The Immortal Realm's Construction Contractor [Infrastructure Building]
仙界包工头[基建]
by I Love a Hearty Stew (喜欢大乱炖)
Synopsis
[This book is temporarily on hiatus for a major rewrite. It has not been abandoned, and I will definitely finish it! I started writing it too hastily and began making things up before I had thought them through, so I didn't do a good job of portraying the characters. I'm taking a break to revise it and present the story better. I'm also preparing a new book. If you're interested, feel free to add it to your favorites!]
[Intangible cultural heritage silk × cultivation worldbuilding × adored by everyone × 1v3 male rivalry love triangle × everyone is chaste]
A hidden powerhouse heroine who likes to play the fool but cares deeply for the world ×
A loyal, weepy hero who works hard every day to act mature and dependable
A gentle-looking childhood friend, the second male lead, who is actually a scheming green tea type
A gloomy, obsessive childhood betrothed, the third male lead, who thinks he isn't very calculating
Yun Shuci's family is destroyed from the start. Gravely injured and hunted by her enemies, she enters a city and pretends to be crazy and foolish.
As it happens, the city is being battered by torrential rain. Its infrastructure lies in ruins, and its people are suffering.
Yun Shuci takes one look.
What? The building collapsed?
No big deal. She's a construction boss!
But when she prepares to show what she can do, she's surrounded and mocked instead.
"You fool, you want to build a building? How long will it take you to finish one?"
Yun Shuci holds up one finger. "One second."
Everyone bursts into laughter. They whisper that the fool really is a fool, spouting nothing but outrageous boasts!
Then the building collapses again, and countless strands of silk pour from her sleeves, lifting the towering structure and transforming the decayed into the magnificent in an instant.
The Immortal Realm is shaken. Amid flashing lightning and rolling thunder, everyone rushes about, asking in awe:
What kind of divine being is this? How can anyone possess such miraculous skill?
Once they see who it is, they are stunned to learn that the Zhuhai line, rumored to be able to build with silk and stabilize the realm, still exists.
From then on, Yun Shuci, young mistress of Zhuhai, becomes famous throughout the world and gathers countless followers. Even Lu Zhaoyue, the lord of Tianming City, renowned for his maturity and composure, falls for her.
Lu Zhaoyue never imagined that the foolish girl he'd casually rescued would turn out to be the famed young mistress of Zhuhai.
She seemed like a goddess descended to earth. One look was enough to make him fall in love, and he could never forget her.
But her dazzling beauty attracts one admirer after another, leaving him restless and secretly anxious.
Amid the emerald-green mulberry trees, her childhood friend smiles, eyes full of provocation.
"The young mistress of Zhuhai and I grew up together. I'll always be the most special one to her."
Lu Zhaoyue silently vows: I'm the most special one.
In the pitch-black night, the boy she raised herself suddenly appears at her door, his gaze obsessive as he advances on her step by step.
"Sister, between him and me, you can only choose one."
Lu Zhaoyue grits his teeth and thinks: She'll definitely choose me.
He cuts ties with her childhood friend, then drives away the clingy boy.
But the young mistress's admirers keep springing up like weeds in spring, one after another.
To hold on to his position as her primary husband, he finally drops his calm, dignified facade, clings to her, and bursts into loud sobs.
"Promise me! You have to promise me! Even if you take another husband, I'll still be the primary one!"
Reading Guide and Content Warnings
[The hero falls in love in two chapters; the heroine falls for him over time. The male rivalry begins in Chapter Five. The infrastructure-building hasn't started yet.]
1. Original cultivation-world setting with infrastructure building, an ensemble cast, and a lighthearted romance. The political maneuvering is very elementary, so readers who care about logical consistency should proceed with caution.
2. The leads always care about the world. I don't know how to define a "saintly" heroine, and I don't think being one is an insult. If you find the story isn't for you, please stop reading.
3. There will be a male rivalry love triangle, but the other two men only have one-sided feelings. The leads are completely devoted to each other. No ship-breaking.
4. The heroine is strong from the start. Once her secret identity is revealed, things are mostly smooth sailing, with no angst. She isn't a heroine whose strength develops over the course of the story.

[Coming next: I Don't Care About the Dao, I Want a Wife [ABO]. Note: it's BL! BL!]
[Transmigrated from ancient times to the modern day × secret identity × love at first sight]
An arrogant but genuinely lucky, "delicate" scheming Alpha × a violent beauty Omega who's so responsible she'd poison herself by licking her own lips (both are chaste)
Xie Tianze was blessed with heavenly favor and was a once-in-a-century genius of the Heartless Dao, wanting for nothing since childhood and enjoying a smooth life.
Then he was struck by lightning while undergoing tribulation. When he opened his eyes, he was in an ABO world, his hand touching silky skin.
He sensed trouble, but before he could see the other person's face, he was kicked out of bed.
Immortal Xie: ??? Insolent wretch, how dare you disrespect me!
Then he saw the culprit's back, covered in red marks of varying shades, a shocking sight.
Xie Tianze's heart sank. He was a cultivator of the Heartless Dao, yet he'd broken his vows.
"You're useless, but I'll take responsibility for you."
Just then, the culprit turned around. Skin like ice and jade, a breathtakingly cool beauty.
Immortal Xie, who had been feeling thoroughly miserable, froze. His eyes locked on the beauty, his blood surged, and one thought filled his mind:
So all of this was meant to bring me together with my destined one!
Later, Xie Tianze learns that he's become the weakest Alpha in a supernatural organization, and that he and its top-ranked Omega, who was disguised as an Alpha, have formed a lifelong bond.
Looking at the beauty's complicated expression, he decides to keep playing the weakling and start a happy life of pushing his luck.
He follows the beauty home, takes over his bedroom, and pesters him to bring him along on missions.
When the beauty finally loses patience and tells him to get lost, he acts pitiful and sobs:
"I thought that since my husband said he'd take responsibility for me, he'd care about my feelings and protect me..."
Zhaoxue is the organization's most fearsome and powerful fighter, but an accident causes him to form a lifelong bond with Xie Tianze, the organization's last-place Alpha.
The end of the world could hardly be worse.
He looks at the Alpha, who howls for ages after getting no more than a scrape, and faces the situation with grim resolve.
He plans to keep the man safe at home while he goes on missions and shoulders the burden of providing for them. But the Alpha refuses to stop clinging to him.
"If you die on the road, I'm not saving you."
Zhaoxue never stops saying it, yet constantly watches out for the Alpha's safety.
After all, his Alpha is gentle, frail, and bruises purple at the slightest touch. Without him protecting him, who knows who might bully him?
Then one day, he catches his Alpha flying on a sword, striking down an enemy with a single swift blow.
Their eyes meet.
Xie Tianze hurriedly jumps off the sword and scrambles over to him.
"Husband, let me explain!!"
Zhaoxue: ^ ^
The Heavenly Dao, nearly scared out of its wits (in despair): You're cultivating the Heartless Dao! How can you break your vows on your own?!
Xie Tianze (with unwavering resolve): I don't care about the Dao, I want a wife!!!
Note 1: The story is from the top's perspective. Breaking his vows does affect his cultivation. The top chooses a wife over cultivation. Of course, he isn't actually weak, or his secret identity would be exposed. You'll see the details in the story~
Theme: Keep a humble heart and see through life's illusions. Better than praying to Buddha is to compete with all your strength.
