Those critics are always saying the most ridiculous things.” In 1798, Cardinal Lanci was asked by a reporter about his past with the exiled princess, the last scion of the demon race, and the recent signs of the demons’ resurgence. He replied: “I’ve done far too much to defend world peace. I’m quite certain that, under her leadership, the demon race has no chance of restoring its kingdom.” … In the winter of 301Votes505kRecs2.5MFans

The Biggest Mess in History 史上第一混乱
I'm truly unlucky, really. Other people transmigrate, while I can only be transmigrated into. Other people pick up girls, while I can only be picked up by girls... At my umpteenth pawnshop, I received a series of clients named Jing Ke, Li Bai, Guan Yu, Qin Hui, and so on, leading to one hilarious story after another. This book is packed with comedy, and cultivation, transmigration, urban life, and romance are all indispensable. That is why it is titled The First Great Chaos in History.
