The black shadow was denser than the night, blotting out the sky and earth like a real mountain range. Yet, it was not lifeless; instead, it was restless, exuding a chilling aura that inspired fear. Zhang Xiuqi's reaction was swift—a Yellow Talisman was already flying from his hand, aimed at the shadow. However, the shadow moved faster than expected, and in the blink of an eye, the two were completely engulfed in darkness. Wei Yang hadn't anticipated this. His vision was now pitch black, and even the…- 380.6 K • Completed
Jingguo Duke Xu Anlin learned of Li Meiyao's impeachment against him only when he received the imperial reprimand. He was completely stunned. After kneeling to listen to the decree, his face drained of color, and with blurred vision, he accepted the edict. He wanted to give silver to reward the eunuch, but the eunuch refused to accept it, looking as cold as ice, as if avoiding a plague god as he left. Xu Anlin returned home in a daze, only to be met with another scolding from Lady Sheng. "You've…- 643.5 K • Completed
Tom was energetically bouncing around as if practicing boxing, his eyes scanning the surroundings as he whispered to Mo Zimu, "Hatch drank that little cup of whiskey again." Mo Zimu smiled, and Tom continued, "Why let Hatch drink, huh?" Mo Zimu didn’t reply. Instead, he bent down and plucked a handful of purple flowers, bringing them to his nose for a brief inhale. Then, he opened his hand, letting the petals scatter into the wind. "Would Mammon send sick prisoners for medical treatment?" Mo…- 117.3 K • Completed
- Rong Qing took out a box and opened it, revealing an antique Byzantine ring. After a brief silence, he said, "I never told you, but I actually won this ring at an auction." Mo Zimu’s gaze fell on the ring, its surface engraved with a matrimonial scene from the Holy Land. The intricate narrative style was rare, except in Byzantine rings, like a slowly unfolding epic cast in metal. The first time he had seen it was at an auction in Italy. Half-jokingly, he had told Rong Qing, If someone gave him this…

Bian Ji swore he would never drink water while chatting again. Hearing Yan Ankuo's words, he nearly started coughing again. Yan Ankuo handed him a few tissues, helping him clean up the water on the table in front of him. Bian Ji said "thank you" while urging Nie Hang to take his seat quickly. "Brother Nie," Bian Ji said helplessly, "I've only met Yan today for the third time, give me some face." He was afraid Yan Ankuo might think he had some ulterior motives, so he deliberately made it clear…- 135.4 K • Completed
Chapter 13: Unable to Swallow On the second day of the sports meet, a morning rain did little to dampen the students' spirits; their cheers shook the sky. Li Tang traded a bag of snacks for an hour of coverage from a fellow announcer. As he called out over the broadcast, "Students participating in the men's long jump, please gather at the southeast corner of the field," he carried a sealed bottle of water and headed that way. The broadcast station was located right in the middle of the field,…- 197.1 K • Completed
The fifth floor of the Central Tower, the conference room. Ten men still sat in a circle. Officer A crossed his legs and gestured at The Swordsman with the spine of his notebook: "Same order as last time. Let's begin." The Swordsman glared at him, his eyes brimming with the rebellious defiance of youth: "Everyone already spoke last time. Why make us do it again?" "Last time," A replied with the cold arrogance of a high-ranking Party member, "you talked about your roles on the Island of Saints. This…- 103.8 K • Completed
Fang Zheng swept aside the tattered biscuit wrapper and picked up the promotional calendar beneath it, glancing at it to confirm he hadn't misremembered—it was April. The most recent Valentine's Day had passed less than two months ago. Two months ago, Mirage Server had already become Orchid TempleThe name of the haunted temple from "A Chinese Ghost Story." (It was a ghost server even back then). So Polly had done the Valentine's quest with the female ghost? Of course, that wasn't impossible. Even the…- 509.5 K • Completed
- Due to his overly excited and saliva-spewing tirade, when Zeng Jingxuan walked back into the ward, the old swindler couldn't stop himself in time. His old face twisted comically for a few seconds before he let out a groan and slumped back onto the hospital bed, plastering on an ingratiating smile. "Master Zeng… Uh… Look at us here…" Zeng Jingxuan ignored him and instead turned his gaze to the young man sitting to the side. Wei Yang didn't speak but merely smiled and nodded. Everything was…

- Beyond the glass window, the sky was bright, while within the room, the aroma of medicine lingered. Donghai carefully heated an acupuncture moxa stick to a red glow, swiftly applying it to Xie Yi's Fengchi and shoulder acupoints. This was the moxibustion treatment prescribed by Doctor Zhou Biao, which took about half an hour each time. Xie Yi had his outer robe completely unfastened, revealing his slender body. The smooth, fair skin, after being treated with the hot moxa stick, was left with speckles…
