I Rewrote Chinese Civilization with Cards

[Reader comments are open. Regular updates at 10 p.m.; posts at other times are typo fixes.]

After dying suddenly, Ming Mo transmigrates to the interstellar era and becomes the “fake heiress” who was exiled to a garbage planet and died miserably.

In this world, cards reign supreme. But because of a genetic defect, she can't awaken her psychic powers and has no chance of becoming a card maker, until she opens the Illustrated Guide to the Wonders of Huaxia, a book only she can see.

For the campus league, she puts together a rookie team no one believes in. But with one astonishing mythical human card after another, they sweep the competition!

The Poet Immortal Li Bai: One sword chills fourteen provinces!

The Hegemon Xiang Yu: My strength can uproot mountains, my might towers over the age!

First Emperor Ying Zheng: Unifying the Six Kingdoms, ruling all beneath heaven!

Empress Wu Zetian: Her nameless stele suppresses the ages!

On the interstellar battlefield, she leads a team of rising stars and brings forth mythical cards!

“Great God of the Three Altars and the Sea,” Nezha: His Wind-Fire Wheels burn through the Three Realms, and his Red Armillary Sash stirs the sea of stars!

“Perfected Lord of the Clear Source and the Wondrous Way,” Yang Jian: His Heavenly Eye pierces the void and destroys evil, while his three-pointed, double-edged spear shatters the sky!

“Nüwa, Creator of Humanity and Mender of Heaven”: With a wave of her hand, she reshapes the galaxy and restores order to the universe!

When the all-consuming Bug Queen awakens and all living beings tremble in despair, Ming Mo raises a hand and hurls out her ultimate divine card: “Victorious Fighting Buddha, Sun Wukong!”

“Take this, you old Sun's cudgel!”

Reader's guide:

1. A satisfying, fast-leveling, face-slapping powerhouse story, with a double dose of mythological and historical cards.

2. There is a male lead and a height difference. He's a handsome, roguish two-meter-tall guy; she's 1.6 meters, a carnivorous heroine who seems delicate and harmless. The focus is on her career.

3. Academy competition, with a small ensemble cast.

4. The heroine builds teams and an army. She's a card maker, so she creates cards for her teammates and army to use. They fight the insect race and compete as a team using Huaxia cards. This isn't a story where the heroine is the only one holding Huaxia cards and mowing down enemies all by herself. There are already plenty of stories where the heroine mows down everything on her own, aren't there?

5. Early on, the heroine sells cards to save up money and make even stronger ones!

6. The heroine will never sell her most important cards!

Me, Transmigrated to the Interstellar Era, Going Wild with My Huaxia Card Deck!

The following is a preview of my next novel:

"The Big Shot in the Period Drama Keeps Overhearing My Thoughts" ID=5975717

Synopsis

Qiao Yujiao is the heroine of an original trashy novel. By accident, she transmigrates into a period novel as a stupid, vicious, spoiled cannon-fodder character with the same name.

When she opens her eyes, she's in a house with bare walls, eating coarse grains that scrape her throat and wearing clothes patched over and over.

She can't put up with this miserable life for even one more day.

The original character seduced the male lead and got her whole family killed? The educated young man next door has a good family and eats fine grains at every meal. Surely a professional like her can seduce him, right?

But before she can get anywhere, her foot slips and she crashes into a rock-hard chest.

Qiao Yujiao looks up in shock. This poor, rough-looking man has a face that belongs on a magazine cover, and an incredible physique!

Not long before, Gu Lixing hit his head and unexpectedly gained a strange ability.

If he hugs someone for long enough, he can hear that person's thoughts whenever they're within ten meters of him.

So day after day, he keeps a stony face as he watches the village beauty chase after the educated young man right in front of him, while her inner thoughts strip him bare from head to toe. At night, she even acts out all her outrageous “scenes” in her dreams!

After holding out for three whole days, Gu Lixing decides to make the village beauty his wife!

Preview 2:

"Writing Trashy Romance to Get Rich in 19th-Century Western Fantasy"

A third-rate web novelist lands in the nineteenth century and becomes a poor girl staying with her aunt, a maid, and struggling to get by with her younger siblings.

Dragons fly through the sky, elves sing in the forest, and dwarves mine underground, but none of that has anything to do with a poor relative who can't even get enough to eat.

With her aunt's family about to starve because of her, Shirley decisively picks up her old trade and dips her quill in ink.

She'll earn money from her writing, buy a big house, and make sure her whole family lives in comfort!

And so a series of blood-pressure-raising novels begins to run in the London newspapers.

"The Substitute Bride, the Vampire Duke's Runaway Pregnant Darling", "Fake Heiress: The Dragon King Returns", "After Her Death, the Elven King Regretted Everything"…

The nobles sneer, “Vulgar, utterly illogical, an insult to good taste!”

At the same time, they secretly order their servants to buy the newspaper as soon as it comes out each day. “Quick, see if Lady Lilith tore that cheating scoundrel apart today!”

Later, these melodramatic stories, which had the entire city obsessed and fighting over them, are even adapted for the city's glittering opera houses.

The good news: Shirley finally makes enough from royalties to move her whole family into a grand estate and live the good life. The bad news: fantastical creatures keep showing up to smash her windows.

Theme: Keep striving and rise above your circumstances
