A mysterious pill is turning mortals into cultivators… and killing them in the process. Xuan Tian is the Celestial Realm’s coldest, most lethal weapon—born to serve, trained to kill, and loyal to a god who forged him into the perfect blade. He doesn’t question. He doesn’t waver. He just obeys. Ling Yu is a powerless mortal girl who talks too much, thinks too little, and just tried to scam her way into immortality. She has no plan, no cultivation, and no idea what she’s about to walk into. When fate (and poor life choices) shove them into each other’s path, they uncover a conspiracy that could destroy all three realms. He wants order. She brings chaos. He follows duty. She dives headfirst into danger with a grin. And together? They’re about to start a war no one saw coming—if they don’t strangle each other first. His Little Chaos, Her Iron Wall is a slow-burn cultivation fantasy full of tension, secrets, sword fights, and one girl who refuses to stay in her lane.

At Ravencroft Academy, secrets are currency—and Elena Vale is broke. When seventeen-year-old Elena wins a scholarship to Ravencroft, an elite boarding school tucked into the stormy cliffs of Scotland, she expects stone walls, stiff uniforms, and too many rules. What she doesn’t expect is Julian Alden: heir to a vast aristocratic fortune, flawlessly charming—and already engaged. But Julian isn’t the only mystery Ravencroft has to offer. Theo Moreau, the brooding, artistic loner with a French accent and a haunted past, seems determined to protect her… or warn her. As Elena is pulled deeper into the school’s dark traditions, her heart becomes torn between two dangerous boys—and the lies they’ve wrapped themselves in. She’ll soon learn that the most dangerous walls are not the ones built of stone… but the ones built around the heart. In a world where power is everything, falling in love could be her biggest mistake.

Alice Howard's life hit rock bottom at the age of 35—she was framed by Mark, her trusted superior and lover, wrongfully accused of embezzlement, and her reputation was completely ruined. Eventually, she chose to take her own life. However, fate gave her a second chance: she was reborn and returned to the crucial moment at the age of 27 when she had just joined JPMorgan Chase. Burning with hatred for Mark and the board of directors, Alice launched a sophisticated revenge plan. She concealed her true intentions, maintaining a superficial relationship with Mark to gather evidence while befriending a new ally, Sarah, and using her memories from the future to climb the career ladder step by step in the workplace. Meanwhile, the appearance of Ryan, the CEO of a tech company, stirred up the situation—he could be either an ally or a new trap. Caught in the whirlpool of power, love, and betrayal, Alice must stay calm, unravel the layers of mysteries, and finally expose the truth in the showdown at the board meeting. But the path of revenge is not the end. When Ryan's true identity and deeper financial conspiracies come to light, a new storm is brewing...

At dawn. The light of dawn lingered, hesitant to arrive, while the remnants of the setting sun had long faded into darkness.

A lantern bearer strolled forward.

Whispering to Lorian: None have succeeded before… The light that controls the world… You cannot accomplish what greater ones couldn’t… The voices grew as more arms latched on, covering his entire body, leaving only his face untouched.

Among these survivors is a boy, a resident of a city hidden behind these walls.

Chapter Title: Chapter 1: The Whispering Walls --- Chapter Text (Paste This): The storm had not stopped for three nights. In the silence between the thunder, she could hear it again — those faint whispers inside the walls. Helena gripped the edge of her hospital desk, eyes locked on the cracked plaster just above the patient bed. Room 313. No one lasted long in it. St. Delora’s Mental Asylum had been standing since 1892, tucked away beyond the woods outside Black Hollow town. People said it was cursed. Helena didn’t believe in curses. Not until she met Patient 47. He was quiet, pale, and watched the walls like something might crawl out any moment. And every night, at exactly 3:13 a.m., he whispered one thing: “They’re waiting in the house.” When she asked him which house, he simply smiled and said, “The house that listens.” Then he scratched a drawing onto the padded wall. A house. Long windows like eyes. And dozens of ears, carved into the bricks. The next morning, he vanished. The staff blamed it on a clerical error. No one else remembered admitting him. Not even the security cameras showed anything. But Helena had the drawing. And a voice had started whispering to her, too. In her sleep. In her walls. She knew she had to go to the house. The same house from the drawing. The one no one dared talk about. The one that appears in the dreams of madmen. The House of Whispers.

My name is Evren Lestir. Once, I was a girl who saw the world in colors so bright, they could warm even the coldest soul. But life has a cruel way of testing even the brightest flames. After losing everything I held dear, I drifted through a hollow existence—numb to the world, blind to its colors, and deaf to its call. I thought nothing could reignite the light I lost. Then The System found me. With shimmering blue panels and words that hummed like perfect promises, it pulled me into another reality—a maze of endless worlds stitched together by missions, monsters, and the illusion of progress. A labyrinth where forward was the only option. At first, I thought it was salvation. Each step, each battle, each drop of blood painted forgotten colors back into my world. I grew drunk on the hues I had lost, chasing the sky’s beauty with a childlike wonder, believing the fields and hills before me were all there was. But a torch shining in a narrow corridor can make even a prison look like a palace. In truth, I was a frog at the bottom of a well, gazing at a fragment of a sky—naïve to the infinite world beyond the gritty stone walls built by The System. But after a mistake in that omnipotent construct, I found myself peeking through a crack in the wall, presented with a fragment of the truth I never saw. This maze was never meant to be escaped. It was never meant to be climbed—not even to glimpse the sky beyond. Yet through that slender crack, a flicker of sunlight ignited something long-buried within me—a spark of the campfire I once carried. I will chase that light. I will see beyond these walls. And I will remember the world they tried to bury. Even if every strike I make against the walls sends ripples of ruin through the maze.
