Scary Solstice

Mr. Feng Shui's Folk Anecdotes

Set against the tumultuous backdrop of China's Republican Era (1912-1949), this novel chronicles the uncanny adventures of Li Beidou, a feng shui master born under a portentous celestial alignment. His birth coincided with the winter solstice—a liminal moment of cosmic transition between Yin and Yang—marked by an omen: every black dog in the village went mad, hurling themselves to their deaths beneath the ancient huai tree at the village entrance. Hailing from a lineage of funeral attire shopkeepers who clothed the dead, Beidou's destiny shifted during a feverish delirium when he encountered the Yin-Inquiring Matriarch, a spectral figure who inducted him into the shadowed arts bridging the mortal realm and the afterlife. The narrative weaves through encounters with Yin Arts—esoteric rituals to commune with spirits—and the perilous Nine Yin Techniques, a forbidden corpus of necromantic lore. Each chapter unravels bizarre phenomena: sentient funeral paper effigies, geomantic curses haunting ancestral tombs, and markets where the dead barter with spirit coins. Blending historical verisimilitude with supernatural intrigue, the story illuminates the clandestine world of Yin-Yang practitioners—custodians of cosmic balance—through Beidou's trials. From exorcising poltergeists in Shanghai's jazz-age parlors to decoding cryptic feng shui patterns in war-torn villages, his journey reveals how the veil between worlds grows thin in times of human strife.

The Fragile Beauty Can See the Ghost

Su Nanzhi was born with a heart condition and was once told she wouldn't live past 18. But she survived, and with her extraordinary eyes, her heart was trained to remain untroubled. The first time she saw Jiang Beiyu, she heard a song beating "thump thump" in her chest. He was so handsome. Su Nanzhi fit the image of a delicate beauty all too well, and she happened to have been nurtured in a rural village for over a decade. Her uncles, brothers, and sisters in the family looked at her as though she were a performing monkey. That is, until this performing monkey shed all her covert coats... Theater 1: Owing to Su Nanzhi's heart condition, her classmates were always afraid to say anything too stimulating, even speaking to her in soft, gentle tones. Later, at dawn, a few classmates who loved horror films bumped into Su Nanzhi at a midnight showing in a movie theater. Classmate: “…” Is the tolerance for heart disease this high now? Su Nanzhi: Will you listen to my explanation? You might not believe it, but the ghosts in the movies aren't as scary as the ones she saw when she first started out. Theater 2: The handsome and distinguished young man read Su Nanzhi's old journals and found out how she had drooled over her own face for more than just a day or two. He frowned as if he had encountered a problem trickier than Goldbach's Conjecture and finally couldn't help but ask her: “Are you sure you're just into my face?” “My body is pretty good too, do you want to check it out?”

The Extra’s Survival: Logging into the Game Master System!

The Apocalypse descended as the world turned into a game. And while everyone panicked, I couldn’t help but wonder if there was something wrong with my eyes. [Logging into the Game Master’s Account!] And my ‘oh-so-average’ destiny, changed into ‘is this a cheat life?’ Kind of destiny. [Would you like to Create a Skill? GM Points will be consumed!] While others struggled to kill a single goblin, I was searching for stronger monsters. While they were happy with getting even a random weak skill, I was customizing what kind of skills I needed. Even my Talents and Gifts can be customised. The only limit was my imagination. Heck, even the hidden quests that people would trigger randomly were present in front of me even before the scenario began.  It wasn’t fair by any means. But isn’t that how life is already? [Would you like to make changes to the quests in the next scenario? GM Points will be consumed!] Is this how an apocalypse is supposed to be? I don’t know. I just tried following the script in front of everyone while trying out my cheat in hindsight. Don't get me wrong with the ‘pig eating tiger’ kind of thing. I just don’t like attention. I would rather stay with two trusted friends than with 10 fake ones. [Would you like to Initiate a Custom quest for the Players? GM Points will be consumed!] And for the players who were bullying the ‘weak’ me. One may even wonder how they ended up losing half of their stats and skills in a randomly triggered impossible type of quest.  Fate can be truly scary, you know?  One must always be careful of it.

Rebels Of The Dying Sun

In a kingdom scorched by the sun and ruled by blood and fear, Nyx was meant to die. The fire should have claimed her, just as it did her family. Instead, she was spared—only to be caged in a nightmare far worse than death. Raised as the reluctant ward of a ruthless general, she became his slave, his heir, and ultimately, his executioner. But no one knows the truth. No one suspects the girl with fire in her veins and a bow on her back. They only see the obedient knight. Then she meets him. Emris is a phantom in the desert, a ghost that whispers of rebellion. He walks like a prince but wears the skin of a traitor. The leader of a fractured resistance, he is a man of quiet cruelty and unspoken burdens, wielding blood as both a weapon and a curse. He leads the rebels seeking to overthrow the ruthless king. A warrior with the power to command blood, he is a ghost of the past—one he does not remember. Mysterious, calculating, and feared, he fights for freedom, unaware that his lineage ties him to the throne he despises. When their paths collide, they are enemies, destined to destroy each other. But destiny does not care for their hatred. It does not care that they stand on opposite sides of a war that will drown the sands in red. The past is clawing its way back to life, and soon, the truth will rise with it. The lost prince. The fireborn knight. The king who kills with death itself. Who will burn and bleed in a game where power is survival and love is the cruelest weapon?

Help! I Got Reincarnated into a BL Novel… as a Pretty Boy?!

Jin Ha-Yoon was just a regular girl—a chef, a hardcore BL fan, and an expert at fangirling over hot fictional men.

Determined to dodge her tragic fate, Ha-Yoon makes a bold, chaotic, and possibly suicidal decision—she volunteers to marry the Dragon Emperor herself. Sure, he’s scary. Sure, he could kill her at any moment. But at least he’s the main love interest of the story, meaning he’s too busy being in a slow-burn romance with another man… right? Now, she just has to: Survive the Dragon Emperor’s deadly mood swings Avoid being discovered as a fraudulent nobleman Resist falling for the insanely hot and brooding emperor Figure out why he keeps looking at her like that …Wait. Why does the Dragon Emperor seem interested in her instead of his intended BL love interest? This was NOT part of the plot!

I Awakened The SSS Class Abyssal Warlord

In 2026, the world changed forever. The global birth rate dropped to zero, leaving humanity on the brink of extinction. For five years, fear and chaos reigned, but then—world peace was achieved. Perfect health, long lifespans, and abundant resources silenced the panic. But deep down, everyone knew this was merely the calm before the storm. Then, a system-wide announcement echoed across the planet: "People of Earth, the period of grace is over. You will now be summoned to the Main World to complete your trials." Every human was forcefully transported to an unfamiliar world, their survival dependent on a newly awakened Class System. Warriors, Mages, and Utility specialists emerged, each ranked from the most common F class to the unique SSS class, determining their skill potential. Among them was Oliver, an ordinary college student who found himself wielding the rarest of all Warrior classes—SSS-Class Abyssal Warlord. Unlike others, he was granted a terrifying ability: Unyielding Rebirth – If slain in battle, he resurrects every 24 hours, making him an unrelenting force on the battlefield. But power alone isn’t enough. The Main World is merciless, and Earthlings are its newest pawns. Their only way forward is through Trials, ranked from 1 to 12, where they must clear dungeons, defend cities, and even fight for the survival of entire worlds. The catch? If they fail, monsters will be unleashed upon the Main World. As Oliver fights his way through this ruthless new reality, he must decide: Will he rise as a legendary warlord, carving his name into history? Or will he fall into the abyss, swallowed by the endless trials that await? The battle for survival has begun. And for Oliver, death is not the end.
