An Ancient Infinite Flow Story

[Complete]

As the sole personal disciple of the Blade Immortal, Bai Zhengliu's greatest talent was practicing the blade, and his worst talent was judging people.

At just twenty-two, he was already renowned throughout the martial world. Everyone who saw him called him "Hero Bai."

Also at twenty-two, he had not only suffered an unrequited first love, but had also caught his current boyfriend in bed with that first love. They didn't care about Bai Zhengliu at all.

Perhaps Heaven thought Bai Zhengliu hadn't had enough bad luck. On the day he caught them cheating, he ran into a ghost.

Bad news: The female ghost that had climbed out of a well was at the end of the corridor, and she was getting closer.

Good news: He wasn't the only one who'd encountered a ghost. The terrified couple in the room hadn't even gotten dressed, and there was also a hapless swordsman who'd been cheated on just like him.

With danger closing in, Bai Zhengliu promptly invited the other hapless man, "Brother, how about we get out of here first?"

Mei Yinghan: "..." He said nothing, silently drawing his sword.

CP: Mei Yinghan x Bai Zhengliu

Important:

1. This is an expansion of the ancient martial arts world in the author's other book, I Made the Protagonist of the Tragic Novel Defy Fate and Rewrite His Life. The character relationships are retained, but the instances are all new, so you don't need to have read the earlier book.

2. Basically, it's a story about two hapless men who've been cheated on fighting side by side, going from comrades in arms (?) to mutual admiration to falling in love =v=

3. The official title is on the cover.

(Also known as: The New Neighbor)

A new neighbor moved in next door to Ning Cheng.

He was a young man fresh out of university. On his very first day, he went to see Ning Cheng and gave him a bag of screaming apples.

Ning Cheng: ...

He accepted the apples and took the opportunity to remind the other man to check the community notice board for the resident's guide.

Moon Bay Community Resident's Guide (Excerpt)

1. The community uses key cards to control entry and exit. Your key card is your "pass" for getting home safely. Please carry it with you at all times. If you happen to lose it, go to the property management office as soon as possible to get a replacement.

2. Three meals a day are the energy stations of life. Please remember to eat on time.

3. When buying ingredients, choose fresh food first. Reject spoiled or expired ingredients and protect your food safety.

4. The community's designated garbage disposal hours are 18:00 to 22:00 daily. After that, the garbage will be collected and disposed of. To keep the community clean, do not put out garbage outside the designated hours.

5. There is currently no parcel pickup station in the community. If you see what looks like a pickup station or such a location, please contact the property management staff right away. We will verify and handle the matter as soon as possible.

6. The community's landscaping has been carefully planned, and its natural environment is exceptional. When you are relaxing at home, the crisp chirping of birds may reach your ears. This is a gift from nature, so feel free to enjoy it in peace.

7. As the saying goes, "A nearby neighbor is better than a distant relative." When a neighbor sincerely asks you for help, do your best to lend a hand and help make kindness and mutual assistance the norm in our community.

8. Protecting privacy starts with me. Please do not ask unfamiliar neighbors for personal information. Maintain good neighborly relations by respecting boundaries.

Welcome to Moon Bay Community.

Welcome to the world of rules and mysteries.

P.S. Although this is a rules-and-mysteries story, it isn't about clearing one instance after another. It's more like a short record of the two protagonists' lives in the world of mysteries.

[Coming soon 1: I Transmigrated to the Stars and Became a Mecha Master]

In a spacefaring age ruled by sentinels and guides, ordinary people, who make up just 0.02 percent of the population, are considered "cripples" and are often abandoned as soon as they are born.

Shu Yao's new body was one of them.

He grew up in an orphanage on a remote planet, earned top marks in every subject, and dreamed of becoming a mecha designer.

His teachers and classmates all shook their heads in regret. An ordinary person could never get into a mecha-related program, no matter how hard he tried.

Shu Yao knew that, but he didn't want to give up.

In the year he graduated from high school, Shu Yao heard the news. If he could use a mecha of his own design in the Galaxy Battlefield League and become one of the regional top hundred, he could get a spot in the online courses at the Federation's top university!

But on the remote planet where they lived, no game pods usable by ordinary people were sold.

With no one to turn to and at a loss for what to do, Shu Yao found a teenage sentinel who had been kicked out of his home by his stepmother.

Shu Yao: I'll take care of you, but you have to compete using the mecha I designed.

Alexei: That seems a bit unnecessary...

Shu Yao: Actually, I have a dream: to build a mecha that ordinary people can pilot, too.

Alexei: (instantly fired up) What else do you need? We'll do it together!

Shu Yao: ? (Why would a sentinel get so excited about this...? Never mind. As long as someone can compete.)

They signed up aiming to reach the regional semifinals, but somehow ended up winning the league championship.

CP: A human-form gong with white hair and a huge white cat for a spirit form x A shou determined to become a mecha master whose name will one day appear in textbooks

[Coming soon 2: A Switch-Gong Anthology]

World 1: In a world where same-sex couples can marry, your husband sees you as a substitute for his "mother-in-law."

World 2: Your boyfriend dumped you in high school because you were poor and he was greedy for wealth. After discovering you're from a rich family, he clings to you and begs to get back together.

World 3: You finally escape from the "yandere," only to be transmigrated the next day. Trapped in your own body, you watch as the transmigrator returns to the "yandere" and tries to win him over.

World 4: Everyone thinks you're bullying your handsome, delicate boyfriend.

... (An anthology. The list above isn't complete, and the title and blurb may still change. The main story isn't written in second person, and each world has a different protagonist.)

Theme: The more adversity you face, the harder you must strive forward.
