future

Aloof but secretly vain and shy bottom X Black-bellied, loyal and doting top He was once the most revered Celestial Master in the immortal realm — exorcising demons, commanding respect, and bearing the heavy weight of a sect leader. But betrayal threw him into a sacrificial array, his body shattered as he sealed the Gate of Infernal Flames with his own soul. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a strange yet vibrant modern world — brimming with spiritual energy and dazzling technology. No one here knew his name, no one here demanded his strength. Finally, he could shed his cold, stern façade and just be… himself: a little vain, a little quirky, and secretly longing for warmth. But then came him. Leander Ashcroft — silver-haired, silver-eyed, graceful and dangerous all at once. The young and powerful head of the Ashcroft family, who wore a gentle smile yet ruled his world with ruthless precision. And from the moment their eyes met, he caged him in a tender yet unrelenting embrace. “Mr. Han… I can be very patient with you.” “You don’t have to run anymore. You don’t have to fight alone. This time, let me protect you.” What began as a wary partnership slowly turned into something deeper, sweeter — a love that disarmed his guarded heart. Even as darkness stirred again and greedy eyes coveted his blood and power, only one man stood steadfast by his side. “The world may want your strength and your life. But the only thing I want… is you.”

In a galaxy driven by desperation and ambition, The Iron Circuit stands as the deadliest and most legendary race in existence. It begins on Earth and spans across several hostile planets, deep-space asteroid fields, and shifting environments designed to push racers past their physical and mental limits. With a five-million-mile course and no guaranteed survival, only the boldest dare to enter. Fewer live to finish. The racers don’t just compete for sport—they fight for everything. Wealth, legacy, and the chance to alter their fates. Some come for revenge. Some want redemption. Others want to rewrite reality itself. That’s what the Galactic Council promises: eternal fame, infinite riches, and one wish with no limitations. But there’s a catch—only one can win, and most won’t live long enough to try.

Born into poverty, Xavier has only ever wanted one thing: a better life for himself and his mother. That distant dream suddenly becomes possible when he acquires a mysterious system that grants him the chance to become a Chaser—elite pilots chosen to wield humanity’s most powerful weapons. In a time engulfed by constant war, Xavier is drafted into the [ESDF] and assigned to the Blood Hound Garrison, a unit known as much for its reckless pilots as its brutal survival rate. As a rookie Chaser, he must learn to pilot a Titan, a massive combat mech built to repel the extraterrestrial forces threatening Earth from beyond the planet. Thrown into real battles far sooner than he expected, Xavier quickly learns that hardwork alone isn’t enough to survive. With enemies closing in, pressure mounting, and lives on the line, his dream of a better future may come at a far greater cost than he ever imagined.

After being betrayed, poisoned, and stripped of her empire by her husband Zhang Wei, 34-year-old CEO Lin Xia wakes up in her 18-year-old body in 1988. It is the dawn of China’s economic opening, a time when fortunes are made in the mud of forgotten villages. ​ Armed with thirty years of future market data and business acumen, Lin Xia saves her family from a predatory loan, bypasses corrupt local middlemen, and secures her first foreign currency contract with a German trader. She forms an uneasy but powerful alliance with the "Ice King," Han Huojin, a rising political star who recognizes her ability. ​ Lin Xia moves her operation to the "worthless" marshes of Pudong, Shanghai. She buys a derelict cannery, transforms it into a high-efficiency textile plant, and breaks the grip of lazy state-protected unions. While the rest of the world sees a swamp, Lin Xia sees the future financial center of Asia.

At five years old, he was sent away from the only world he knew—a village where dreams grew slowly and a home where silence meant safety. Thrown into a hostel far too early, he learned lessons no child should: how silence can protect, how fear can become routine, and how a heart learns to beat quietly just to survive. Years later, in a crowded city full of noise and ambition, the past still lives between his heartbeats. The ragging, the loneliness, the nights spent hiding emotions—none of it truly stayed behind. Silent Between Heartbeats is a raw, emotional journey of a boy who grows up too soon and a man who must finally face the silence he learned to live with. This is not just a story of pain, but a story of survival, healing, and the quiet strength it takes to speak after years of silence.

I have been reborn in France, and luckily, I have the identity of the Crown Prince. The downside is that the current king is Louis XVI, and in two years, he will be guillotined. Since my father and the ministers can’t be trusted, I’ll have to take matters into my own hands and reorganize France myself. First, I’ll make some money, just enough to solve the financial crisis that has plagued the country for centuries. Then, I’ll strike hard at the nobles with ill intentions who seek to usurp power. After that, I’ll seize the vast lands held by the church, which sits idle. Industry, technology, agriculture, and commerce will thrive together. I will be the greatest Crown Prince France has ever seen! Thank you for the support, friends. If you want to read more chapters in advance, go to my Patreon.

Time Magazine once gave this review of a man: "Mr. Yang is a great inventor. The products he created changed how hundreds of millions live, work, and travel." "At the same time, his inventions created millions of jobs and made outstanding contributions to regional economies." ... Never would he have imagined—Yang Wendong, already a successful entrepreneur, would accidentally travel back to the 1950s. Given a second chance, he would once again rise from nothing, climb to the peak of this era, and build a century-spanning Chinese family empire.

Max, a man who has chosen a different, slower path. Most active players who haven't given up on completing the game go to higher floors soon after they get unlocked, if not immediately. However, the main character thinks that there must be a reason each world is so large and detailed. There must be a reward for exploring a world thoroughly, even if it has been cleared after defeating the main boss monster. And so, he decides to stay and do what he has always loved to do in video games, explore and discover. To embark on an epic adventure. Or maybe he was simply scared in the early stages of the game. This is a deadly game after all, one in which millions are trapped.

Lin Haoran was reborn in 1978 Hong Kong, becoming a wealthy young heir. At this time, the glory of the British financial consortiums was beginning to fade, while Chinese capital was rising rapidly like bamboo after the rain, starting to shine on the international stage. Former British-controlled giants like Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa were becoming prime targets pursued by Chinese entrepreneurs. So, with growing strength, Lin Haoran set his sights on the leading British trading firm—Jardine Matheson... Thank you for the support, friends.

Lucas transmigrates to a parallel world and is thrilled to discover that many of the classic, brilliant games from his past life don’t exist here. Eager to make his mark, he’s also burdened with an "Emotion Collection System"—where players’ emotions like joy, sorrow, excitement, fear, and anger from his games make him stronger. But why is it so much easier to harvest resentment than happiness? Staring at his point earnings, Lucas is utterly baffled. And so, his career as a game designer takes a… creative turn. In Undertale, players slam their desks and scream: "I’m the one being played by this game!" In Outlast, players shriek: "The locker moved! I quit—NOPE!" In Dark Souls, players cheerfully boot up the game, only to beg: "Leave the Fire Keeper and GET OUT! Take your damn flame with you—we refuse to link it!" In Call of Duty, Soap, Roach, and Ghost meet tragic ends; in Final Fantasy VII, Zack falls in battle and Aerith meets her fate; in Red Dead Redemption, Arthur and John are betrayed… Players collectively rage: "DAMN YOU, LUCAS, YOU SADISTIC OLD FOX! CAN’T YOU BE KINDA TO YOUR PROTAGONISTS?!" When asked by a reporter how he feels about players’ fury, LUCAS smiles faintly: "This isn’t hatred—it’s the world’s players urging me forward! This is LOVE! Thank you all; I’ll keep up the good work!"

Warhammer: We Are All Alpharius Before you lies the Emperor, who existed long before humanity's first city was built. He loved his fellow humans; throughout history, he silently amassed knowledge and protected his race. He foresaw humanity's progress, embodying various roles throughout different eras. After experiencing the Golden Age, the Dark Age, and the Age of Strife among the stars, humanity once again entered the Age of Empire. In the 798th year of the 30th Millennium, humanity once again united under one banner: the joint rulers of Holy Terra and Mars, the protectors of the Imperium of Man, the immortal Emperor! The Emperor began the Great Crusade to conquer the stars! This was the best of times, and the worst of times! Powerful Primarchs, once lost, returned one after another, forming Legions to join the Great Crusade. A time-traveling soul united with the 20th Primarch, Omegon. From then on, Alpharius Omegon became the name of both one and two people. Alpharius Omegon was both the first and the last Primarch to return, or had he already returned? No, actually... "You are Alpharius, I am Alpharius, we are all Alpharius!" "Long live Hydra!" ____________________ [RAW: 战锤：我们都是阿尔法瑞斯] __________________ Themes: #Warhammer30K #GreatCrusade #PreHorusHeresy #GrimdarkUniverse #PoliticalIntrigue #PsychologicalWarfare #AlternateHistory #DualityOfMan #FateAndFreeWill #PowerAndSacrifice --- Main Character Traits: #TransmigratorProtagonist #PrimarchReincarnation #EmpireBuilder #MilitaryStrategy #VisionaryLeader #TacticalGenius #CunningButKind #CompassionateYetRuthless #CharismaticCommander #MasterManipulator #AntiheroMC #HiddenIdentity #BrotherhoodAndLoyalty --- Setting & Lore: #EmperorOfMankind #ImperiumOfMan #AlphaLegion #Alpharius #Omegon #HydraDominatus #PreHeresyExpansion #EmpireManagement #TimeTravel #WarhammerMultiverse #IntelligentCivilizationBuilding #GodlikeProtagonist #MaleLead
