After being reborn in the ancient times before the Great God-Conferment War, Li Changshou becomes a minor cultivator. He is neither destined for great things nor great woe. His only dream is to live a long life as a cultivator. In order to survive in the cruel Primordial Times, Li Changshou tries hard not to accumulate any karma—killing inevitably leads to feuds. Thus, he always plans thoroughly before doing anything and never allows himself to walk into dangerous situations. He hides his trump cards well, trains himself in escape techniques, refines poisonous pills, and masters his mystical abilities. Before making any moves, he takes on an extremely steady demeanor. Yet, every move of his ends up earth-shattering. Once he is done, he will disappear without a trace. Li Changshou originally plans to remain hidden and safe in the mountain. There, he is supposed to cultivate until he ascends to immortality. However, everything changed one year when his master seems to think that their lives are too peaceful... He takes in a junior sister...

Ye Chen transmigrated to a fantasy world by chance. He was well-aware of how dangerous this world was, so he kept a low profile and quietly cultivated in Xuantian Holy Land. He tried his best not to get involved in any affairs for fear of getting caught up in any vendetta. If he encountered problems that he could not run away from, he would ensure that he annihilated all his opponents as swiftly as possible. He showed no regrets for staying aloof and no remorse for killing his enemies. Hundreds and thousands of years later, Ye Chen’s disciples were domineering existences in the world, and their influences spread far and wide. On the other hand, Ye Chen was steadfast to his principle of not drawing any attention to himself. … One day, the Heavenly Path experienced significant changes, and all the demons and gods throughout history attacked Ye Chen simultaneously. Ye Chen was forced to defend himself. He drew out his sword and easily eradicated all the demons and gods, resulting in the collapse of the Heavenly Path. Ye Chen blinked his eyes in disbelief and said, “Was that all?”

In the ancient era before the War of the Gods, Li Changshou was reborn. He became a humble Qi-refiner with no extraordinary fate or destined calamities. He harbored only one aspiration – to achieve immortality through cultivation. To survive in the brutal primordial world, he meticulously avoided karma, turning enemies into dust with every kill. He strategized before taking action and steered clear of unnecessary risks. Holding hidden cards, practicing evasion techniques, mastering alchemical poisons, and wielding divine arts, he remained as unmoving as an old dog. When he moved, it was as if the heavens themselves trembled, and when he departed, he did so silently. Originally planning to peacefully cultivate and become an immortal in the mountains, Li Changshou's life took an unexpected turn when, one year, his master, in a moment of profound contemplation, unexpectedly brought back... a junior sister for him.

For a while, they just looked at each other and smiled through their phones. “Do you think there will ever come a day that we’ll have an argument so big it affects our relationship?” she suddenly asked. Jeff’s heart thumped. Was this her opening up to him about her worries? “Never. That day will never come,” he answered confidently. “How are you so sure?” Tina asked back. “I’ll never let you go to sleep angry. When there’s a problem, I’d like for us to communicate about it. If it’s something on my end, I’ll try my hardest to fix it. If it involves one of us giving in, I’ll do that gladly." "If you’re not ready to talk about it immediately, I’ll give you time to cool off while still taking care of you and reminding you about how much I love you daily.” “If the problem is on your end, I’ll try my best to fix it as well. I’ll take 9999 steps, so you just have to take 1 step towards me.” He wanted her to know that in their relationship, she was the most important. He wanted to be someone that she could willingly rely on. “You look like you’re ready to drag me to church right now, hahaha.” She laughed at how serious his face got the moment she brought up their relationship. Before he could reply, she added, “how can I just take 1 step? That’s too unfair to you. I’ll take 10 steps, so you can take 9990 steps.” He couldn’t even get mad because she had the brightest smile on her face as she teased him. “Whatever my queen says is right.” He gladly obliged her.

CURRENTLY WORKING ON A REWRITE. THE STORY WILL STAY ROUGHLY THE SAME BUT WILL BE WRITTEN FAR BETTER WITH SMOOTHER FLOW AND PACING. YOUR PATIENCE WHILE I WORK ON THE REWRITE IS APPRECIATED.

THE STEADY HAND Saga One — Frontier Awakening Jack Al’Trades wakes aboard a ship that should not exist. A kilometer-long armored carrier-superdreadnought drifting alone at the edge of an unfamiliar galaxy, the Steady Hand is far beyond anything the fractured frontier civilizations around him have ever seen. Worse still, someone is quietly feeding piracy, destabilizing entire sectors, and hiding behind layers of proxies and manufactured chaos. Jack did not come looking for war. But he recognizes the shape of one forming. Accompanied only by Athena — the ship’s emotionally real and dangerously intelligent AI — Jack begins navigating the uncertain politics of Coalition frontier space, where independent mercenaries, exhausted station administrators, and nervous military officers struggle to understand whether the Steady Hand represents salvation, catastrophe, or something far more dangerous. As rumors spread, the crew slowly grows: Gold-ranked ace pilots, professional chaos engineers, emotionally scarred specialists, mercenaries, outcasts, and survivors. Together, they begin pulling on a thread hidden beneath frontier piracy and black-market logistics. What they uncover is far larger than simple criminal activity. Entire civilizations are being manipulated. Wars are being cultivated. And somewhere beyond the frontier, ancient powers are treating smaller nations like pieces on a strategic board. But aboard the Steady Hand, power comes with rules. Protect civilians. Preserve life where possible. Do not initiate war. If forced into conflict — finish it. Blending grounded military science-fiction, operational realism, large-scale fleet combat, slow-burn character development, political intrigue, and found-family storytelling, The Steady Hand is a cinematic space opera about restraint, responsibility, and the terrifying weight of wielding overwhelming power responsibly. Sometimes the most dangerous thing in the galaxy is not aggression. It is disciplined restraint. --- Written with AI assistance. This is an original fictional work.

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
