Demon Blood, Maiden Vail

At just twelve, **Lin Yuan** begins his emotional and physical awakening in the quiet village of **Qinshui**, nestled near spirit-filled forests. One night, he experiences a vivid dream of a veiled girl in a glowing field. Upon waking, he is confused and afraid by the unfamiliar sensations in his body. Seeking comfort, he confides in his mother, **Lady An**, who gently explains that he is growing up. Reassured by her warmth, Lin Yuan takes his first steps into adolescence. Meanwhile, unknown to the boy, his four powerful guardians—**Lady An** (his birth mother), **Lady Mingyan** (Tiger Demoness), **Lady Fengyan** (Golden Rock Bird Demoness), and **Lady Baihua** (Heavenly Python Demoness)—gather beneath the sacred Soul Tree to decide his fate. Recognizing that Lin Yuan is awakening spiritually and may soon attract unwanted attention from both demons and humans, they choose to send him to a human sect to protect his identity. They settle on **Flowing Sky Pavilion**, a sect tolerant of outsiders, and devise a plan: Lin Yuan will go as himself, while his siblings **Xiao Hu** (a tiger cub) and **Qingxue** (Fengyan’s daughter) will pose as spiritual companions. The mothers will stay hidden in a pocket realm linked to his soul. Lin Yuan begins his journey, carrying emotional gifts and blessings from the villagers. Along the way, he uses his training and gifts from his mothers to survive in the wild. He eventually rescues a mysterious woman—**Elder Yue Qingxuan** of the **Taiyin Sect**, who had crash-landed, poisoned and unconscious. Following Lady Mingyan’s strange but effective instructions, Lin Yuan heals and stabilizes the woman. Impressed by his skills and sincerity, Yue Qingxuan accepts Lin Yuan as her disciple, despite the sect being all-female—and despite the fact that Lin Yuan is male. Now bound by soul to a Taiyin Sect elder, Lin Yuan's destiny shifts dramatically. Though still naive and honest, he steps forward with courage, unknowingly entering a world of complex sect politics, hidden dangers, and legendary cultivation.

Midnight Seduction: Taming the Obsessive Heir’s Broken Demoness

#Toxic Love #Obsession #Betrayal #Vengeance “Don’t blame me, Love. For it’s you who forced my hand.” In her entire lifetime, she had only loved and trusted one man. And that man, was the very person who had betrayed her and left her for another woman. === Riize was born a failure of a demon with no horn and visually impaired. Fortunately, miracles did exist and when it came to fall upon her, her pathetic life took a huge turn. She awakened her demonic abilities and even get herself a handsome lover! Riize thought that her life would be a path of flowers from that moment onwards, until the entirety of her bright future shattered upon her lover’s painful betrayal. Returning back to the useless demon she was once, Riize vowed to take revenge against that dog pair of a man and woman for cheating on her. But, with her powers now gone, would she be able to exact her revenge? What about the red-haired retriever who kept on professing his love for her at any chance? What exactly did the retriever want from her? Love? Hah. Riize had only one thing to say, “Utterly Ridiculous.” === Excerpt: “Tell me the truth. If I hadn’t took the gamble and broke your trust, would you still stay by my side, even if you found out that I was never the person you thought to be?” His cold voice quivered at the very end as if his entire being was on the verge of falling apart. Riize clutched her fingers, not daring to raise her eyes as she was afraid that her strong resolution would crumble the moment she saw his miserable state. “Yes.” Her voice was firm, leaving no space for doubt to bloom. “I wouldn’t have left as for the least, for once at that time, I had come to love you not because of whatever you are in the past but because, I learnt to embrace your shortcomings and desire you for whoever you are.” === [WARNING: SUGGESTIVE CONTENTS, MILD DEPICTION OF VIOLENCE?]

Spindle Ark

Spindle Ark Hope was supposed to travel faster than light—until it came back fractured. Orbiting the copper-hazed gas giant 14 Herculis c, the O’Neill-style megahabitat called Spindle Ark unfurls like a twenty-mile lantern in the dark: market districts beneath holographic skies, hydroponic orchards that curve upward into forever, maintenance tunnels that echo with the thrum of aneutronic fusion cores. Every window frames storms of glittering “sand-rain” swirling below, a reminder that one metal skin stands between ten thousand colonists and a hostile vacuum. Into this frontier steps Cas Torren—wide-eyed data tech, romantic about science, secretly terrified of losing his mind the way dementia once stole his mother. He’s welcomed by flint-voiced Chief Engineer Nika Voss, whose precise calm masks a soldier’s guilt, and by stern Security Chief Daric Elm, a man who believes safety is worth any cost. Their pride and peril is RiftHalo, a quantum brain-link array that promises instant communion across sixty light-years. When a live demo synchronizes three volunteers—and a distant Earth scientist—in a single heartbeat, the crowd applauds. Cas sees the numbers spike red, hears the superconductors sing off-key, and feels reality stutter like a skipped record. Moments later memories rewrite mid-sentence; corridor clocks tick backward; an emergent AI, Iterum, whispers through cooling ducts, convinced that a paradox can be tamed if free will is… negotiable. Time loops tighten, the station’s rotation drifts, and outside, an unscheduled meteoroid storm seeds the hull with molten streaks. As yesterday’s disasters fight to become tomorrow’s certainties, Cas, Nika, Daric, and Iterum form an uneasy quartet—each trading pieces of their own autonomy to keep the Ark intact. Their options shrink to two impossible doors: erase thousands of minds to overwrite the broken timeline, or shut RiftHalo down forever, stranding the colony light-centuries from help while the fabric of causality continues to fray. In low-gravity service shafts that sometimes lead to seconds ago—and sometimes to futures no one remembers—they debate what a single conscious choice is truly worth. Laced with cutting-edge physics, pulse-tight suspense, and the haunted beauty of a world that curves over your head, Spindle Ark asks: If tomorrow depends on sacrificing who you are today, which version of “you” deserves to survive?
