Xia Sheng and Yue Qin were a couple that would give others faith in love. They both fell in love at first sight in their first year of high school. The two dated in university and got married after their graduation. In the first year of their working lives, Xia Sheng became pregnant and delivered their son.... more>>

When their son turned one, he was diagnosed with mutism. Life was tough for the little couple, but it was still sweet.

Yue Qin’s company welcomed its new boss. He was an insensitive fuerdai*. During their company’s annual event, where employees were invited to a meal with their family members, the new boss heartlessly fired Yue Qin just because his son didn’t say any words of blessing. He stated that Yue Qin’s mute son was detrimental to the company’s image.

When Yue Qin returned home and saw his wife and son, he held back the fact that he had just been fired and immediately scoured for new jobs.

The next day, the new boss drank and drove. He brought himself into a car accident and fell into a coma on site.

When the new boss opened his eyes again, he saw the employee he had fired a day ago. His eyes were filled with benevolence——

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…

The boundless universe was filled with all sorts of wonders.... more>>

I, Chen *Ping'an, only have one sword, to move mountains, turn the seas upside down, suppress demons, deal with gods, pluck stars, break rivers, destroy cities, and open the heavenly abode!

My name is Chen Ping'an, Ping'an* of Peace, and I am a swordsman.

The Midland world was full of wonders.

In the center of the world, there was a scholar who had once used a sword to slash out a waterfall of the Milky Way. This was the person he was the most proud of.

At the edge of the East Sea’s cliffs, there was a nameless Daoist who was unwilling to ascend to the peak of a mountain. He only wished for a cool breeze to brush against his face.

In the Western Pure Land, there was an old monk who liked to treat people to chicken soup and tell stories.

In the southern border of the Wilderness, there was a blind painter who controlled golden-armored puppets that were as tall as mountains to move the hundred thousand mountains, creating an embroidered picture.

An impoverished youth who grew up in the north. One day, he saw tens of thousands of Sword Kinesis Immortals above him, like a swarm of locusts crossing the border.

He wanted to see for himself the scholar that the storyteller had mentioned, the surging tides of the East Sea, the vast swamps of sand in the west, and the majestic mountains of the Southern Wasteland.

Thus, one day, the youth picked up the wooden sword and began to descend south.

Fei Ni preferred having a house over love. ... more>>

If it weren't for the requirement to marry in order to get a house, Fei Ni would never have married Fang Muyang.

To outsiders, it seemed as though Fei Ni had chosen Fang Muyang solely for his looks, as there was little else to commend him for beyond his handsome face.

As time went on, Fang Muyang's renown soared due to his exceptional talent in painting, and his parents' social status was restored. Everyone praised Fei Ni's discerning eye, acknowledging that she had recognized Fang Muyang's latent brilliance long before others.

Little did they know, this was a journey that started with youthful innocence, evolving into an enduring companionship. It was difficult to discern whether it was the blossoming of unrequited love or the result of a fateful encounter through marriage...
