This world did not wait for its savior.
Human civilization ended on the day when the four ancient gods descended.
However, life will always find its own way out.
Praise worms, fungi, viruses, and corpses. Humans who have stepped into the indescribable realm have opened a new era.
I am Mei Lu, the only ancient in this world and the last human.
"Ding, help has arrived!"
"Now... send to the coordinates... the nine-tailed fox elixir."
"Pass on the torch... and never extinguish..."
"Wait and hope..."
"Don't give up hope, - Taixuan Tianyu,"
Hey, your help is two thousand years late!
Mei Lu looked at the golden-haired and jade-faced nine-tailed fox bloodline elixir in front of him, and his face turned black.

Since entering the palace, Yun Li has transformed into a two-faced, hypocritical woman. She's a constant charade. Facing the favored concubine, she'll verbally attack her while feigning grievance, saying, "I envy you for receiving His Majesty's favor." When framed, she'll slap her casually before crying, "Why treat kind people like this?" When the Empress speaks, she nods absentmindedly, "Your Majesty is my guiding light! I will always obey Your Majesty!" But when facing the Emperor himself, she's obedient, adorable, and utterly devoted. "I love you so much! I have no regrets, I only wish to stay by your side, I want nothing more." However, in her heart: "I don't like you, I'm just being sweet-talking."
Ji Fanyin realized the moment she transmigrated over that she was a stand-in, a substitute for her younger twin sister, Ji Xinxin.
“Sure, I can be her stand-in. Here is my list of prices. Take a look at it first, and make sure to reserve a slot in advance. I won’t accept any last-minute calls, and do take note that it’ll only be a platonic relationship. Thank you for your cooperation,” she said.
In a western restaurant, a rich young master looked at her with eyes filled with affection as he said, “Xinxin, I would like to ask you out for a movie tomorrow night…”
An alarm suddenly went off.
Ji Fanyin took a glance at her phone before reining in her business smile, saying, “Time’s up. I need to rush for my next appointment. Make sure to foot the tab, and farewell.”
The rich young master’s smile froze up. “I’ll reserve four hours for tomorrow’s movie.”
In the middle of the night, a drunk, tyrannical young master dialed her number and whined, “Big sis, when will you come over to meet me?”
“In order to ensure the quality of service, this call will be recorded. It’s four in the morning right now, and my services will be ten times the usual price. Are you certain you want to proceed?” asked Ji Fanyin.
“… Hurry up and start acting!”
Ji Fanyin’s phone suddenly rang in the midst of a date with a domineering CEO at Tokyo’s tower. With a smile on her lips, she rejected the call and said, “Sorry, it’s another customer.”
“… I’ll pay you ten times the price. Switch off your phone.”
…
By the time Ji Xinxin finally returned back to the country, Ji Fanyin successfully retired from the scenes with the massive fortune she had amassed.
Heh, bad women will never get hurt!
