In the previous life, Wen Yu forcefully kissed Ji Anning, and she slapped him hard enough to make his mouth bleed.... more>>

“You… don’t f^cking believe that I really like you, do you?” He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb.

“Your so-called liking is nothing more than being attracted to my looks,” the impoverished student Ji Anning coldly replied.

Later, Ji Anning’s soul drifted and saw the true feelings of the wealthy man who had been pestering her all along. He stood on the rooftop, gazing at the dark night, and whispered, “I have avenged you.”

With a single thought, Ji Anning is reborn to her first year of college. At this time, she hasn’t died yet, and his hands hasn’t been stained with blood for her.

“Ji Anning, don’t even think about escaping from my grasp,” he released her lips and held her jaw viciously.

“What do you like about me? Isn’t it just being attracted to my looks?” Ji Anning smiled slightly, tiptoed, and kissed Wen Yu’s thin and sexy lips.

“He only knows how to quarrel with his older brother every day. He is arrogant and willful!”

“He looks good, but unfortunately, he is an idiot.”

“Isn’t he a useless person? Just serve him well.”

“It is a pity about that child of the Chen family.”

Everyone says "like father, like son", but Gu Fuyou has mediocre talent. So mediocre that when people see her, they mock her, wondering how Gu Wanpeng could have such a daughter.... more>>

She was so ordinary until she was accepted into the Xuan Miao Sect, with some suspecting that Gu Wanpeng pulled strings for her behind the scenes.

During a beast-taming class, the master was teaching disciples how to summon spirit beasts.

Someone, trying to mock her, chuckled, "I've heard your father's golden spirit bird can attain the nascent soul stage. Like father, like daughter, right? I bet the spirit beast you summon will be equally impressive."

She started the summoning formation, but there was no movement for a long time.

Everyone laughed, "She can't even summon the lowest-level young beast." This was beyond mediocrity; it was downright useless.

Suddenly, the formation emitted a blinding light, and fog covered the ground. Everyone gasped in surprise.

She summoned something, not a bird or beast, but a living person.

This person was the unparalleled genius of Xuan Miao Sect.

Even she didn't expect it, and the summoned person looked equally bewildered.

In a sudden impulse, she used her ring finger's blood to mark the person's forehead and named her 'Nanzhu Jun'.

The master intervened, shouting, "Stop, she's your senior sister!"

But it was too late; they had already formed a pact. <<less

Shen Miao, the Di daughter of a military family, was pure, quiet, gentle, and gracious. Because of her foolish love for Prince Ding, she forced her way into becoming his wife.... more>>

After six years of assisting her husband, she finally became the mother of the world: The Empress.

She had stayed with him during the fight for dominion over the empire and during the efforts to expand its territory. She even went so far as to put herself in danger and be taken hostage by a neighboring empire. In spite of this, when she returned to the Imperial Palace five years later, she no longer had a place in the Imperial Harem.

That beautiful woman he kept in his embrace gave her a bright, stunning smile and told her, “Older Sister, the country has settled down. It is time for you to step back as well.”

Her daughter died tragically and her son the Crown Prince was deposed. No one in her Shen family, who had been completely loyal to the Emperor, were spared. With arrival of a new reign, everything was overturned!

Shen Miao never thought that all of the perils they encountered as husband and wife, all of the assistance they gave each other mutually, were nothing but a joke in his eyes!

He told her, “Because you have been with this Emperor for more than two decades, this Emperor will allow you to keep an intact corpse. You should be grateful for this kindness.”

Beneath a meter of white silk, Shen Miao established a malicious oath: Once the day of reckoning arrives, every single one of you will die!

Once reborn, she returns to the year when she was only fourteen years old, a time when tragedy has not yet befallen, when her family still lived, and when she was still the pure, quiet, gentle, and gracious Di daughter of a military family.

Close relatives conceal evil intentions, her cousins are vicious and merciless, the new concubine is like tiger watching its prey and that scum wants the previous life’s events to be repeated?

Her family must be protected, the great enmity must be avenged, and the prize must include the empire’s imperial throne. In this lifetime, let us see who comes out on top!

But that Xie Family’s young marquis, that tyrannical and arrogant spear-wielding young man on horseback, stays stubbornly on her side and proudly declares, “It is merely toppling the Imperial Family. Do not forget, the world belongs to you, and you—you belong to me!”

–

The Thirteen Capitals of You Zhou: This belongs to you.

The Ding Yuan City in the North Desert: This belongs to you.

The Southern River of Yu Zhou, the Eastern Sea of Ding Xi, the Green Lakes of Lin’an, the Ancient City of Luo Yang: All of these belong to you.

“Alright, I want you.” <<less

This is an immersive fantasy tale where the female protagonist, through four instances of returning to the past, alters her own destiny and that of everyone around her.

A scheming female lead and an enigmatic male lead.

Part One:

Huang Rang finds herself trapped like a living corpse in a secret chamber.

She is eventually rescued by the esteemed Di Yiqiu of the Celestial Court.

Afterward, she washes away her troubles in a ritual bath, using five basins of water to cleanse her soul.

Part Two:

Di Yiqiu of the Celestial Court crafts an exquisitely beautiful “figurine” that appears remarkably feminine.

Surprisingly, this figure embodies the one who rejected Di YiQiu’s proposal and instead became the wife of the esteemed leader of the foremost Immortal Sect!

Could it be that Di Yiqiu of the Celestial Court, was so unable to overcome this obstacle that he became consumed by longing? Thus, in imitation of Mrs.Xie… created a counterfeit?!

Everyone: Astounded!

Part Three:

On a bustling street, Master of the Celestial Court abruptly halts his steps.

Instantly, everyone unsheathes their swords, ready to defend, only to witness him unexpectedly entering a rouge shop.

Rouge, cosmetics, and perfumes?!

Half an hour later, as they exit the rouge shop, carrying bottles and jars of starlit eyeshadow, golden rouge powder, peach blossom lip balm, peony flower jelly, and more, they are overcome by a sense of absurdity, pondering, “Who am I? Where am I?”

Part Four:

Huang Rang proceeds to Master Celestial Court’s chamber, taking a seat on his bed.

Master Celestial Court willingly squats down to remove her embroidered shoes. While unfastening the laces of her silk stockings, Huang Rang suddenly realizes this and strikes him in the chest with her foot.

Holding Huang Rang’s stockings, Master Celestial Court gazes at her face, then at her feet.

Engaging in such menial acts so naturally and effortlessly, as though he had performed them for her countless times before.

Could it be that he unknowingly assumes a submissive demeanor in her presence?

Astounding!!

Part Five:

It is the grand celebration of the Little Prince’s first month, attended by all the esteemed court officials.

Undeterred by formalities, Huang Rang sets her sights on indulging in the delectable treats before her.

As she takes a sip of tea, preparing to savor a pastry, someone nearby remarks, “The Eighty-Sixth Prince possesses an incredibly auspicious countenance, exuding irresistible charm.”

“Poof—” Huang Rang accidentally sprays the tea onto the ground.

…Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine that she would be someone who partakes in her own husband’s first month celebration. <<less

Alone, Pang Wan entered the Jiang Hu[1]. Her dream was to become a pure lady [2], to find her destined other half.... more>>

To fulfill this dream, everyday, she would dress elegantly in white and sit in the teahouse to admire handsome men and read her novels.

She heard, the demonesses [3] related to Jiang Hu were all, depending on their martial arts capabilities, divided into groups of three, six and nine.

Currently, the evil woman, who had the beauty of a blossoming flower, who had a heart like snakes and scorpions, who could kill at such a young age, was a once in a century’s peerless demoness.

She also heard that the demoness had came down the mountains to challenge the Wu Lin [4] champion Gu Xi Ju, to take the title of number one and to wreck havoc in the Jiang Hu.

Yet again she heard that all those who had decent martial arts skills vowed to get rid of this witch.

Aiyaya, it’s not good! Isn’t this demoness her? She did not kill the person! She did not start the fire!

This infamous name of the demoness is also not what she wanted!

Looks like Jiang Hu’s road is very curved, she'd better run!

[1] Literally translated as rivers and lakes. Refers to the pugilist world.

[2] Direct translation: A lady like a White Lotus, meaning pure.

[3] Not exactly the supernatural kind. It’s kind of a name for the women of Jiang Hu.
