Ten Lifetimes of Beauty

[Pretend this is a blurb]

Su Li never imagined that transmigration could happen to him. But if he had to transmigrate, why did he have to get killed right after arriving? That’s going too far! Author, get out here! I’m gonna beat you senseless today...

Huh? You’re saying a super, super, super gorgeous girl likes me?

Well, in that case, I’ll forgive you for now. The match is settled, long live girls’ love!

Wait, what do you mean, “in that case”? I’m not a girl, I’m a guy! A guy, a guy, a guy, ahhhhh!

Su Li, or rather, Su Li now

“Why dwell on the past? You’re mine. You always have been.”

“Well said, gorgeous Yan! So could you take your hand off me? I’m already small, and if you keep pressing, there’ll be nothing left...”

“No.”

[Let’s pretend this is a spoiler]

I have a kindergarten education and can’t write a deep, complex villain, so I created a world with no bad guys (sort of). Basically, anyone with a name is a good person (I’m handing out good-person badges like crazy).

The story is expected to have six arcs: Rebirth, Soul Music, Heavenly Abyss, Flowing Waters, Return to the Nest, and Purification of the World. As for the main plot, well, there isn’t one. I’ll just write whatever comes to mind and go with the flow...

If I had to describe it, the main story follows a search for memories of a past life, with some monster-fighting and leveling up along the way, ending with the final boss’s defeat. The side story follows the emotional entanglements of several main characters (Who said it’s all romance? Get out of here! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻), with plenty of daily life sprinkled in. Cultivation and the like are just a bonus.

In short, it’s a clichéd story about romance and saving the world!

[Let’s pretend these are content warnings]

1. Male author, male author, male author! This is a male-to-female transformation girls’ love novel, a male-to-female transformation girls’ love novel, a male-to-female transformation girls’ love novel! Read with caution if that’s not your thing!

2. The main reason it’s a male-to-female transformation girls’ love story is that I’m a man, so the writing will have a noticeable male perspective. It doesn’t affect the girls’ love at its core (probably...).

3. This novel doesn’t fit neatly into either the male-oriented or female-oriented categories. It combines all kinds of messy elements and story formats, so read with caution if that’s not your thing!

4. 1v1. No male character will get in the way. Other girls may have some flirtatious tension, but they’ll all find their own partners in the end.

Hey, probably nobody’s reading this. Why am I even covering all my bases? /doge

[Author’s ramblings (20240404)]:

I started writing in high school and continued through grad school, so it’s been a pretty long time. My writing skills, style, state of mind, and ideas for the plot have all changed quite a bit.

Looking back now, the early writing really does have a pretty strong male gaze, and the style is quite absurd. It probably doesn’t settle down until the middle of Volume Two.

If you were a little interested after reading the prologue but worried about it being a slog, you could just read the “Old Memories” arc. By then, the style has mostly settled down, and the story stands on its own, so you might enjoy it more.

Many thanks to all the readers who took time out of their busy schedules to read my lousy work

Theme: If you love someone, love them bravely. Don’t you damn well hesitate!
