Xu Chun picked up his brush and, following Li Meiyai's suggestion, casually sketched a few strokes of a lotus flower swaying in the wind and half a lotus leaf. A servant promptly took it away. Most of the other guests were writing poems, but the other Daoist simply sat there unmoved. Soon, the inner chamber's pearl curtain rustled slightly, and a girl with two buns sauntered out. She wore a pale yellow gauze blouse, her features still youthful, and she bowed deeply, "Esteemed gentlemen, your elegant…- 643.5 K • Completed
- Li Meiya soon met the Emperor. Kneeling there, he could hardly believe that merely meeting with the Prince's late concubine had drawn the attention of the Imperial Guard, and now even the Emperor himself was interrogating him. Xie Yi hurriedly walked in, wearing his dark dragon robe. With a sweep of his robes, he sat down, glanced at Li Meiya, and asked, "Speak. I have no patience." Li Meiya was bewildered. "Your Majesty has been sending people to follow Chu Wei?" Xie Yi sneered. "I'm…

Although he was said to be in a weaker category than dealers or tanks, Yohan was still a high-level awakener, and his broken arm healed completely in less than a week. When he cautiously unwrapped the splint and tested his arm, there was no more pain. Before setting off, Yohan packed several days’ worth of food and medicine into his backpack. Just as he stepped out the front door, Lee Hyunmook pointed to the old cart he had brought back from the supermarket and asked casually, “Want me to push you…- 297.5 K • Completed
- Xu Chun slept deeply, and when he woke up, the sun was high and bright outside his window, well past noon. He asked Wufu about the Emperor's schedule and learned that the Emperor had already finished his court session, seeing that Xu Chun was still asleep, and didn't disturb him. Instead, he returned to the Imperial Study for a brief rest and then summoned the Grand Secretariat for a meeting. Xu Chun felt uneasy, asking Wufu about the events at court and what happened to Minister Li. Wufu replied, "I…

- Zhuang Zhan left the palace in a daze. The next day, indeed, people came to ask him about the joint petition, but he merely shook his head and remained silent, refusing to leave his residence. Some well-informed individuals heard that his performance evaluation had been marked "mediocre" by the current emperor, and whispers began to circulate. Some reveled in his misfortune, while others who had befriended him in the past felt indignant on his behalf. But seeing him maintain his composure and elegance…

‘It’s an unfamiliar concept, but mental factors can have a huge effect on the body.’ Aeryl believed that the mind and body were more closely connected. The fact that emotional states were reflected so clearly in pheromones supported that idea—it wasn’t baseless speculation. ‘Could the irregular pheromone production and inability to recognize his own scent be tied to the Grand Duke’s psychological state?’ If so, it was a difficult problem. Who would willingly accept being told there…- 279.4 K • Completed
- ‘I barely walked a little, but I’m already tired.’ It had been a while since Aeryl had dressed up and worn something that showed off his figure, so he became overly conscious of his posture and gait. Because he was so mindful of it, he felt overwhelmed by the way everyone’s eyes seemed to follow him. He hadn’t been this aware of it before, so the feeling struck him anew. ‘Wearing this really makes me stand out.’ If he wanted to stay hidden, it was better to dress plainly. No matter…

Before his regression, he’d been timid and scared—too much so to use his full ability. The result back then? Grade A. It was a high enough rank, and since Jiho hadn’t cared much about grades, he never tried to revise it. But things were different now. Jiho might be a little nervous, but he wasn’t afraid or holding back. If he didn’t deliberately suppress it, hitting S-rank wasn’t out of the question. “You can begin now,” came the researcher’s voice. Jiho didn’t…- 289.6 K • Completed
- Shen Mo was drunk. It was February 4th, the beginning of spring, and also Ji Mingxuan’s birthday. Since they had reunited on S Island, Ji Mingxuan arranged time off this year to revisit the place with Shen Mo. This time, they stayed in a sea-view villa with a private pool. Sunshine, beach, coastline, candlelit dinner… everything was perfect. The only thing Ji Mingxuan had not anticipated was how poorly Shen Mo handled alcohol. Just two glasses of red wine and he was already drunk. Thankfully,…

The knights looked at me strangely when I suddenly changed my mind, but they took me back to the temple anyway. Even in the stillness of late night, the temple building glowed faintly blue. The streets were quiet, and only the gatekeeper stood at the main gate, exuding a heavy presence. I suddenly felt so small and insignificant. The holy knights stood a little distance away rather than greeting the gatekeeper, as if they expected me—their charge—to explain the situation myself. ‘They’re…- 183.7 K • Completed
