Upon being reborn once more, he felt incapable of defeating his nemesis and was determined to escape, yearning for a life of freedom and happiness.... more>>

Yet, in this lifetime, his former arch-enemy became a loyal follower. Pushed by the people around him, he unwittingly embarked on the treacherous and glorious path to the throne, filled with thorns and honor. A millennium later, the song of the "Wise King" still echoed throughout the land.

As part of the imperial family, every move by Chu Yuan in this game of chess is made with apprehension, fearing that with a moment of inattentiveness, the whole match will be lost in a single move.... more>>

Ascending to the throne at eighteen, not half a year passes before civil strife erupts in Yun Nan. Though the thoughts of the old guard at the imperial court are not exactly identical, they are all waiting to see how the new emperor will put an end to this.

Unexpectedly, before this side could make a move, a few thousand miles away, the King of Xi Nan, Duan Bai Yue, had already personally commanded troops to attack in all directions; not half a year had passed when peace was restored.

Sparse moonlight shines into the palace; Chu Yuan stamped the wax seal himself, and had a secret letter sent urgently to Yun Nan 800 miles away — this time, what must we(1) give in exchange?

Brush marks passed through the back of the paper; it almost can be seen, when writing this line, how angry the young emperor was.

Duan Bai Yue spread out a piece of paper unhurriedly, replying with only one word.

You.

Note (1): Chu Yuan is using the royal ‘we’ here.

Indifferent younger Alpha × Teasing and seductive beauty Omega.

Yu Yang felt that the summer after graduating from high school was too long.

That omega, who claimed to like him and wanted to pursue him after just one meeting, left the country after spending a few months together. He only left behind a red envelope for further education and a simple note.

Four years later, Jin Wuqi returned to the country, standing in front of him with a smile. It was as if nothing had happened.

But Yu Yang didn’t want to repeat the same mistakes.

“You are a rose, the moon, the ocean. And you are also the wall filled with all the ironic past of my eighteen years of age.”

“The flowers you gave me have been stored away. They won’t grow beautifully again, having long withered.”

But… what? Mount Hua declined? What the hell are you talking about!?

It’s only natural to want to live if you’re going broke.

“Decline? Even though I’m here? Who would dare!”

Plum blossoms eventually fall.

But when the cold winter passes and spring comes, plum blossoms shall bloom again.

In college, Zhou Jingze and Xu Sui were very different from each other— their paths would never cross.... more>>

One was a free spirit, a moon surrounded by a myriad of stars. The other was a well-behaved and quiet girl, easy to be ignored.

As she finished her assignments one after another in the library, she had no intention to listen to matters regarding him and others. Yet, she had witnessed him changing girlfriends one after another.

At a party, Xu Sui was drunk and summoned up the courage to confess to him.

Zhou Jingze froze for a moment, then raised the corners of his lips and said casually: “I’m sorry, you are too well-behaved and quiet.”

They met again, countless times, whether it was intentionally or unintentionally. Xu Sui should have pushed down her thoughts and kept a distance from him.

Yet, he kept pressing, leaving her nowhere to hide. Finally, Xu Sui was against a wall: “Why me?” Zhou Jingze lowered his head and whispered to her: “There is no why; I used to be blind.” <<less

Everyone in the world knows that Demon Lord Hua Che was cruel and vicious. A single disagreement could cause him to slaughter someone’s entire family. ... more>>

What raised everyone’s hackles, even more, was how he had kidnapped the Immortal Lord Chu Binghuan, before shamelessly forcing him to become his Daoist companion!

Everyone cursed him, calling him shameless and disgusting, but he completely disregarded them. Hua Che only gently and cautiously tried currying favour with his crush, his white moonlight.

However, even until death, the only things he managed to obtain from Chu Binghuan were the words “shameless”, and “we’re irreconcilable enemies”—these kinds of hurtful phrases.

Luckily, after being reborn, Hua Che finally understood: that stolen melons were not sweet. During such an excellent era, wasn’t strolling with a cat or teasing a dog also fun?

First, he had to go to Chu Binghuan’s family to break their arranged marriage.

However, the lofty Chu Binghuan, who was originally devoted to cultivating and always disdained his wooing, suddenly had a huge personality change. No matter where Hua Che went, he would follow, and it was impossible to lose him!

Hua Che borrowed a certain person’s words and said, “Shameless!”

Chu Binghuan: “You and I have long had an engagement, and we’ve even slept in the same bed. This is a matter of course.”

Hua Che continued borrowing someone’s words: “We are irreconcilable enemies who cannot live under the same sky!”

Chu Binghuan: “Then the two of us should travel beyond the sky, becoming the perfect immortal couple.”

Hua Che: “……” <<less

It was nice to have the first meeting with such a young male lead…

“Hello, Bouser Youngae (Polite way for noble’s daughter)”

“Uwa!!” You were mistaken for a girl and you cried?

Fortunately, she managed to resolve the misunderstanding and become close friends. However, the male lead in his childhood is more shy and soft-hearted than I thought.

Eventually, she became attached to the male lead and decided to become a real friend.

However, due to the disturbance of the male lead father and the war broke out, we had to be separated for a long time, I thought I could barely meet him again and stay the same as before but….

And Mu Wan Qing’s whole family was used as a stepping stone and was destroyed on the road of exile.

Mu Wan Qing: I am so tired, let’s destroy it.

In the chaos of the house raiding scene, Mu Wan Qing hurriedly grabbed the marriage certificate with a swoosh.

During the breaking up of the marriage, Mu Wan Qing exchanged the marriage certificate for a mule cart and twenty taels of silver and started a long journey of exile.

In order to survive, she resorted to roasting pig trotters, making fried chicken, farming cotton, and breeding sheep.

Three years ago, a grievous news came from the distant stars, Crown Prince Ryann died so heroically on the frontier that even his remains couldn’t be found and returned home. ... more>>

The Empire has lost its handsome and dazzling prince, as well as one of the strongest new crystal human beings in this century.

It was said that the prince left a poor widow behind.　　

… At the funeral, the young widow had black hair and white skin. He lowered his head in silence as he held the coffin.

The royal family and high-level officials of the empire couldn’t help frowning greatly: The person who made His Highness fall in love during his lifetime was actually such a vulgar creature.

******

Jiang Jianming worked like a salted fish in the imperial military academy for three years, and he was unremarkable to the extreme.

In the graduation season, he calmly rolled up his baggage and stepped into the cruel distant star battlefield to collect the body of His Highness.

Everyone knows that disabled humans are weak, and they have no fighting ability at all. How many people either sneered or regretted, just waiting to wrap the corpse of this young man who had exceeded himself?

Until later, the pale young man scoured the scorched earth covered in blood, and when he raised his hand, the sound of gunfire broke through the long night. The Milky Way was reflected in the bottom of Jianming’s eyes, and the blade of the mecha was bathed in crystal and starlight.

Behind him, countless new human beings were convinced by this ‘proud son of heaven’, and they all called him “commander” in unison.

The alien creatures were frightened and trembling;
The rich and glorious dominion star-lord treat him as a guest;
The mu*derous space pirate love and hate him…

Jiang Jianming smiled slightly: “Don’t be so exaggerated, I’m just a weak and sickly disabled human being.”
Imperial people: “?”

So when the monarch came back from hell to the world, facing the legendary story that his lover had turned the distant star upside down for him, the monarch raised his eyebrows coldly: “Nonsense. The commander is just a weak and sickly disabled human being… Tell me, who encouraged him into a mecha today?”
Imperial people: “???”

Forget it, whatever! Since they already claimed that she was a temptress that wrecked the country, she shall overturn the world into complete chaos starting with her beguiling sister, her malicious stepmother, her cruel lover and her heartless family. Let her end the lives that Yama refused to end.

She was a pawn in her past life. In this life, however, the world was her chess board. With an alluring smile and a charming figure that enchanted the entire nation, the red-clothed woman wrecked chaos among the lands. She was a vengeful spirit from hell, determined to make those who wronged her pay in blood.

“I want those who owe me a life debt to hold their hearts out in front of me. I want those who looked down on me to only be able to admire me. I want Lord Zhong Zi to shiver when he sees me. I want to step on this splendid river and mountains!”

“You are a temptress and I am a thief.” His robe was as dark as the night and his gaze was as cold as the Northern Star. “A perfect match.”

Her red dress was akin to fire, but her heart was the coldest ice in the winter.

He was stoic in his black robe, yet he was willing to warm her frozen heart.

In this life, the elegant man seemed like a snowy bamboo grove with tall, chilly mountains, walking step by step towards her like an unstoppable force.

“Ruan Ruan, if you hate the world, then I shall conquer the lands with you.”

“What if I love the world?” She asked.

At the age of ten, Jiang Qi had black hair, shallow pupils, and a pale, delicate appearance. He often got injured, with blood flowing from his head. He was the son of a 'notorious' mu*derer in Chen Kong Alley, and people cursed him, saying that he had vile blood running in his veins. Except for Zhi Qi, no one paid him any attention.... more>>

Zhi Qi often cried while bandaging his wounds, her voice soft as she asked, "Why do you always get hurt? Does it hurt a lot?"

Jiang Qi smiled, the cold and rebellious boy appearing particularly obedient in front of her: "If you comfort me, it won't hurt anymore."

By the time he reached high school, he had become the most famous madman, cold and ruthless in all Lin Lan. Zhi Qi remembered Jiang Qi once saying that most of his life was lived like a dog. He would rather have everyone fear him than let anyone bully him.

Even though everyone feared him, Zhi Qi was not afraid.

Unfortunate people spend their entire lives healing from childhood, and Zhi Qi wanted to heal Jiang Qi with her own efforts. She would make a promise to him on the rooftop of the school, where he brought her to the top: "Jiang Qi, take care. When I reach the legal age, I can marry you."

The boy's response was a faint smile, his gaze clear and clean like the stars in the sky, filled with rare yearning for the future.

Zhi Qi didn't know that a simple promise saved Jiang Qi's life, pulling him out of hell.

Unfortunately, 'redemption' has an expiration date. When the clock strikes twelve for Cinderella, he remains the sick dog with nothing.

The unsettled remnants in the martial world are still filled with danger, and Duan Ling begins to feel that perhaps he never truly understood Lu Xiuwen.

In order to deal with the devil, the Justice Sect offered the waste to the Devil Clan leader, Yin Xuezhuo.

After some time passed, the Justice Sect and the Devil Clan were surprised to find that no matter where the Devil Clan leader went, there was always a small young girl hanging on his body. The Devil Clan leader was carefully feeding her while he carried her. However, he was still disgusted by her.

Ji Yan: “Yin Xuezhuo, I’m hungry.”

Ji Yan: “Yin Xuezhuo, I’m sleepy. I have to sleep for four hours a day.”

Ji Yan: “Yin Xuezhuo, I think I caught a cold because I was blown by the cold wind last night.”

Ji Yan: “Yin Xuezhuo…”

Yin Xuezhuo: “Shut up!”

【Devil Clan Leader】

As the King of the Devil Realm, Yin Xuezhuo was temperamental and crazy. He was fond of killing people. People would be terror-stricken whenever they heard his name.

But he never imagined that he would be controlled by a mysterious force that forced him to always be within ten steps distance of a young mortal girl.

All her pain, injuries, and sickness would be shared with him.

If she died, he would die.

On the way to an auction, Shao Xian died in a car accident.

Before he died, he thought, Fu Baizhou must be very pleased without him being present to mix things up.
