Liu Hai Kuan

557 years into the future In a fractured future shaped by AI wars and the Singularity Crisis, humanity turns to the stars for salvation. As Earth’s resources dwindle and megacorporations rule, powerful AIs like Origin and Aegis emerge—blurring the line between man and machine. But in the silence of space, ancient alien forces awaken. Amid this fragile peace, one soldier—Nathan Vale—stands at the edge of a new evolution: one that could unite humanity with AI… or erase it forever. The future isn’t just artificial. It’s alive.

When the bedroom door creaked open, revealing an illicit affair between a beloved partner and a trusted friend, a world shattered—this was a past life. Reborn, the same scene of betrayal unfolds, but now it feels absurd. Watching the friend weep with self-inflicted slaps and the partner cling pitifully, a gentle smile hides icy resolve. No longer the fool kept in the dark, a live broadcast exposes their humiliation, a meticulously crafted investment scam ensnares them, and feigned flattery at a banquet sets the stage for their downfall. Their schemes are turned against them, their obsession with fame and fortune used as bait in a web of revenge. A hidden camera captures their disgrace, a divorce agreement conceals cunning traps, and a high-society gala becomes their judgment day, with a live stream tearing apart their facade. As a syphilis diagnosis, rumors of an illegitimate child, and crushing debts bury the despicable pair like an avalanche, the avenger stands atop the ruins, only to find victory tastes hollow. The blood of betrayers stains the path of vengeance, but this rebirth—is it for destruction, or to reclaim a self once devoured? This war waged in the name of love has only just begun.

In a world torn by ambition and war, Liu Bei's legacy teeters on the edge of ruin. But when a modern-day strategist dies and wakes up as Liu Shan, the often-mocked heir of Shu, history takes a sharp turn. Armed with knowledge of politics, ethics, and war from the future, Liu Shan defies expectations. Instead of collapsing under the weight of his father’s legacy, he rebuilds Shu through reform, debate, and diplomacy—transforming the court into his true battlefield. Facing off against cunning rivals like Sima Yi, skeptical generals, and old-loyalist nobles, Liu Shan must balance ideals and pragmatism, words and war. Can he unite the fractured land—not by conquest, but by conviction?

Horrible Accident? Check Otherworldly Soul Yeeting? Check Taking over some schmuck's body who died around the same time? Check Unable to cultivate because the aforementioned schmuck's constitution is all messed up? Double Check In the world of Valresta where the great and powerful cultivate an energy called aether to get to where they are, Zhen Liu (Thomas Lee) is physically unable to despite having the qualities to do so. But due to a twist of fate, Zhen Liu is given the ability to create kaijin, strange and monstrous warriors to fight in his stead. By using this world's laws combined with his knowledge of Earth, watch as Zhen Liu stands above the so-called aether saints to become the one and only kaijin lord! "What the hell is a train"?! "Something that's about to kick your butt. Get him"! "Yes my lord"! Cover art done by JacKLYart on Twitter My Twitter: https://twitter.com/MajorMizako?t=23kOezglRcDjEUKcmpZQiA&s=09

She was the Eldest Legitimate Daughter of the General's Mansion, treacherously harmed and died a miserable death. Perhaps moved by pity, heaven granted her rebirth. She returned to four years earlier, not only possessing heterochromia that allowed her to see what others couldn't but also equipped with a portable space. She vowed to make those who hurt her and her mother pay in this life. He was a Prince with a Different Surname from Moli Country, holding military power and commanding awe in all directions. It was said that he had conquered most of Moli Country, and even The Emperor showed him deference. Legend had it he was a bloodthirsty prince who killed without blinking an eye. One day, she encountered a ragged but handsome man on the street, who chased after her, shouting, “My wife, my wife.” The woman said, “Damn it, who is your wife? Aunt isn’t even engaged yet! Go where it’s cool and stay there.” The man responded, “You are my wife, and I've decided to follow you for life.” "A feel-good story, both leads are strong, a pampering love story with 1v1 romance."

In her past life, Liu Qi was still a virgin after three years of her marriage. Her husband had chased her out of the house for the sake of his mistress. Liu Qi wandered the streets with her frail body. When mind-crushing darkness overtook her vision and she fell, a pair of large hands grabbed her in time. “Don’t be afraid. I’ll take you home. I won’t let go anymore.” It was him, Shen Nanxiao. So he had been in love with her all this while. Yet, her life was beginning to trickle away like an hourglass. ‘If there is a next life, I will love you properly this time.’ After being reborn, Liu Qi was a crying mess as she stared at the man in front of her. Liu Qi hugged him tight and said through tears, “No, Shen Nanxiao, don’t you leave me. I don’t hate you. I don’t hate you. I like you.” “What?!” Shen Nanxiao thought he had heard wrongly. He hugged her tight and whispered into her ear, “You’ve just lost the chance to leave.”

Sugar Crash tells the story of elite lawyer Eleanor Sterling who is forced to team up with Xander Cole, the fashion mogul she defeated in court three years ago, transforming from courtroom rivals into dangerous partners in investigation. When midnight lights in the evidence room catch his loosened tie, when legal statutes roll off his tongue like whispered sweet nothings, their professional facade begins to crack—her ironclad ethics unravel under his touch, while his carefully crafted playboy persona reveals vulnerabilities only she can see. In their pursuit of the truth, the clashes in the bedroom grow fiercer than courtroom battles, their interlaced fingers forming bonds tighter than any chain of evidence, until they finally realize: the most damning piece of evidence in this case was their undeniable attraction all along.

Chưa từng hối hận.. Thế giới này vốn không có hai chữ “ công bằng “. Họ cướp đi người mà cô yêu thương nhất, cướp hết mọi thứ của cô. Nhìn lại một đời, chưa từng hối hận..

कोरिया की सर्द सुबह 25 साल का junsoo अपने कमरे में सो रहा था। साइड टेबल पे पड़ा फोन बजा jinsoo नाम। आ रहा था। मोबाइल की स्क्रीन पे jinsoo junsoo का भाई 22साल का दोनों के पिता कोरियन और मां भारतीय है। Junsoo की नानी जो इंडिया में बीमार चल रही थी। उनकी मौत की खबर बताने के लिए jinsoo ने कॉल किया है। Junsoo अपनी फैमिली से अलग रहता और एक प्राइवेट कंपनी में नौकरी करता था।

Vào thế kỷ 22, thế giới đã không còn chia cắt thành những quốc gia riêng lẻ. Vì lợi ích chung, nhân loại gắn kết lại, nhưng chưa một lần thực sự hòa làm một. Dù công nghệ và ma thuật đã chạm đến đỉnh cao, song chiến tranh vẫn chưa từng dừng lại. Tại biên giới khốc liệt, những chiến binh vẫn ngày đêm đối đầu. Stratos tướng quân của Nation, và Lunamaria Whieblod chỉ huy của Organization, là hai biểu tượng của trận chiến không hồi kết. Họ chiến đấu không chỉ vì nghĩa vụ, không chỉ vì niềm tin, mà còn vì những giấc mơ sâu thẳm trong tâm hồn. Nhưng phía sau những trận địa rực lửa, những chiến lược quân sự đầy toan tính, là một bàn cờ chính trị đẫm máu. Âm mưu giăng mắc như mạng nhện, những bí mật bị chôn vùi sâu trong bóng tối. Và có lẽ, điều đáng sợ nhất không phải là kẻ thù trước mắt, mà là những bàn tay vô hình đang bóp nghẹt thứ hòa bình mong manh mà nhân loại hằng khao khát.

His life is irrevocably altered when a near-fatal encounter with a terrifying Rad-Scorpion reveals a mysterious augmentation system called ACEPHALON. The System transforms him from prey into a predator by giving him superhuman strength, speed, and knowledge. However, as he advances in level, Silas discovers more sinister realities: the ruins conceal pre-war atrocities, the ACEPHALON Protocol might not be the gift it appears to be, and the wasteland's mutations are not random.

Because what's growing inside him poses a greater threat in the wasteland than the monsters.

# FEMALE LEAD Female Lead: Kind, strong, skilled in medicine. She was not aware that she gave birth to a pair of twins five years ago, and she wanted to take revenge on the person who framed her. Male lead: Cold and domineering, a rich and handsome CEO. He had a soft spot in his heart for his children. He mistakenly thought that the female lead was a woman with ulterior motives. Five years ago, Wen Man was framed by her stepsister and spent an absurd night with a man she never met. She was pregnant for ten months but nearly died in the fire with her children. Five years later, she returned with the burden of a blood feud on her shoulders, and she was accompanied by a mischievous baby prodigy beside her. She had teamed up with her precious daughter to fight her scumbag father and get rid of her scumbag sister, turning the entire capital upside down. However, amidst their fight, how did she suddenly end up with another prodigal son? Moreover, her son insisted on forcing his CEO father to her door too. The son she got for free acted cutely and pretended to be pitiful, unhesitatingly throwing a tantrum to acknowledge his mother. The ultimate CEO Mo was confident of his victory. He immediately transferred the money. "Wifey, this is the empire that I've built for you!" Wen Man, "Get lost!" She had an intelligent daughter that she wanted to check the DNA of every man they met. She had an equally intelligent son who greeted her as his mother the first time they met. Did he detect her through their mother-and-son insight? Although their story was always full of twists and turns, sincere and sweet emotions were the best evidence of the protagonists' growth. Epilogue: A Conversation Between The Two Babies Mo Zhi did not know why, but the first time he saw this woman, he felt very close to her. He was convinced that this must be his mother. Wen Xiaoluo's eyes widened. "That's my mother! Where's your own mother?" A hint of coldness flashed across Mo Zhi's face. He answered gloomily, "I don't have a mother!" "How pitiful."Wen Xiaoluo sighed. Then, her eyes darted around. "How about this, we'll go look for your father tomorrow and make him marry my mother. That way, my mother will also be your mother!"

Una novela web de comedia y fantasía (o algo así, no estoy seguro ya) No hay héroes valientes. No hay batallas legendarias. Aquí lo que hay es Aric, un protagonista tan imbécil que mi terapeuta ya no me coge el teléfono. Esto iba a ser un isekai glorioso con sistema, poderes rotos y momentos épicos... pero todo se fue al demonio cuando le di vida a esa escoria inmunda, el protagonista más insoportable, flojo, manipulador y descarado que ha parido la mala planificación. Se niega a seguir el guion, sabotea la trama, y encima me habla. ¡El desgraciado me habla! Esta no es una historia heroica. No hay honor, no hay gloria, no hay redención. Solo caos, fanservice barato y diálogos ridículos. Así que si te gusta ver el mundo arder, los sistemas mágicos colapsar y los autores perder la fe en la humanidad y en sí mismos… esta es tu novela. Una que no debería existir. Pero existe. Y si decides leerla, recuerda: es tu culpa.

"Hai Tang? She's just the Hai family's foster daughter. I was only playing around with her. How could I possibly take her seriously? She can't even measure up to my status!" Upon hearing these words from Yu Heng's own mouth, Hai Tang finally realized how he truly saw her. She had liked this person for over twenty years. They had grown up together since childhood, with her always looking out for him, from running errands and doing homework for him to handling company affairs on his behalf. He had always accepted her kindness but pretended to be unaware of her feelings. Now, the words from his lips directly crushed Hai Tang's hopes. From that day on, Yu Heng's shadow completely disappeared. Even his friends around him were surprised. How could she let go so easily after following him for so long? At first, Yu Heng was nonchalant. In his eyes, Hai Tang's world revolved around him, and she wouldn't be able to survive without him. But as time went on and he waited, she never came back. When he started to panic and wanted to look for her, he realized that he couldn't find her, no matter how hard he looked. When they met again, his shadow was already entwined with someone else, and she had a radiant smile on her face. Yu Heng's reddened eyes were filled with tears as he asked the girl who used to belong to him, "Tangtang, I was wrong. Can we go back to the way things were?" Before the girl could speak, the man beside her stepped forward. His eyes filled with malice as he said, "I advise you to stay away from my wife."

After a bloody battle, Lionel barged into the restaurant with a "Closed" sign, alerting the owner, Margie. "Sir, we're closed!" Lionel was only seeking temporary refuge from his pursuers, but Margie was just ejecting him brutally. This baron had no alternative but to reveal his mesmerizing, menacing red eyes and fangs. Margie was captivated by the vampire's dark, handsome allure but also felt fear and tension. Summoning her courage, she uttered the first insult he had heard in a millennium: "What's so great about those fangs? You're just one vampire, aren't you?" Undoubtedly, this woman intrigued Lionel. But the reasons seemed to go beyond that. What's so special about this woman? Could a lost love be recovered? Will she heed reason, remain ordinary, and avoid the dangers coming one after another, or will she submit to his temptation and savor the sweetness of forbidden love?

MATURE CONTENT WARNING!!: These people be getting freaky in the sheets! "You think I haven’t noticed your eyes on me?" Kai En's voice was dangerously low, his lips curled into a cruel smile. "The way they linger— you can’t decide whether to kill me or kiss me. Am I right, little alpha?" ... For as long as Jun could remember, vengeance had been his only purpose. The last survivor of a disgraced family, he vowed to tear down the empire that destroyed his life, starting with its most prized jewel—Prince Feng Kai En.  Now, under the guise of Xiao Liu, a lowly servant in the prince’s retinue, he plans his revenge. But nothing could have prepared him for what awaited within the palace walls. Neither Xiao Liu’s sharp blades nor detailed plans were good enough to fall the man behind the title. Every failed assassination attempt and heated exchange left him more entangled with the man he was meant to destroy. Kai En—ruthless, untouchable, and powerful. An alpha in the eyes of all. Xiao Liu uncovered the prince’s greatest secret—beneath the façade lay something far more dangerous and vulnerable. Something Xiao Liu intended to exploit. Duty had always been Kai En’s burden. Yet Xiao Liu’s presence stirred emotions long buried—desires with no place in his world. Every attempt on his life only deepened the prince’s fascination, pulling him into the chaos Xiao Liu brought. As war looms and enemies close in, their dangerous dance intensifies. Desire grows where hate once ruled, pulling them into a storm of violence, lust, and something deeper. “You’ll never belong to anyone else,” Xiao Liu snarled, his lips finding Kai En’s neck again, biting down hard. “Not her. Not anyone. You belong to me.” Xiao Liu knows Kai En is the key to his revenge, but the more their lives tangle, the harder it becomes to tell if it’s vengeance he craves… or the prince himself. And Kai En must face the ultimate test that could break his kingdom and heart. Can Xiao Liu destroy the man he’s come to obsess over, or will he fall first?
