[Neighboring Serial: A Modern-Era Romance Variety Show with the Heir] A sweet historical-to-modern story
1. In the age of the Interstellar Federation, the nations joined forces to fight the Evil God and suffered a crushing defeat. They planned to offer young women to the Evil God in hopes of making peace.
Xuan Yi was one of the unlucky women chosen as tribute.
In a magnificent temple, she met the Evil God, whose name alone had terrified countless powerful figures across the Federation Empire.
A young man sat upon the divine throne, gazing down at everyone with an air of noble authority, sinister detachment, and cold indifference. He said nothing, yet his presence alone was enough to cow the entire hall.
The Evil God's people believed the Federation's offer of women was merely a ploy to buy time, and wanted to kill them all. But the Evil God refused.
The women were then sent to the Evil God's home: a primeval forest.
2. In a pool deep in the forest, Xuan Yi found a dragon rolling around in the water because it couldn't scrub its own scales.
She gave the dragon a bath, and in return received a gift of food.
Later, when extraterrestrial creatures invaded, the Evil God's clan leader came to confront them.
Xuan Yi watched the gluttonous, silly dragon she'd been fleecing for food for ages transform into the same noble, sinister Evil God she'd seen in the temple.
Xuan Yi: Is it too late to run?
3. Xuan Yi became the Evil God's bride. Everyone thought that, as a mere human, she was nothing more than a tool for the Evil God to produce heirs.
Until, one day, the Evil God was framed and fell into the Godslayer Valley, where he barely survived.
The Evil God's people planned to elect a new leader. According to their rules, the previous leader's widow had to die for him.
Xuan Yi, forced to follow him in death, walked out of the Evil God's cave with a great blade in hand. With one stroke, she severed the temple's central pillar. With another, she split open Godslayer Valley. Then she leaped into the air and vanished into the horizon.
Not long afterward, the Evil God returned in the form of a divine dragon, carrying his bride on his back.
# That aloof Evil God is actually a lovable airhead
# Do not disturb a dragon while it's bathing, or face the consequences
# Never underestimate an ordinary human. Her blade can split your skull
A gluttonous, silly dragon who's ridiculously powerful yet adorably clueless VS a dragon-taming expert who's calm on the outside and even calmer within
1. An interstellar setting with major species, farming, a bit of mythology, a bit of technology, and all kinds of personal inventions thrown together in one big stew. My own take on an interstellar cultivation world (not really).
2. As usual, the story focuses on romance and farming. Partway through, it shifts to a plot involving schemes between species. The author's intelligence is limited, so just enjoy the ride. Everything serves the plot.
3. A sweet romance, no leveling up.
Upcoming novel
A Modern-Era Romance Variety Show with the Heir
Xiao Liwei, heir to the Prince of Zhenbei, had always defied convention and lived by his own rules. No one in Chang'an dared cross him, and he had yet to marry even by the age of twenty. Rumor had it that no young lady would dare marry him.
Jian Shushu had secretly loved the heir to the Prince of Zhenbei for years. No one knew.
The most renowned matchmaker in the capital was going gray with worry over the heir's marriage. When she learned that the eldest legitimate daughter of the Jian family was both beautiful and talented, unmarried, and that her birth mother had once been close friends with the late princess consort, she personally paid the family a visit. After going to great lengths, she arranged the marriage.
But on the wedding day, the heir fled. Assassins intercepted the bridal sedan, and Jian Shushu was struck by an arrow. When she opened her eyes again, she had traveled to the modern era.
When she awoke, she discovered that the heir had traveled there with her.
At twenty-two, Xiao Liwei regained the memories of his previous life. After opposing his grandfather for two lifetimes, he decided to listen to him for once.
But when his grandfather called him home, he learned that the old man had arranged a marriage for him without asking, and had already brought the bride-to-be to the house.
Remembering the girl from his past life, the one he'd been engaged to and who had died in his arms on their wedding day, Xiao Liwei had developed a deep aversion to marriage. He would rather remain alone than be engaged to anyone again.
He turned to leave, but then saw a girl coming down the stairs. She looked exactly like the woman who had been his bride-to-be in his previous life.
Xiao Liwei stopped in his tracks.
# If she's my fiancée from my previous life, I suppose it's not out of the question
# After all, things should have a proper ending

Hoping to help the pair grow closer, Grandpa secretly signed them up for an unscripted reality show called A Diary of Love.
On the show, the other male contestants went shopping with their girlfriends, kept them from eating junk food, volunteered to do the housework, and picked out their clothes and accessories before they went out. Netizens called them the perfect boyfriends.
Meanwhile, Xiao Liwei stayed up gaming the night before, then watched Jian Shushu do exercises during the day with bleary eyes. He ordered takeout at mealtimes, snacked constantly, and couldn't do housework.
The other male contestants took their girlfriends hiking to watch the sunrise, sweetly showing off their affection.
Xiao Liwei had Jian Shushu practice horse stances and spear forms, sweating under the blazing sun.
At first, netizens thought Xiao Liwei was the most outrageous, most awful boyfriend imaginable.
Later, as the other male contestants revealed their true colors, including being overly controlling and chauvinistic, and making such narrow-minded comments as girls should wear long skirts, act like ladies, stay home, and serve their husbands and children, netizens began taking stock of Xiao Liwei's outrageous behavior and noticed all the little details:
[1. His girlfriend casually said a game icon looked nice, so he stayed up all night to get her onto the national server.
2. Even when he's exhausted, he insists on cuddling with his girlfriend.
3. He respects and understands her, learns what he doesn't know, and isn't afraid to admit when he's wrong.
4. Rich, handsome, and utterly devoted to his wife.
5. He agrees that red clothes can be armor too. His values are solid, and he's faithful. A graduate of the School of Husbandly Virtues.]
When you look at it that way, Xiao Liwei is terrifyingly good!
Netizens who gradually came around: Which way do I have to bow to find a boyfriend like this?
Theme: Never underestimate anyone
