   The first world is this one. The male lead is a monk. After the female lead dies, he realizes his love for her. Every world has a tragic ending (BE), but each one is incredibly good. I especially love that the female lead has no heart because she's inhabiting the body of the original owner, who was truly pitiful. I love how the female lead avenges those who hurt the original owner, and I also love the male lead's arduous pursuit of her, even though he can't keep her. If you love tragic endings, go for it!!!

   My darlings 😎, this is a traditional ancient romance novel, featuring a strong-willed, virgin couple, a strong male lead and a weak female lead, with the male lead pursuing the female lead later in the story. The male lead has an extremely possessive nature and has been planning this for a long time – this combination of traits is absolutely amazing 😱! The resilient and beautiful female lead, Qing Yan, is confined to a lowly position due to her father's crime and ends up in a brothel. High-ranking officials and nobles are eager to take advantage of her, but Rong Ji takes her into his household first 😜. He forces her to choose between being a concubine or a maid, and even if she chooses the latter, she can't escape being taken to his bed 😍. The male lead gradually rises to power, falling even more in love with the female lead. He's love-struck, while the female lead has the integrity of a scholar and isn't a naive, innocent character. The main plot is romance, with political intrigue as a secondary theme. It's a serious drama, not the typical strong-willed, virgin story – this plot is so captivating 😉! Please give it a like 👍, thanks 😁!

Those few days I was so hungry I went up the mountain to catch fish, but I didn't catch any. I did manage to catch a monk, though. After a while, someone told me that kissing a monk would extend my life by ten days. Wow! So what if I did *that* with the monk? So I kissed the monk, and incidentally, I even tricked him into coming down the mountain. And then my life's peak arrived.

   Bai Suzhen, unwilling to give up, tried several more times, each time being calmly told by Zen Master Fahai to return to his side with a single, unhurried "Come back." Finally, she realized that he had obtained a valuable treasure. Bai Suzhen sat cross-legged on the ground, extremely angry, feeling that even Buddhists used underhanded tactics, which was truly unethical. Little did she know, wasn't the Great Sage also bound and forced to go on his pilgrimage in the same way? Clearly, this kind of "virtue" was passed down through generations. After much fussing, Bai Suzhen finally relented. Lowering her eyelashes, she slowly approached Zen Master Fahai and said softly, "Zen Master Fahai, let's make a deal." What was there to discuss? Zen Master Fahai's belief in becoming a Buddha was as unwavering as Bai Suzhen's determination to lazily spend her days in the desolate Emei Mountain. Trying to negotiate with him? He was as stubborn as a donkey! Now that he had obtained such a treasure, there was no way he would let her go. Seeing that Fahai refused to budge an inch, Bai Suzhen's brows furrowed deeply. She stretched her legs together, thumping and tapping the ground intermittently. All the demons could see her agitation; she was clearly enraged. She leaned most of her body against the ground, supporting herself with only one arm. She raised her delicate hand, her thumb rubbing her long, freshly painted nails, and glared at him. "So there's no room for negotiation?" She said. Her eyes flashed, and the surrounding demons immediately understood, conjuring sharp blades and closing in. Fahai wanted to take Bai Suzhen away, but he'd have to see if her demons would give way. Mount Emei was teeming with mountain spirits and monsters; there were hundreds, if not thousands, of powerful ones. Not every demon possessed extraordinary magical abilities, and a group attack would be a considerable disaster. Master Fahai seemed to have anticipated this, and calmly used the bronze bowl in his hand to encircle him and Bai Suzhen. He then formed a mudra with his fingers, revealing a silver key, which was used to unlock the birdcage.
