[Comprehensive Worlds + Jian 3] This Broken World!

[The entire novel is undergoing a major revision. It has been reposted under a different account with the new title: How Can a Sickly Beauty Raise the Sword-Wielding Master in a Crumbling World? You can also search for the heroine's name, Lin Qianya.

The story is not permanently locked. It will remain locked for now, and I'll reopen it after I finish updating the current plot on my other account. I need some time to get the pacing right.]

I woke up one day to find that my amnesiac, white-haired beauty of a husband had suddenly remembered he was a swordsman from the Tang dynasty.

Before I could even process that, he and the bedding he was wrapped in...

TRANSMIGRATED! BACK! TO HIS OWN ERA!

My name is Lin Qianya, assassin of Wei (crossed out).

Oops, wrong story. Sorry.

I'm the only daughter of the current dynasty's chancellor, frail and sickly, but steady-minded.

There's always been something wrong with this crazy world.

First, the heir of Prince Nanan publicly broke off his engagement to me for a courtesan and called me a "sickly burden." Then a consort injured herself on a swing and had the entire palace staff beaten with canes.

The streets were full of people repeatedly "selling themselves to bury their fathers," and court discussions were as ridiculous as a child's game.

Ever since I picked up a white-haired, handsome man named Ye Ying on the road, covered in blood, amnesiac, and blind, my life had been rushing headlong in a direction that "even a storybook wouldn't dare write."

That's when I realized the world wasn't merely a little off. Two different eras had collided and shattered everything!

He caught the embroidered ball I threw and became my live-in husband. Every day, he either practiced swordsmanship or carved wooden hairpins for me.

For a while, I thought I'd found myself a quiet, handsome man.

Until one night, he suddenly recovered his memories and solemnly told me:

"My lady, I'm actually the master of the Hidden Sword Villa, and I come from the Tang dynasty, seven hundred years ago."

Me: "...Oh."

I calmly took a sip of my medicine, thinking this world really was starting to feel more and more like a domestic intrigue novel that had gone off the rails.

But I had no idea...

The craziest part was still to come.

For instance, three years into our marriage, my father-in-law, Ye Mengqiu, came to visit for the first time and shouted, "How dare you, Master Ye, run off to be a live-in husband? I'm going to break my handsome son's legs!"

What else could I do? Of course I had to step in. After a whole performance of sweet-talking, cajoling, and smooth maneuvering, I finally calmed the short-tempered old man down.

Then the little old man took a sip of the tea I served him, and before he could finish, he vanished along with his teacup.

I stood there holding an empty tea tray and turned to ask my husband in confusion:

"Husband... your father... left in quite a hurry, didn't he? Couldn't he stay for a meal?"

Ye Ying: "...Maybe he wasn't hungry."

Oh, right. I suspect transmigration runs in the Ye family. The kind you catch when you get married.

Because the next evening, just as my husband Ye Ying was taking off his shoes to go to bed...

The very next second, he was gone.

Wearing only his sleeping clothes, barefoot, his white hair tousled from sleep, he found himself in front of Tianze Hall at the Hidden Sword Villa, surrounded by his father and three younger brothers.

His father was distraught. "Where's my daughter-in-law?! Where's my grandchild?!"

Ye Ying was even more distraught. "I don't know! I didn't even put my shoes on!"

Meanwhile, I held our month-old daughter and blinked at the empty bed in front of me.

Then I calmly instructed the maid,

"Chunhua? Go find a Daoist priest. A monster has taken my husband."

Not long after that, I suddenly teleported from our little Ming-dynasty courtyard to the Hidden Sword Villa several hundred years in the past.

A group of disciples pointed their swords at me and dragged me into the main hall of the Hidden Sword Villa. My father-in-law, that little old man, was dumbfounded, then flew into a rage and roared,

"This is the First Madam! What do you think you're doing?!"

Oh... I guess this is what happens when family members attack their own family.

But I didn't have time to worry about that. I finally broke down and shouted, holding my little girl:

"My son is still back in the Ming dynasty! How is my unreliable second brother supposed to take care of him?!"

The most incredible part was my second uncle, Ye Hui, who had been left behind in the Ming dynasty.

He was forced to swap places with me, and found himself staring in confusion at my son, Ye Hao, lying in the cradle with an icy gaze.

Ye Hao had been the Sword God Ye Gucheng in his previous life. In this life, he was a baby who refused to drink milk and spent every day scolding people with his eyes.

He had been reborn for just one month, and already had to deal with his father disappearing, his mother disappearing, his little sister disappearing, and a strange uncle claiming to be his second uncle.

Ye Hui shakily offered him a bowl of rice cereal.

"Good nephew, do your second uncle a favor and have a bite?"

Ye Hao: "..."

His eyes said: Stupid old man, stay away from me. Give me back my parents and little sister.

And my transmigrator biological father, seeing Ye Hui for the first time, had a storm of thoughts racing through his mind:

Lin Chengze stared at Ye Hui, who looked about seventy percent like Ye Ying but had a sharp, capable air about him, and screamed internally:

"Isn't that an NPC from the Hidden Sword Villa in Jian Wang 3?! How did he get out of the game?"

But outwardly, he forced himself to stay calm. "You must be Ye Hui?"

Ye Hui cupped his hands. "That is correct."

Lin Chengze: "..."

My daughter married an NPC, oh my god!!!

Well, I made a list.

A husband who transmigrated from the Tang dynasty, a father-in-law who disappears at random, a chancellor father who transmigrated from the modern world, a son who is Ye Gucheng reborn, a daughter with the Three Yin Reversed Meridians, and a second uncle who swapped places with me and just stares at my son in confusion.

Is there anyone normal in this entire family besides me????

Now our whole family is stuck bouncing back and forth between two different eras.

I keep resetting everyone's worldview, Ye Ying keeps accidentally revealing who he is, Ye Mengqiu disappears at random, Ye Hui is forced to babysit, and my chancellor father keeps having meltdowns.

Lin Qianya clutched her daughter and shouted at the sky:

"Daoist priest from Pure Yang who always shows up at the worst possible moment to get people killed...

Could you at least give us a schedule for when people are going to transmigrate?!"

She really can't keep this broken world running any longer!

[Reader's Guide]

1. The heroine is a local, but extremely calm. Her husband Ye Ying transmigrated from the Tang dynasty, her father from the modern era, her son, Ye Gucheng, from the late Ming dynasty, and her father-in-law, Ye Mengqiu, transmigrates at random. Her daughter is frail but tough. The main attraction is one chaotic, time-hopping family bundle.

2. This is not a domestic intrigue novel. The main plot involves the Ming dynasty's court and martial world, with a later crossover with Jian Wang 3. The logic holds up, but the tone is silly. It's all about a normal person living in an abnormal world.

3. The romance is a slow burn, with a slight marriage-first, love-later feel. At first, duty and gratitude are intertwined. Later, their souls resonate and they become true partners.

4. Daily updates continued until my 250,000-word backlog ran out. After that, updates may be doubled depending on circumstances. I'm writing this for love. The novel is free and unsigned, unless I switch accounts.

5. The early plot moves extremely quickly and isn't compressed. The male and female leads won't interact and grow closer until after they get married. The plot has an old-school feel. The heroine isn't a typical strong female lead, but has a strong inner core. Lin Daiyu's exterior, Zhao Min's spirit.

6. This is a fantasy setting mixed with Jian Wang 3 fanfiction, with a bit of Ye Gucheng as a character. It's a reverse crossover. You don't need to have played the game to enjoy it. Aside from the worldbuilding, most of the plot is original. Later on, the main attraction is tormenting the master of the Hidden Sword Villa and leaning into absurdity.

7. The character art is of the heroine, drawn by me. I've sketched the male lead, and I'll replace it once I finish the drawing.

8. I'll revise the story extensively when I come back to it. If you spot any bugs, please leave a comment. The novel underwent major changes later on, so there may be many inconsistencies with the earlier chapters.

9. The whole novel is free and unsigned. I'm not thin-skinned, but please go easy when offering criticism. Thank you.

10. The bonus chapters' alternate timeline is currently being updated...
