Resumen

In the realm of Chiji, a mythical world where hidden powers lie. Chaos rules because a few became drunk with power and abused it. And inflicted a terrible balance upon the plains and brought chaos to Chiji. From this, opposition rises and plots. And so, the people forget the good deeds of a few power wielders. Somehow, in a magic-imbued past, where the longing whispers of Xinyi to Ming resonate, the whims of fate which will bring change can be heard. What did the whispers say? Governor Ming hates this arranged marriage to Xinyi and doesn't want to do anything with her. Will love bloom in time for the loveless couple as they work together? Only with curiosity may one find the answers... However, out from these devastating times, a Sorceress will bloom and slowly bring balance to this world. (Note: This is mainly a fantasy genre and not romance, although it started with the love story between the female and male leads. So, please don't focus on romance here. This is the journey of a woman who became the Sorceress.) ---- o ---- They were married through the imperial edict, and she expected much from it. However, on their wedding night… "In fairness, I'll be honest with you. I don't like you. I prefer to marry someone I choose. From this day forth, you're to live in Anjing Pavilion" said Lei Ming with no reservations. She was aggrieved to be disregarded and unfairly discarded. "Wait!" shouted Xinyi. Pestered, Lei Ming halted but didn't look back. "What now?" "I'm grateful for sending me there, Lord husband, but please don't miss sending my allowance and I promise I will not show up and bother you," said Xinyi and bowed piously. "The heck, this woman is totally shameless." Xinyi watched Lei Ming's back as he walked away. As he was out of earshot, she gave a careless smile and rested her palms on her waist. "This is totally unexpected. What a farce of a marriage. So what? I don't care too..." she said as she suddenly jumped and swirled around in glee. But… an unexpected encounter under the moonlight changed everything. Most of all, when he discovered he was meant to protect his wife. ----- o ----- TAKE NOTE: 1.) There is no sex but have some violence during wars and fights. Do know that romance is not the primary focus. Prepare for an adventurous ride in the story. 2.) The story is not totally under the Chinese background. This is a different world, and every nation had their own backgrounds. So, I don't follow the Chinese way of naming and calling of characters. Like using their full names when I mention them, even with the greetings. 2.) Please buy this author a coffee to keep me alert when writing and to help pay for the daughter's college fees: [ko-fi.com/elijoneb] 3.) Please support my latest book: Blue Hells. It's a sci-fi and game combo. If you love action and adventure, this is for you. ⁸ Note: *I want to thank Forsaken123, another author here, for his help and insights in the earlier chapters of this book. *My daughter, Asha, made the cover.

Chapter 1Prologue

A blue-haired woman wearing soiled and blood-stained clothes stood in the middle of a deep fissure on a vast land that once was a forest. A worn-out dragon with a lion's head lay beside her as it blew out air from his nose and attempted to stand up, but the woman laid her hand on the dragon's head, making the creature cease his efforts.

Men wearing furrowed brows and grim faces carried their swords and various kinds of weapons as they approached the upper ground and looked down at her. The smell of flesh and blood assailed their nostrils as they watched her stand in the middle of animal corpses.

A well-built man bearing his full armor and a red cape stepped in front of everyone and yelled, "Sorceress, just give up. This is your last chance to surrender. You have nowhere to go."

"I have told you several times, even if I die, no one would get my power but only the chosen descendants. The Chiangda's powers are not something taken by force. All of your efforts are pointless," the Sorceress replied.

"But we can let you live if you submit to me. Remember, we're already engaged. I'm willing to take you as my wife and protect you," said the man with sincerity. The men behind him murmured, but the caped man raised a hand and silenced them.

The Sorceress looked at the caped man with sadness and longing in her eyes and chanted. "Time of life, hear my call, send my powers to those worthy to carry this torch… Creator of life, take my life as an offering to bring back balance to this world."

While she started chanting the caped man was uneasy, but when she said the second sentence... "What are you doing? No!!!" and turned to the two chained men holding a staff. "Stop her, mages!" The two raised their staff, but they faced the man instead and shouted. "No, you can't have our sister. Die." The mages gave up their last life essences and lightning fell as straight as an arrow at the caped man, but he lifted his sword instinctively on time and retracted the hit and continued to run.

The armored men panicked, but a man beside the mages lifted his sword and killed them in one blow. All of a sudden, blinding lights engulfed the dragon and the Sorceress. The caped man jumped down and lifted his sword with a shining rosy red stone toward the vanishing woman. "No, I won't allow you," he said and bolted like a mad dog just to stop the Sorceress, but he was too late... He stood in an empty space.

His feet gave way and knelt on where she last stood. "Why? Why did you die than to be with me?" He clenched his fist, tilted his head, and screamed, "Why?!?"

----- o -----

Two centuries later.

As dusk took over in Fengfu City. A masked man ran at a speed of light to reach a mansion. At this moment, a blinding light covered the garden as dusk fell in the Xian Mansion on the Evergreen Hills. Suddenly, the light transformed to the other end of a rainbow falling on the snowy white garden. The newly wed Xian couple ran out from the house to witness a shining white bundle slid down from the rainbow's trail. Then, the light extinguished as fast as it came and the night became still.

The husband knelt beside the bundle and opened it. There, he saw a baby girl with black hair sucking her thumb fast asleep. Lady Xian Ai took the baby and saw a name written on her cloth, Xinyi. She looked at Lord Xian with pleading eyes. The husband was unsure because they didn't know of the child's origin.. but nodded after seeing his wife lovingly kiss the baby's cheek.

"Fine. Her name will be Xian Xinyi from now on," said Lord Xian Lang. The masked man, who hid behind trees, heard them and heaved a sigh of relief to hear the baby was safe and left.

Xian Xinyi grew as a bouncy and jolly baby. And the most unusual thing was animals gathered around her wherever she went. They suspected something, but they did not utter a word. Anyway, there was nothing else they had seen to bother their minds with.

She brought joy to the couple, but after her fourth birthday, Lady Xian got ill for no apparent reason. Doctors said she got sick because of the wild animals staying in their garden. Thus, Lord Xian drove away from the animals, saddening Xinyi. Yet Lady Xian grew weak every day.

Days went to a year of sickness, and on Xinyi's fourth year with them, Lady Xian died, but they kept it from the child. As they buried her outside her courtyard, Xinyi escaped from the guards and wailed in front of the mound of soil with the grave markings, 'my beloved Xian Ai' written on it. As Xinyi cried, light engulfed the mound in a second. When it died down, they saw an immense tree with golden flowers standing on the mound.

With this, Lord Xian understood what kind of child she was. Xinyi was a Chiangda, a person with magical ability and hunted by an influential sacred organization declaring that human beings of such sort were demon-possessed.

He  sent Xinyi to a place far from people with a woman name  Xian Yan. Later he remarried  and became the prime minister of Youshi nation.

Her second husband stared down at her and with a blank expression and voice as cold as water said, “ I have to practice a love-making scene, help me, dear wife.” Mo Qiang: “……” This movie that you are shooting is based on the Zerg apocalypse, don’t lie to me! With whom are you going to make love with? A Zerg? Take third! “ Huff, huff..this is the divorce agreement, sign it... I know that your company does not allow idols to date so here sign it,” she said to her third husband who was practising his dance moves. The mer who was dressed in a loose silk shirt and sweat dripping down his body took a look at the document that she was handing him and then hugged Mo Qiang. A second later she heard his sniffling voice while he peppered kisses on her neck, “ Wife you do not want me? Is that the new idol who attracted your attention, I knew it! I will take care of him!” “Put down that knife will you!” And why is the third prince of the imperial family who hated her to the bones coming after her with flowers?

Hellbound Heart

[WARNING: MATURE CONTENT] - Izabelle had underestimated the fire she thought she was going to play with tonight. But how could she ever have foreseen that the man she had happened to come across with does not play with just a small fire, but a whole inferno? ___ Excerpt: "You going through this marriage with me might as well be like you digging your own grave. Because the moment you start to want more from me, I will divorce you. And the moment you break your promise and try to fight me… I will ruin you and break you apart completely. Mercilessly. You will regret ever meeting this devil tonight." His threat was given in the same soft but cold voice. But Elle did not even flinch. Her gaze never faltered either. This man was ruthless, and she knew that clearly. His eyes that moment promised nightmares and darkness without any promise of respite. But no matter what he says now, it would still not change her decision. She truly had no other choice. "I understand now…" she said quietly, steeling herself. "Since you don't trust that I will keep my word, how about we do this? You prepare the divorce documents beforehand now and I'll sign it. That way, once you decide to divorce me in the future, the papers would already have been signed and there would be no way I can trouble you about it. You would just need to send it to the lawyers and have it notarized." A heavy silence reigned before his quiet disbelieving laugh broke the silence. "I'm at a loss for words, Princess Izabelle." He looked wickedly amused. But then he started nodding in approval. "Fine, princess. I will marry you." ___ Instagram account: kazzenlx.x facebook page: author_kazzenlx Discord server: https://discord.gg/UGTA3A4 Cover is mine so don't use it.

The Prince of Military Academy Is Actually A Girl!

After dying from a strange terminal illness, Ling Lan was reborn into a world 10000 years into the future. Although she dearly wished she could just live a peaceful and uneventful life in her new healthy body, fate had other plans ... Forced to disguise herself as a boy just so she could inherit her deceased father's premium military benefits, Ling Lan's journey to adulthood was full of challenges. After much difficulty, she finally turned sixteen when she could drop the charade. But before she could grasp her newfound freedom to get married and start her own family, a twist of fate results in her being thrown into the Federation's top military boys' school. With these twists of fate, Ling Lan had little choice but to walk further and further down a path of no return, one of cold and aloof dominance ... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ryuxenji the translator here. :3 Here are some other things you should know: 1) This story is NOT primarily a romance. QI's system right now categorizes all novels taken from the female novel Chinese site (起点女生网) as 'romance' without fail, regardless of whether they truly are romance. So, if you are here just for the romance, you might want to find a different novel. There will be some romance eventually, but most of this novel is Sci-Fi/Xianxia with a lot of world-building and character development. 2) I use British spelling. So, please ensure spelling errors are really errors before reporting them. 3) No matter what the release rate up top says, the guaranteed release rate right now is 1 chp/day (a.k.a. 7 chps/week). All else is extra at my discretion. (I'll try my best, but RL responsibilities come first.)

The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat!

'Kill monsters, eat meat' 'I mean, Kill monsters, save lives. Got it.' 'Tut, I could've sworn that the first one sounded better.' She wasn't a girl looking for freedom or self-righteous liberation by a hero, or whatever shit a girl who suffered for almost all her life would crave. -the shit of a life she was living was horrible, but it was bearable, and so she got used to it. Rather, instead of freedom, what this little missy wanted was money. Lots and lots of them so she never has to worry about the next day. Money - bountiful enough that when she has to spend, she doesn't need to look back or calculate her assets to see how much she has left. Money - bountiful enough to get all the fried chicken she could ever dream of. Yeah, you heard it, fried chicken. For those who did not have money to spare leisurely, getting fried chicken was like a pipe dream to them and she had been one of those unfortunate souls. A comfortable roof above her head and no worries as to when she would get ordered around to steal. No worries about when she would get her next meal-- That was her liberation. And she got it. Just that, she got it most absurdly. Awakened! Those were the people ruling the world, alongside beastly and deadly monsters who threatened the safety of average human beings. And those awakened call the shots. Alice never dreamed she would one day be awakened, and compared to others with their game-like system displaying their attributes and strength; she had a full-grown man whom only she could hear, watching her back at every turn and telling her what to do. He was kinda a pain in the ass but she couldn't complain. It was this gift he had bestowed on her that made her the most powerful Awakened there was with stats that even S-class awakeneds couldn't compare to. She was the boss, now. Mwa-hahahahaha. But life didn't go as easy and leisurely as she planned. With great power comes great responsibility, right? Well, in her case with great power comes great hunger. She couldn't go a moment without getting hungry and her stomach had become a bottomless pit. And to get food, she needed money, and to get money, she had to hunt monsters. The monsters plagued humanity, causing catastrophes and taking lives mercilessly. Those monsters, as scary as they may be, were her target and she had to face them head-on. The bigger the monsters the more money she would gain. Yeah, that was the plan, but... This guy acting as her system seemed to have other plans, putting her at the forefront of 'justice' and having her clean the mess he somewhat created. 'Ugh, I can already sense a shadow of foreboding. Someone, please tell me I'm not acting the main character role. I just want to eat, okay?'
