After the Demon Lord Became the Savior

Demon Lord Qizhen glimpsed the secrets of fate.

Xue Yunbi, the greatest cultivator the cultivation world had seen in nearly a thousand years, was dragged from his pedestal by those closest to him and trampled into the mud, becoming a hated cultivation furnace. He endured a long period of darkness, then finally found a way out of despair. He devoted himself to cultivation with his broken body and eventually ascended to become a true god.

Then, without warning, he blew up the Three Realms. Gods and ghosts alike perished.

Qizhen: Who? Xue Yunbi, the upright paragon who was as pure as a breeze and devoted to the world?

To save the Three Realms, Qizhen immediately launched his plan to save the world.

All he had to do was kill Xue Yunbi to save the Three Realms. But Xue Yunbi was no easy target. After all, he had reached the Deity Transformation stage in just a hundred years, an unprecedented feat.

Qizhen could only lie low by his side and wait for an opportunity to strike.

As Xue Yunbi taught the sect's disciples to swordfight, Qizhen crept closer, ready to kill him with a single palm strike.

But Xue Yunbi thought he wanted to spar and beat him to a pulp. Then he added, "Not bad. If you have no talent, you just need to practice more."

Qizhen was grinding his teeth in fury: Go to hell with your talk about me having no talent.

Qizhen was exhausted, but his assassination attempts hadn't made the slightest progress. Just as he was at his wit's end, Xue Yunbi suddenly asked him, "Want a spiritual root?"

Qizhen was a demon. A spiritual root was completely useless to him, but he might as well take advantage of Xue Yunbi's offer.

But why was it only half of one?

Xue Yunbi really was a dog!

When Xue Yunbi's cultivation suddenly plummeted, Qizhen searched everywhere for spiritual herbs to repair him. But while fighting a demon beast, he exposed his identity as a demon.

Qizhen brought the herbs back to Tianyan Sect, only to be greeted by a sharp sword. The one holding it was Xue Yunbi.

His eyes, usually so gentle, were now cold and utterly devoid of warmth, as if all the tenderness he'd shown before had been an illusion.

Qizhen fled back to the Demon Realm, badly wounded. Just as he was preparing to regroup and lead an attack on Tianyan Sect, he learned that Xue Yunbi's cultivation had plummeted because half his spiritual root was gone.

Qizhen stared at the half spiritual root in the crystal jar, grinding his teeth in rage.

Idiot. How could you just give away something like this?

… Check out my other ongoing novel, The World-Destroying Demon Lord Is Pregnant …

Dark Night is a satisfying cultivation-progression novel. It was smooth sailing all the way through, until the ending took a sudden turn: a demon lord appeared and destroyed the world with a snap of his fingers.

Gu Shi transmigrated into the book as a cannon-fodder character from a prominent family who had no spiritual roots and couldn't cultivate. 😭

To stay alive, Gu Shi came up with all sorts of plans, but none of them were foolproof.

Then the secret realm of Xizhou opened, and Gu Shi accidentally fell into a cave.

Inside was a white-haired beauty, flushed and panting, apparently drugged with some well-known aphrodisiac.

Gu Shi was about to run when a powerful force dragged him over. The white-haired beauty gripped his throat, eyes bloodshot, and parted his thin lips.

"You're quite handsome."

Gu Shi: 😳

After a forced night of passion, Gu Shi ignored his aching back and ran off while the white-haired beauty lay unconscious.

Back at his sect, Gu Shi was shocked to discover that a spiritual root had grown in his empty spiritual field.

Gu Shi: 🤔 Damn, could that beauty be some peerless expert?

To avoid future trouble, Gu Shi deliberately waited until the Xizhou secret realm had closed before returning to Xizhou. He sincerely apologized to the empty air.

He was just about to leave when a powerful force grabbed him. When he opened his eyes again, he saw the familiar cave, the familiar white-haired beauty, and those familiar panting sounds.

Gu Shi: 😨😨

Forced into another night of passion, Gu Shi didn't dare run because of the other man's power. He obediently waited for the white-haired beauty to wake.

The white-haired beauty opened his eyes, golden light glimmering in them. He clearly wasn't someone to mess with.

Gu Shi stood at attention. "Senior."

The white-haired beauty raised an eyebrow. "Now you're acting all proper."

Gu Shi felt his face grow hot. He'd been single for decades, and suddenly getting a taste of sex had left him a little dazed.

"This junior has benefited from your opportunity. I should stay and serve you, but there's something I must do first. Once it's taken care of, I'll return and beg your forgiveness."

The white-haired beauty casually asked, "What is it?"

Gu Shi didn't hide it from him. After all, the demon lord who would destroy the world deserved to be killed by everyone.

"Kill Xuanyou."

The white-haired beauty paused, his gaze growing more searching. "Do you have a grudge against him?"

Gu Shi: "Xuanyou is cruel by nature and holds grudges over the slightest offense. If he isn't killed, he'll destroy the world one day."

The white-haired beauty raised an eyebrow and gave a soft snort. "Suit yourself. Just come here once every three months."

Gu Shi hadn't expected him to be so reasonable. He happily replied, "Thank you, Senior."

*

Later, after cultivating his golden body to perfection, Gu Shi made it all the way to Xuanyou's lair without a hitch.

Seeing the familiar cave and the familiar figure on the bed, Gu Shi froze on the spot. 😟

"Honey... darling?"

Xuanyou stroked his slightly rounded belly and turned to stare at him, raising an eyebrow. "You don't call me the demon lord who'll destroy the world anymore?"

Gu Shi: 😱😱😱

A lighthearted, sweet story with pregnancy, childbirth, and child-rearing.

… Check out my upcoming novel, Back to the Tyrant's Youth …

Regent Lin Qi died, but he never expected the tyrant who had fought him all his life to come to the mass grave to claim his body.

By then, the tyrant had lost the throne. Dressed all in white, he almost blended into the snowy landscape.

He bent over, coughing, and lifted Lin Qi's corpse from the wilderness. As soon as he stood, the crossbowmen lying in wait riddled him with bolts.

The tyrant crumpled limply, falling against Lin Qi's rigid body.

Bright red blood fell on Lin Qi's face. He was long since dead, yet now he felt grief tearing him apart.

Idiot.

When Lin Qi opened his eyes again, he was back on the day he was chosen to be the Crown Prince's study companion.

Everyone knew that Crown Prince Qi Wenyan was pampered and reserved, kept his distance from others, and wore a cold expression year-round. He never took the initiative to befriend anyone, making him the complete opposite of the sociable Lin Qi.

A month earlier, Lin Qi had won first place in a polo match. The emperor himself had ordered him to sit beside Qi Wenyan at the banquet afterward. For two whole hours, Lin Qi talked to him while Qi Wenyan did nothing but nod, never saying a word. Lin Qi had found him so boring he nearly fell asleep.

So when Lin Qi learned he'd been chosen as the Crown Prince's study companion, he outright defied the imperial decree. His father had to beat him twenty times and carry him to the Eastern Palace.

But this time, Lin Qi accepted the imperial decree. He didn't even have time to pack before hurrying to the Eastern Palace.

Qi Wenyan was reading by the window. He looked up when he heard footsteps, but said nothing, as taciturn as ever. Yet Lin Qi had fought him all his life in his previous life, so he could tell that Qi Wenyan was happy.

He'd even been waiting there on purpose, since the spot faced the entrance and anyone arriving would see him at once.

A huge smile spread across Lin Qi's face. "Your Highness was waiting for me?"

Qi Wenyan reflexively denied it. "No."

Lin Qi put on a sorrowful act. "So Your Highness wasn't waiting for me. I thought you'd be glad to see me, so I rushed here as soon as I received the decree. Seems I was getting ahead of myself."

Qi Wenyan pressed his lips together, seeming unsure how to respond.

Lin Qi said, "Since Your Highness doesn't like me, I'll go back."

"Don't..." Qi Wenyan finally spoke, looking a little nervous. He was nothing like the tyrant from Lin Qi's previous life, who flew into a rage at the slightest provocation. "It's not that I don't like you."

Lin Qi had always been bold. "Then if Your Highness likes me, you have to take responsibility for me."

"…"
