Shades Of The Exorcist's Smile

"I stayed..and left to save you. Because I was afraid."— My zhù fù. --- Since the day Lìngxiāo was born, he has carried a strange condition that never lets him show pain or anger. As an independent exorcist with no controlling clan above him, he roams the land with two burning aims: to save the common people from darkness, and to clear his own name—from his own father's murder. But was he even killed? Or was it just another betrayal of the eyes? One day, his hometown Yún Xi calls him back. A town haunted by a Red Robe Ghost—where no exorcist has survived. Or were they simply removed? Carefully. Silently. Without a trace. When Lìngxiāo arrives, a silent surprise awaits him. The veil was one, but the souls were nineteen. The history held the deaths of twenty legendary family members. But wasn't it supposed to be only one ghost—the one hunting the very heir of the clan in nightmares? Chóng Fēi. Within his discovery, he realizes: the ghosts weren't just villains. They were victims of another villain too. Now, roaming with no tongues to speak, they use every way they can to communicate with him. During his investigation—through a ballad of needles and fear, all for the sake of keeping the heir alive—the one-sided puppy love of Chóng Fēi grows into deep longing and love. It becomes his reason to walk slower. To share belongings. To share feelings. A mystery not older than the town itself. Yet no one knows it—except the ones who plotted it, sitting among them all along. There was more than one mastermind. The unknown one seems above the main other too. Can someone who roots for power and legacy move for the song bird whose nature is flying around, singing quietly from a corner of a tree, searching for his origin? Fall Of The Royal Blue: [BONE SIDE NOVEL: Coming after the whole series of Shades Of The Exorcist's Smile] Trying to make someone permanent against the rules was always one of the biggest mistakes anyone could ever make. At the time of 5AD, there were five gods who ruled the universe: Earth, Emotion, Death, Life, and Fate. The Lord of Earth was the highest of them all. Fate was the fifth-ranked god—known as Xiǎo Jiǎng. At his peak, his followers outnumbered the other three classes combined. His kindness was so overflowing that the afterlife became unbalanced: Heaven was full, and Hell was nearly empty. But during his era of greatest glory, while visiting a distant land in disguise, he met a young boy named Kagetsu—a boy who did not belong to that world. As time passed, Xiǎo Jiǎng fell for him. The boy melted his icy yet gentle heart. The Lord of Earth saw everything. Knew everything. But nothing showed in his gaze more than the vibrant leaf-green dimmed with something heavier. Until— Xiǎo Jiǎng broke the ultimate rule: he made a human immortal so they could stay together forever. And that was when he fell. The Lord of Earth ensured they would stay together and die together—until Xiǎo Jiǎng himself let go. A curse followed him into every timeline, every universe, every new skin he was born into. This is the tale of a man who kept falling, kept running—but never stopped loving. --- Welcome to the most polished and complete world of System Tearstone! This is the second half of the Bone Side Novel series—a slow burn centered around Lìngxiāo's journey. Here, I explore an important (but not main)Tearstone backstory—Lìngxiāo and Chóng Fēi. The white rose: Làncǎi. The main piece of gem: Xiǎo Jiǎng. And if you ever wish to read what was before today's polished jade—the original System Tearstone is open always, which requires nothing but your time, patience, and love.

Bound to Justice, Drawn to Evil

Every civilization has its own version of the beginning. Some call it history. Others call it myth. Few dare to ask which one is true. --- Between the lines of history, countless events have been twisted, misunderstood, and recorded incorrectly. Those who witnessed the truth chose not to correct these accounts, allowing them to become accepted as unquestionable facts. Now those false records are treated as reality, and the known universe is beginning to unravel in places where no one is looking. One wrong choice creates waves of disasters, yet the true price has not been paid. But what if someone appeared who could solve everything at its source? Csendez, a young phoenix born into one of the universe's oldest noble families, enters the Academy - an institution founded by the Alocanai Council to preserve the fragile peace between the great races. For fifty years, future leaders, warriors, scholars, and rulers are expected to study together... while rivalries, ambitions, and hidden agendas quietly grow beneath the surface. To most students, the Academy is the beginning of adulthood. To Csendez, it may become the beginning of answers. Haunted by dreams that feel more like forgotten memories than imagination, she finds herself drawn toward mysteries no one seems willing to discuss. Ancient legends refuse to remain legends. Powerful figures hide faces instead of names. Even history itself begins to contradict everything the universe believes to be true. As old truths crumble, one question becomes impossible to ignore. Some secrets were buried for a reason. And some eyes never stop watching.

Douluo: Caelus Awakens the Martial Soul Istaroth

Reincarnated into the Douluo Continent during the era of The Unrivaled Tang Sect, Cealus originally believed that, with a system in hand, he would soar to the peak of the continent from the very start. Who could have expected that this unreliable system would be erased the moment it activated, vanishing without a trace? Just when he thought the script of his life had been completely torn apart, he discovered that the system had not truly disappeared. Instead, it had sacrificed itself to the Heavenly Dao, leaving behind a legacy imbued with unfathomable authority. With no other options, Cealus reluctantly accepted this inheritance, awakening a time-attribute martial soul—Time Ruler, Istaroth. From that moment onward, the power system of the Douluo Continent began to feel… distorted. While others relied on soul power cultivation, spirit rings, and explosive soul skills, his abilities ignored conventional scaling and instead revolved entirely around temporal mechanics. [Effect Precedes Cause] Anchor a future outcome, lock in the result, then retroactively rewrite the past to ensure it happens. [Time Deletion] Erase the process itself and arrive directly at the predetermined conclusion. [Time Reset] On the brink of death one second, completely restored the next. [Time Phase] Your attack may shake the heavens, but my true body exists at another point along the timeline. If you can, pursue me across time itself. There were no exaggerated soul power ranks, no dramatic ring explosions—yet whenever Cealus smiled and casually raised his hand, even the God-Kings of the Divine Realm felt an inexplicable chill. “This person’s soul skills… they operate on principles beyond the laws of this world.” Cealus, later dubbed the King of Narratives and the So-Called Gentleman Who Lives Off His Wife, merely gazed at the vast starry sky above Douluo and let out a faint chuckle. “Even without a system… I remain invincible.”

Chakravartin - From a Clerk's Son to Emperor of India

In 2025, Eshaan Vikram Shresth is an archaeology professor at the New Nalanda University - brilliant, overlooked, and quietly consumed by a love of civilizations that died before the world could appreciate them. When he follows a hidden alignment in the ruins of the original Nalanda into a subterranean sanctum, he stumbles upon a secret the world has kept for over two millennia. The Nine Unknown Men, the legendary society founded by Emperor Ashoka the Great after the Kalinga War, are real. They have kept their vigil across centuries, guarding nine books of knowledge so dangerous that no single era could be trusted with them. And one of those books - the Ninth, has been waiting. For him. The Quill of Sociogenesis, dark and iridescent and impossibly alive, does not ask Eshaan's permission. It chose him. And next thing Eshaan knew, he is ten years old, frail, suffering from a disease and lying in a clerk's house in Pataliputra and the year is 1178 CE. He carries two things into this new life: the accumulated knowledge of a modern historian who has spent his career studying exactly what went wrong with India, and the mark of a cosmic mandate written in his own flesh. He knows the invasions coming. He knows the betrayals, the fractures, the missed chances. He has read every book, studied every empire that rose and fell in this soil. Now he will build the one that doesn't. Disclaimer - This Novel series is an Isekai medieval India historical fiction. I don't wish to hurt anyone's feelings and would like to trace an alternative history for Indian Subcontinent, exploring the possibilities if the events unfolded in a different way.

Darkxside

Spezia is peaceful — on the surface. Its officials preach stability, promise safe futures to those who comply, and hand out "golden opportunities" to anyone willing to stop asking questions. Zenon doesn't believe a word of it. Caught between a father who wants him drafted into military service, a best friend chasing a fantasy life in Aristia he knows nothing real about, and a persistent, gnawing suspicion that nothing around him is as random as it looks — Zenon drifts through his own quiet chaos. He assumes it's just in his head. A school trip should have been harmless. A luxury yacht. Calm water. A day meant to reward students who never earned anything in their lives. Then the blood. Bodies in the bathroom. A supervisor who isn't what he claims to be. A scream that never should have stopped — and did. By the time Zenon understands what's happening, it's already too late to run. What follows isn't survival. It's a reckoning. Because long before the yacht, before the screaming, before the first body hit the floor — something had already been growing behind Zenon's eyes. A single black point, expanding in a white, endless space, night after night, in dreams he never told anyone about. Now it's awake. And when it opens, nothing about that beach — or about Zenon — will make sense the way it used to. --- Posting schedule: ! 4 chapters/week while trending in Rising Stars ! 2 chapters/week afterward ! 5 chapters on release day !
