Seek your own path, keep searching, and you'll find the way of humanity. Water and mountains may be crossed, but the path remains. May Heaven never grow old, and may my hometown forever be well. I see only green mountains, yet everywhere they are pierced by rain and wind. The road to my hometown seems endless. The Way of the Taoist, the Way of the Gods—I seek the way of humanity myself. Demons and monsters all claim to be good, but the winds howl and thunder roars, heaven and earth waile and ghosts cry. Why has the once beautiful land become a sea of blood? The road to my hometown seems like a road of no return. I ask humanity, where can I find the Way? (Although this has been used before, I'll still use it to feel appropriate.)

The story takes place in the fictional Chinese kingdom of Caiyun. According to legend, a young man, aided by the power of the Eight Immortals, founded Caiyun. Consequently, Caiyun's territory was divided into eight provinces: Hongzhou, Huangzhou, Bizhou, Lanzhou, Zizhou, Heizhou, Baizhou, and Chazhou. Approximately 600 years ago, the king of the time ordered the nobles of each province to adopt one of these eight colors as their surnames (for example, the Marquis of Lanzhou became Lan, the Marquis of Hongzhou became Hong, and so on). Commoners were prohibited from sharing surnames with these eight marquises. Consequently, those bearing these eight colors were considered the most aristocratic of the nobles. Furthermore, because the Marquis of Zizhou, where the capital was located, also served as king, the Zi family became the royal family's surname. Despite being born into the prestigious Hong family, Hong Xiuli lived in poverty. She had to work extensively to support her family. Having experienced the turmoil of the throne struggle as a child, she deeply understood the suffering of the people. From a young age, she diligently studied, hoping to pass the imperial examination, become an official, assist the king, and build a prosperous and peaceful nation. However, as a woman, she cannot take the imperial examination. One day, Xiu Li accepts a high-paying commission from Grand Tutor Xiao and enters the harem as a noble concubine to teach and assist the incompetent emperor. This opportunity leads Xiu Li to a career as an official, and she encounters a variety of people.

(Fully revised and best read for the original version) [An old-fashioned post-apocalyptic supernatural power novel, no transmigration, no rebirth, no system. Thank you for your support!] 1. With the arrival of the apocalypse, Song Ke, who grew up in an abandoned area, unexpectedly awakens her supernatural power. All objects within her field of vision can be transformed into handy magical weapons at her will. She is the sharpest blade, now possessing the most flexible sheath, and wherever she goes, zombies tremble in fear. After wandering alone for many days, Song Ke picks up a troublesome man. The man has a broken leg, speaks weakly and is half-dead, clearly about to die, yet a seductive smile plays on his lips. "Little girl, I have nothing to repay you with, so how about you repay me with your body?" Song Ke stares at the suspicious man for two seconds, then slowly summons her magical weapon. "Tell me, tell me, how do you want to die?" Once is enough, and so it goes, and from then on, her adventure path... is led astray? She picks up one strange teammate after another. 2. A year after the apocalypse, a sinister rumor circulated among the survivor bases: the top-ranked superpowered squad, "V587," consisted of burly, powerfully built men, the kind of tough guys who could scare children to tears. Just their name, V587, suggested their imposing and awe-inspiring presence! V587 had defeated zombie kings, kicked mutated beasts, stormed the death row in the City of Sin, and KO'd the notorious C-sector governor with a single blow! No matter how difficult the task, they could handle it flawlessly. Their exploits were legendary throughout the alliance, inspiring awe and reverence in countless superpowered individuals. Then, the first Global Superpowered Challenge opened, and the mysterious V587, all members present, made their first public appearance. Everyone stared blankly: "Wait, who are these old people, young people, sick people, and two cripples in wheelchairs? V587? Oh nooooo!" A stuttering little guy with explosive combat power vs. a cunning smiling tiger. [Reading Guide] 1.
