If you look closely, in her youth she was just a little charlatan who wanted to live a quiet, comfortable life. Born into a dirt-poor family of charlatans, Zhu Ying was dealt hard mode from the start. To keep her biological daughter from being drowned, her mother, Zhang Xiangu, had to claim she’d given birth to a boy. As outsiders in the village, the Zhu family struggled to get by.

   This story is truly excellent. I followed it serially for a long time, and it felt like a serious drama. Some of the clashes and allusions even required interpretation from the readers in the comments section. The characters' personalities and actions are very realistic. It feels like a serious drama without being boring, often throwing in unexpected dry humor that's witty but not jarring. Many details and foreshadowings are so clear that once you understand them, it's like solving a riddle left by the author, which is very satisfying. There were also some parts I didn't quite grasp, which I had to explain in the comments. There are many male characters (because most of the story focuses on court politics and local governance), but there's no "male lead" in the traditional sense of a romance novel. That's right, there's no "romantic subplot." Most of the story revolves around a woman disguised as a man (not the kind where she wears this disguise while having romantic relationships). Later, after spending most of her life cultivating her power, she finally becomes a "king" in a remote area before her true identity is revealed. However, she doesn't use this as a gimmick; she simply focuses on improving the lives of the people. It all started because her father was unreliable. To save him, she got caught up in some trouble, and from then on, she was swept along by the wheels of history. At first, a single word from a spoiled brat could land her in prison, almost preventing her return. Later, she carefully maneuvered her way into the imperial court, and then was assigned to govern a remote region (farther and more remote than exile for criminals), subjugating mountain tribes, engaging in wits and courage to open trade negotiations… Following this story is a thrilling and nerve-wracking experience, yet also incredibly captivating. The characters in the book are all very three-dimensional and realistic. Was Zheng Qi, the initial benefactor, a good person who brought Xiao Zhu into officialdom? It was more about building connections and gaining support for himself. While he may seem bad, he genuinely did his best to help her. Later, the complex web of interests and factional struggles made it impossible to simply categorize her as good or bad. The true gentlemanly prime minister saw through Xiao Zhu's quick wit and Zheng Qi's manipulation of her, advising her to study more. Later, before the succession struggle erupted, he did his utmost to send some young key figures far away to gain experience, preventing them from all being lost. Only then did Xiao Zhu begin her new path of establishing her own power base. Once there, she didn't rely on any special abilities (this story is neither a transmigration nor a rebirth story, so there are no special abilities). The various difficulties and obstacles are very realistic (such as language barriers, cultural differences, and the power struggles between superiors and subordinates)... The children Xiao Zhu took in also had their own unique characteristics, some bright and some not so bright, making them very vivid... Highly recommended to read! There were many arguments in the early comments, but after chapter 100-something, it became mostly about analyzing details. I've never been good at rating and sorting (that top 100 list really gave me a headache; I eventually just grouped similar books together, since those at the bottom aren't necessarily bad). I'd rather pile all my favorites into one folder, without any order (just categorized by type or style), because I feel that subjective preferences are wrong in ranking, and objective reviews and ratings are unprofessional and I'm not qualified. But if I could only recommend one book to someone, I would recommend this one—take my recommendation! It's not that I like everyone in this book, but this one is very genuine and authentic. I followed Xiao Zhu all the way through, especially since I was following the serialization, and I was completely hooked… There are no red flags (even some characters that made me angry or sad), and I even reread some scenes repeatedly. Sometimes I even relive the plot by liking posts.

2. 2 卫 The Wei Family’s Daughter 卫家女 Sanshui Xiaocao三水小草Romance1.0M WordsCompleted The Wei family has three daughters. They are wildflowers, untethered winds, and blades that shatter the old world.

   You could call it a wish-fulfillment story, about the Wei sisters conquering the world; or you could call it a tragic story, about a corrupt emperor and treacherous officials destroying their families and causing them endless suffering. I think it's more like a heavy drama, tearing a crack in this murky and dirty world, leading towards the light, even though the process is far too painful and difficult.

   I really liked this one; it's a very light and heartwarming story. It's also the kind of story where you can discover some surprising foreshadowing upon rewatching. In short, it's a sweet treat for two adorable kindergarten kids. Or, to put it another way, good deeds are rewarded (because their good intentions saved someone, their act of saving that person also saved their own life). It has a slightly unconventional feel, for example, scholars are all physically weak, and favored concubines are all villainous and wicked... There is a character who is reborn, but she is not the focus and is not given much attention. However, you can infer the original storyline, the new variables, and their impact from her actions (I like this way of describing things by inferring from actions rather than simply stating them).

4. 4 暗 No Secret Crushes Allowed 暗恋禁止 Sanshui Xiaocao三水小草Romance340k WordsCompleted Previously titled The School Hunk Suddenly Attacks Me with a Good Person Card I still prefer the original title. Jinjiang makes it hard to display long titles in full now, so I’ve changed it back. As the school hunk of Lingcheng No. 1 High School, Lu Xu’s life had always followed a set order, just like his name. That is, until his sixteenth birthday, when he received a text message from twelve years in the future. A girl would go blind eleven months later while saving him. Her name was Sheng Luo 19.5kFavorites29.9kClicks/ch27.5kGifts

   Curator note

   More than the romance, I was actually moved by the friendship in this story. When her diary was read aloud in public, someone stepped forward in her despair and admitted to having a crush on the school heartthrob. She argued fiercely with him to tutor her, completely forgetting he was once her crush (regardless of who cares, everyone loves my heroine, three people fighting over her tutoring). Everyone has their own family troubles. The whole story is warm, tender, and adorable. The domineering Sheng Shizi is most afraid of the school beauty asking him for tutoring, and there's also the elementary school genius who can't even reach the ground while sitting on his chair, and Teacher Lu—three tutors… The table of contents is full of food (but you can't find specific chapters through the table of contents).

5. 5 当 When the Plot Arrived 当剧情降临 Sanshui Xiaocao三水小草Romance245k WordsCompleted The upcoming novel in the same series, The School Heartthrob Suddenly Attacked Me with a Good Person Card, is now underway. “You’re actually the cannon-fodder supporting female character in a domineering CEO story. After the male and female leads fall in love, you, the male lead’s secretary, grow jealous and resentful, and eventually…” The projection on the wall shifted from scene to scene, playing out the melodramatic story of her as the “supporting female character.” Chu Shangqing, star secre 40.5kFavorites83.7kClicks/ch20kGifts

   Curator note

   This can be understood as a subversion of the "domineering CEO falls for a naive and clumsy heroine" trope, with no awkwardness in the workplace scenes, and an overall light and lively tone. The "naive heroine" becomes a devoted fan of our Chu Mi, even glaring angrily at the male lead. There's an assistant who acts as our CP (couple) mouthpiece, mainly because she's Chu Mi's "family member," constantly cursing her boss a thousand times over.

   Curator note

   This is a Conan fanfic. The female lead is Inspector Hanada (who is strong and rich), and the male lead is Rei Furuya. The overall style is light and cheerful, with occasional impromptu mini-drama performances that are lively and funny. I followed this story serially for a long time. The students in the acting department all have their own identities; I remember the author even had character designs on Weibo. The class monitor is a timid and resourceful little hamster who's always by Hanada's side. Hanada usually seems like the calm protector, but he's actually everyone's darling, especially Sosa, who's usually the most unreliable and the Black Organization's nightmare, but he's always very attentive when it comes to Hanada. The friendship and mutual support among the classmates is also wonderful. I couldn't resist rewatching it after the initial recommendation. The emotional descriptions are delicate, moving, and not out of character. Every struggle and conflict brought tears to my eyes. The two characters initially dislike each other (a police chief working four jobs vs. A rookie cop who doesn't want to work overtime), but later, despite it being a mutual crush (oh yes, I have to praise their straightforwardness; I hate those misunderstandings where they don't bother to explain), they struggle due to their respective responsibilities and duties (it's a reasonable setup, not the kind of misunderstandings just added to fill time). The second half is a collection of "so sweet," "so heartbreaking," and tear-jerking moments. I recently rewatched it, and Inspector Megure is such a great leader! The classmates have such a strong bond! (Even when they're just trying to get by with a game of virtual characters, they go berserk when a friend gets hurt or killed.) And their shifts in perspective are all traceable; their attitudes change according to the plot.

7. 7 求 Surviving in the Animal Kingdom: Quick Transmigration 求生在动物世界[快穿] Cat Petter撸猫客Romance1.6M WordsCompleted As it turns out, staying up all night writing a paper brings bad luck.

All she could see were bushes rushing past and two furry little bundles stumbling along. From then on, there was only one thing she had to do: Survive. This story is also known as "The Years I Spent as a Lioness Leader", "How to Build a Wolf Pack", "Hey Handsome, Want t 169.5kFavorites292.5kClicks/ch735.6kGifts

   Curator note

   In short: Transmigrate into different animals. It's a quick transmigration story, without any complicated transmigration mechanics. The writing focuses directly on the lives of each animal, making it feel like an interesting popular science article (I even wondered if the author was actually writing a thesis in this field). It has a documentary feel, with some rather cruel scenes (not the childish kind, but one that shows the living environments of various animals). It's not the kind of story where the protagonist transmigrates into an animal and then becomes human to fall in love. The entire story is about animals, and a couple appears at the end, but that's not important (I'm past the age of only wanting sweet romance). Every animal is adorable, such as the "orange cat" who escaped from the circus and led a tiger cub back to its homeland, the parrot that braved the freezing cold to save an old man who had collapsed on a winter night, the one who couldn't speak but used its beak to peck at the phone to report a poaching gang, and the wolf cub who grew from a little wolf fighting with its older siblings for food to a wolf king... However, each chapter has an animal title, so if you don't like a certain story, you can skip to the next one.

Until one day, her father died, her mother remarried, and someone threatened to wipe out her family line.

He became one 52.5kFavorites98.6kClicks/ch135.2kGifts

   Curator note

   This story is also good. Unlike the story of Xiao Zhu, who was born into poverty, this one features a noble family, with the entire family being imperial relatives or high-ranking officials. However, the beginning isn't smooth. Born into a military family, she's frail and needs to be carried even for a short distance (but she's very direct and brutal when it comes to scolding and hitting people; despite her poor health, she has subordinates). She could have lived a pampered life at home, but then all her elders passed away, and she faces a powerful rival minister. Her mother is forced to remarry (through a political marriage), and her maternal grandparents' powerful backers are either dead, sick, or disabled. She has no choice but to fight for her family's title as a woman. This story includes a romantic subplot with the male lead, who is rescued by the female lead while on the run and becomes her servant due to his military prowess. There's a character I really like in this story, the female lead's nephew. He's a time traveler from the future. He's watched too many brainless dramas about the future and thinks his aunt is a naive and innocent girl. She doesn't have an omniscient perspective and can't see the overall strategy. She only knows a few key events and some important figures. She really thinks it's like in the TV series. Then she keeps making stupid mistakes and her true identity is exposed. The female lead is neither a time traveler nor a reborn native. She really has brains and methods and directly manipulates her nephew.

   This is a slow-burning, long novel, not the kind of simple, straightforward, fast-paced, satisfying story. It's even a bit realistic and somewhat frustrating; I didn't finish it the first time I read it. The romance is a nice touch (very moving; I still cried when I reread the epilogue). The main focus is on the career storyline, not the kind with overpowered abilities. You can feel the hard work and worry involved, how she improved the situation of women in a feudal context, albeit a small one, but she saved some people and changed their destinies. The female official isn't just a simple servant. The author is skilled at subtle, nuanced storytelling; she doesn't force you into understanding her hardships from the beginning, but rather reveals her struggles towards the end, showing how she couldn't even wash her own socks before. Then, when you recall the beginning, when she was living under someone else's roof, tending to an elderly person, you get that poignant feeling of remembering a particular detail.

    This is a horror game set in a bizarre world, where you use items to complete missions and clear levels (not the kind with a set set of rules). The monsters in this story aren't just mechanical killing machines; they each have their own character and consciousness, leading to more interaction (such as using monsters to kill other monsters or trading with them). Some levels also reveal certain issues, like the kindergarten level where several parents have differing educational philosophies. The female protagonist has many talents (skills/items) and uses combination attacks to easily overcome challenges. This story is quite satisfying and primarily serves as a stress reliever.

    This is a rule-based supernatural tale, where cheat codes (or flawed rules) are highlighted in red. The author has thoughtfully included backstory scenes (a detective and lawyer duo). The rules are logically sound, and once you enter a rule-based supernatural tale, you'll unconsciously enter a deduction mode, working together to figure out how to break the deadlock. The people you encounter include selfish and ruthless individuals, as well as those who sacrifice themselves to give others a chance to live (not every time is a smooth ride without sacrifice). Eliminate each source of pollution to prevent the rule-based supernatural tale from reappearing, and acquire various items. Ultimately, eliminate the key supernatural tale, causing the supernatural world to disappear completely and return to normalcy.

She's also the type to take direct action and refuse to be humiliated, occasionally throwing in some dry humor. It's not all just wish-fulfillment; the truth behind the cases is often heavy. One story is about a man wrongfully imprisoned for ten years, finally released only to be falsely accused again. His mother appealed for ten years, only to receive news that he was "continued to kill" and "utterly ruthless" after his release. His faith crumbled, and he committed suicide. It was so heartbreaking to read. Facing public opinion and "witness testimony," and being hunted by the entire city, he was completely at a loss. His only phone call was when he said, "I feel like this world is doomed, at least my world is doomed." [Crying emoji]

    The male and female leads swap souls in this ancient Chinese romance novel. Song Chuzhao, a vigorous girl raised on the frontier, is disgusted by her family's inner circle [heart emoji], while Gu Fengjian, a talented but frail man, is pampered by his family. One is skilled in martial arts, the other intelligent; they help each other solve their problems—one helps her navigate the intrigues of the inner circle, the other helps him resolve his inner conflicts [dog emoji with rose emoji]. One point that really resonated with me was how they consciously considered each other's needs when using each other's bodies, such as being mindful of what the other couldn't eat. Another painful point is that the female lead only realizes after swapping bodies that her original skills were admired, but were only looked down upon when she was a woman. So it's not that she has a problem, it's the societal prejudice against gender [chin rest emoji]. Our Chuzhao shines brightly, no arguments allowed, especially when she's riding a horse and fighting! By the way, this is where my love story begins [dog emoji].

    Seemingly unconventional, the story features a battle of wits with students, with satisfying debates and a compelling narrative. It explores the life of a high-achieving second-generation instructor, showcasing his abilities and even includes exam-taking tips – the characters are well-developed. The interactions between the male and female leads are also entertaining. The male lead is a pitiful figure with an awkward background, constantly taking the blame, while the female lead is audacious and reckless (or, as Song Wen puts it, unconventional), adept at making friends and shifting blame. The beginning is lighthearted, but the most heartbreaking part is the so-called rebellion of that era (I won't go into details to avoid spoilers), which was quite painful to read. The scene at the beginning where a five-year-old waits by the roadside all night and then perseveres for another night is also somewhat poignant.

    Now we're getting to the "Legs Bro" part (back then it was called "Slightly Thick Leg Hair"). At one point, I even suspected that the author was an alien from outer space who traveled to ancient times, which is why he could write about any genre so well. The various weapon settings in the interstellar genre are all comprehensive and well-documented, not just glossed over (I just finished organizing and realized I didn't subscribe to the whole thing; it might have been too long to finish back then, or maybe I read it while still reading the txt version. I'll finish it and upload it later). The ancient settings are also very realistic, feeling lifelike without being overly oppressive or dull. For example, this one is a female-disguised-as-male officialdom story (first of all, this is what I read, so it's definitely not a story about a woman disguised as a man and then having romance; don't force the romance, you can still occasionally enjoy it, just treat her as a sidekick who provides the fighting spirit). The campaign to rectify the officialdom is in full swing, full of wits and courage. She is clearly upholding justice but looks like a shameless bully, which is very satisfying to watch. Xiao Fang is very skilled at fawning over powerful figures, but when she explains the principles of decision-making to the timid fifth prince, you'll think that this is what the Crown Prince, trained by the Imperial Tutor, should be like. One point that left a deep impression on me when I first watched it was the opening scene where she reported the local official. She actually helped her classmate (the son of a corrupt official), but he only resented her, and another classmate misunderstood her. Back then, I was young and couldn't bear the thought of doing good deeds being misunderstood and resented. I was angry that she didn't tell them. But now, thinking back, given her personality, she wouldn't have explained herself so much. Getting his parents brought to justice was for the sake of the people; helping him was something she felt had a clear conscience about, not something she wanted to gain favor with. Then there's her personality. It feels like that environment needed someone like her to change things, and she was indeed adept at surviving in that environment. She wasn't a gentleman in the traditional sense; she was very quick-witted and resourceful, even sometimes a bit shameless and brazen. She called herself a villain, but how could someone raised under the tutelage of the Imperial Tutor, with such a passionate heart for the people, be truly bad?

    This story is very strong. The initial background introduction is a bit frustrating and uncomfortable, but later on, we see Sister Song awaken and use her wit and courage to lead us to a comeback. It's like a feel-good story, but it's also very heartbreaking. She tries her best just to get a chance for a retrial. When you're found guilty, you're considered evil to the core. When someone can write your life's backstory, create numerous obstacles to force you to become evil, thus proving you're a bad person and convicting you, and countless people are watching and judging you without your knowledge, isn't that painful to think about? Watch how Sister Song secretly develops and subtly amazes everyone! Structurally, it consists of a series of live trials. The main plot is that the female protagonist killed someone in self-defense. If she wants a turnaround, she needs to participate in the live trials and gain the support of the public jury. People with powerful connections want to destroy her, so they deliberately create leading obstacles in the live trials to make everyone think she's evil. The only flaw in this story is that stupid king.

    The beginning seemed like a typical transmigration story about a female supporting character or a female supporting character awakening (the protagonist lives in the spotlight, while the supporting characters cease to function after the protagonist leaves). However, as the setting unfolded, it became clear it wasn't that simple. The part where the maintenance officers were predominantly female gave me goosebumps. The scenes of defending Juyong Pass against foreign enemies and Shenzhao having his memories repeatedly reset were incredibly heartbreaking and painful to read. The so-called young general defending against foreign enemies and the freedom that comes after passing the pass are all lies; the so-called happy ending is all irony… Some settings are so profoundly insightful that they're almost painful, but generally speaking, it's a typical "cool" story, so you don't need to be too afraid (objectively speaking) (if you don't consider the initial suffering).

The past is gradually revealed through flashbacks later on (being rescued after being seriously injured and wandering among the common people, avenging her benefactor, and the young master who was her white moonlight helping her on the path of cultivation before he died). The later conflicts in the cultivation world regarding lineage were quite amusing. Some food cultivators emphasized freshness (leaving food unprocessed and bloody), while others were overly concerned with etiquette and rituals. The fact that they disregarded taste in their food was utterly absurd.

    Several male cultivators were hindered in their cultivation because they owed a debt to a mortal woman. Little did they know that this woman had already ascended to immortality. During their journey to repay the debt, the past entanglements were gradually revealed. It's infuriating that cultivators don't treat mortals as human beings, using them as tools for cheating in their cultivation or resorting to beatings and abuse... Even their so-called repayment of the debt wasn't a genuine apology, but merely an attempt to solve the problem of their inability to ascend. I still remember that scene vividly. My partner, having completed his tribulation, simply left and never looked back, even leaving a token as a pretense of kindness, saying I could ask for help if I ever needed it. But when I was truly desperate and had nowhere else to turn, his mortal body was harassed by his sect's subordinates. After barely surviving and climbing those steps, the gatekeeper, without even asking what happened, swept me off my feet with a flick of his sleeve… The female protagonist, despite being an ordinary person, has been doing good deeds for the people, building bridges and dams, which is considered an act of merit leading to ascension to heaven.

    It's a cultivation novel, but it's not the serious and dull kind, nor is it completely absurd. It's always ready to burst out laughing (the sisters in the comments section suggest not reading it while eating, as you might burst out laughing. It's really abstract, like the biggest assassin organization called "Did It Die?", The female lead carrying a donkey on her back, cooking with a pill furnace and refining pills with a pot...). It will also make fun of us in the story (like the master-disciple relationship [doge]). The other disciples are all extraordinary: the senior brother, an old man with a jade pendant, is a typical male protagonist from an early web novel who gets dumped after a failed engagement. His passive skill is that if he can't win a fight, the female lead will give him motivational speeches (like "Your fate is in your own hands, not in the heavens"), and he can then defeat opponents far stronger than himself. The senior sister is a female protagonist who experiences a "wife-chasing crematorium" scenario. She was abused and reborn, and after the female lead re-planned her career, she actually opened a crematorium (where she throws bad guys to work for free). The junior sister is a female protagonist from a Jinjiang romance novel. She has severe social anxiety but is favored by spirit beasts. She picks up a demon prince who has turned into his original form. Logically, it should be a story of being cornered and forcibly kissed, but after the female lead intervenes, the junior sister seems to have a strongman persona (if I remember correctly). She can easily break several ribs of the demon prince with her cute and coquettish punches. The female lead thinks she's just a random passerby, but actually... [Evil laugh] she's a fortune teller. Because she's poor, she has to know a little bit of everything. She's not destined for wealth, but she can see her senior brother's cheat-like old man. There's a part in the story where she inherits a fortune teller's weapon. After mastering it, her abilities become extraordinary.

    This is a lighthearted, humorous novel with a cultivation setting, riddled with holes, where everyone possesses their own gaming skills. Beneath the surface of laughter and jokes lies a plot with twists and turns. It was while reading this novel that I suddenly realized that while we read novels, the characters within them form their own worlds. The text we see is limited; each person in this world has their own identity, background, and story. We can't see everything through the limited words we read. So, when a novel portrays someone as a villain who committed evil deeds, is that really the case? Are there unwritten conspiracies unfolding in places we don't see, with a scapegoat introduced while the real culprit has already escaped?

    It's a relatively lighthearted cultivation novel, not heavy but not outrageous either, and it's plausible. Because the protagonist is a little girl who reads storybooks hoping that a god will come and take her away (a former princess who didn't have a good life; her father was a tyrannical emperor who was overthrown), the overall style is somewhat childlike, so it leans towards cuteness. Many things are based on reality. For example, in the cultivation world, there's a shop that gives out coupons as red envelopes during the Lunar New Year—and let's just say, the real problem isn't the small discounts. When traveling, they bring back local specialties for their sect through a courier-like organization. The female disciples buy all sorts of flowing fairy dresses… The sect is very warm and loving; the male disciples worry that she might mistake fictional stories for reality and make mistakes in cultivation… Later in the story, she goes back to the mortal realm and solves a problem. Because she remembers her former identity and the sins committed by her tyrannical father, she has to take responsibility and help them this time.

    This is a fantasy novel, so don't be misled by the title and synopsis; it's not just a typical pampered romance. The daily life of raising a child is incredibly heartwarming [pat on the head]. The original storyline features a respected leader of a prestigious righteous sect, but this has been maliciously altered at the beginning by a reincarnated individual, leading her to accidentally join a sect teeming with "villains." One particularly painful point for me is that in the original story, she was the leader of the righteous path, tasked with slaying demons. Her brother was saved by a ghost cultivator but became a demon, forever unable to reunite with her, and even facing off against her. Moreover, she ultimately died saving the world [crying emoji]. In this life, both siblings believe the other is dead, which is also heartbreaking. Their previous dependence on each other was also deeply moving. Thankfully, they can reunite in this life. Several "villains" in the sect have their own stories, not just simple background NPCs in a pampered romance; they each have their own unique plots (each with their own tragic story). Our little one intervenes, making amends and changing the fates of these "villains." Two other very enjoyable moments: one was that, under Qingqing's guidance, the eldest brother finally cleared up the misunderstanding by being straightforward with his younger brother; the other was that Qingqing's sect (the same sect Qingqing belonged to in the original novel) wasn't the kind of sect that would immediately resort to violence upon encountering a suspected undercover agent, but genuinely cared about their disciple [applause emoji]. The funniest scene was the brother, who had been burdened with an undercover mission and worried about harming the sect, being left aside while the Demon Lord of the Ghost Realm and the Sect Master of the Immortal Sect sat together drinking tea [doge emoji].

It satirizes behaviors like readily resorting to massacres of entire cities and the destruction of the entire realm, or using youth as an excuse for wrongdoing. The part where the male protagonist is morally blackmailed is slightly unsettling. The sect is treacherous yet filled with love. There are also prophecies predicting bad things to come, but the female protagonist inadvertently saves some people, averts some regrets, and resolves some crises ahead of time (again, the kind of writing I love—not stating things directly, but rather letting the reader connect the dots and realize "oh, that's how it is").

They thought they had ascended, but upon reaching the Heavenly Ladder, they found themselves in the Abyss, becoming a menace and corrupting the spirits of those who perished there. Furthermore, they used those with Bai Ze's innate talent to fill the Abyss—truly wicked.

    This is a story about a silly, mischievous little boy in a fantasy world. He's precocious and often spouts cringeworthy, cheesy lines, like a kid influenced by internet slang—he doesn't really understand but loves to learn. This chuunibyou has all sorts of stereotypical views of cultivation from fictional novels, which the adults around him secretly bring to life. His sect has male senior sisters and female senior brothers, and everyone has been reincarnated multiple times and is now settling down. He plays with a group of friends (his underlings), and there's even a cultivation version of King of Glory, where they team up for duels and cultivation battles. The main focus is on a carefree and goofy character.

    Curator note

    This is a cultivation-themed story, not a lighthearted comedy; it leans towards seriousness, even some tragedy (many characters sacrifice themselves for a chance to survive). The protagonist is struck by lightning during his ascension tribulation and transported a thousand years into the future, leaving behind a legend. The most fun part is exploring the ruins and caves left by himself and his childhood friends with his future companions, discovering that the passwords they used were simply blessings exchanged in their past lives. The saddest part is that his childhood friends perished, were maimed, or disappeared after the cataclysmic event, yet they fought each other relentlessly. The most touching part is their tenacious resistance against an overwhelming enemy while preserving their own lifeline. Furthermore, to prevent them from being used by the enemy, they personally destroyed the teleportation arrays they had built to facilitate travel to various corners of the world. The most infuriating part is the false accusation that the sea race created and used half-demons to incite conflict between humans and the sea race, and those half-demons whose bodies collapsed were brainwashed and died unjustly. Overall, the story is heavy. A max-level expert returns to the starting village, focusing on leveling up in the early stages and fighting against higher-dimensional invasions later.

I’m an utterly ordinary senior sister, with nothing special about me except that people call me a sword-training maniac. Lately, I’ve had a problem. My junior sister, whom I raised myself, was dumped by a man. Yesterday, she suddenly asked me, “Senior Sister, if I die, will he regret it, remember how good I was to him, go through hell, and come back to me?” I was stunned. “Junior Sister, what are you talking about?

    The daily life of the seemingly ordinary but undefeated senior sister taking care of children. At the beginning, we're somewhat following the senior sister's perspective, so we don't see many things (only some scattered oddities) and find them strange. Just bear with it a little (or rather, treat it like a deduction game; we can deduce from their behavior...). It's not that the story is generally "stupid," it's just that our main perspective (the senior sister) has a special setting. The junior sister is the kindest, cutest, softest, most considerate, and most obedient baby. There's the stubborn but food-loving senior uncle, the expressionless but insightful master, and the seemingly reborn junior brother with a pure, unrequited love. This story is anti-cremation literature; don't hurt yourself to get revenge on others or to make them repent!

    Curator note

    In the great war between immortals and demons, the Yunqing Sect suffered heavy losses, and those severely wounded chose to go into seclusion (awaiting death). The female protagonist, once the sect's junior sister, awakens after a thousand years of slumber to find everything changed and shoulders the responsibility of rebuilding the sect. A rather sordid and realistic aspect is that the sect that acted despicably during the war is now a powerful and influential force, while the protagonist's sect, having participated in the war, is depleted, with only one successor remaining. A humorous point is that the pure-hearted protagonist is bound to a romance system (don't worry, it's not about falling in love with her). To complete tasks (helping her), the system guides her to recruit a bunch of philandering disciples, each with their own story. Another funny point is that, after a thousand years, those of the protagonist's generation are all elderly (there's a scene where an old man calls her "sister"). A particularly amusing aspect is that the protagonist's personality is quite upright, yet also primitive and savage; for example, she despises petty theft but also approves of fair duels and the principle of the strong taking what is rightfully hers (outright robbery). Various species appear, including many furry creatures.

Jilted three times, she doesn’t lose her nerve. Gorgeous clothes, golden roof beams. When you have money and power, who still needs a man? This is the story of a flashy, vulgar heroine who’s been jilted three times and a hypocritical hero. A lighthearted, alternate-universe, sweet and satisfying romance.

    On the surface, they seem like a spoiled family who amuse themselves with cats and dogs, but in reality, it's not a heavy story of enduring hardship and biding their time. They're just an adorable family that lives for the moment (without doing anything that crosses any moral boundaries). Because the female protagonist dreams of her death, her family carefully analyzes the dream (so they are indeed a loving family, not the kind involved in palace intrigue. Their family bond is genuinely warm). Because she dreams that her family will be liquidated in the future, the siblings go to a secluded place in the middle of the night to bury valuables, only to be caught red-handed. Another scene that left a deep impression was the ex-fiancé who ran away from their wedding and eloped with someone else, making the female protagonist a laughingstock. Much later, the woman who eloped revealed in her recollection that after the female protagonist caught up with them, they didn't make things difficult for her (the female protagonist's family would fight with her ex-fiancé every time they met), and even warned her to be careful because he was unreliable. Later, he indeed abandoned her and went back.

    The stories involve constantly traveling to different worlds, and you can choose to read the episodes you like. The focus isn't on romance, but rather on changing fate; overall, it leans towards the "rags-to-riches" genre. The story "Transmigrated as the Mother of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character" always makes me cry; it's very touching. There's another story that still makes me angry. In the original storyline, the male lead thought he was "protecting" the female lead in the backyard, but she could have easily fought alongside her family. She was forced to stay confined and died in despair.

    Curator note

    This is a fantastic read. If visualized, the whole story would have that mysterious, dark, oppressive, and heavy atmosphere. It features a special kind of creature (I won't spoil its origin), and the main plot revolves around specific individuals battling them. There are some plot points that reveal the setting (the world-building and other settings aren't just read out in one go by the narrator, but inferred through actions). I was a little scared to sleep reading it alone late at night [laughing and crying emoji]. The entire setting is very complete, as if the world is exactly as it is, with everything having its reasons and rationale. The characters also fit their personalities perfectly. I highly recommend reading it! I felt so sorry for the couple at the mine; their relationship was so good, and the wife was pregnant, but they ran into that thing, and the wife even lost her identity. The male lead, an undercover agent for many years, is also very capable. The female lead is a key combatant.
