Wonderful, no tricks! The novels written by Kai Zhongkan began with the first "The Road to Feng Shui Cultivation", then the second "One Man and One Mouse Want to Cultivate Immortality", and after finishing it, he wrote "The Journey of Mecha to Immortality, Invincible from Exile on Mars". The three books are now completed. The three books are combined into a Cultivation of Immortality series, which can be called the Cultivation of Immortality Trilogy. Now, he has started writing again. This time he is not writing about cultivating immortals.

287 平 Ping's Wife Enters the House? I Turned Around and Married the Regent, the Crown Prince in the Capital. Lou XiaoqiAncient Romance1.5M WordsCompleted 4kReads7.4Score201Shelves

Reader note

I just finished watching "The House of Blood" and it has so much stamina that I must give it a try at Amway! This is the typical setting of "everyone is killed in the beginning, and everyone is in power at the end", but the author wrote it very solidly. I particularly like the description of "dislocation of identity": the younger sister lives under her elder sister's name, not only to avenge her sister, but also to live like her sister should be. This kind of "resurrection"-like revenge is more exciting than simply crushing the force value. Moreover, the emotional line of this book is handled very refreshingly. The male protagonist is not a savior, but more like a comrade fighting side by side. What touches me the most is the sentence: "This blood in the house is not my shackles, but my battle flag." If you are fed up with those old sayings about falling in love and ruining your life, and want to read some power-driven novels about women helping each other, IQ online, and swords and swords, this book is definitely one of the best in recent ancient sayings. It is recommended to watch it at night, because once you start, you won't be able to put it down! 🌙📖
