Tang Xiaoqi's Cultivation Chronicle

The Chronicles of Tang Xiaoqi's Cultivation follows Tang Xiaoqi (Xu Xiaoqi), the sole survivor of Xu Lan Villa, on his journey of growth and vengeance. Born on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, he bears the family legacy of the "Purification Source." After his clan's annihilation by demonic cultivators, he is adopted by Qingxu Temple, transforming from a lazy, timid young cultivator into a hero destined to protect the mortal realm. The tale begins when he accidentally activates his ancestral jade pendant and a mysterious frying pan within a secret realm. From there, he experiences adventures in the Legacy Hall, survives crises at Qingxu Temple, uncovers the truth of his origins, and faces a devastating father-son confrontation—ultimately challenging the mastermind behind it all: the earth-shattering conspiracy of the Demon Lord's Remnant Soul. Along the way, he befriends a lively, treasure-obsessed Rabbit Spirit and fights shoulder-to-shoulder with his master and senior siblings, gradually uncovering the truth behind his parents' murder and the Xu family's destruction. Blending xianxia cultivation, coming-of-age adventure, and light comedy, the story delivers both passionate battles and ancient inheritances, alongside humorous and heartwarming companion interactions. It presents a legendary tale of a youth navigating the torrents of fate, making impossible choices, and growing ever stronger on his path to immortality.

Extra's Sign In System: The Hero's an Idiot!

I died on the battlefield with a bullet in my lungs, only to wake up strapped to a freezing metal table with a fanatic priest aiming a rusted scalpel squarely at my manhood. Apparently, I had transmigrated into the world of "Hunter Odyssey", a trashy modern fantasy novel I read during my last military deployment. Worse? I was not the protagonist. I was Draven Mordis, a disposable orphan extra captured by a dark cult, destined to be castrated and turned into a brainwashed, lobotomized pawn in the prologue. Meanwhile, the actual "Hero" of this world, Neville Hennesy, is a naive, self-righteous idiot. I am a Commander. I do not play games. War is about efficiency, survival, and eliminating threats permanently. Just as the cultist's blade descends to claim my future, a translucent blue screen shatters the darkness.

I became the villainess and married the cold duke

“~Author note: First time writing long story — thank you for patience while I learn and improve!~” "So naive, Melanie. So stupid." Those were the last words I heard before a bullet ended my life. Betrayed by my best friend and murdered by the man she loved, I thought death was the end. Instead, I woke up inside a novel. Not as the heroine. Not as a side character. But as Seraphina Helene Valemont—the villainess destined to be executed for treason by her own husband, Duke Draven Everfrost. Armed with knowledge of the original story, survival should have been easy. Avoid mistakes. Avoid enemies. Avoid the Duke. But the story refuses to stay the same. The Duke who was supposed to despise me begins protecting me… for reasons I don’t understand. Events I know by heart begin to change. Secrets buried for decades begin to surface. And the future I relied on becomes less reliable with every passing day. As political conspiracies threaten the empire and old legends refuse to stay buried, I find myself caught between a fate I desperately want to escape… and a man I was never supposed to trust. But the deeper I dig into this world, the more terrifying one question becomes: What if the most dangerous thing in this story was never the villainess? Because some monsters are not born. Some monsters choose to chain themselves. And some names should have remained forgotten.

Morally fucked

We've all read those mafia romances. The one where the godly handsome, picture-perfect, extremely ruthless mafia king rejects all the gorgeous, sexy ladies ( even though he's slept with half of them ) for the beautiful, innocent, untouched, holier-than-thou common woman who only marries him to pay off her sick grandma's medical bills and then slowly ends up falling for him. This is not one of those stories. Excerpt: Lynx stepped a little closer to the infamous Vixen, his intentions far from subtle. "Having a good night?" he asked, pretending to watch the couples swaying across the ballroom floor. "Why wouldn't I be?" Shayna replied without looking at him. "Merely observing," Lynx chuckled. "Are you missing someone?" he continued, staring ahead. "Are there no other beautiful women for you to entertain?" Shayna whispered, slightly annoyed. "There are," he admitted, his chest rising slightly. "But there is only one I can't seem to look away from." A faint blush crept across Shayna's cheeks before she turned her head. "And what exactly do you want from this lucky woman?" A smile tugged at his lips. "A dance, perhaps. And a smoke afterwards." .......................................................................... Shayna Hazel Alonso doesn't qualify as a lady by any known definition of the word. She smokes too much, curses like a sailor, and hates chivalry from the depths of her heart. A rather ordinary-looking woman, Shayna lives a double life as a corporate employee who just wants to get through the day and Vixen, the underworld's infamous prodigy, who unfortunately attracts the most questionable kinds of people. After years of betrayal—first by the father who sold her into prostitution, and then by the people she once believed were just like her—Shayna has finally learned not to trust anyone. And for the last time, she does not want to deal with any more shit. Naturally, life has other plans. So what happens when she ends up stealing from the one person nobody in their right mind would ever cross? In the underworld, everyone has a line they swear they'll never cross. Until they do. And that's when people become, for lack of a better phrase... Morally Fucked. P.S. The FMC of the story is strictly child-free and will remain so throughout the story.
