The Ancient-Era Young Lady Conquers the Weird Tales

Lu Yan was once a noble young lady from a distinguished family, gentle in manner and gracious, but her fiance pushed her in front of an arrow to shield her half-sister. When she opened her eyes again, Lu Yan was standing inside a paranormal challenge. The Red Lantern Ghost's Shadow, a Republican-era family-intrigue scenario: This was right up her alley. She could use others to do her dirty work, conserve her strength, and let the other challengers charge ahead while she hid in the shadows, waiting to reap the rewards. A Loving Family, a modern supernatural family-drama scenario: Though the era had changed, the rules still demanded that challengers obey their elders without question. Lu Yan simply refused to obey. When her "mother-in-law" came at her with a bowl of "medicinal tonic," insisting she drink it, Lu Yan smiled. Then she poured it down the woman's throat. "Mother, you're getting on in years. You're the one who needs to take care of your health." Nightmare School, a campus-haunting scenario: Lu Yan was eager to learn. In the chemistry lab, the Split-Head Teacher was forced to explain the periodic table for the seventeenth time. Watching his intense concentration from below, Lu Yan was more terrifying than his exposed brain matter. In the end, the teacher was the one who went mad. He burned his lesson plans page by page and repeatedly banged his head against the lectern. "It's all my fault! I'm useless! I can't teach my students! What's the point of living?" Gradually, Lu Yan was no longer a sheltered young lady at the mercy of others. She became a terror in the paranormal challenges, exploiting loopholes in the rules until the NPCs broke down. While everyone else was running for their lives, her livestream was filled with NPCs screaming and begging for mercy. From then on, the world was hers to roam, as wide as the sea and as high as the sky. So rebirth only requires one thing: becoming strong enough yourself. Content note: This is a coming-of-age story. The heroine is from ancient times, so at first her views are inevitably influenced by the outdated ideas of her era. But as she grows, she will become a new person. Here are two upcoming novels.

"Team Leader Lin, the complaints are over the limit again this month." Lin Zhengwen flicked her soul-hooking rope and sneered. "Let them complain. If they've got the guts, they can come down here and say it to my face." No one knew that this "underworld dirty cop," who struck fear into the hearts of evildoers in the mortal realm, had been a troublemaker in life who always turned helping the helpless into violent incidents. As Lin Zhengwen put it: "I died at just the right time." * One year earlier, in the mortal realm Just before Lin Zhengwen died, she smashed a brick into the head of a knife-wielding thug. Lying in a pool of blood, she heard a voice from the underworld's HR department: "The underworld is reforming. The Eighteenth Level of Hell needs an action team leader. The job is to deal with scum among the living, and cross-realm enforcement is allowed." She grinned. "That's an option?" And so... Polluting factory owners fell into lava hell night after night. Keyboard warriors felt their fingertips turn to knives, every keystroke causing them searing pain. Domestic abusers were beaten by their own fists in illusions until they suffered mental breakdowns... Lin Zhengwen's family watched the news in silence. "...Well, at least the laws of the mortal realm really can't touch her now." From then on, Lin Zhengwen became famous in both the living world and the underworld, known as the "Underworld KPI Reaper," the "Underworld Dirty Cop," and the "Outlaw Beyond the Law." Upcoming: Farm Malice Points to Unlock the Gacha Cultivation Era Ling Bo transmigrated from the Age of Declining Dharma and discovered that this was a wondrous era combining high technology and cultivation. Almost every industry had some connection to cultivation. The pharmacies sold elixirs that enhanced cultivation. Pet shops sold spirit beasts that could be contracted and had spirit-beast bloodlines. The treasure shops sold all kinds of spirit weapons... Most importantly, every TV channel was advertising an upcoming secret-realm exploration. . The secret realm was an extraordinary place, with over ten times the spiritual energy of the outside world. Spirit plants, spirit beasts, and spirit-ore deposits were everywhere. Ten thousand keys would descend from the sky, and the realm would open for one month. It was a lawless land where people could fight to their hearts' content, and a treasure trove for fortune seekers. A key could end up in anyone's hands: a homeless person, or some obscure celebrity who'd gotten famous by picking a fight with a martial arts star. That's right, Ling Bo was that obscure celebrity. No one knew that the obscure celebrity mocked for trying to ride the wave of a moon landing scandal was actually the legitimate child, while the martial arts star who had enjoyed all the resources of the marriage was the illegitimate child tainted by original sin. . While Ling Bo was still thrilled at the thought of this exciting new world, a cold, malicious voice sounded beside her ear. [Congratulations, Host. You have been bound to the Malice Point Gacha System. Earn malice points to open gacha boxes. Spirit plants, elixirs, spirit weapons, cultivation techniques, and more are all available.] [Checking current malice points... Huh? Congratulations, Host. Your current malice points total is 32,000.] System: ...You're practically the chosen Host. Ling Bo was secretly delighted. So there are perks to being an obscure celebrity. Hahaha! Let the mockery get even louder! . When she heard that the illegitimate child had also gotten a key, and learned that the secret-realm expedition would be livestreamed worldwide, Ling Bo grew even more excited. The illegitimate child, a martial arts star, had tens of millions of fans. Even if each one gave her a single malice point, she'd make a fortune. Hahaha! Let the illegitimate child see what she's capable of! All you haters, come hate her! For a whole month, Ling Bo worked hard to farm malice points from the illegitimate child. But as the secret realm neared its end, something strange happened. Unable to hear the outside world's reactions, Ling Bo noticed that her malice points, which had soared at first, were increasing more and more slowly. Then one day, she bullied her way into stealing the most valuable spirit ore from the illegitimate child. The illegitimate child crouched on the ground and sobbed, touched that her older sister hadn't taken everything. The malice points didn't go up at all. The obscure celebrity had become popular. That wouldn't do. Ling Bo hurriedly activated her secret identity feature, ready to leave the secret realm and keep farming malice points under a different identity. As long as you hate me, we're sisters in all but blood. . From then on, the heroine's secret identities appeared in the National Youth Cultivation Tournament, interdimensional exploration variety shows, the World Cultivation Tournament, and all kinds of livestreamed events. Her tales of "wickedness" spread across the world. Then one day, a sweet voice kicked the Malice Point Gacha System away. [Hello, Host. I've beaten up that bad guy. I'm the Goodwill Point Gacha System. Earn goodwill points to open gacha boxes.] Heroine: ...Uh, could I already be beyond redemption? [No way. I checked your stats, and you currently have one million goodwill points.] Heroine: ...Wasn't I doing a good job maintaining my persona? How did this happen? ~ Note: Everyone the heroine farms malice points from deserves what they get. She changes secret identities frequently, and there are identity-reveal and comeback arcs. Theme: Rise from the ashes.
