[Rerolling Talents at the Start + Early Beta Test Access]
Early Talent: [God of Thieves] (S-Level)
Midgame Evolution: [One-Person Party] (SS-Level)
“A free soul is never bound by the thorns of nobility. There’s no need to ascend to the divine altar or sugarcoat our deeds. We are thieves lurking in the shadows—know yourself, and then revel in unbridled joy.”
As the world turns into a game, every player awakens a divinely bestowed talent:
[Holy Light] , [Immortal] , [Breath of Winter] , [Frozen Throne] , [Elegance Never Goes Out of Style] , [Clock Out, Then Become a Chef God] , [Best Supporting Role] , [Marshmallow] , [Butter Beer] , and so on…
After being reborn, the first thing Yu Xunge does is rush home to force-feed her brother—soon to marry into the Su family—a bottle of liquor, ensuring he misses the first beta test of the game.
In her past life, this scumbag had manipulated her endlessly. It wasn’t until her dying moments that she discovered he had been scheming against her from the shadows all along.
On her deathbed, she learned she was nothing more than the villain in a male-oriented novel about a live-in son-in-law’s rise to power. All the malice and suffering she endured? It was him shifting blame onto her from behind the scenes.
This time, it’s her turn to operate in the shadows.
Male and female leads? All your fortunes? They’re mine now.
Join the beta, reroll talents, and wreak havoc from behind the curtain!
The ye xuan soul traveled through the ages, conquered the heavens, and achieved the legend of the immortal Night Emperor, but because of the betrayal of his wife and apprentice, his soul slept for 90,000 years.

The soul of the ancient emperor returned overnight, and since then, a generation of emperors has risen and opened the invincible myth of pushing the eons to the ages!

The global Ice Age has arrived, the ice apocalypse is here, and 95% of the world's population has perished!
In the previous life, Zhang Yi, due to his kind heart, was killed by those he had helped.
Reborn a month before the onset of the Ice Age apocalypse, Zhang Yi awakens spatial abilities and begins hoarding supplies like crazy!
Lacking supplies? He directly empties out a super mall’s warehouse worth billions!
Uncomfortable living conditions? He builds a super safehouse comparable to a doomsday fortress!
The apocalypse comes, and while everyone else is freezing to death like dogs, willing to sacrifice everything for a single meal...
Zhang Yi, however, lives more comfortably than before the apocalypse.
White Lotus: Zhang Yi, if you let me into your house, I'll agree to be your girlfriend.
Rich Second-Generation: Zhang Yi, I’ll trade all my money for a meal at your house!
Beastly Neighbors: Zhang Yi, you should share your supplies with us! You’re being so selfish!
...
Looking at the people who betrayed him in his past life, Zhang Yi lies comfortably in his safehouse, living a life as blissful as a paradise.
Zhang Yi: "Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me. I wouldn’t even give my stuff to you, not even to feed your dogs!"

“In my next life, and the one after that, I’ll never be your sister again!”

“Your life is mine? Then what about you???”
The synopsis can’t do it justice—please read the main story!
The Reticent Blade is, first and foremost, a wuxia novel, meaning that the world and its character’s powers and abilities are more grounded. Instead of cultivators who can soar through the heavens and shatter planets, you will find martial artists who can still perform superhuman feats but not so fantastical as to tear through space or achieve immortality.
The world of The Reticent Blade is one of medieval China, loosely based upon the time period of the Ming Dynasty. It is a time of chaos and strife, where war and death are rampant. We follow the intertwining story of several protagonists and antagonists as they navigate the chaotic times, unraveling the threads that connect the past, the present, and the future of the world.
The Reticent Blade is a story of heroism, love, revenge, and cruelty.
The Reticent Blade is a story of both the righteousness and vileness of the Jianghu.

Someone once asked me, "What is the jianghu?"
I thought for a moment, and what came to mind was…
A jug of unrefined wine on a weathered table,
A lone silhouette fading into the distance under the setting sun,
A nameless grave bathed in moonlight,
The smoldering incense in my grasp, its final wisps dissipating.
They then asked me, "Where is the jianghu?"
I smiled faintly and lifted my gaze beyond the window. Out there, beneath the vast heavens, countless jianghus lay.
A single soul carries his own story.
When two paths cross, a jianghu is born.

After two-hundred years of diligent cultivation, Xie Jiuniang successfully achieved Core Formation, yet on that very night, she was killed by her dual-cultivation partner Lin Wangchen.
However, Xie Jiuniang was reborn... and she accidentally discovered a great secret.
It turned out that in her previous life, she was a child deeply favored by the Heavenly Dao, watched over by some top forces who secretly stole her opportunities time and again, fattening up the esteemed talents of the Cultivation World, with that scum being just one of them.
The weak, pitiable, and helpless Xie Jiuniang decided to first become a dark horse, secretly sweeping away all the opportunities.
And so...
The favored talents were dumbfounded, "Where did my opportunity go?"
Her scumbag ex-husband felt wronged, " ...She didn't like me."
Her cousin with the Heavenly Spiritual Root was shocked, "What happened to the supposedly weak talent, how is her cultivation speed faster than mine?"
The big shots behind the scenes also started cursing, where was the great opportunity for the child of the Heavenly Dao to ascend? Something is not right!
Opportunities?
I've taken them, all of them!
His, yours, they are all mine, Xie Jiuniang's!
Before she knew it, she had trampled over all the privileged talents, challenged all the big shots, becoming the most formidable name, and rolled up into the number one person in the Cultivation World!
Crab monster, I am in the third year of high school, and the divorce counterattack system is twenty years early.
[At the age of thirty-eight, your marriage failed. Standing at the crossroads of thirty/forty, you think of your childhood sweetheart. After marriage, you cut off contact and no longer heard from her.
Reestablish contact with Xu Qianqian, reward: 300 RMB. ]
Eighteen-year-old Jiang Nian glanced at the system task on the panel, and then glanced at Xu Qianqian who lived across the street.
He couldn't help but fall into deep thought, well... this system seems to have come too early.
There is one more thing.
Who is the future ex-wife? Uh... Jiang Nian couldn't hold it anymore. Nian Nian was eighteen years old and would get divorced in the future.
The system issued a task to retaliate against his ex-wife. Jiang Nian looked at his ex-wife who had not yet "blackened" in front of him, and fell into deep thought again.
Childhood sweetheart, future ex-wife, future ex-girlfriend, all young versions, appeared one by one.
The system has deteriorated a bit.

He Qiu was betrayed by his father and brother. Adhering to the principle of "better to die with honor than to live in disgrace", He Qiu resolutely blew himself up and went to hell with those who betrayed him.

The flourishing Tang Dynasty was in full bloom, and a shocking fission was imminent.
In the fifth year of Tianbao, he opened his eyes and saw the prosperous and majestic spirit of “the glorious Tang Dynasty, the blessing of heaven to all nations”, with famous generals like clouds, vast territory; capable ministers like rain, abundant granaries; brilliant poetry, dazzling literature; beautiful women, singing and dancing.
He also saw that the whole court was infatuated, arrogant and extravagant, fighting for power; the country was in turmoil, and there were many problems; the Hu people rebelled, and people were like grass.
The drums of Yuyang shook the earth, and he wanted to make this Tang Dynasty not lose its splendor.
