Reborn before the game's closed beta, her first act was to force her brother to drink baijiu—to make him miss the chance to change his fate. This time, she will hide behind the scenes and seize all the opportunities: Game invades reality? She first grabs the closed beta qualification, drawing the [One-Man Party] talent—a free soul unbound by "nobility," using underhanded tactics and ruthless methods as she pleases; The protagonist group steals opportunities? She camps out in advance, pocketing all the treasure chests, items, and first-clear dungeons; No one knows that this lone wolf player is a ruthless character who has turned the "villain script" into a "lone wolf fantasy." When the rules of the game become the laws of reality, when the reborn person tears off the fig leaf of the "protagonist halo," Yu Xunxie's actions have only one logic: My life is in my own hands; your opportunities, I'll take them all. This is a no-romance, level-up-focused, feel-good novel, a lone wolf player's counterattack—game invasion? No, she invaded this game.

    [Urban Myths Explode! A God-Slaying Master Hides in a Mental Hospital; This Generation of Gods Is About to Be Purged by Humanity!] Beneath the neon-lit city, mythical monsters grind their teeth in the sewers; high on the moon, gods coldly overlook humanity—but you don't know that the "madmen" in the mental hospital are wielding god-slaying blades. This is the world of "I Learned to Slay Gods in a Mental Hospital": Human society harbors countless mysteries; in forbidden zones untouched by humankind, ancient gods slumber; and the gods of the Great Xia have long since vanished, "mystery" becoming a threat that must be eradicated. Who would have thought that those considered "mentally ill" are the only "god-slayers" who can see gods and monsters—they practice magic in the wards, slay demons in the corridors, turning the mental hospital into a "secret base" for god-slaying. When urban legends become reality, when mortals take up weapons and wield blades against the gods, this "god-slaying lesson in a mental hospital" is filled with passion and madness: The madmen you think are the last line of defense protecting humanity; the normal world you see has long been shrouded in the shadow of mythology. This is the best Chinese novel of 2023, the original work of the anime "Slay the Gods"—when the door of the mental hospital is pushed open, you will see: even gods should be afraid of people.

    Final Repentance: He traded half a lifetime of glory for a red ribbon by the reservoir in 1975. In a provincial capital hospital ward in 2025, the smell of disinfectant couldn't mask Wang Tiancheng's overwhelming despair. This entrepreneur, who had dominated the business world for over twenty years, lay on his sickbed, a withered shell. The will delivered by his lawyer was nothing but waste paper to him. In his final moments, half a lifetime of wealth and fame vanished like smoke, leaving only regret churning in his chest—he had won in the business world, but lost the person he should have cherished most in his life. In the instant the setting sun painted the sky red, his consciousness drifted back to the reservoir at dusk in 1975. That year, Huo Yafang was the most dazzling girl in the production team, the red ribbon on her long black braid swaying in the wind, making the young men's hearts tremble. To marry her, he didn't hesitate to stage a "heroic rescue," personally pushing her into the icy reservoir, then pretending to be fearless and jumping in to save her. This marriage, bought with scheming, ultimately became a nightmare for both of them. After the marriage, Wang Tiancheng became addicted to alcohol. When drunk, he would beat and kick Huo Yafang. When sober, he would be filled with endless regret, but he never stopped hurting her. In the end, he completely lost the girl with the red ribbon in her hair and the daughter he hadn't had a chance to properly love.
