How to Reject Love as a Queen

[Main story complete, extras being released]

Fate once carved a blade into my throat, leaving me with nowhere to be buried.

Adele, describing her past life

As queen, she ruled the Roland Empire with great skill, only to end up sent to the guillotine.

At the moment of her rebirth, she learned that

After her death, the struggle for the throne would tear Roland apart, and the empire's glory would be destroyed. All she would leave behind was a single line in the history books: "She was a capable ruler, but could not withstand fate."

Back on the night of the coup, the queen gazed at "the fate that could not be withstood" and sneered.

Later

Those who had betrayed her became devoted to her throne as if bewitched:

The knight who had once been loyal but dismissive now begged to die in battle for her.

The hypocritical noble searched the whole world himself for gems to give her.

The bishop who hated heretics bowed down to her and abandoned his faith.

They waged war for her, wrote her thousands of lines of love letters, and never forgot her, in life or death.

The queen, debauched in appearance but cold as iron within, sat high upon her throne. "Hmph."

*

"You will never find another woman like her. She was alluring, mad, and ambitious, charming yet ruthless."

This was the conclusion of the imperial history books when describing Emperor Adele's life.

Notes:

1. A no-holds-barred diversionary story, with a love rivalry.

3. The queen is truly ruthless, a femme fatale. The queen conquers the world.

"A Sword Cultivator with Money Is So Annoying"

[I usually write stories about turning the tables against the odds and striking back from the brink of defeat. I want to relax with a max-level character this time, so please don't yell at me, darlings.]

Nine out of ten sword cultivators are poor, and the last one is especially poor.

...Oh, no, that doesn't include Jun Changxiu.

She's an oddity among sword cultivators.

Her sword's hilt is made of winter-blooming wood, its blade of Eight Wastes Suppression Stone, and its scabbard of East Sea dragon hide.

Her cloak is made of peacock feathers, its clasp is a Golden Crow's eye, and her skirt is woven from silkworm silk from the far north.

You couldn't find anyone richer than her in the entire cultivation world.

And what's more!

She has no partner, no disciples, and doesn't belong to a sect.

At first, all sorts of demons and monsters see her and think, "What a huge walking treasure vault!! This road is mine to plunder!"

Later, after being beaten black and blue, they kneel before her in tears and call her Daddy.

Everyone racks their brains trying to figure out where on earth such a vicious, merciless woman came from.

Then, on the day the Great Wilderness appears, they finally remember

The first immortal of ancient times was said to be a woman.
