Anthology of Short Stories: Historical Romance
Something like *Crossing the River as a Demon Immortal* or *The Demon Oracle*. It absolutely has to match the settings of both books! Thanks!!!

Any Books Like The Hundred Demons Spectrum?

I can't get through more than a few chapters of most novels. They make me cringe so hard. Please recommend some with smoother writing.

From Yaoxiandu to Yaoyance, the general background is the Six Realms and Five Realms, but the two books are like two eras, or parallel spaces. Each space has things that happen in each space. These things are relatively independent and interrelated, and together they unfold a big world. And the stories here are very touching, making people cry and laugh sometimes. All in all, I like the author's stories and his writing style. I hope to see more similar works from the author in the future. Refill ❤
A very good collection of short essays. I read two of them in a row. The author's writing style is delicate and not procrastinating, and the short essays connect an atmospheric story background. I hope I can continue writing.
My God, this book is so good. Each article has an independent male and female protagonist, but! ! ! They are connected to each other. Jue Juezi😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I like this kind of short article very much. Each chapter is not long, but each chapter is connected in series. , Not verbose, very nice
It's good-looking, very similar to Bai Ling Tan, Yao Yan Ce. When I read the title, I thought it was about demons, but later I saw it was about demons and immortals. The end of each short story will be connected with the beginning of the next, the past and present lives of demons and immortals, and the reincarnation of fate. Attractive
①My feelings about "Yao Yan Ce": There are eight stories in total, which tell the touching love stories in the six realms. Yu Zhi'an, who paid the world a great righteousness, and the love who met in the underworld for thousands of years. Ling Ali, Chixi Linfeng who accompanies her husband fearlessly in the wind and snow, Kangting Anqing who stays with her through hardships and joys, Liao Zhenhuayun who was a childhood sweetheart, and the autumn Suzhi, who has experienced all the hardships in the world, and the fate of marriage. Zhang Yan Yan Han, who was in love with each other, and Yousi Zhao Zhao, who was the most unforgettable for me. I couldn't think of a set of words to describe it when I wrote this 😭😭, the evocative love, the sinister palace, the simple, innocent, cute and a little silly thoughtful Zhao Zhao, who cared about the common people, finally lost Yousi. Anyway, this is really the saddest story I have read in the two books. ② Regarding the author's "Yao Xian Du" and "Yao Yan Ce": I read "Yao Xian Du" first, and then read "Yao Yan Ce". The two books are like two parallel planets in parallel time and space, with the same setting. They are in the same six realms, with different stories of different people happening. I think some cuties are struggling with some of this book. In fact, you don't have to be too entangled with the characters in the book. You can just treat them as two worlds. There is no need to connect them together. Just enjoy reading. Of course, it is not the author's say whether this is a parallel time and space. It is my own opinion. I hope you don't criticize me. "The Fairy Crossing" is also very interesting. ③ I'm still sad. Although 70% of this book has a happy ending, it really describes the dangers of human nature, the beauty of the characters, the simplicity and kindness of the world, and the ordinary and extraordinary life. I feel so uncomfortable now, and I'm still thinking about it and can't finish it. I'm crying😭😭😭😭😭
I became interested in the author after watching "Yao Xian Du" and came to read "Yao Yan Ce". I was able to write each story so touchingly, which is beyond my expectation. The characters are interspersed between the stories. They are both the protagonists in their own stories and the supporting characters in other people's stories. This is the reason why each character appears multi-faceted and three-dimensional. Under the Lanshan Bridge, Yuzhi and Laner gave up on each other for the sake of the common people and finally broke the rules of heaven and achieved perfection. Kangting was willing to give up his eyes for his Qingqing and finally got a good match. The chance of Huangquan when they were young made Mu Ziqi and Qingling's long-term marriage. Yousi and Zhao Zicong redeemed each other. Many comments said that it was hard to forgive, but Maybe this is life, it may not be perfect everywhere, and Shi Qiu Su Zhi, who has gone through all the sufferings of mortals, will turn into Yan Han and Yu Zhangyan and fall in love with each other in the next life... Every story may not necessarily have a happy ending, but every relationship does make people cry. I look forward to more and better works from the author, and it will not be a loss if you invest in it!
I like this book very much. The stories are all wonderful. It doesn't make people impatient. The more I read, the more I like it. The more I read, the more I want to know what happens next and the ending. Of course, I like it more because of the good ending. The words used to connect the plot from beginning to end can capture people's hearts and make the readers' hearts rise and fall. I like it very much. I like it. Like it.
I came here after watching "Yaoyandu", it is as good as ever. Although they are all short stories, they are all warm and lively, and the writing is interesting and vivid. Each character in them is very vivid, and each story is cleverly related. The protagonist of the previous story will be the supporting role of the next story or the introduction to promote the development of the story. Then, poor Yue Lao Chaojiu connects the stories from beginning to end, stringing together the good stories about immortals, monsters, and mortals in the storybooks he wrote. It is cruel to think about this, and it is hard to calm down, but it is also the most real, the most sincere love is true, and the most helpless reality is also true. In short, these stories make people feel as if they have gone through seven tribulations, tasted all the ups and downs, but they also bring light, hope and a hint of sweetness. They are memorable and worth recommending!
It's a book that I can't bear to finish, but every time I stay up late to read each story because it's really good. Dear author, please come up with a thoughtful little side story, give me some candy, and resolve the common disagreements that everyone has, or else I will never give you a five-star review [laughing and crying]
