She was reincarnated in a cold wasteland where romance didn’t exist.... more>>

It was only a minor role whose name was not even mentioned, so she simply assumed that she would live a life that was far from the original.

On the night of a full moon, a male master had come to visit her, possessing a title that didn’t exist in the drama.

"The Marquis had asked for money in exchange for you.”

It took her a while to remember that he was a cold-blooded man who would draw his sword first and ask questions later.

Cherryl realized that her father was trying to sell her.

“I don’t think it’s a bad offer.”

The problem is that he was a savage monster who wasn’t capable of mercy.

Yet, if she let him go, she would have to be married to an aging, bald Earl.

Cherryl thought about running away at night but instead, she ended up leaving with Cade to the North.

“Do you think it’s all a coincidence?”

On the first night of the wedding, Cade kissed her wet cheeks tenderly and revealed his thoughts.

“Would you believe if I said I was living like a dog for this night?”

“Your—Your Grace.”

The man's golden eyes glittered with insidious longing. <<less

This is the story of Phoenix Wisdom King and a Grand Demon just awakened from Hell.... more>>

***

On an ancient battlefield, two armies stood in a stalemate. On one side were the Arhats, Gods, and Buddhas from the Heavenly Realm. On the other side were the monsters and demons from the Blood Sea of the Hell Realm.

The personification of that Grand Demon leaped forward, holding a long sword across his chest. He flew across the battlefield, brazenly cutting in half eleven Phoenix Bone Arrows, each of which was enough to destroy the world.

Then, he arrived in front of Phoenix Wisdom King, standing high above the masses:

“Your Highness, please don’t move—”

“I didn’t come to wage war. I came to propose to you.”

Phoenix was the Buddha’s inescapable Tribulation for thirty-thousand years, whereas Zhou Hui was Phoenix’s redemption that could free him from the fate of his eternal life.

After hundreds of thousands of years of endless light and shadow, this handsome yet devilish man finally emerged from Hell—

To bring Phoenix Wisdom King away from the transcendent Buddhist Kingdom and the boundless Lotus Sea.

“Let me follow you to that world. For you, I’ll be invincible forever—”

You’re my shore after swimming across hundreds of miles of water. You’re my destination after traveling through thousands of miles of land. <<less

Until she caused him to go blind.

The man grew cranky and unruly, and shut himself away in a remote villa. The people called it the Mansion of the Beast. Late at night, she knocked on the mansion's door.

*

"Do you know who broke my eyes?"
"......."
"A maid just like you."

A hand cupped her cheek, then passed over her chin and grabbed her neck. She coughed raggedly as her breathing was squeezed out.

"Do you even know how she broke them?"
"......."
"She poured poison into my eyes."

The pressure pressing down on her hand was heavy.

This is the weight of my sins. Even if I spend the rest of my life helping him, I will never be able to erase this karma.

"Meeting you is the greatest luck of my life," the man whispered.

"Next time, we'll both walk this path with our eyes open."

Next time....... She pursed her lips and tried to pronounce it.

For her, who had lived confined in the castle for 25 years, it was such an enticing offer.

A century and more ago, China was embroiled in turmoil and instability. Opium usage was rampant in the country. Foreign powers carved up China’s land into foreign-controlled concessions and leased out lands. The Qing Dynasty was on its last legs. Military warlords and cliques fought for power. People rose up to fight for change, some wanting reform and to institute a constitutional monarchy, some wanting a revolution, to completely change the political situation.... more>>

This is the backdrop of our story, which opens in the year 1911. It is truly a historical romance, with many references to historical events and people.

Shen Xi is a wanted criminal of the Qing Dynasty, not for any crime that she committed but because her father was charged as a reformist and punishment was doled out to the entire clan. She has been living hidden away in the dirtiest of places, until one day something happens and she is rescued by the Third Master of the House of Fu, Fu Tongwen. Third Master Fu, the romantic, suave young master known for his love of women and frivolity, whose wealth is countless, sends her abroad to study and guarantees the safety and well-being of the rest of her life. She thinks that the ties between the two of them are merely the letters she regularly posts to him and the replies he sends back, but one day he appears in the parlour of her townhouse in New York. During this time, her interaction with him increases until one day she abruptly makes the decision to return to China. In her travels and interaction with him, she learns that this man who on the outside appears to be (by a modern-day terms), a playboy in reality holds a heart for his country and its people and carries a longing to bring change—to see a China restored to splendour and prosperity.

The Third Master Fu of her first encounter with him was a rich, frivolous young lord who would reserve half of an entire venue for only the purpose of increasing the popularity of the entertainer he was fond of, a man who liked to sit with one ankle resting on the thigh of the other leg, his head tilted to the side to quietly converse with the wealthy young masters around him. In the glow of lamplight, the side view of his face exuded an air of dissolute suaveness. It was only later that she saw the real him: In the dim illumination, what he sat upon were actually piles of white skeletons and what he guarded were the vast, magnificent lands of the nation. <<less

Ji Pianpian vows to be shameless and kill him thousands of times: “Lie flat and wait.”

Du-shen: “Okay, baby.”

After a while, Ji Pianpian received a video request——

The man leaned against the head of the bed, his black shirt was fully unbuttoned, his tie loosened to his collarbone. Then the hem of his clothes stretched along his strong chest to his abdominal muscles, while the belt locks his pants and his mermaid line is sexy and ambiguous.

In the video, Shen Du’s brows and eyes are lazy, and his accent is seductive: “I’m lying flat, waiting for you.”

Ji Pianpian covered her eyes, her voice trembling: “…who, who made you lie on the bed!”

Later, when he learned that his little girlfriend had just turned eighteen, Shen Du’s black eyelashes drooped: “You are still young, when you grow up you should resent me as an old man.”

Ji Pianpian: “How old should I be?”

Shen Du said slowly: “In another five years.”

Ji Pianpian wanted to say something but stopped, holding out a sentence: “…It doesn’t have to be five years.”
