    Absolutely brilliant writing, absolutely stunning! Though currently obscured by dust and unknown to the world, it will surely shine brightly one day! Why write martial arts in *The Assassination of Qin*? In the author's view, martial arts is the most authentic representation of people, the most authentic you and me! The author doesn't care about gods, Buddhas, demons, immortals, ghosts, monsters, mutated beasts, or the eternal heavens! Only cares about the generations of ordinary people struggling in this mortal world! Returning to the essence of humanity, *The Assassination of Qin* is a truly satisfying and enjoyable novel! A truly pure martial arts story. No harem, no system, no cheat codes, no time travel, no rebirth, no cultivation! A labor of love, dedicated to opening a new era for the people!

    The aftershocks of Mount Buzhou's collapse continued to spread across the primordial land, the energy of heaven and earth remaining chaotic. The once balanced Yin and Yang forces were shattered, and chaotic turbid energy continuously poured out from the cracks in the heavens and earth, permeating the entire primordial world. The Taiyin Star Palace, as the gathering place of Taiyin energy in heaven and earth, was originally a pure and sacred place, perpetually shrouded in moonlight and impervious to evil spirits. However, under the continuous erosion of the chaotic turbid energy, it was gradually polluted, and the pure Taiyin energy began to become turbid. Inside the palace of the Taiyin Star Palace, the moonlight remained cold, but a faint black mist had appeared—this was the chaotic turbid energy pouring in. The turbid energy permeated every corner of the palace, constantly eroding everything within. The once crystal-clear jade floor gradually lost its luster, becoming dull and lifeless; the once fragrant laurel tree's leaves gradually turned yellow and curled, losing their vitality; the once pure Taiyin divine power was also gradually polluted by the turbid energy, becoming murky and turbid. Those most deeply affected by the turbid energy were the Twelve Moon Maidens. Within each of them lay a pure and powerful lunar spirit, the core of the Yin energy, closely connected to the Yin Star Palace. When the Yin Star Palace was polluted by the turbid energy, their lunar spirits were inevitably eroded as well. Initially, the Twelve Moon Maidens only felt a slight stinging sensation in their lunar spirits and some sluggishness in their divine power, not paying much attention, assuming it was just a normal reaction to the disordered energy of heaven and earth. However, as time passed, the turbid energy continuously invaded their bodies, entwining around their lunar spirits, causing obvious abnormalities. The lunar spirit power within them gradually became chaotic, and the originally pure lunar spirit began to generate wisps of black mist—this was demonic energy. Demonic energy contained powerful corrosive force, not only polluting the lunar spirits but also eroding their minds, making their emotions extremely unstable. The first to show changes were the younger members of the Twelve Moon Maidens. They began to become agitated and easily angered. The once inseparable sisters now frequently argued over trivial matters, sometimes even resorting to physical fights. Their eyes became cloudy, losing their former purity, with a dark mist flickering in their depths, giving them an eerie aura. Chang Xi noticed her daughters' abnormality and was filled with anxiety. She tried to use her divine power to purify the turbid and demonic energy within them, but the corrosive power of the chaotic turbid energy was too strong. Although her divine power was pure, it was insufficient to completely purify the demonic energy within her daughters; she could only temporarily suppress its spread and alleviate their pain. But this was ultimately only a stopgap measure. As the turbid energy continued to pour in, the demonic energy within her daughters grew increasingly concentrated, and their minds became increasingly blurred. The youngest, Yue Nu, was the most deeply corrupted by the demonic energy. Her lunar essence was almost completely enveloped by demonic energy; the pure power of her lunar essence had long since vanished, replaced by powerful and malevolent demonic energy. That day, Chang Xi was purifying the demonic energy of the other Moon Maidens when she suddenly heard a fierce argument and screams coming from the inner room. Startled, she immediately dropped what she was doing and ran towards the inner room. As soon as she entered, she witnessed a scene that broke her heart: the youngest Moon Maiden was completely out of her mind, her eyes filled with black demonic energy, her gaze crazed and bloodthirsty. She had uncontrollably lunged at her older sister, gripping her shoulders tightly, and opened her mouth to devour the moon spirit on her sister's shoulder. The Moon Maiden being devoured was in excruciating pain, her body trembling uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face, emitting piercing screams. The other Moon Maidens stood by, their eyes clouded, their expressions numb, some even displaying eerie smiles, as if enjoying this cruel scene. The demonic energy within them was also spreading rapidly; their minds had long been corrupted by the demonic energy, losing their former rationality and familial affection. "Stop!" Chang Xi roared, rushing over and forcefully pulling the youngest Moon Maiden away from her sister. Even after being pulled away, the youngest Moon Maiden continued to struggle frantically, letting out beast-like roars as she tried to pounce on her sister's Moon Soul again, the demonic energy in her eyes growing ever stronger. The Moon Maiden who had been devoured collapsed to the ground, part of the Moon Soul on her shoulder eaten away, her body becoming extremely weak, her face as pale as paper, her eyes filled with fear and pain.

    I highly recommend these two books! The first one is hilarious—a body-swap, rebirth, and revenge story with a very exciting and engaging plot. Every character is well-developed and relatable, and even the supporting characters are well-developed. Everyone except the villains is likable! The second one is a completed historical romance with a rebirth and revenge theme. It's a slow-burn, engaging story with great suspense. It's incredibly captivating; trust me, sisters, you absolutely must read to the end! It's truly excellent! [Laughing emoji][laughing emoji]
