie Ruhe’s eyes drooped, he didn’t finish listening to her and went straight into the light rain.

Later, Shu Nian came out of the bakery holding a kraft paper bag. In a blink of an eye, the rain had turned heavy, pounding on the concrete floor.

Xie Ruhe appeared from nowhere, holding an umbrella as he stood beside her. Seeing her look over to him, he asked. “Do you have an umbrella?”

Shu Nian nodded and took out an umbrella from her bag. The next moment, Xie Ruhe stretched out his hand to close his umbrella and blankly said: “Mine is broken.”

Fellow cultivators respected him, disciples admired him, and demon cultivators feared him. If it weren't for his ignorant, incompetent, and inconsiderate Dao companion, he would have been almost perfect.
