Haas opened a portal some distance away from Crystal Lake on purpose. He thought he might face a dog's death if he encountered monsters immediately after he stepped through the portal. He was incredibly nervous when he arrived, but everything was quiet. He wondered if he'd come to the wrong place at first. But that couldn't be right. He trusted his own skills. He regained his senses and checked his surroundings. He was definitely near Crystal Lake. But why wasn't anyone there? He couldn't hear any…- 305.8 K • Ongoing
Chapter 4 - Learn to Enjoy Pain Lu Yunwan bent his knees and held his blood-soaked right hand in front of Chu Xuanzhou’s eyes. He then slightly lifted his ring finger. It was the trading gesture used in the interstellar black market. The drainage system in the cell had long since drawn away the bloodied water, leaving only a faint, shallow red on the ground. At this moment, the merman was as lonely as one stranded ashore. Chu Xuanzhou said nothing. With tremendous difficulty, he raised…- 87.9 K • Ongoing
Anhe Bridge wasn't as desolate as the song made it out to be. Heading north, there were modest residential areas with plain white walls plastered with massive real estate advertisements. Nearby, there was also a small shopping center, not much different from the shooting range tucked away in the corner of Shijingshan. Gu Yiming wandered around the area, sensing a kind of mundane loneliness—and the deliberate clamor meant to counteract it. …It was incredibly noisy. The shooting range was noisy…- 63.1 K • Completed

Human strength had to be enhanced from the root. This experiment was an excellent opportunity. For the sake of living more comfortably after his staged death, it was very necessary to put in some effort now. —But as the “main villain,” Lu Yunwan would of course never admit that. He set down…

- Chapter 34 - Chu Xuanzhou Came to Understand the Allure of Power At that moment, Chu Xuanzhou’s heart was filled to the brim with fear. He saw the frenzied patient slam straight into Lu Yunwan. The human, who had no way to dodge in time, was sent crashing heavily against the silver-white wall of the medical center. Like a withered leaf in late autumn, fragile to the extreme. “Cough, cough, cough…” Lu Yunwan bent over, coughing violently. His already pale lips were once again stained…

- Chapter 33 - Lu Yunwan Stood in Front of Him Lu Yunwan was signaling Chu Xuanzhou not to speak. The starship’s resting cabin was exceedingly quiet. To the merman, whose hearing was abnormally sharp, the only sound left was the mingled rhythm of his own breathing and Lu Yunwan’s, weaving together in the stillness. With his eyes closed, it felt as though Lu Yunwan were right within reach. In the hazy starlight, he saw that as Lu Yunwan raised his hand, the black silk shirt slipped…

- Chapter 32 - An Emotion Called Jealousy Driven by a desire buried deep within his heart, Chu Xuanzhou wanted to gently cover Lu Yunwan’s eyes, to stop him from looking at anyone but himself. And he truly did move to act on it. Almost instinctively, he lifted his hand and slowly reached upward. Yet at that very moment, Lu Yunwan slowly closed his eyes instead. As though a weight had been lifted, he let his hand rest on Chu Xuanzhou’s shoulder. For that single instant, Lu Yunwan’s…

- Chapter 31 - “Only I Can Look at It Here.” The corners of Lu Yunwan’s eyes were faintly red, his breathing trembling with emotion. His slightly disordered breaths brushed against Chu Xuanzhou’s collarbone like warm ocean waves, colliding there without rhythm. The young man’s heartbeat was thrown into disarray as well. “But…” Chu Xuanzhou tried to speak. He seemed to want to continue fighting for himself. The Regent would not allow it. “Your Highness…” Lu Yunwan…
