Right up until the day that You Zhengping receives a notice that a power great enough to destroy the world has appeared in his home. 

Worried that something will happen to Yu Hua, an ordinary person, You Zhengping hurries home with his team. Once through the door, he sees a peaceful home, Yu Hua wearing an apron, a lifted frying pan in his hand, and a fish, golden on both sides and its aroma wafting around, frying in the pan. 

Seeing You Zhengping, Yu Hua puts the frying pan on the switched-off electric stove and wipes his hands on his apron. “I wanted to save on the electricity bill.” 

You Zhengping: …

The entire world’s most awesome Destroyer is his husband.  <<less

The story is staged in the distant future within our own Milky Way Galaxy, approximately in the late 36th century. A portion of the galaxy is filled with terraformed worlds inhabited by interstellar traveling human beings. For 150 years two mighty space powers have intermittently warred with each other: the Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance.... more>>

Within the Galactic Empire, based on mid 19th century Prussia, an ambitious military genius, Reinhard von Müsel, later conferred Reinhard von Lohengramm, is rising to power. He is driven by the desire to free his sister Annerose, who was taken by the Kaiser as a concubine. Later, he wants not only to end the corrupt Goldenbaum dynasty but also to defeat the Free Planets Alliance and to unify the whole galaxy under his rule.

In the Free Planets Alliance Star Fleet is another genius, Yang Wen Li. He originally aspired to become a historian through a military academy, and joined the tactical division only out of need for tuition money. He was rapidly promoted to an admiral because he demonstrated excellence in military strategy in a number of decisive battles and conflicts. He becomes the archrival of Reinhard, though they highly respect one another. Unlike Reinhard he is better known for his underdog victories and accomplishments in overcoming seemingly impossible odds and mitigating casualties and damages due to military operations.

As a historian, Yang often predicts the motives behind his enemies and narrates the rich history of his world and comments on it. One of his famous quotes is: “There are few wars between good and evil; most are between one good and another good.”

Besides the two main heroes, the story is full of vivid characters and intricate politics. All types of characters, from high nobility, admirals and politicians, to common soldiers and farmers, are interwoven into the story. The story frequently switches away from the main heroes to the Unknown Soldier fighting for his life on the battlefield.

There is a third neutral power nominally attached to the Galactic Empire called the Phezzan Dominion, a planet-state (city-state on a galactic scale) which trades with both warring powers. There is also a Terraism cult, which claims that humans should go back to Earth, gaining popularity throughout the galaxy. Throughout the story executive political figures of Phezzan in concert with the upper-hierarchy of the Terraism cult orchestrate a number of conspiracies to shift the tide of the galactic war so that it may favor their objectives. <<less

*The Four Great Female Constables – Book 2/4... more>>

The first time Hua Qianqian met Yeqing, she was angry.

“Are you a killer?”

“Are you a constable?”

A killer meets a constable.

Similar to a dog seeing a cat, there are extreme ferocity and a mu*derous aura.

“I will arrest him and bring him to justice first, then later, you can find a chance to kill him. Then both of us won’t suffer a loss, what do you say?”

Yeqing was speechless. As a constable, she did not stop him from killing and even negotiated with him?

The second time they met, she smiled.

“Why didn’t you do a proper job as a killer but work as a male prostitute to let your chrysanthemum be poked? Did you lose your job?”

“Similarly, you quit your job as a constable and became a dancer, are you unable to hold on to your job?”

“Che! Being a constable is only a part-time job. A dancer makes a lot of money, don’t you know that?”

Yeqing was speechless again. Is the unconventional constable making fun of a professional killer?

The third time they met, she became familiar with him.

“it’s been a long time since we met. Did you change your job to become a painter? Ah……are you painting me?”

Holding up the portrait she cast an ambiguous look at him. To be on the receiving end of a secret crush is a bit embarrassing.

Yeqing said coldly. “That is your reward poster. Someone put up a bounty for your head.” <<less

"Huh?"

Did I just come back to life four years after my death? All I had was my body, so there was only one way to survive.

Becoming a maid.

“You’ve never worked as a maid before this, so what have you been doing all this time?”

“Jobless.”

“What motivated you to apply for this job?”

“Money.”

“What kind of mansion would you like to work in?”

“A mansion that is so hard to work in and so nasty that we don’t even know if it’ll be cleaned if we both work and die.”

As his pocket grew thinner, he decided to go around and offered his services like a door-to-door salesman,

“Do you have any enemy? One head is one…fifty taels.”

The question lingers in Feng Ning’s mind.

Other people treat her coldly, claiming she is insidious, cunning and selfish. There were even rumors of her not being a virtuous wife and having illicit affairs with other men. However, she had no such memories.

She thought that the County Princess was both beautiful and powerful and worthy of sacrificing her life for. So when she was appointed as the County Princess’s guard and was told by her senior sister to ‘be nice’, Ming Qin managed to ‘nicely’ sacrifice herself. It is only when her senior sister grabs Ming Qin by the ear and scolds her for being a s*upid idiot that Ming Qin realises that she has to be ‘nice’ because the County Princess likes her.

Ming Qin went to the Boudoir and apologised to the County Princess, “I’m sorry I didn’t quite understand before.” Finding herself desperately longing to use the rouge on the County Princess’s lips, she added, “But I seem to understand it better now.”

The once peerless beauty Murong Yan was imprisoned in a tower with her crippled body in tow, like a canary that couldn’t fly out of its cage. Therefore when she saw a foolish shadow guard inexplicably appear, she only took advantage of the situation to pass the time.

When the reckless shadow guard brought warmth into her heart that resembled eternal winter, she no longer thought there would be a reason to regain her former glory, nor a reason to take revenge, and because of a little shadow guard, it felt like anything was possible.

So when the person she had lost had returned to her, Murong Yan did everything to keep her, kissing the person in her arms frantically and whimpering, “Use me, as long as you don’t leave again.” <<less

A genius schemer, creating an emperor!... more>>

“Only when your brother is happy can you be happy.”

She committed all kinds of evil deeds to make him Emperor. However, Artezia’s devotion was repaid with betrayal. It was the Grand Duke Cedric, a righteous enemy, that gave her a hand of salvation at the threshold of death.

“Devise a plan.”
“…”
“I can’t think of anyone but you who can reverse this situation. Marquess Rosan.”
“…”
“Lend me your strength.”

There is no plan that can reverse the already declining power and save the fallen empire. However, there is a method. To turn back time before everything went wrong.

With tears of blood she sacrificed her body to an ancient magic. This time, she will not fall.

Artezia, who returned to the age of 18 before death, resolved to become a villainess for the Grand Duke Cedric.

But then, when I saw the man that came to destroy the research institute, I realized that this was the world of an angst-filled reverse harem novel.

While living a relatively normal life after escaping from the institute, the heroine of the novel moved in next door.

From the looks of it, I might be the heroine’s neighbor extra.

Originally, the heroine was to save the unconscious and fatally wounded villain and in return, be subject to a fanatical obsession.

But, why. Why is the sub-villain collapsed in front of my house?

The sub-villain, Lakis Avalon, was the king of the underworld and the very same frightening man that I had met at the institute before.

The Jiang and the Sui Empires are sworn enemies. Both sides have been fighting back and forth for decades, each trying to press the other to death by the Yellow River.... more>>

In order to achieve this goal, the Sui Empire dispatched the Lone Star, Crown Prince Sui Heng, who’s known for his cold-blooded killing methods, straight to attack the capital city of Jiang.

The Jiang Empire has sent their Crown Prince Jiang Yun, whose reputation for virtue has spread throughout the world and who has recruited countless famous scholars, to lead his trusted aides to secretly infiltrate the enemy’s rear and interfere with their plans.

Both sides were very pleased with their results.

It turned out there was a little accident when they retreated.

Jiang Yun was assassinated by his subordinates, rolled down the cliff, and picked up by Sui Heng, who was also schemed by others.

In order to cure the poison, the two were forced to have s*x……

Afterwards, looking at that snow-white and stunning face, Sui Heng, who had always rejected having s*xual interc**rse with men and women had difficulty controlling his pounding heart.

He took this little beauty that he accidentally picked up back and raise him as a Wai Shi in the other residence.

Jiang Yun thought that it was impossible to escape, so he played along and pretended to have amnesia. While dutifully serving the Great Lone Star as a Wai Shi, he spied on the enemy’s information.

As a result, he hasn’t spied out much information yet, but his belly is getting bigger day by day.

Jiang Yun: Ah, ah, ah, may I ask if it’s still possible to run away now?

**

His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, whom the Jiang Empire has been looking forward to day and night, has finally returned to his home country.

Not only did he come back, but he also brought a little oil bottle along as well.

No one knows who the child’s father is, and no one dares to ask either.

Only Jiang Yun saw him as a beautiful little bunny who’s capable of finishing three bowls of rice per meal and is a little brat that was born with divine power.

He is worried to death.

The child looks too much like his father, what should I do?

Is it still possible to strangle him to death now?

The child who’s capable of eating: Shivering

**

Upon learning that his favorite concubine may have fled to the Jiang Empire, Sui Heng was furious and once again joined forces with other kingdoms to attack the Jiang Empire.

The one who came to meet him head-on was the mysterious Crown Prince of the Jiang Empire, whose reputation was famous all over the world and who was known as the world’s first beauty.

Sui Heng sneered and ordered: Those who can take Jiang Yun’s head later will be rewarded with ten thousand gold and granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Houses.

The two sides armies were at war, and they saw a youth in a green shirt and jade belt appear gracefully in front of the formation, with a nine-point resemblance to the fleeing Wai Shi.

Sui Heng was confused and shouted, “Anyone who dares to shoot an arrow, Gu will take your dog’s life!”

The Sui Empire’s soldiers: ? <<less
