Mirror in the Dust

In the 170th year of Yong’an of the Great Wei Dynasty, a secret scandal broke out within a princely household, one that shook both the imperial court and the immortal sects alike. The only son of the Northern Garrison Prince, infamous throughout the realm as utterly worthless and rotten to the core, was in truth the lowly son of a stable slave, switched at birth years ago by the Demonic Sect. The real heir, meanwhile, turned out to be a true disciple of a Sage, newly appointed top Scholar, having already cultivated a breath of Righteous Qi of the Vast Heavens. For a time, all of Great Wei erupted in jubilation. People everywhere congratulated the princely household on rectifying the origin and returning to the source, on finally recovering their qilin-born prodigy. ....... “Yeah, it really is worth celebrating, if only this so-called fake heir weren’t me.” Gu Fangchen faced the Northern Garrison Prince and the true heir who had come to confront him, then glanced at the randomly assigned profession hovering above his head: [Emperor (1 day)] [Skill One: Mandate of Heaven (Passive)] [Skill Two: Power of Life and Death (Active)] That year, the Northern Garrison Princess Consort was still gentle as water, doting on her child to the point of indulgence. The Eldest Princess was cold as frost, proud and aloof, a single smile worth a fortune. The Younger Princess was sweet, foolishly adorable, obsessed with heroic young knights, and most of all despised shameless villains. The Grand Princess struck fear across battlefields as a peerless war god. The female State Preceptor could overturn clouds and rain with a mere turn of her hand. The moment Gu Fangchen opened his eyes, he knew it: He had transmigrated to become an emperor. Those who follow me shall prosper. Those who oppose me shall perish.

SHADOW BETWEEN STARS

Lior has always heard the stars speak in a language no one else can understand. One restless night on the edge of an abandoned observatory, that quiet pull becomes a summons: a living shimmer of light on the horizon, an orb of blue-violet energy that calls them across the boundary between worlds. They step through and fall into the Between—a realm of black-glass plains veined with starlight, drifting constellations that move too slowly, and ruins that remember older wars. Hunters of pure shadow pour through the weakening seams of reality, drawn to any presence that does not fully belong to a single world. Lior is such a presence: a Thin One, able to touch doors others cannot even see. In a sealed chamber of breathing stone and living symbols, Lior meets three who have already survived the Between. Kael, iron-still and relentless, fights as though every motion has already been decided. Nyx, sharp-edged and laughing, moves like freedom given blades. Seris, half-light and half-memory, speaks for the boundaries themselves. Together they teach Lior that power without control is only a louder way to die. Through instinct, terror, and hard-won stillness, Lior learns to open sealed ruins, to hold light as invitation rather than weapon, and finally to claim a fragment left by the Thin One who came before—an anchor of the old boundary itself. The fragment brings memory, strength, and a second heartbeat that makes Lior far more visible to the things that hunt. Now the seals hold a little longer. The shadows gather a little closer. And the stars keep watching, waiting to see whether this new Thin One will spend the borrowed time the way the last one did… or find another way entirely.

Addicted to you

Yeri was once a succubus, a powerful and irresistible seductress who fed on desire. Now reborn as a stunning young woman in the modern world, she must navigate the confusing collision of her human innocence and her demonic memories. One night, fate leads her into the path of Shin Keir, a dangerously magnetic and notorious CEO known for getting everything he wants—except peace. Their accidental encounter sparks an intense, uncontrollable passion, and a single night together changes everything. *** Excerpt: The dream had returned. Same eerie forest. Same surreal woman in the crimson dress. But this time, the setting had changed slightly. She now stood at the edge of a cliff made of jagged, glowing red rocks that resembled oversized rubies. Scarlet butterflies floated around her like living embers. A thick fog blanketed the area like some forbidden realm between worlds. She turned to him, her smile soft, sweet—and somehow tragic. She was heartbreakingly beautiful, ethereal yet forlorn, like a love story written in fading ink. Shin had tried to call out, but the wind swallowed his voice. As he stepped forward, the woman mouthed something. He couldn't hear her. Then, in a horrifying instant, her body tilted, and she plummeted off the cliff. The despair that followed wasn't just a feeling—it was a full-body, soul-tearing scream that never made it past his throat. Without hesitation, Shin leapt after her. He awoke convulsing, drenched in cold sweat. His eyes gleamed with a strange madness, a devil struggling behind the polished CEO exterior. *** Disclaimer- Places and characters are all works of fiction.

The Dao of Thread and Root

###This is a slow pacing novel! [CONTENT WARNING: This work is intended for an adult audience (18+). Contains explicit sexual content, visceral violence and dark psychological dynamics.] MAIN TAGS: #DualCultivation #Smut #Yandere #Harem #OverpoweredProtagonist #Violence #ObsessiveRomance #WorldBuilding SYNOPSIS: The universe is not a cradle for enlightenment; it is a cosmic slaughterhouse. Immortality is no divine gift, but a ruthless theft against the laws of entropy. In an ecosystem where ancient sects operate as meat grinders and hypocritical heroes rule atop mountains of bones, Zhì Yuǎn is an anomaly. He does not cultivate the Dao to harmonize with the world—he cultivates to devour it. Carrying an insatiable Singularity within his chest, his mere existence warps the natural balance, drawing the scrutiny and fury of the heavens. To feed this inner abyss and force his ascension through the Three Thousand Worlds, he does not walk alone. By his side are his wives—cultivation partners and accomplices in his boundless ambition. They are not the fragile trophies so typical of this world, but the very foundation of his power, as pragmatic and dangerous as the man they follow. Together, they are not heroes seeking justice. There is no room for false morals, mercy toward enemies, or wasting time on the vanity of arrogant young masters. Transcendence demands resources, and they will take them all. The heavens may try to crush the anomaly, but Zhì Yuǎn sees only one thing in the Tribulations: more fuel for his ascension.

The Sect of the Lost Heir.

In a forgotten lower world, Lin Yuan grew up as an orphan, convinced he had been abandoned at birth. His only clue to his origin is a dull gray medallion that seems completely worthless, a strange object no one in his remote region can recognize. When he tries to enter the Grey Cloud Sect to change his fate, he discovers that his spiritual meridians are severely damaged and is publicly humiliated as trash incapable of cultivation. But just when his life seems to have reached its end, a dimensional rift drags him into an impossible inheritance: the Supreme Sect Foundation System. Instead of turning him into a lone warrior, the system gives him a far greater mission—to found a sect, raise monstrous disciples, and lead it to a height that can challenge the heavens. With his meridians only partially repaired, a sealed legacy hidden within the Firmament-Sealed Medallion, and a ruined mountain as his only starting point, Lin Yuan must build the Primordial Firmament Sect from nothing. As he gathers the world's discarded talents and faces clans, sects, and hidden enemies, the mystery of his past begins to awaken. The medallion that protected him when he was a baby does not belong to that world, and all signs point to the truth that Lin Yuan is no ordinary orphan, but the lost heir of the mighty Lin Family of the Celestial Firmament, one of the great bloodlines of the higher worlds. From humiliation to ascension, Lin Yuan will walk a path of blood, glory, loss, and conquest to discover who cast him into the abyss... and why the heavens are not done with him yet.
