My husband had been working away for seven years. I traveled all the way to find him. But the moment I arrived, an old man stopped me and said coldly, “Derek? That’s my son-in-law.” People around him laughed, saying Derek was the town’s famous “perfect husband”—totally devoted to his wife. I froze. Maybe it was just a coincidence. Same name. Until I showed them his photo. Everyone nodded at once. “Yeah. That’s him.” My blood turned cold. No one knew I was his wife. They all thought I was some supervisor here to assign him work. Then a well-dressed woman walked up with a warm smile. “You’re here to see Derek about work, right?” “You can wait at our place. Our son has a fever—he took him to the city hospital.”

"After the deaths of her parents, Su Qingqing, daughter of a merchant family in Great Xia, is taken in by her uncle’s household in Nanzhou Prefecture. Facing financial ruin, her uncle forces her into marriage during her mourning period to fund his son’s wedding. Fleeing the arrangement, Su Qingqing disrupts the imperial procession of Emperor Xiao He, who—moved by her plight and reminded of his beloved Shen Min’s similar hardships—grants her a token of favor, permitting her to serve in the palace after her filial mourning ends. Misinterpreting the emperor’s compassion as romantic interest, Su Qingqing storms the palace with two friends, Zhao Jiaojiao and Fang Yuanyuan, expelling court ladies, presiding over morning court from the throne, executing officials, and appointing her unqualified friends as Ministers of Revenue and War. Her reckless actions escalate: she castrates the Crown Prince of Great Liang, sabotages a diplomatic marriage alliance, and declares war on multiple nations in front of both emperors. A bedridden Emperor Xiao He watches helplessly as Su Qingqing seizes the throne, humiliates his uncle Prince Yu with the imperial disciplinary rod, and later deposes the Dowager Empress, sending her and the true empress Shen Min to a brothel. When Great Liang invades in retaliation, Su Qingqing’s disastrous ""campaign""—a lavish sightseeing tour—ends in her capture and the annihilation of 100,000 troops. To save herself, she betrays Great Xia, leading the enemy army to the capital. Only Emperor Xiao He’s last-minute recovery and heroic speech rally the people to repel the invaders. Su Qingqing is sentenced to marry a Xiongnu chieftain as punishment, while her accomplices are publicly executed. "

While working in the fields, Zhang Qiang and Li Xiu follow a strangely behaving weasel into an abandoned mansion in the mountains. Inside, Zhang Qiang accidentally steps on a small mound, uncovering a rosewood box containing an ancient bronze mirror. The mirror is eerie—its surface is covered in green rust and blood-red streaks, while its back bears a grotesque nuo (exorcism) mask design, exuding an unsettling aura. Despite warnings from villagers like Old Man Chen and Granny Zhang about the mansion’s curse and the mirror’s dark nature, Zhang Qiang takes it home, hoping to sell it for profit. From then on, a series of bizarre events unfold: midnight knocks with no one there, the weasel’s repeated eerie appearances, livestock dying mysteriously, and ghostly wails echoing from the village at night. Most horrifyingly, no matter where Zhang Qiang discards the mirror—whether in a river, the wilderness, or deep in the mountains—it always returns, sometimes even reappearing on village walls, surrounded by terrifying nuo mask paintings. Tormented, Zhang Qiang and Li Xiu return to the mansion at night to investigate. Shrouded in thick fog, the estate is even more sinister: scratching sounds come from the well, shadowy figures loom in the mist, and Zhang Qiang glimpses glowing eyes in the well’s depths before finding a bloody handprint on his face. Granny Zhang reveals that the mansion once belonged to a nuo dance performer, and his descendant, Erzhu, was driven mad by its dark history. Zhang Qiang stages a fake plan to melt the mirror, then lies in wait—only to catch the stalker: Erzhu, who had been pretending to be insane. Erzhu confesses that he fabricated the hauntings to protect his ancestral home and the mirror (a family heirloom meant as a dowry). The mirror’s “returns” were his doing—he secretly retrieved it and staged the creepy scenes. After Zhang Qiang apologizes sincerely, Erzhu takes the mirror away, and the disturbances finally cease.

Ji Yan, the deposed crown prince of Great Zhou, was framed and exiled to the desolate frontier city of Mocheng. There, he awakened the Infinite Resource System—and its first unlock was a bottomless supply of plain porridge. At that very moment, the garrison troops were on the verge of mutiny due to starvation. Ji Yan fed them with his porridge, winning the loyalty of General Yun Wuyue and the entire army. The corrupt grain merchants, backed by the treacherous Concubine Wan, hoarded supplies and fed the refugees with bran and mud. Ji Yan exposed their fraud, executed all four merchants on the spot—even when the Second Prince rushed in to stop him—and earned the heart of the people. Concubine Wan struck back. She ordered Ji Yan to take in a plague-stricken heavy cavalry unit, hoping the disease would destroy Mocheng. Ji Yan unlocked unlimited antibiotics from his system, healed every soldier, and won the allegiance of their commander, Jiang Muxue. Then came the Wolf Clan—one hundred thousand invaders. Ji Yan unlocked unlimited Gatling guns. The wolves were annihilated. During the battle, he discovered a shocking truth: his grandfather, the Grand Marshal, had been murdered by the Emperor in league with the Wolf Clan. Enraged, the Emperor sent a million troops to crush Mocheng. Ji Yan, armed with Gatling guns and rocket launchers, crushed them instead. With just fifty elite warriors, he stormed through every checkpoint and reached the capital. In the imperial hall, he presented proof of the Emperor’s treason, purged the court, forced the abdication, and freed his imprisoned mother. Crowned emperor, he distributed endless grain across the land, crushed thirty-six rebellious warlords, conquered the northern barbarians, and unified the realm. History would remember his reign as the Golden Age of Emperor Yan.
"Chi Fengmian, the once-feared Demon Emperor, is betrayed by his own mother and brother—only to reawaken in the frail body of Su Mian, a sickly disciple of the righteous Xiaoyao Sect. Though his body is weak, his soul still carries the sword intent of a supreme devil, and even a fraction of his power could shake the Eastern Continent. Yet, burned by past betrayal, he hides his strength, distrusting even his new mother, Ji Yunhe, who begs the sect leader for medicine to save him. But Sect Leader Ji Changling cares only for profit. To avoid conflict with rival sect Qingfu Sect, he forces Ji Yunhe to marry its cruel leader, Ye Qingshu—exchanging her dignity for the Blood Spirit Grass that can cure Su Mian. On the wedding day, as Yunhe endures public humiliation—leashed like a dog—Su Mian learns the truth. Too late. The medicine forbids him from using his power for one critical hour—but when Ye Qingshu’s blade descends on his mother, the Devil’s patience snaps. What good is a righteous sect… when only hell’s fury can save the woman who gave everything?"
