While playing the online game "Convergence of Ten Thousand Realms," Yan Luoyue suddenly found herself transmigrated into the body of a newly hatched baby turtle in the cultivation world of the turtle clan.... more>>

Fortunately, her system account had come along with her, and the skill books and equipment in her inventory were still intact.

However, there was a bug in her account information.

Year after year, Yan Luoyue watched as her health bar grew infinitely longer.

Every year on her birthday, an extra zero was added to her health bar.

In the first year after her transmigration, Yan Luoyue used all her divine artifacts to ensure her fragile self wouldn’t choke to death on her own saliva.

By the tenth year, she removed all her equipment and casually strolled through the forbidden grounds of her clan.

The sealed demons and monsters surrounded her, hacking away for three days and three nights, until they collapsed, foaming at the mouth.

A hundred years after her transmigration, Yan Luoyue looked up and realized her health bar now spanned the entire continent.

Someone once asked Demon Venerable Yan, "Does being invincible make you lonely?"

Yan Luoyue kindly replied, "Silly child, how could being invincible be lonely? It’s absolutely amazing."

Synopsis Two:

Wu Manshuang was covered in poison, the last of the Teng Serpent (celestial serpent) lineage in the world.

The closer anyone got to him, the deeper the poison would affect them.

So, Wu Manshuang wrapped himself up tightly. He hid in a pitch-black cloak, avoiding all living beings. He thought his life would pass in solitude, until—

A young girl’s slender, warm hand touched his cheek.

"Your health-draining debuff is pretty strong, huh?"

Wu Manshuang quickly pushed her hand away. "Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

"Relax," the girl said with a carefree smile. "I’m way stronger than you."

From then on, the little serpent gently coiled around the turtle’s shell.

And then…

The world gained the divine beast Xuanwu.

"A Fox Cultivation Partner? – On the Path to Immortality"... more>>

Deep in the mist-wrapped peaks of Spirit Mountain, the aloof cultivator Yun Zhao found a wounded silver fox.

Its eyes gleamed like moonlight, its fur was white as snow, and it always nuzzled against his fingertips.

Yun Zhao’s heart softened, and he took it back to his cave.

But he soon realized—

This little fox stole his spirit fruits at midnight, burrowed into his lap during meditation, and after transforming… it turned out to be a smiling, enchanting youth?

"Since the Immortal Lord saved me… why not take me as your cultivation partner?" The fox boy’s tail swayed lightly, his tone sweet yet sly.

Wang Yanqing’s father died in battle. She was adopted as an orphan by the Marquis of Zhenyuan. She loved Fu Tingzhou for ten years and would go through fire and water for him. However, this woman carried a family history full of scars, and ultimately, Fu Tingzhou sought another woman to marry. ... more>>

Ten years of effort turned out to be a joke.

Fu Tingzhou accompanied his fiancé to buy incense outside the city, completely forgetting that it was Wang Yanqing’s birthday. On the road, they encountered an ambush and Fu Tingzhou became busy protecting his fiancée. While defending Fu Tingzhou, Wang Yanqing lost her footing and fell off a cliff.

After waking up, she lost her memory and only knew that she had to repay her gratitude. The man sitting in front of her bed smiled and reached out to touch her head: “Qing Qing, have you forgotten? You were plotted against by the Fu family and lost your memory. We’ve always known each other; we were childhood sweethearts."

She didn’t know that the man sitting in front of her was the renowned commander of the Imperial Guards, Lu Heng. He was also an old enemy of the Fu family. He was the main culprit of the assassination attempt on Fu Tingzhou that resulted in Wang Yanqing falling off the cliff.

After Wang Yanqing was taken, Fu Tingzhou went crazy. Fu Tingzhou rushed to the Imperial Guards desperately. Just as he asked Wang Yanqing to leave with him, he was stabbed by her sword.

Fu Tingzhou looked up in shock to see her acting coquettishly with another person: “Older brother, I caught the Fu traitor.”

Wang Yanqing didn’t know that after she walked away, Lu Heng drove the sword deeper and smiled at Fu Tingzhou: “Thanks for taking care of Qing Qing for the past few years. What a pity. Now she is mine.” <<less

In the palace struggle novel, the ultimate boss, Xie Bufeng, has been void of emotional attachment since childhood, being seen as a monster. The previous emperor, afflicted with a terminal illness, used him for medical experiments, casting him into battle to perish. Unexpectedly, Xie Bufeng climbed out of the pile of corpses, returning to the capital with three thousand cavalry to establish himself as the emperor.... more>>

As soon as medical student Wen Qingci exclaimed "awesome!" he found himself transmigrated into the role of a physician experimenting on Xie Bufeng's body with the notorious black lotus elixir. His eyebrows are dotted with cinnabar and skin as smooth as jade, and being deeply devoted to medicine without distinguishing between good and evil, he was named the "demonic-faced immortal".

In the end, he was torn apart and fed to vultures.

By the time Wen Qingci arrived, Xie Bufeng had already been captured by the medical department and understood his fate. He was sickly and had a fierce glare, like a wolf cub trapped in a cage, eager to crush Wen Qingci's throat at any moment. Under the watchful eye of the emperor's confidant, Wen Qingci flicked his wrist and shoved a piece of candy into Xie Bufeng's mouth:

"This is a poison that corrodes the intestines. If Your Highness cooperates, an antidote can be obtained once a month."

Under the surveillance of the emperor and with the ending written in the book, Wen Qingci pretended to conduct serious experiments while secretly trying to detoxify him. He risked his life to save Xie Bufeng from the brink of death. Madness ensued until the day of the palace coup, when Wen Qingci took an arrow meant for Xie Bufeng's heart.

The new emperor, speaking slowly between his teeth, forced out the words: "After your death, there will be no antidote, and I will have no choice but to accompany you." Wen Qingci smiled, coughing up a mouthful of blood and shaking his head gently:

"...What I feed to Your Highness is always honey made...by myself..."

A teardrop mixed with blood fell from the corner of Xie Bufeng's eye.

Ten miles of red wedding decorations welcomed Xie Bufeng's thin coffin into the palace gates. Xie Bufeng, full of resentment towards gods and ghosts, knelt in front of the temple, offering his blood as sacrifice to the heavens, praying to see him once again. Like a madman.

Outside the city, Wen Qingci faked his death and slipped away. In the Valley of Divine Physicians, a mysterious figure emerged, tending to flowers, reading books, and listening to music, living leisurely and carefree. Until one day, news of the emperor's old illness recurred, and he was "invited" to the imperial palace.

Before Wen Qingci could figure out how to handle the situation...

The supposed terminally ill new emperor coldly pulled aside the bead curtain, his fingertips as cold as snake scales, slowly unraveling his veil.

Mini Theater:

From birth, Xie Bufeng could hear the evil thoughts in people's hearts. He grew numb amidst aversion, curses, and malicious suspicions. Only Wen Qingci was an exception.

Xie Bufeng didn't believe that Wen Qingci's heart was as clear as a mirror.

Until one day, while the noble and sorrowful palace physician bowed to the emperor and whispered in his heart:

"Shut up, you **."

In the martial world, disputes often lead to immediate violence, frequently harming innocent, unarmed civilians who either lose their wealth or their lives.... more>>

Lu Jianwei merely complained a few times when she was suddenly bound by a system and transported to ancient times, tasked with running an inn according to the system’s rules.

The foremost rule of the inn is—

No fighting within the inn.

Violators will either lose their wealth or their lives.

A mysterious inn suddenly appeared in the martial world, rumored to be a shady establishment dealing in mu*der and robbery.

No matter who enters the inn, they either leave penniless or lose their lives.

The bold and skilled “Know-It-All” of the martial world, eager for firsthand information, sneaked into the inn alone to trace the whereabouts of missing people, only to be horrified to discover—

Isn’t that diligent woodcutter the number one swordsman of the martial world?!

Isn’t that agile waiter the number one thief of the martial world?!

Isn’t that chef wielding a kitchen knife the number one beauty of the martial world?!

Isn’t that farmer hoeing the ground the top disciple of the Martial Alliance?!

And that…

Before he could flee, the inn’s beautiful and gentle landlady stood before him with a smile.

“The inn still needs an accountant. You’re it.”

Know-It-All: I’m just a seller of information, I can’t do accounting ahhhh!

Reading Guide:

① Not a serious martial arts story, focuses on management + face-slapping + drama;

② The female lead is the strongest throughout the story (pretending at first, truly strong later), the male lead appears later;

③ For fans of overpowered management stories, all settings in the story are fictional.

There is a little-known secret in the Ji family of the Imperial Academy: the eldest daughter of the Ji family, unloved by her parents due to an inauspicious birth date, has a twin sister who has been lost and living elsewhere.... more>>

The two sisters, living vastly different lives, have developed contrasting personalities.

The elder sister is weak and easily bullied, simple and unsophisticated; the younger sister is vengeful, ruthless, and kills without blinking.

In the political turmoil of the court, disaster strikes the innocent.

The elder sister is schemed into marrying her father’s archenemy—Huo Xian, the infamous Commandant who recognized a traitor as his father.

Huo Xian is notorious for his ruthless methods and association with eunuchs, despised by many. He is also infatuated with beauty, with a harem filled with countless concubines, each as cunning as the next.

While everyone was mourning for the elder sister’s fate, little did they know that the one sitting in the bridal sedan heading to Huo household was no longer a meek and easily bullied innocent.

–

On the wedding night, facing her notorious husband, Ji Yuluo pretended to be frightened, trembling so much she fainted from fear.

Huo Xian found it boring and didn’t visit the inner courtyard for several days.

One day, by chance, he returned home and saw one of his beloved concubines struggling for help in the water while his timid new bride sat nearby, casually applying nail polish, and said nonchalantly, “What’s the rush? She won’t die.”

The other concubines knelt nearby, trembling as if they had seen a ghost.

Huo Xian watched with interest.

Later, he stared at the sparkling water droplets on the beauty’s neck, his gaze dark and unreadable—

“Tsk. She truly is an ancestor, my ancestor.”

Huo Xian, despised by everyone, walked a path of betrayal and isolation until he met someone who, in the face of extreme danger, handed him a blade to cut through the waves.

– Even if my name is forgotten in history, I will stand by him.

In her last life, Yu Lingxi fell from a myriad of stars that surrounded the moon into the dust, and was forced to sacrifice herself to the regent, Ning Yin. The regent was born handsome and beautiful, but unfortunately he has a crippled leg. He was a twisted and cruel madman who killed his brothers and father. What Yu Lingxi was most afraid of was that while wiping the fresh blood on his hands, he smiled and said to her: “Lingxi, come here.”... more>>

After only two years of marriage, Yu Lingxi passed away suddenly. After her death, Ning Yin did not set up a mourning hall, did not make funeral arrangements and buried her, and became even more insane, slaughtering the city with blood.

Then she was reborn at fifteen years old, when she was still a high-ranking noble daughter of the general’s mansion, and Ning Yin was not yet the regent who covered the sky with one hand. Unable to swallow this anger, Yu Lingxi took the guards to find Ning Yin, who was living on the street, and intended to beat him anonymously to avenge the resentment in her previous life.

Unexpectedly, when she rushed to the scene in anger, she saw the thin boy curled up and was being pressed to the ground, and his left leg was about to be broken. The muddy water was covered with blood and trickled down, soaking his dark and resentful eyes red…

Only then did she realize what a pitiful past Ning Yin had. Yu Lingxi made a mistake due to a strange combination of circumstances, and instead of going to beat someone, she went to save him.
