(It’s recommended to subscribe chapter by chapter rather than buying the whole novel at once.)] [New serial: How a Little Healer Saved the Fuzzy Ones] Xu Sili died an untimely death at a young age. When he woke up again, he discovered... not only was he still alive, he had become the new ruler of an empire in another world. The empire was in a terrible state, constantly threatened with annihilation by alien beasts. At that moment, he was sprawled across the emperor’s golden throne. Standing before him was a handsome man in a white military uniform. The man wore black boots that reached his knees. He planted one firmly on Xu Sili’s chest, curled his lips into a cruel, bloodthirsty smile, then pressed a laser gun to his forehead. “Die, new emperor,” he said. W-Wait a second! When Xu Sili got a good look at the man’s face, he was completely stunned. Why did this guy look so much like the Marshal character he had raised in his mobile game? Huh? That gorgeous uniform he was wearing was the reward for a mission Xu Sili had spent ages grinding to complete! - Si Sheng had a secret no one knew: he could hear the voice of a god. While everyone around him was infatuated with the princess, he knew that everything the princess had was a gift from the god. The one who had truly saved him from the slave owner Was that great god! The god was mysterious and powerful, with the most captivating voice in the world. Night after night, that voice stirred his heart, leaving him lovesick and unable to sleep. He wanted to see the god so badly, he was nearly driven mad. At last, one day the god asked him: What would he do if the god appeared before him? Si Sheng dropped to one knee and humbly offered his loyalty. Only then did he finally understand that what he felt for this god had grown into something more... something far more ambitious. A story about transmigrating to another world and rebuilding a home hand in hand with one’s own game character. Reader’s guide: 1. The player beta test begins in Chapter 51, and there are plenty of people who are just here for the fun. The romance takes up a significant portion of the early story (the identity reveal happens around Chapter 30). After the first hundred or so chapters, the story is mostly plot. Readers who don’t like romance can start with the beta test. 2. This isn’t pure Western fantasy. It’s set on a magical civilization’s planet, on the brink of destruction, after it is discovered by a technological civilization. The inhabitants struggle to survive. 3. Volumes labeled “Extra” follow the main story’s timeline. “Special Episodes” are an alternate future timeline for Book Two, If Sinuo Really Had Been Killed, in which the protagonist is revived and fixes the timeline that the Fourth Calamity wrecked. Only the entries labeled “Extra” are on the main timeline. The special episodes are lengthy, so readers can choose whether to read them. ●●●●● [COMPLETED WORKS] ●●●●● The Little Monsters Couldn’t Possibly Be This Well-Behaved!

Every day after school, he helps out and watches the shop. One afternoon, his parents went out to restock, leaving him alone in the store. The older boy from next door came over to help him with his homework. “Bang!” Suddenly, the store’s door shut by itself. Tang Yu’an got up to open it.

As a fan of sightseeing and leisurely exploration, he loved traveling far and wide, exploring obscure corners of the world and hunting for treasure. The map in Cultivation Era was enormous. Even with several hundred million players flooding in, there were still countless secluded paradises where no one would disturb him. Unfortunately, while exploring a hidden immortal residence, he lost his footing and fell into a vortex. When he woke up, he had become an NPC The good news was that he had become the senior disciple and acting head of the hidden sect, Cloudshadow Sect. The bad news was that he was the only disciple in the entire sect. His master, Dao Ying, had gone into seclusion to cultivate and might not emerge for thousands of years. That made Zhou Yunyi the acting sect leader, which was basically the same as inheriting the whole sect! The sect had nothing but two mountains and was so poor it might as well have been ringing hollow. And under his care were one, two, three, four, five, six, seven... seven little turnip-heads waiting to be raised! Fortunately, he had transmigrated a thousand years before the game’s official launch. He had plenty of time to build up the sect and grow its strength. Most importantly, he knew where countless unclaimed treasures were hidden, and could dig them all up and make them his own! - Zhou Yunyi went treasure hunting all over the place. Then, while digging, he unearthed an exceptionally handsome man and accidentally contracted a love curse. The two of them had to become cultivation partners and practice dual cultivation for forty-nine days, or the curse would take effect, making their blood sear and their hearts ache. Looking at the other man’s cold, handsome face, Zhou Yunyi found it more and more familiar. Finally, it hit him. Wasn’t this the co-ruler of immortals and demons, who had topped the player popularity rankings for years, renowned for both his looks and his strength... what was his name again? Zhou Yunyi had never imagined he’d have anything to do with such a popular NPC, so he’d never bothered to remember the man’s name. The other man began to undress. Zhou Yunyi suddenly blushed. Ah... Are we really, really going to practice dual cultivation? Th-That doesn’t seem quite appropriate (*/▽*) Theme: Building wealth and developing the country
