The Flirtatious Beauty Conquers the Cultivation World Through Relentless Hustle

[No need to wait for updates. The author will update irregularly, and is working on a backlog for I Became the Top-Tier Star of the Escape Game After My Secret Identity Was Exposed, which will launch in late March.]

Xing Chunfeng is a healer.

In the cultivation world, where everyone opposes pointless competition and even geniuses aspire to be slackers, he's handsome, wealthy, powerful, and gifted. Unfortunately, he's a lonely workaholic.

He alone graduates at the top of the healer academy. He alone earns the Sword Sect's only position for an outside healer.

Then, to get closer to his idol, the Sword Venerable, he joins the Sword Sect, only to discover that the sword cultivators who call themselves the Sword Venerable's junior disciples are all hopelessly unmotivated. As the saying goes, "The ones closest to the water slack off first, and the flowers in the sun turn strange."

Xing Chunfeng: How infuriating.

Xing Chunfeng: I'll make you all compete with me.

What made a bunch of uneducated sword cultivators turn over a new leaf overnight?

What made gamers suddenly acquire a new dad?

What turned the medical world, so proud of its talent, upside down overnight, almost putting someone's portrait on an altar?

And what made the aloof, beloved Sword Venerable's carefully crafted image fall apart overnight?

Person involved 1: It was Xing Chunfeng! I thought he looked so delicate that he couldn't take a punch, but he knocked me flat with one sword strike! That's when the competition started...

Person involved 2: It was Xing Chunfeng! He seemed so gentle and never scolded anyone, so I figured it was fine to be bad at the game. But when he beat the top player on the server, that's when the competition started...

Person involved 3: It was Xing Chunfeng! He was humble and low-key, never fighting for anything. Who knew he could cure the Sword Venerable, whom the entire world had declared incurable? Once powerful people from every realm, sick or not, started flocking to his clinic, that's when the competition started...

Person involved 4: Thanks for asking. I'm Xing Chunfeng. I accidentally charmed my idol, only to find that the real thing is nothing like I imagined. Is it too late to return him?

Person involved 5: ...

Sword Venerable: thoroughly hooked, honorarily promoted to kept man, cool-guy image completely shattered, too afraid to make a peep.

Reader's Guide:

1. A naturally flirtatious beauty who seems gentle and easy to bully but holds a grudge and always gets even, the shou * A Sword Venerable who seems taciturn but actually wants to talk, the gong

2. The shou is clever, beautiful, wealthy, and powerful, but a true workaholic. If he can survive the grind, he'll work himself to the bone!

3. A satisfying wish-fulfillment story! The shou gets his revenge on the spot.

4. Very indulgent, with a wildly popular protagonist, mostly in the sense that he has lots of fans, not necessarily romantic admirers.

5. And very sweet.

6. This is ancient-style cultivation, not a modern world! Entertainment has simply developed very quickly in this world. Believe in magic: this isn't science!

Saved for Later 1, Historical BL: The Sickly Imperial Preceptor Is Cheating Again

1.

It's said that the imperial preceptor is breathtakingly beautiful but sickly and short-sighted. Apart from refining pills for the old emperor, he has no other skills. When the princes fight for the throne, he even chooses to support the least favored, the Ninth Prince.

As it happens, the Ninth Prince is ordered to guard the border. Everyone decides to eliminate the imperial preceptor, a mere "pretty face with nothing behind it," so the Ninth Prince loses his support and is knocked out of the running first.

But one group of assassins after another fails to return. The imperial preceptor remains perfectly safe and unruffled.

Everyone: ??? Could the Imperial Preceptor's residence be a den of dragons and tigers?

2.

The imperial preceptor catches up with the Ninth Prince's carriage and insists on going with him to the border.

The Ninth Prince protects the frail imperial preceptor with great care, shielding him from every bump and bruise, fussing over him and looking after him attentively.

The way people look at the Ninth Prince and the imperial preceptor gradually changes.

Then the imperial preceptor proves uncannily prescient, turning the tide and helping the army avoid one crisis after another.

The people who once had their doubts: Sob, Ninth Prince, let go of the imperial preceptor and let us take care of him too!

3.

The first time they encounter supernatural powers, the imperial preceptor tells the Ninth Prince, "You saw wrong."

The second time a monster runs amok, the imperial preceptor remains calm: "It's the weather."

One day, a gigantic monster lunges down to bite the Ninth Prince.

The frail, pale imperial preceptor points at it from afar, and the monster explodes in an instant.

The imperial preceptor sighs silently.

I can't keep pretending anymore. :(

Saved for Later 2, Infinite-Flow: I Became the Top-Tier Star of the Escape Game After My Secret Identity Was Exposed

Bai Yueming is a moderately successful second-tier actor, known for playing melancholy, devoted characters. His fans call him their "white moonlight."

No one knows that the "white moonlight" is actually a homebody who loves horror movies and has a delightfully strange way of thinking.

One day, Bai Yueming accidentally enters an escape game. He's taking part in its beta test, and the entire game will be livestreamed. It's dangerous and exciting.

Bai Yueming's eyes light up: What a great deal!

So he puts on a secret identity, lets loose, and goes wild in the game.

While everyone else diligently searches for exploits, he creates bugs like crazy.

While everyone else flees in terror, he uses bugs to flirt with the bosses.

Then, on the day of the public launch, the game suffers its biggest bug ever...

In front of hundreds of millions of people inside and outside the game, his secret identity is exposed without warning.

.

Bai Yueming becomes an overnight sensation, a top-tier star in both worlds. From then on, his gaming life changes completely.

The teammates he meets are fans who try to chat with him even while monsters chase them.

The enemy assassins are his devoted fans, ready to reveal their identities just to get an autograph.

The bloodthirsty NPCs hand him clues and tremble when they face him.

Bai Yueming: Everyone else is fighting for their lives, but I'm hosting a fan meet-and-greet. This is so hard. :)

.

The game compensates Bai Yueming with a little golden snake. It can accompany him into different instances, speak human language, and intimidate other NPCs.

Then the game posts a new announcement:

Players who raise an NPC's affection to 60% can form a contract and take that NPC out of the instance!

Bai Yueming looks down at the little golden snake that's been coiled around his wrist for ages, and may or may not be an NPC: ???

The little golden snake bashfully lowers its head, its tiny face seemingly blushing. After a long pause, a progress bar slowly appears above its head.

[Affection: 100%]
