In a time long ago, there was an era where beautiful goddesses fiercely competed for the throne of world rulers. At some point, the goddesses with fangs, disguising themselves with the facade of love, began to peacefully guard the human world.

A young boy named Soujou Shouma, encounters and falls in love with a goddess who secretly came to the human world. After making a promise to meet again someday, he works hard to grow and become a man worthy of the goddess. As a schoolboy, he is appointed as the president of a company.

However, in the modern era, abnormalities occur in the divine realm of the goddesses, known as the Heavenly Realm. The uncontrollable goddesses engage in violent battles reminiscent of ancient times to decide the next creator god – the ruler of the Heavenly Realm. This conflict’s flames even spread to the human world.

Upon learning of this, Shouma, in order to fulfill his first love and protect world peace, decides to utilize his company in a special way for the goddesses. He teams up with one of the strongest goddesses, Elvina, who shares his interests, and as the company’s president, joins the battles! <<less

What was even more shocking than how Li Wei won the world’s highest prize in theoretical physics at such a young age of 35 years old was the fact that he was found dead at home due to committing su*cide the day before the award ceremony.... more>>

In his letter to his student Jackie, he wrote: I have only been doing one thing crazily all these years, and physics is all I have. On the day it ends, the darkness will completely engulf me.

–Later, Li Wei, who became a leader in the world of physics again, said in an interview with global media, “I survived because of two essential things in my life: physics and her. Physics gave me the ability to think rationally in the darkness, and she gave me my light.” <<less

Su Guifei¹ was favored and envied by countless imperial consorts in the harem. Chen Wang² grew up with His Majesty showing favoritism to him. However, anyone, who was more or less educated, would sigh with regret and say that this pair of mother and son were sure to come to a bad end in the future.

Ming Jiuzhu, who was about to marry Chen Wang: Really? I don’t believe it.

Chen Wang in Jiuzhu’s eyes: a beautiful and kindhearted little fairy boy vs. Chen Wang in the eyes of others: His Majesty and his favored consort’s hedonistic son.

Jiuzhu often wondered why people always gazed at her and Chen Wang with a ‘you are doomed one way or another’ look. Could this be the ugly side of jealousy?

Aiyah, the hearts of these people are so dirty.

In the feng shui community it was said that Lin Zhushui was omniscient, but now it seemed his only miscalculation was his marriage to Zhou Jiayu.

Zhou Jiayu: Before I was reborn, I always thought that I would be a staunch socialist successor, until I became a swindler and met a fortune-telling big shot.

“My dearest husband, come follow me back to the mountains.”

Ji Lang was amused. Amongst the ghosts he had met, this was the first time he met one who came to groomnap.

“In that case, shouldn’t we first have our nuptial night?” said Ji Lang. Wu Miaomiao tilted her head. She felt it was logical and headed home with her husband.

Ji Lang was the reincarnation of Ephialtes. It was said that if he was to be fully awakened, he would possess the powers to drown the entire human population in their nightmares. He could enter into anybody’s dreams, probe into their dreamscapes and pry into their deepest secrets.

Because of this ability, for these 20 years, Ji Lang could not have a good night's sleep. He was forced to sink into all sorts of nightmares till the day he met the girl from the Witch Clan. On the first day he met her, he slept on her bed.

Ji Lang: “You said that you are my wife? (I finally can have a proper sleep (#^.^#))”

The people from the metaphysical world feared the power of Ephialtes. They were constantly wary of him fully awakening his powers and destroying the world afterwards. They planted spies near him to put an end to him upon signs of his awakening.

Wu Miaomiao: “I heard that you people want to bully my dearest husband, I will curse you all oh~~~”

Ji Lang: (#^.^#)

Subjected to live the life of a siren, Aria had experienced, seen, and heard many horrific things. Broken beyond repair, Aria resigned herself to death, when suddenly…

The Grand Duke, Lloyd Cardence Valentine, arrived and whispered, “Should I kill everyone here?”

“If you need me, just call me. Your song will always reach me, wherever you are.”

In the end, Aria called the devil, bringing death to all those present, along with herself.

“Let’s fall down to hell together.”

And with that, Aria breathed her last and died… only to return to her 10-year-old self.

Now that she had a second chance at her life, Aria was determined to change her fate, as well as the cruel fate of her saviour, Grand Duke Valentine.

And so… Aria proposed to him with a marriage contract.

She sold her soul to the devil and vowed to protect him.

[Marry me.] Aria extended her hand and gave him the contract. [Let’s get divorced in 10 years…]

During highschool, the second most courageous thing Zhou Anran ever did was, on a day when Chen Luobai looked upset, she secretly placed two lemonsoda candies on his desk.... more>>

At that time, he was the proud son of heaven sought after by everyone.

She was an ordinary classmate whose name he couldn’t even remember.

Later, they met again in university. Zhou Anran who had to fight for her life to even get into the top university, was still as inconspicuous as ever in a sea of academic prodigies, while Chen Luobai instantly became the talk of the town the moment he entered the school.

Zhou Anran thought she would never cross paths with him again, but one time in an elective course, Chen Luobai placed two pieces of the very same lemonsoda candies on her desk.

“Have you ever tried this candy?”He seemed to ask casually.

Zhou Anran’s heart jumped, she lowered her head, not answering the question.

Chen Luobai added, “I came to know this candy because someone in high school secretly put two pieces on my desk before. While others stuffed love letters into my desk, that person just put two candies on my desk, but—”

He paused.

Zhou Anran couldn’t help but to tilt her head to look at him, at once, her gaze was met with the boy’s smiling focused eyes that were staring back at her, as if he was trying to convey something.

“It’s pretty sweet.”

The same words he would later say on the night he kissed her for the first time.

He thought his life would come to an end, but the trading device unexpectedly transported him to a primitive world, where a solitary snake-person saved him and took him into a cave.... more>>

The little snake-person lacked sharp claws and tough scales but possessed a kind heart and nimble hands. Even when angry, they were soft and lovable.

A year later, the little snake-person, holding their tiny horns on their head, ran over in tears and asked, “Um, Ye Zi, am I sick and going to die?” QAQ

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”.

No matter how you look at it--these level-up quests and these system windows…they were similar to a game’s user interface from his previous life.

Ye Si, the campus's prince charming whom everyone admires.

No matter who looks at him, they have to say he's uniquely handsome, elegant like a pine.

Yu Guang is no exception.

On the hundredth day of peeping, Ye Si finally broke up with his annoying girlfriend (fake girlfriend).

Yu Guang coldly watched them walk away from each other, secretly pleased.

Messing up his neat hairstyle, fixing his innocent expression, he bumped into Ye Si's arms with his backpack.

"Ah! Senior, I'm sorry!"

Ye Si's hand was cold, but it burned into his heart through his shirt.

He deliberately approached, probed—

While Yu Guang captured the senior's heart with his innocence and obedience, harassing messages from unknown numbers became more rampant.

?: Why aren't the buttons on your shirt fastened? Are you trying to seduce me?

?: Baby, your earlobes are so pretty, want me to pierce them for you?

Yu Guang was at a loss.

He wanted to find this fellow hiding in the dark corner, but unintentionally stumbled upon some different secrets.

The senior's chilly thin lips pressed against his sensitive neck, blowing air provocatively.

Ye Si called him, "A little fox who throws itself into the net."

"I'm giving you my entire soul, along with its quirks, petty temper, capriciousness, and eighteen hundred types of bad habits."

"It's truly detestable, with only one good point—it loves you."

In a twist of fate, a simple glance at a popular CP turned the life of a certain person upside down. Overnight, he was transmigrated back in time, becoming the male protagonist, Nie Qingzhou, of the very same CP ship that his cousin was obsessed with.... more>>

Imagine the shock of this office worker, known for his gentle demeanor and refined nature, when he suddenly found himself trapped in the body of a troublesome sixteen-year-old boy. It was a truly mind-boggling transformation!

As “Nie Qingzhou” observed the other half of the equation, the female lead in the CP—Xia Yi, a gifted musician still navigating the halls of high school, her talents yet to be recognized—a wave of contemplation washed over him. So does this mean that the CP my cousin obsesses over is, in fact, my own destined romantic pairing?

Deep in Xia Yi’s memories lies a vivid scene from a summer evening in high school. When the sun was setting, casting a warm glow, a young boy on a bicycle appeared at the end of the road. With his school uniform billowing in the wind, he seemed to dance amidst the golden-red hues of twilight.

A gust of wind swept up a flier with the message, “When God says ‘Let There Be Light,’” twirling and ascending towards the sky.

In that moment, Nie Qingzhou cried out her name, his heart propelling him towards her as if he were a divine oracle delivering a message.

Countless times before, and countless times in the future, driven by an irresistible force he would always be running towards her like this.

The next day, upon waking up, he realized that the “dream” was real!
It turns out that the young man beside him is his husband, using modern terminology…

[Serious Version Synopsis]:
Transported to a world as a destitute and foolish poor scholar, Lin Ze faces a fierce mother, a cunning younger brother, and a helpless original body that can’t shoulder responsibilities or lift a finger. Now, in order to please his “former lover turned future younger sibling,” he has to sell off his hardworking and capable husband.

This infuriates Lin Ze, a single dog from the modern era.

In his previous life, he never found a suitable bride until his death, and now this original body wants to sell off his wife? And the wife is an obedient, sensible, hardworking, and exceptionally beautiful young man who is perfect in his eyes.

To sell off such a good wife, whom the original host doesn’t touch or like, is an earthly tragedy that he absolutely cannot tolerate!

From then on, the sour scholar from Heba Village transforms into a knowledgeable, money-making expert who dotes on his wife, while also being an ambitious rural man.

Villager A (in shock): He’s here again! That Lin guy from the Lin family is walking around with his wife and carrying his child. Everyone, quickly come up with words of praise for his wife and son, or we’ll be beaten again!
Villagers (whimpering): Oh no, we have to come up with a different compliment every day, without repeating, racking our brains to bully people…
Villager B (in awe): It’s over, it’s over! That Lin guy passed the imperial examination and has come back to our county to become the county magistrate. Everyone, quickly line up and clap your hands to welcome him, or else we’ll be beheaded!

The first time Sheng Renxing met Xing Ye, the other had dragged him into a skirmish.

That fight had been exhilarating.

The second time they met, Xing Ye had just finished a round in the ring. He had stood in the centre, entire body covered in wounds, his downcast gaze bypassing everyone else to land on Sheng Renxing.

Sheng Renxing had taken him home.

The third time, Sheng Renxing had arrived at his new school with a head full of red hair. He was met with the sight of Xing Ye in the classroom, all properly-decked out in his school uniform.

Their grades: Sheng Renxing scored 148 points while Xing Ye scored 18 points.

Later:

Blood continued to drip down Xing Ye’s brow ridge. He pressed Sheng Renxing against the door with one hand, his teeth sunk into the boxing glove of his other hand. There was a vicious light in his eyes— “Stay out of my business. Keep your sympathy. The people here aren’t your friends—they’re all madmen or human scum.”

Sheng Renxing: “…Can the human scum in front of me let go?”

He was the weeds set ablaze amidst the night sky. Even after exhausting everything he had, all that could be seen by passing strangers were flashes of embers and ashes.

In the prosperous Jianglong City, women and children disappear every day, and strange clouds gather over the city.... more>>

A puzzle piece was sent to the police station, and the clues pointed to the recent frequent disappearances.

The police discovered that this was not an ordinary puzzle piece but human skin, and it came from the mu*derer of another case.

Is it the mu*derer? Or the victim? Who is the perpetrator?

Yu Jing, the leader of the Serious Crime Team Two, grew up among gangsters and made jokes on weekdays, but when it comes to serious matters, he immediately becomes serious and leads his men straight to the scene. He discovered that the clues in the case were very similar to an old case from fifteen years ago.

This case was inextricably linked to the major child abduction case fifteen years ago.

In order to solve the case faster, the city bureau called in a helping hand. They heard it was the forensic section chief from the city bureau next door, “Lu Yidao”*, who claims to be able to make the dead speak.

Accidentally, the two met at the crime scene, and both thought the other was a gangster. After a few rounds of fighting, both of them were impressed.

Even if the misunderstanding was resolved, the relationship was still forged.

The appearance of mysterious puzzle pieces actually formed a mysterious sun totem.

Although the two of them started fighting each other as soon as they met, in the face of the sudden case, they made a tacit agreement to temporarily reconcile and joined hands to face the sea of blood and avenge countless dead souls.

“The sun means rebirth and burns everything. I am willing to use my mortal body to withstand all kinds of difficulties and dangers. Even if it turns into embers, I will have no regrets.”

“Even if the night is endless, as long as faith never goes out, I will be the fireworks that light up the way forward.”
