Opening the Sea 开海
The forty-fifth year of the Jiajing reign of the Ming dynasty, on the eve of the Longqing and Wanli revival. This was the best of times.

Everyone in the group addressed one another as fellow Daoists, and their profile names were all things like Palace Master, Cave Master, Perfected One, and Celestial Master. Even the group owner's lost pet dog was described as a great demon hound that had run away from home.

Looks Are Justice 颜值就是正义

And a heart set on stirring up trouble. (A showbiz story: good looks and real talent, redefining the pretty-boy!) P.S. The author wrote this after a heartbreak,
