After becoming the stand-in for the ‘White Moonlight’, the real ‘White Moonlight’ has returned.... more>>

Qiao Wan has always understood that she is the substitute for Mu Xiaoxiao, the younger martial sister of the Kunshan Sect, whom they found as a replacement after Mu Xiaoxiao passed away.

One-sentence: <<less

Lowly shepherdess. Illegitimate daughter. Disgraceful duchess.
Although she had married her beloved Duke Izar, Freesia lived as though she was trapped at the bottom of a bleak, hapless abyss.
Her family took complete advantage of her, and the people of the duchy hated her for being a stain on the household’s honor.... more>>

And then there was her husband, Izar.
Even after she had suffered a miscarriage, he remained cold.

"To be born to parents like us—happiness would forever elude that child."

At Freesia’s funeral, he had shed not a single tear.
But Freesia wished for one last thing.

Please, cry for me.
Shed even a single tear.
Dearly, I hope that your feelings might change.

Even if it means living for just one more year, that’s fine.
Once that time has passed, then.
Come and cry at my funeral.

*

For the first time, Freesia dared to glare at this man.
The dreadful document in her hand fell to the ground.

"How could you do something so cruel to me, to treat me worse than an animal!"

She was mistaken.
She thought, finally, this man held affection for her. That he trusted her.
That, perhaps... it could even be love.
But it was nothing like that. He deceived her.

"You ruined my life."

There were only five months left before her demise. <<less

In a marriage devoid of affection, there existed no room for sorrow.
Yet, with his demise taking everything away from me, I just had to return the favor.... more>>

I lived believing that patience was the answer for a long time, but I won't endure it anymore.
Retribution shall be meted out upon the two houses that, as they were blinded by greed, had abandoned their children
And they shall be bestowed with everything they rightfully deserve.

'If it's not in my hands, I'll take it by force.'

In this life, there came the resolve to metamorphose into a marauder of vengeance.

***

All was but a fragment within the mosaic of a meticulously crafted design.
Love, within this intricate orchestration, was deemed an unnecessary sentiment.
However...

"I’m going crazy. I just want so, so much to wrap my arms around your waist, pull you to me and give you a kiss right now.”
"..."
"I concede, Cecilia. You won."
"..."
"Therefore, as the victor, lay claim to the spoils of war."

Breathless gasps. A cadence of coarse utterances. Cheeks ablaze with a crimson hue.
Nothing was the same from the past.

'Why are you acting like this now, when you were so indifferent to me before?' <<less

On that day, he became the captain of a ghost ship.

On that day, he stepped through the thick fog and confronted a completely subverted and fragmented world— the old order had vanished, strange phenomena dominated the endless seas beyond civilized society, and isolated island city-states and fleets of ships challenged the sea that had become the last ember of lights for the civilized world. All of this while the shadows of the old days were still stirring in the deep sea, waiting to devour this world that was about to die.

But for the new captain of the ghost ship Vanished, there was only one question he had to consider first — Who knows how to steer this ship?! <<less

Experience price… can be free of charge.”

Lu Liran, the former deputy captain of the first federal mobile team, disappeared in a great war, and his life and death are unknown.... more>>

Seriously injured in the war, lingering on his last breath and penniless, Lu Liran was luckily bound by the survival system.

Under the tasks issued by the system——

The Giant at thirty degrees below zero, conquer the Arlok Glacier;

In the No Man’s land under the black wind and sand, travel deep into the oasis in the hinterland of Salba Desert;

The Island in the Sky under the blue sky, the challenge of surviving on an uninhabited island;

The Blue Hole in the Endless Abyss, exploring deep sea wrecks and lost ancient cities;

The Muddy Lands, the Forest of White Bones, gathering specialties of the Ghost Forest Swamp;

The Lord of Fire, the giant dragon lurking on the ground……

[System additional rewards: Turn on the live broadcast function and automatically access the interstellar live broadcast platform]
Therefore, in the Desolate Star that hates the federal army the most, a man with a disfigured face and mysterious identity quietly appeared in the top ten dangerous uninhabited regions of Desolate Star. In exchange for rich bounty rewards by hunting rare and exotic beasts that ordinary people can’t hunt, and the live broadcast of wilderness survival, he also started rapidly sweeping the entire planet.

“Ah, the anchor looks so scary, no one dares to marry such an Alpha no matter how powerful he is!”

“??? Brother Lu, I can! Marry me! The sense of security is at max level, like!”

“The anchor is really a god. This is the first time I’ve seen someone at the top of this year’s list of Desolate Star’s Most Attractive Alpha + Least Wanted to Marry Alpha at the same time…”

[Ding——Basic rewards for missions: The progress of the appearance restoration is full, and the appearance restoration has been completed]
During a live broadcast, a heavy rain washed away the scar on Lu Liran’s face.

The whole live room is boiling!!!

“Marry me, marry me! Brother, marry me!”

After the live broadcast was closed, another man, so handsome that people subconsciously held their breath, appeared. He surrounded Lu Liran’s body and whispered: “You’ve been missing for so many years with my cub, when are you going to give me a name?”

Lu Liran: “…”

Yes, this is still an old-fashioned story of O pretending to be A and running away with joy.

…

His Excellency, the First Commander of the Federal Army, disappeared suddenly in the peaceful post-war era. Until one day, everyone noticed that he appeared in a live broadcast room, happily pretending to be a s*upid human-shaped pendant, and unscrupulously pestering a male anchor with a terrifying face.

“Official announcement, this is the commander’s wife.” His Excellency, the Commander-in-Chief of the Federation, said so.

The live broadcast room is boiling again!!! <<less

[Infinite Regression Genre]... more>>

There is such a genre. In any novel, regression is a cheat key!

What if it's the ability of [Infinite Regression]?

No need to worry about any bad endings, after all, the protagonist will eventually reach a happy ending.

"Cheat key my foot."

I tried it myself and it wasn't so.

The success myths of regressors depicted in various novels are actually fake news…!
They were merely vile propaganda…!

"This run is doomed too."

This is not a story of success. It's a tale of a failure's aftermath.

At 5:25 in the afternoon, he will open the door and pretend to have just gotten off a long day at work, saying: “A-Zhen, I worked very hard today. I missed you so much.”

I have to run away, because not only is “he” pretending to be my husband, but “he”…..isn’t a human being!

Shi Yichao: "Clear the mobs and stack skeletons! I shall bring the undead calamity upon the world!"

And so, Purin died.

【...Maybe you didn't hear me clearly, my host. I said court her, not cull her. Our next target–】

Shu Yichao: "Build the hive and spam the worms. My hive mind shall devour the world! Who can compete with me?"

Bei Yutang replied: “Destroyed.”

The system asked, “What about the Boss?”

Bei Yutang ran away immediately!

Whether abuse of scumbags or white lotus, she, Bei Yu Tang is very skilled.

But regarding abusing the boss, forget it!

The fighting power of the Big BOSS is too strong, it’s better for little Xiami* like her to go.

She didn’t want to be killed by the boss, instead of killing the boss.

A certain Big BOSS: “Wife, who do you want to destroy, let your husband do it.”

Bei Yu Tang excitedly replied: “System monarch.”

The ancient saying goes: Most generals come from Guan Xi, while ministers come from Guan Dong.... more>>

He Yan was born to be a Star General.

She was merely a stepping stone for her family, and was used as her brother’s substitute. She had fought on the battlefields for years, bringing peace to Xi Qiang, stopping the barbarians… When her brother recovered, she gave up her position with great laurels brought to her name. Without further ado, she was married off.

During her married life, she was forsaken by her husband and even suffered from a strange illness, thereby losing her eyesight…

The young and pretty concubine stood in front of her, speaking softly: “The decoction you drank that made you blind was instructed by the elders of your family. As you know, the dead tell no tales. If you lived, you would be your family’s greatest threat!”

A great general of her time, the heroine of the country, died pitifully in the hands of those shameless women, who only knew to fight for a man’s favor… How absurd!

When she opened her eyes again, she had become the drill fields officer’s daughter, who was weak and arrogant, innocent and naive.

They had stolen her glory, taken her life, lead her army and betrayed her feelings! She had crawled back from the depths of hell and would take back everything she had lost, one by one.

Bring the world under her feet and with her beauty and nobility, overwhelm the nine prefectures!

But would she get out easily once she entered the barracks?

Hardly did she begin her adventures when He Yan met her arch-enemy of the previous lifetime, that young hunk whose “enemies would retreat as soon as he attacked”.

The chic and cool female general versus the handsome and ravenous young man. Two efficient generals team up to conquer the world! <<less

Louis Valentine, the villainous noble. He has a certain purpose.... more>>

That purpose is to enter eternal slumber.

Louis has experienced countless reincarnations. The causes of death vary, but one thing remains constant – whenever he dies, he returns to a predetermined age.

Having lived through numerous lives of living and dying, Louis eventually adopted a new purpose: to live not for life itself, but for death.

In his previous life, he casually attempted su*cide.

Without much hope, as expected, Louis once again experiences the cycle of reincarnation.

"If su*cide won't work either, then I'll just do things I enjoy and die."

Deciding to do only what he enjoys before dying, Louis finds that this new life is different from all his previous ones for some reason.

Even the personifications of death, including his fiancée, inexplicably pay attention to Louis.

"Isn't this strange?"

This is the story of a boy who deviates from his previous narrative by committing su*cide, and the people who start to care about Louis, as he seeks to attain eternal death. <<less
