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.

Trenchbound Arcana: The Great War Across Europa

In the turbulent era of Europa from 1913 to 1920, a devastating world war ignites following the assassination of Great Duke Francis, heir to the Middle Nations of Germano-Hungry—loyal allies of the formidable Great Empire. This spark escalates into a brutal clash, with the Great Empire locked in combat against a coalition of powers: the steadfast Republic of France, the shadowy Transnatia (formerly Romania), the expansive Great United Front of Russia, and the naval-dominant Island Nation of Commonwealth (Britain), as additional nations are pulled into the conflict across the years. "Trenchbound" chronicles the war through shifting perspectives of soldiers on the battlefield, each chapter capturing a unique viewpoint at critical junctures. From the desperate struggles of everyday infantrymen navigating treacherous trenches and mechanized assaults—featuring colossal steam-driven tanks and armored contraptions—to the elite magic divisions, where mages command ethereal flying machines (distinct from conventional aircraft) to soar above the fray. These sorcerers enchant bullets with devastating spells, causing them to explode on impact or unerringly track their targets, turning the odds lethally against ordinary troops and amplifying the chaos of combat. Through these personal narratives, the novel delves into the grim realities of a war where arcane enhancements merge with industrial might, exposing the fragility of life, the bonds of camaraderie, and the shattering consequences of enchanted warfare that reshapes Europa's destiny. This alternate historical epic blends authentic period tensions with limited magical intrigue, painting a vivid portrait of survival amid enchanted peril.

Well… actually, even if you aren’t one, you might still enjoy the story. I’m not some big-shot writer or legendary author. I know that much myself. But I want to try. I want to keep writing until the day I truly fail. And even if I fail… what’s there to worry about? I’ll simply write again. I always get bombarded with ideas for stories. Worlds, characters, plot twists — they keep appearing in my head nonstop. But the problem is… I often stop halfway through before reaching the end. That’s why, if you ever have ideas about where the story could go in the future, feel free to comment. I’ll definitely read them, and who knows— Your idea might end up shaping the story itself. Now, let me say something honestly. I’m kind of a bastard who does whatever he wants. You know those people who claim they don’t care about what others say? Yeah… I said I’m one of them. But that was a huge lie. In reality, I’m someone who gets affected by what people think of him. Especially my readers. So don’t forget to drop some comments about the story. Whether it’s criticism, suggestions, or just random thoughts — I’ll read them seriously. Your words might be the thing that keeps me writing instead of giving up halfway again. Give me a little push. A little motivation. Just enough so I don’t quit. LIKE HELL!! I WILL GIVE UP!!! So with those words— Let the cultivation begin.

My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!

Yun Wanqing transmigrated into a book and became the pitiful and short-lived cannon fodder sister of the vicious female supporting character in the story. Thinking about the tragic fate awaiting her family, Yun Wanqing cried out in her heart. "Mother, you kindly took in the cousin, yet she covets my father and wants to become his concubine. Soon, she will harm you to death~" "Father, you were set up by the female protagonist, and after your death, your head was displayed on the enemy’s city wall to be scorched by the sun, becoming Da Wu Country’s shame~" "Elder sister is the female protagonist, but her fortune is taken away, turning her into a vicious female supporting character. Later, she is abandoned by her fiancé and tortured to death by the female protagonist’s suitors~" "Elder brother, a virtuous and noble gentleman, is betrayed by friends, ending up blind, deaf, and fighting with dogs for food in the streets~" "Second brother, a demonic prodigy, loses his memory overnight, is picked up by the female protagonist, and becomes her lapdog, helping her kill Seventh Uncle and his beloved. Ultimately, his beloved dies in his arms, and he draws his sword to kill himself." "As for me, well, I was shot through the heart by ten thousand arrows along with Seventh Uncle!!!" Later, Yun Wanqing astonishingly discovers that the family’s character settings have collapsed. Mother dealt with the cousin in advance, father wasn’t killed, elder sister married the Emperor and became his only beloved in the harem. Elder brother was the first to betray his friend, second brother married his beloved, and even Seventh Uncle wasn’t a major antagonist, but instead became the most sought-after eligible bachelor among the noble women in the capital. As for her, she was cherished and pampered by the entire family. Yun Wanqing was baffled, how did the whole villainous family change their fate against the heavens? The plot has collapsed way too absurdly, hasn’t it? Did she transmigrate into a fake book?

I Fell for My Cultivation Bestie's Husband

Many years after the era of immortal cultivation, one day someone carelessly asked the Demon Queen, “I heard that the First Lady of the Demon Realm is your dear sister-friend?” Upon hearing this, the Demon Queen's eyebrows shot up and her almond-shaped eyes widened, “Dear sister-friend my ass, she stole my man!” No sooner had she spoken these words than the exceptionally handsome man beside her slowly shifted his gaze from the book in his hands and cast her a fleeting glance, making the inquirer feel as if the temperature in the hall had suddenly dropped, and their body had plunged into an icy cavern... The Demon Queen glared at the man nonchalantly, “Did I say something wrong?” It later became known that the Demon King's wife and the Demon Queen were once close friends who became enemies over a man, a scandal that spread across all realms. Then someone with a death wish approached the First Lady of the Demon Realm, who always looked gentle and kind, and asked, “Madam, I heard that it was the Wolf Clan's Demon Queen who brought you to this realm back in the day, and that afterwards you both ventured through various realms together, facing life and death side by side as sworn sisters. But later... I heard that you and her... had a falling out over a man?” With a slight smile, the Demon King's wife gently sipped from her white porcelain teacup and said, “Did she say I stole her man?” After nodding in acknowledgment, “That is indeed the case!” The listener was taken aback, internally exclaiming, “So the rumors are true, did our Madam Wang actually have an affair with that Demon Queen?” While lost in thought, the listener heard the tea-drinker add another sentence, “But... she also stole my man after all!” The questioner's eyes widened, and their mouth gaped open. Before they could even take a breath of cool air in shock, So you two were swapping partners? At that moment, a sudden loud bang came from outside, and a voice bellowed like a mighty bell, “Boom...” “You said... who is your man?”
