1. 1 替 The Substitute Finally Came to His Senses 替身受想开了 Yancheng Taishousheng岩城太瘦生Danmei (BL)280k WordsCompleted Originally titled The Golden Jade Cage In the first winter of the new Emperor Qin Gou’s reign, Fu You, born into a family of court poetry collectors, entered the palace for the first time to present his poems. Fu You knelt outside the curtains as the musicians played. They sang just one line, “A round little yellow sparrow,” and Qin Gou lifted his eyes from behind the curtains, his sharp gaze falling upon him. “He looks like a sparrow preparing for winter.” Qin Gou said he liked him and wanted 51.5kFavorites72.3kClicks/ch9.9kGifts

   The initial seme was really despicable, but the later "chasing after his wife" trope was okay, though not too angsty. I really dislike Huaiyu; I don't know why people don't like this kind of character. Whether as a cannon fodder seme or a friend, I feel his behavior is really boundless. Is it because Huhu has a good temper? Huhu is incredibly cute. She's an adorable little baby at first, then becomes gentle and aloof, but has a very strong queen-like aura. I wish Huhu would really be a princess; it would be so satisfying! (Of course, I know she wouldn't actually do that [pat on the head][pat on the head])

A hypocritical man had left him battered and broken, until his soul scattered into nothingness. By a stroke of heaven-sent fortune, he was reborn as a white sparrow kept in a golden cage by an Immortal Venerable. Every day, his job was to chirp sweetly for the supreme Immortal Venerable, a moody, fur-obsessed man. Fu Yuqiu swore he would defend his di 196.8kFavorites280.1kClicks/ch154.3kGifts

   I love the character of Yu Qiu as the most beautiful woman! She's so cute, a little crybaby who gets angry easily, and the group's darling. She's very well-behaved! 🙏 However, the centipede isn't likable, and it seems to have too many friends and family members. Is there a potential side couple for the seemingly dominant male lead? I forget, but there are comments suggesting side couples.

Everyone despises him, while the eldest senior brother is respected by all, as dependable and steady as a father and teacher. Xie Z 7.8kFavorites4kClicks/ch6.1kGifts

   Zheyu, I love you. Even though you were having sex with other people while I was asleep, you don't love them, you only love me. You are my chosen one, my devoted little cup. There are cannon fodder seme and people who actually do the fighting. Someone in the comments section said, "Stage design seme, are you even human? He's just an ordinary guy, he's nothing compared to me!"

He suffered from a bone-deep poison called “Burrowing Bone” that made him dread the light, and spent most of his life in seclusion. Because of his stubbornness when he was young, his senior brother died horribly in a secret realm, his father’s treasured relic was stolen, and his betrothed later destroyed his spiritual roots and cast him into the Infernal Prison.

He loves precious jewels and storybooks most of all, and his greatest dream is to cultivate a human form and enjoy a life of wealth and luxury. Influenced by the stories he reads, Liuliu neglects his cultivation and spends every day dreaming of becoming a top scholar's wife someday. Longing for the human world, he nearly gets beaten to death after someone mistakes him for a bamboo viper. Liuliu vows that he'll never love a 3.5kFavorites3.4kClicks/ch1.8kGifts

   The main character is a bit stoic, and while there's a side couple, it's acceptable. I don't know why, but sometimes the third-person narration feels a little strange. However, Liu Liu (the main character) is incredibly cute, so it's worth watching. [Fist bump][fist bump]

8. 8 还 Such a Good Thing Exists? 还有此等好事？ Yi Cong Yin一丛音Danmei (BL)583k WordsCompleted Wu Lingchan was a prodigy renowned throughout the Three Realms, until his Golden Core shattered and his fellow disciples schemed against him during a secret-realm trial, leaving him gravely wounded and on the brink of death. When he woke, he was in the Demon Realm. The good news: he was actually the long-lost youngest son of the Demon Lord. The bad news: his father’s title as Demon Lord was all but empty, and the one truly in power was his adoptive son, the older brother he had in name only. H 344.8kFavorites321.4kClicks/ch671.9kGifts

   Sleepy! So noble! But actually, the fact that the dominant/submissive character is acting crazy is a bit of a letdown. There are people in the comments suggesting a secondary couple, which is a bit cringeworthy.

   I like Ling'er 😆 The seme (top) is a bit pretentious, and the uke's (bottom) character is actually quite different later on compared to the beginning, so I didn't like him as much from the start to the end. But if I watch it again, I'll be drawn to Ling'er.

Taking pity on him for being bullied, Crown Prince Zhao brought him into his care. He thought he had found a rough-cut gem, but it turned out to be an unyielding stone.

Unlike the other seductive vixens in his clan, he was a cool, aloof fox. He never flirted with anyone and never fawned for attention. One day, he discovered that he was living inside a cultivation novel, and not just any character: he was the ultimate cannon fodder. Not only was he doomed to misfortune at every turn, but his friends and family were doomed as well. [Ding! Hello! You have been bound to the “Fox Overlord” System.

    The protagonist (gong) is still pretentious in the early chapters (can we please stop pairing the cute, adorable shou with that old, donkey-faced, pretentious liar?). The ending, however, features a ridiculously thick arrow pointing back to the shou, completely catering to the stoic gong's feelings—I'm so angry! But the cute part of this book is that the shou refers to himself using the last two characters of his name!
