The Regent Is Hated by All

Pei Xingyue held two letters in his hands.

One was from his father, saying he was gravely ill and had little time left.

The other was from his beautiful, kind-hearted moonlight brother, saying he was homeless and disabled.

Both wanted to see him.

His big brother wasn't doing well. The letter laid out all the bitter details of how their father had never cared for him, their mother had never loved him, and his brothers had tormented him over the years. Now he was even facing the indignity of being kicked out of his home. Pei Xingyue's heart ached for him, and he wanted nothing more than to rush over and comfort him.

But in the end, he chose to visit his father first.

Even though this father had abandoned his wife and child to climb the social ladder and was a complete scumbag, the man was about to die... so Pei Xingyue had to fight for the inheritance. After all, his big brother had nothing, and was poor and disabled. If he didn't have enough money, how could he support him?

But when Pei Xingyue arrived in the capital, he found out his scumbag father had lied to him! His big brother had lied to him too!

Prince Zhao commanded a powerful army. The new emperor had relied on his help to ascend the throne, only to turn around and try to kill him. Prince Zhao saw through the plot.

The officials begged for mercy, and the Empress Dowager threatened to take her own life. For the sake of their shared mother, Prince Zhao let the matter go, but decided to bring the legitimate eldest sons of all officials of the second rank and above under his command, to keep them in check.

Pei Xingyue's scumbag father happened to be the Minister of State Affairs, a second-rank official.

Pei Xingyue planned to run away with his big brother, but the person standing before him with the token was none other than the damned Prince Zhao, famed for his treachery and cruelty, his unpredictable temper, and his reputation as a fiend everyone wanted dead!

He decided to get away from both of these troublesome men.

Unfortunately, the martial world was in turmoil. A martial arts master wanted to take justice into his own hands and assassinate the brutal Prince Zhao...

That night, the Prince's personal guard watched Prince Zhao sitting in a pavilion, drinking and feeding the fish, while assassins stirred all around them. All he could think was that he wanted to curse.

He asked nervously, "Your Highness, what exactly are you waiting for?"

Xuan Chen gave a sinister, cruel smile. "To kill."

Upcoming historical fantasy novel: Take Life and Death in Stride, Fight Anyone Who Disagrees

Yin Lu died in the apocalypse, but when he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a world of cultivation, as the infamous young master of the Demon Palace.

To celebrate his inheritance of the Demon Palace, his subordinates, a band of evil demons, abducted young prodigies from the immortal and Buddhist sects and brought them to him as cultivation furnaces.

A born sword body, a pure spirit body, a reincarnated Buddha, descendants of ancient gods... Each was a rare constitution, seen only once in a century. Yin Lu could achieve greatness in demonic cultivation by absorbing the energy of any one of them.

But among these top-tier cultivation furnaces, there was also a young man of little ability and an ordinary constitution, abducted solely because of his extraordinary bearing and appearance.

Without protection, the young man would surely die in the Demon Palace.

Yin Lu, whose heart had long since turned to stone in the apocalypse, had no intention of getting involved with anyone. But the instant he met the young man's gentle, pure eyes, he found he couldn't look away.

Yin Lu raised a hand and pointed at him.

Yan Li was taken aback, then lowered his eyes and smiled. He stood and followed him.
