“Guokuo, Guoguo, ci… ciguo cake, fragrant…”

“Brother, after Qiu’er finishes eating this delicious, golden pancake fruit, can you tell Qiu’er another story?”

“Brother, Xia’er has signed up for the singing competition, will you teach Xia’er a song?”

“Brother, can you dance folk dances? Chun’er wants to learn…”

Zhuang Zhou dreamed of a butterfly, and the butterfly waved its wings gently, changing the wheel of life in suffering, and also changing the sky of Shengyu.

I don't know how high the sky is, or how thick the earth is.

I only see the cold moon and the warm sun, which burn the life of people!

Billions of lives are wandering in hell, wandering between life and death, and sufferings are endless!

Duan Rong's soul traveled through a foreign land and gained the ability to devour weapon spirits: weapons, calligraphy and paintings, ancient trees, statues of gods, all things have spirits, I can devour them all!

Duan Rong took this as a foundation, carefully managed, rose from humble beginnings, and finally crushed the mountains and rivers, knocking on the sky and asking for the truth!

[Weapon: long-handled broadsword. ]

[Weapon spirit level: third level. ]

[Devouring requirements: host's mental power level 3. ]

[Devouring effects: mastery of Rakshasa swordsmanship, mastery of Shura swordsmanship, mastery of Huangquan swordsmanship, entry level of Bagua swordsmanship. ]

Duan Rong looked at the swallowing effect that appeared in front of him and swallowed his saliva in confusion. "Mastery of three doors?"

Jiang Ci and Li Chenglin had only met a few times, yet on the day Jiang Ci was sentenced to death, the always composed and dignified Princess Royal lost her cool for the first time. She risked the crime of treason by leading troops to storm the imperial prison, and in front of countless witnesses, she called Jiang Ci by her childhood name and pulled her into her embrace.

Only then did Jiang Ci realize: she had a face that Li Chenglin could never forget.

After being reborn, Jiang Ci proceeded with caution, deliberately drawing close to Li Chenglin.

She intended to use this face to confuse her, deceive her, seduce her. As long as she could achieve her goal, she didn’t care about being just a substitute.

She incited her to rebel and seize the throne—but when Li Chenglin insisted on making her Empress, Jiang Ci faked her death in an attempt to escape.

What she didn’t expect was that Li Chenglin would descend into madness, refusing to bury her, hugging her “corpse” to sleep every night, and whispering in her ear with near insanity:

> “A’Ci, since you’ve provoked me, don’t even think of escaping. Even in death, you will forever belong to me.”

One-line Summary: This subject welcomes Her Royal Highness to ascend the throne.

Theme: Be a self that cannot be defined by others.

Night Battles—system-organized battles carried out in the dead of the night when all are asleep, save for Night Battle participants.

“Congratulations, you have obtained the SSS-grade power.”

The system’s voice is music to the ears.

Yet for Fang Ran…

Slamming the magic book in his hand onto the ground, he bellows, “F*ck you and your Clow Cards! I am not a f*cking magical girl!”

Fang Ran, twenty years old, with no bad track record, doesn’t smoke, doesn’t drink, and is a virgin. The amount of time he has been single is the same as his age. He had always believed that he has an ordinary fate.

However, he is about to find out that fate is in fact unpredictable when he gets randomly dragged into Night Battles.

“What happened to the promised immortality cultivation, ancient martial abilities, magic powers and witchcraft?!”

“I f*cking started with a cool infinity-genre opening, so why did I get the power of a magical girl!?”

After Jiang Chen obtained the delivery system of the heavens, he began his life of delivering food across the heavens.

Give Doraemon a Dorayaki and reward Bamboo Dragonfly.

Give Hong Qigong a beggar chicken, and reward the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

Send ten altars of good wine to Jiu Jianxian, and reward Shushan's swordsmanship.

Send bananas and peaches to Monkey King at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain, and reward seventy-two transformations.

...

Jiang Chen was just silently delivering food, but before he knew it, he realized that he was already invincible.

Bad boy, hot-blooded and frivolous!

Wang Hao, who had been bullied and ostracized by his classmates for three years in junior high school, thought he would change when he came to Chengnan High School. Who knows, but here he met his old enemy from junior high school again...

But this time, Wang Hao decided to change his destiny. Witness the growth history of a good student who was originally cowardly and incompetent, and gradually emerged as a "bad guy"! -------------------------------------------------- -

In her previous lifetime, they had married for five years. He meant everything to her, but she was thrown away like an old shoe.

After her rebirth, she gave him a divorce contract preemptively—

“Divorce after one year, the terms of the contract are as follows: husband and wife shall not share a room or bed. Intimacy forbidden?”

He raised his eyebrow.

Who knew that after she got drunk one day, leaning on the headboard, he rested his deep-set eyes on her. “You broke the contract, Mrs, Li.”
