Secret Records of Huangzhou

Notice: 【Not a wish-fulfillment story, evenly matched leads, plot-driven, ensemble cast】【Read with care】【Detailed outline for 300,000 words】 The volumes are planned, with six in total. Each has its central characters and other characters. I don't like calling anyone a supporting character. They have their own stories, and they are the protagonists of those stories. The main plot follows two people saving each other as they work to break a deadly impasse. The early chapters are a little slow as they lay the groundwork. The story explores human nature, love, fate, and choice. Notice: This is a vast world, a game spanning ten thousand years. The first volume contains no throwaway lines: any sentence could foreshadow something later. An unequivocally female-led story, though not a wish-fulfillment heroine's tale. Best suited to readers who can slow down and savor it. Below is the Tomato-style synopsis: 【We are each other's cause and effect. Our love is an unsolvable loop.】 They all call me the Master of the Returning Dream Corridor, saying I can trade memories and overturn cause and effect. Those who come to me include an emperor with blood on his hands, a powerful official who has glimpsed fate, and a mermaid goddess torn between love and hate. Their obsessions are the fragments I use to illuminate the past. But they don't know two things: One: My clingy, devoted, godlike “younger brother” was once an ancient human emperor who burned everything for my sake. He has returned for one reason: to teach me what love is before I disappear forever. Two: I have been wandering here because, at the end of countless timelines, I planned my own death to give him a chance to survive. Now, the loop has begun. This time, will we repeat the same mistakes, or… shatter this accursed fate? This is a deadly impasse in the name of love. Welcome to this nuanced, slow-burning ensemble story where nobody is a supporting character.
