Southern Archives: From the Start, I Stand by Zhang Haiqi

Lu Chen transmigrates to Nanyang in the eighth year of the Republic and becomes a guide at the Southern Archives.

From the start, he and Zhang Haiqi, the archives' stunningly beautiful and famously aloof director, are trapped together in the illusion of an ancient temple's "Heart-Peering Mirror."

Zhang Haiqi bears the Zhang family's Mountain-and-Sea Curse. The cold poison has seeped into her bones, and the illusion is about to freeze her soul to pieces.

At the critical moment, Lu Chen awakens the Fateful Beauties System. The closer he gets to a beauty, the greater the rewards he receives!

To save her, Lu Chen decides to drop the act.

Zhang Haiqi grits her teeth: "Don't stop! Harder!"

Afterward, the aloof director blushes and threatens him: "If you dare tell anyone..."

Lu Chen gives a roguish smile. "I won't."

But then she comes right back to him of her own accord, asking for a second round.

From the rainforests of Nanyang to the Nine Gates inland, from the ancient city of Juejing to the Kunlun Shrine,

Lu Chen travels onward, winning them all along the way.

In this life, Zhang Haixia won't die before dawn, and Zhang Haiyan won't have to carry his close friend's corpse and walk alone.

The Nine Gates, the Four Sects, and every evil god tremble beneath Lu Chen's feet!
