In the capital's elite social circles, rumors abound about Wen Yu's ruthlessness. Even the Emperor, upon hearing these tales, has repeatedly nodded in agreement!... more>>

Wen Yu, upon learning of this, responded with a cold smile: From a young age, her mother was mu*dered, her grandmother showed no affection, and her father offered no love. She was the target of envy and constantly schemed against. After much hardship, she finally secured a good husband, only to find her marital home a chaotic mess!

Should she play the innocent fool? If so, would a husband of exceptional talent and beauty, intelligent and considerate children, a devoted mother-in-law, and the title of Duchess simply fall from the sky?! In her past life, the Duchess met a miserable end!

Our protagonist first sets her sights on the male lead, unceremoniously claiming him as her own. After marriage, she employs every tactic imaginable: throwing herself into his arms, playing hard to get, alternating between gentle affection and playful dominance, expressing care while subtly tormenting…

From then on, the exceptionally handsome, ruthless, yet capable Fifth Young Master Qi, whose emotional intelligence borders on naive innocence, is repeatedly berated by the Emperor, who points a finger at him and scolds, "You spineless fool! What kind of life is this?! Divorce her immediately! Don't be afraid, I will support you!"

Fifth Young Master Qi blushes slightly: Actually, this life… isn't so bad…

This story portrays a strong female lead who makes every effort to achieve happiness.

***

Overlooked and undervalued, Wen Yu, the legitimate daughter of the Wen family, endures a life of quiet suffering.

On her fifteenth birthday, tragedy strikes, setting in motion a chain of events that culminates in her agonizing death. Miraculously reborn, Wen Yu returns to the day it all began, armed with the bitter memories of her past life and a steely resolve to change her fate. This time, she won't be a pawn in her family's games.

She will reclaim what is rightfully hers, expose the hypocrisy and cruelty of those who wronged her, and forge a new path for herself.

But as she navigates the treacherous landscape of family politics and builds her own power, she must confront not only her past enemies but also the unexpected attention of powerful figures who see her as a valuable asset in their own games.

Will Wen Yu succumb to her thirst for revenge, or can she find a way to break free from the cycle of pain and create a different future for herself? <<less

【Time Travel + Workplace Competition + No Lazing Around + Ambitious Female Lead】... more>>

Overachiever Shen Wei traveled through time and found herself as the lowest-ranking maid in the grand residence of the Yan Prince.

The Yan Prince held a prestigious position, but his consorts were all content to live dull lives. The noble-born princess consort was as tranquil as a chrysanthemum; the concubine sought a life of monogamy; the reincarnated woman was utterly disillusioned with the Yan Prince and had given up on striving for anything; and the other timid concubines dared not make a move...

The queen of workplace competition, Shen Wei, declared: Don't stop me! I'm going to outwork these unambitious slackers!

...

The Yan Prince had grown accustomed to the stagnant atmosphere in his harem, until a particularly skilled courtesan appeared.

This concubine was stunningly beautiful, adept at both literature and dance, hardworking, and always brought him fresh excitement. The Prince couldn't help but take a second, then a lifetime-long, look at her.

Years later, Shen Wei became the all-powerful Imperial Noble Consort, with children and the emperor's exclusive favor.

Meanwhile, the princess consort remained as tranquil as ever; the concubine was aging and had yet to experience a monogamous life; and the reincarnated woman was still eating simple meals in her modest abode...

After half a lifetime of striving, Shen Wei finally reached retirement and revealed her true nature, fully embracing a life of leisure. The retired emperor interjected: "You competed for favor just to retire?"

Shen Wei snacked on melon seeds: "What else?"

Living is all about retirement!

The retired emperor was even more surprised to find, in midlife, that other men were vying for his wife's affections! <<less

First Senior Brother is a hopeless romantic, Second Senior Brother carries a deep-seated blood feud. Third Senior Sister is caught in a love-hate cycle with the Demon Lord across three lifetimes, and Fourth Senior Sister is a femme fatale. ... more>>

The Sect Leader left the sect for love, while the Martial Uncle fell into demonic cultivation for the woman he loved…

Neither immortal nor heroic, just handsome men and beautiful women playing house.

Only the Little Junior Brother is reliable, upholding the sect while dedicating himself to profound cultivation.

The heavens stretch vast and mighty, my Dao shall prosper!

With righteousness in his heart, grand ambitions, and the fate of the world as his responsibility—

"Disciple Li Xuanxiao, requesting the Sect Leader to die!!"

"......"

The Empress: "Open your eyes and look at me. I don’t believe your eyes are truly empty."

Li Xuanxiao's eyes widened like bronze bells.

The Empress: "For you, I would rather bury the entire world with me."

Li Xuanxiao backhanded her with a slap: "What did the common people do to you?!"

"......."

Blood Demon Patriarch: "Should evil truly deserve death?"

Li Xuanxiao: "If you don’t die, then do I have to?! Hurry up and die!!"

"......"

By chance, he encounters a gravely injured demoness—stunningly beautiful.

Li Xuanxiao: "Let’s see if my poison can’t kill you!!"

"Take my sword and feel a thousand holes piercing through you!!"

"....."

Li Xuanxiao transmigrated one day—no system, no chosen one destiny, only the relentless pursuit of immortality.

But the sect is a bit unreliable.

First Senior Brother constantly attempts su*cide because of unrequited love.

Third Senior Sister brings the Demon Lord right into the sect.

His master, stuck in puberty, ran away for love.

Little Junior Sister is determined to seduce him.

The Empress sees him as her dream lover. <<less

Su Qiqian died suddenly from overwork and transmigrated into the body of an S-Class Guide with the same name in a dark-themed sentinel world.... more>>

She imagined a high-quality life surrounded by admirers, but when she opened her eyes, she found herself convicted of an unforgivable crime and sentenced to exile in the Black Tower!

In this world, all sentinels are insane to varying degrees, and the Black Tower is the worst of the worst! The Central Tower of the Federation never assigns Guides there—because no Guide is willing to live among madmen and end up as nothing more than a pile of bones!

As a pure human—now extinct in this world—Su Qiqian is lucky that none of the other Guides here have spirit animals, allowing her to keep up her disguise. As the first high-ranking Guide ever exiled to the Black Tower, the moment the mad dogs caught wind of her arrival, they went wild behind the scenes, lusting after that pure, untouchable goddess on a pedestal...

—

Su Qiqian turned on the bedroom light—and her pupils trembled. What the h**l is this?!!

The sentinels, who had been carefully pretending to be normal during the day, were now kneeling beside her bed with bulging muscles and over-the-top outfits. Their outrageously handsome faces looked pitiful as they pleaded:

“Miss Guide, please... we’re begging you...” <<less

“Send me to the past.”... more>>

The abyss has invaded, and weird creatures and ferocious beasts run rampant.... more>>

Qin Jinnian, plunged into this extraordinary world, is panicking a bit.

Until the blood moon hangs in the sky, and a "Good Sister" with pig intestines stuck in her back knocks on the door. A panel appears...

[Authority • Dark Eyes: Piercing eyes of dark shadows, your gaze can see through the mist of the Shadow World and is immune to all mental corruption from the dark world.]

[Authority • Shadow Control: You can control your own shadow.]

[Authority • Shadow Body] , [Authority • Shadow Armor] , [Authority • Shadow Escape] ...

[Authority • Death True Body] , [Authority • Abyss Walker] , [Authority • Causal Melody] ...

Years later, the abyss invades on a large scale. Qin Jinnian looks at the billions upon billions of Abyssal Species before him, stroking his chin in contemplation.

"Which Authority looks the coolest?"

◈◈◈

Qin Jin-Nian, a time traveler haunted by the 'insufficient firepower phobia' common to his kind, finds his new life in an extraordinary world of Blood Moons, monstrous Flesh Mountains, and mind-corrupting 'good sisters' turned wax figures. He awakens to a virtual panel granting him the Authority of 'Shadow Control,' a power that both terrifies and empowers him.

Forced to adapt quickly, Qin Jin-Nian uses his newfound abilities to survive a night of rampant weirdness, culminating in a desperate battle against a Flesh Mountain-connected monster. He finds himself reliant on his Authority, particularly 'Shadow Devour,' to combat the overwhelming mental corruption and physical threat.

The morning after, Qin Jin-Nian discovers the true potential of his Authority, leveling up his core skills and struggling to understand the rules of this dangerous world. He is drawn into the city’s web of extraordinary events when he rescues a neighbor and her daughter from a chaotic situation caused by a woman turning into a monster.

Driven by a desire for greater power and a need to understand this world, Qin Jin-Nian seeks to exploit his unique Authority to gain strength and knowledge. He discovers the black market, a haven for the extraordinary and a source of both opportunity and danger. He kills a member of a mysterious church, and now he is a target.

Haunted by the dangers he now faces, Qin Jin-Nian must navigate the treacherous landscape of this extraordinary world, balancing his desire for power with the need to protect himself and those around him from the horrors that lurk in the shadows. <<less

[Mind Reading + System + Transmigration into a Book + Cultivation + Group Pampering]

Xiao Xiao unexpectedly dies and transmigrates into a cannon fodder substitute in a Mary Sue-style cultivation novel where the Female Protagonist’s admirers eventually gouge out her Golden Core to save the Female Protagonist.

Luckily, she has a system. Unluckily, it’s not a Comeback System but a useless Retrieval System.

What else could she do? She can only keep her head down, avoid forming her Golden Core, and dodge the tragic fate of being gutted.

[“Master is so amazing, yet he was tragically taken over by someone just to save his disciple. And that disciple, upon learning the truth, not only refused to seek revenge but even tangled up with the perpetrator. How ungrateful!”]

Master: ?!

[“First Senior Brother is a peerless talent and should have become a great Sword Immortal. But to save the one he loves, his Life-Bound Sword broke, and his dantian was destroyed. He ended up as a useless cripple.”]

First Senior Brother: ?!!

[“Second Senior Brother had it even worse. He wasn’t skilled in combat and only loved refining pills. Because of his low combat ability, he became a pawn in the Male and Female Protagonists’ schemes. He was captured to threaten Third Junior Sister, who refused to bow her head and was brutally dismembered.”]

Second Senior Brother: ?!!!

[“Sigh, and you thought she was your bestie? Turns out she’s been hooking up with your fiancé behind your back. They’re even planning to team up to get rid of you!”]

Cannon Fodder 1: F***!

[“And the other cannon fodders, who should have had brighter futures, ended up…”]

Ghostly Resurrection, the apocalypse descends, and everyone struggles for survival. Etiquette collapses, morality declines, and for survival, people betray each other, fully revealing the evil of human nature.... more>>

In his previous life, Si Ming was betrayed by a villain and died with regret. After being reborn, Si Ming, deeply reflecting on his pain, decided to stop being human!

A woman?

Why not find a Ghostly Being as a wife, beautiful and useful.

A brother?

Why not become sworn brothers with a Ghostly Being, loyal and helpful.

A foster father?

Why not recognize a Ghostly Being as a foster father, the benefits are immense!

After joining the Ghostly Being camp, Si Ming was surprised to find that this apocalypse didn't seem so bad.

"In my previous life, I was timid and subservient, everyone treated me like a grandson."

"In this life, even my farts smell fragrant!"

"What did you say? Someone wants to join me? Of course, there can never be too many two-legged sheep."

When the Allied Forces fought their way to the most terrifying Demon King in the Ghostly World, people were shocked to discover that sitting on the throne was a human!

Chu Ruoyan, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Chu's household, saw her betrothed's family perish in battle—all except her fiancé, who survived but was left crippled.... more>>

Everyone assumed the engagement would be called off, yet the Chu family's heiress proceeded with the wedding as scheduled, uttering just two words: "I consent."

No one knew Chu Ruoyan had suffered a nightmare.

In the dream, she broke off her engagement with Yan Zheng. Three years later, while being courted by the heir of Pingjing Marquisate, rebel forces stormed the capital.

The city became a blood-soaked hellscape. Atop the walls stood the rebel leader—none other than Yan Zheng, who had just been appointed Chief Grand Councilor!

He beheaded her prospective groom, slaughtered the entire Pingjing Marquisate household, then subjected her pleading father to relentless humiliation until the old man leaped to his death from the city walls.

Upon waking, Chu Ruoyan made two immediate decisions:

Marry him. Then kill him.

Fate proved unpredictable. While the second resolution remained unfulfilled, she somehow became the most revered woman in the realm. <<less

The newly crowned emperor, who had usurped the throne, found her lifeless body and removed his dragon-patterned outer robe to cover her.

The emperor was tall and imposing, with a sinister and handsome appearance. He was also the young man she secretly admired in her past.

Due to their difference in status, Ruan An never mentioned to him that they had a son.

As she opened her eyes, Ruan An was reborn.

She didn’t want to repeat the mistakes of her previous life and only wished to return to her hometown with her young son. However, on her journey, their carriage was intercepted by someone.

At that time, Huo Pingxiao was the Marquis of Dingbei, holding military power. His expression was indifferent, but he looked at the child by Ruan An’s side with a bewildered expression.

The child bore an uncanny resemblance to him. <<less

In the fifth year of the Qingyuan era, demons ran rampant.... more>>

Three months after the death of the Lady of the Marquis of Jinyang, a new wife entered the household, but she did not get along with the legitimate daughter born of the previous marriage.

A month later, the Marquis of Jinyang claimed the legitimate daughter was not his biological child. Out of sentiment for raising her all these years, he merely expelled her from the household without pursuing the matter of bloodline confusion.

Ji Chan was driven out of her home, gravely injured and on the brink of death.

That night, she encountered an eight-tailed fox who had fled thousands of miles from the Northern Wilderness to the capital in search of a noble title.

The fox asked her: “Do I look like a human?”

Ji Chan replied: “You look more human than all of them.”

The fox said: “Sadly, all eight of my tails have been severed. I can no longer transform into a human.”

Ji Chan said: “It’s alright. I’ll give you this body of flesh and blood. Live on in my place and take revenge for me!” <<less

Wen Jiayue was reborn.... more>>

She was reborn back to the day she gave birth to her daughter.

As the daughter of a minor household marrying into the Marquis Manor, she had married above her station. Her husband, Shen Fuhan, was exceptionally handsome and talented, with a smooth path ahead in his official career.

Although he treated people with distance and coldness, and even she, who shared his bed, was no exception, after four years of marriage, Wen Jiayue believed he at least had some feelings for her.

So, even when the Old Madam disliked her for not bearing a grandson, and her husband's younger sister was arrogant and unreasonable, she endured it all, wholeheartedly serving her husband and managing the entire Marquis Manor meticulously.

She never imagined that Shen Fuhan was actually involved with the Eldest Princess. She and her daughter were tragically poisoned, meeting a miserable end, unable to rest in peace.

Living again, Wen Jiayue stopped serving. She focused wholeheartedly on taking care of her daughter, only wanting to avoid disaster and not repeat her past mistakes.

As for men...

How could a man compare to her daughter?

———

Shen Fuhan kept feeling that his wife had changed recently.

She no longer attended to his daily needs, no longer cared if he was weary, and those smiling almond eyes no longer held any affection for him.

Shen Fuhan paid it no mind. His ambitions lay with the imperial court; he absolutely wouldn't be hindered by romantic entanglements.

Until, at a flower viewing banquet, he saw Wen Jiayue chatting happily with another man, her gentle face filled with admiration. The talented man and beautiful woman looked like a match made in heaven.

Shen Fuhan watched impassively for a long time. Even as thorns pierced his palm, he felt no pain at all. <<less

But their family's style...

"Rongrong, isn't the color and pattern of this cobra especially beautiful?" Her brother held a snake and stuffed it into her palm.

"Rongrong, this skirt is full of colorful gemstones, it especially complements you." Mother held a skull skirt and gave it to her.

"Rongrong, Dad beat up everyone who scolded you and drove them out of Li Cheng." Father happily said to her.

Qiao Rong: "..."

Yes, she transmigrated into a group's favorite family of all villains, but she, in fact, is a death-courting, vicious female supporting character.

This bully family will be supplanted by an even more powerful villainous character in five years, and she will die an unnatural death.

Facing the Great Demon King who is still in his teenage years, Qiao Rong stared at his handsome and innocent face and thought, how about I strike first to gain the upper hand?

“A clean body for someone in the mafia.”

She, the agent—

“I don't like drawing on my body, so I haven’t.”

—and he, the mafia boss, met.

“But if you want it.”

His steps were elegant and dignified. Why was someone in the mafia even graceful?

“I could at least engrave your name.”

He picked up a pen with the unusually long space between his middle and index fingers. He pulled off the pen cap with his lips and spat it on the floor, then rolled up one sleeve.

A black line from the pen drew across his pale skin.

{Hye-young}

Hye-young. A name her Italian adoptive parents insisted she keep, saying the Korean name was beautiful.

“How is it? Do you think it’ll look pretty?”

Looking at his elegantly drawn handwriting, Hye-young replied.

“… What if I say it will?”

“If you say it’s pretty,”

A sinister light shimmered in his eyes.

“I’ll engrave it right now.”

Why was it that, at the mention of him engraving a tattoo on his arm, the space between her legs tightened?

“You… really…”

One thing was for sure—He really was a madman. <<less

He was precocious from birth. By the age of seven or eight, he already had some clear personal rules. However, during his five years at the Twin Immortals Sect, he hardly ever did anything willingly. So, after gaining his freedom, he strived to make sure everything he did aligned with his wishes and made him feel at peace. This wasn't an easy task, but he enjoyed it immensely. ... more>>

It's true that he pursued immortality. But the immortality he sought, or rather, yearned for, was nothing like the ruthless and cruel immortality of the Twin Immortals, Zi Lei and Chi Yin. Nor was it the petty and sordid kind sought by the Sun Light Sect or the Thousand Spirit Gate.

Many times, he would do things that seemed inexplicable to others: unrelated to morality, unrelated to profit, unrelated to right or wrong, good or evil. There was only one sufficient reason behind all this: immortality encompasses all meaningful pursuits.

I have a mirror, reflecting the mountains and rivers of the universe;
I have a sword, cutting through the realms of human hearts and ghosts;
I have a city, seated among the clouds of the Nine Heavens;
I have a heart, smiling through the trials on the path to immortality.

Why do people seek immortality? Because immortality embraces all desires and signifies infinite possibilities. <<less
