1. 151 憨 The Foolish Third Lady’s Soul Guards the Wasteland 憨老三娘魂护荒地 A Maple Leaf Blown by the Wind枫吹一叶Urban164k WordsCompleted As soon as their mother dies, the eldest and second-eldest brothers divide up all the good farmland, leaving their simple-minded younger brother with three worthless plots of barren land that nobody wants. The villagers all say he’s a fool, the sort who counts the money for the person selling him. But no one notices the inexplicable force that seems to protect him, drifting over those three plots at night. After a rain, the young crops on Half-Stone Slope grow more vigorously than anyone else’s. 2Reads—Score—14d adds

   😎Ji Wuxiu is a mediator at the Inter-Universe Administration Bureau, originally tasked with resolving conflicts between the three major universes. However, a disastrous teleportation accident transports him to a strange cultivation world—here, the Hehuan Sect is a reputable sect, the young saintess is a succubus, and his senior brother's flying sword holds something extraordinary. Even more bizarrely, the composition of spiritual energy, the physiques of cultivators, and the methods of Core Formation are all quite different from what he knows about the cultivation world. Therefore, he decides to cultivate discreetly while secretly investigating the truth. Little does he know that he is gradually uncovering the deepest secret of this world—a shocking secret concerning the survival of the entire universe.
