One night, Leng Chuhan finally gets her hands on a rare loot package, only to watch someone snatch it right before her eyes. To make matters worse, the thief brazenly challenges her to a duel.
She'd planned to log off and go to bed, but that was enough to get her riled up.
So she accepted the duel and spent ten minutes teaching her opponent a lesson.
*
She didn't return to the game until a month later.
The leader of the server's number-one guild, the same person who'd stolen her rare loot package, invited her to a party as soon as he saw her log on.
"Are you free? My friend wants to duel you."
Leng Chuhan was free.
So in less than half an hour, she beat that friend's whole crew to a pulp, too.
When the other player invited her to join the guild, Leng Chuhan immediately declined, leaving behind a simple message.
"I don't join guilds." Then she logged off again.
*
Three years ago, Leng Chuhan gave up everything and left her guild.
Three years later, she returned to Tianwen, but didn't join any guilds.
One day, Xiao Lanlan told her that three years ago, the server had had an incredibly skilled female commander.
"I heard she was the deputy leader of the number-one guild back then, and also their tournament commander. Her personal skills were amazing, and she was a top-notch strategist, too. But then, for some reason, she suddenly quit the game," Xiao Lanlan said. "Sister Han, you played on this server three years ago, didn't you? Did you hear about her?"
Leng Chuhan fell silent for a moment, then replied,
"I've heard a little about her."
It took Xiao Lanlan a long time to understand what Leng Chuhan meant by "a little."
I left in darkness, but I will surely return in the light.
Leng Chuhan
Reader's guide: A power fantasy about a strong female lead in a full-dive online game. The blurb isn't great, so feel free to try the first chapter.
Both leads are strong, but the female lead is stronger overall.
The female lead is a true all-rounder, the sort who could have the male lead's role in another story. She's flawless, awesome, and powerful (the author's absolute favorite type!).
--A preview of my next novel--
The Emperor's Heart
On the day Guan Jingshu married, Crown Prince Mu Xiuze fell gravely ill.
It was the dead of winter. Everyone thought the palace staff had failed to take proper care of the crown prince, causing him to catch a chill.
Only Mu Xiuze knew how, on that bitterly cold night, he had repeatedly poured ice-cold water over himself.
He'd promised Guan Jingshu that if she ever married, he would be there.
As the fever blurred his consciousness, only one thought remained in his mind.
This way, he wouldn't have to watch her marry someone else...
*
In the first year of Chengping, the new emperor ennobled Ning Chengye, heir to the Marquis of Duyang, as Earl of Jingyuan, and granted his wife, Lady Guan, the title of Third-Rank Commandery Lady.
Everyone said Ning Chengye had the emperor's favor, but no one knew that, late at night, the young emperor drafted the decree and reminded himself,
This is his A Shu. He must ensure her life is smooth and peaceful, filled with happiness.
For her sake, he was willing to bury all his love in his heart, never letting her see a trace of it.
But he didn't know that his A Shu wasn't happy.
*
After news of Ning Chengye's death arrived, everyone in the marquis's household was overcome with grief.
As a newly widowed woman, Guan Jingshu took charge of everything in the manor.
Her husband had just died, but she forced herself to bear her grief and handled every matter with such care and propriety that no one could find fault.
Guan Jingshu had always thought that during the five years of their marriage, though she and Ning Chengye weren't exactly a devoted couple, they had at least treated each other with respect.
She had even prepared herself to live out her life as a widow.
But on the anniversary of her husband's death the following year, Guan Jingshu met a woman, one who had a child with her.
The child looked about four years old, and his features strongly resembled the late Ning Chengye's.
Only then did Guan Jingshu understand that everything she'd given over the past few years had been a pathetic joke, something she'd done only to make herself feel better.
*
On the day she left the Marquis of Duyang's estate, rain poured down in torrents.
Guan Jingshu walked alone along the deserted street, letting the rain soak through her clothes.
A carriage slowly approached through the rain, then stopped beside her.
The curtain lifted. The young emperor stepped down, holding an umbrella.
"A Shu." He reached out, his pale fingers long and distinct. "Get in."
Come with me.
Unable to tell whether the wetness in her eyes was tears or rain, Guan Jingshu raised her hand through her blurred vision and placed her fingertips in his palm.
Everyone said an emperor's thoughts were impossible to read. But from beginning to end, Mu Xiuze had only ever thought of one person: the woman before him.
Reader's guide:
A devoted emperor x a beautiful widow
The female lead has had partners, the male lead is a virgin; the female lead remarries
The male lead is a true devoted-lover type (and a total simp). You won't regret reading!
Theme: Even the most ordinary person can shine and make a difference.
The heroine is very funny. As an old man who has played this game, when he formed a team to kill his enemies, didn't he think about the consequences of this behavior to the people in the same team? Even if I didn't think about it at the time and didn't think about it later, I'm still asking questions one by one now, and I guess I know the reason with my toes. I'm speechless. She was the disaster she brought to others. Even if she was slapped in the face later, she wouldn't feel so good.
Wow wow wow, are you really not going to write about how Lu Leng fell in love and got married?
Ah, I didn't find out earlier, otherwise I wouldn't have spent the money
Hahahahahahahahaha, I feel like the author can't stop expressing his evaluation of domestic games.
