State of Story: - Volume 1 - A Whole New World [COMPLETED][FREE] - Volume 2 - Starting Anew [COMPLETED][LOCKED] - Volume 3 - The Grand Experiment [COMPLETED][LOCKED] - Volume 4 - Birth of the True World Sect [COMPLETED][LOCKED] - Volume 5 - Legacy of the True World Sect [COMPLETED][LOCKED] - Volume 6 - Worlds Beyond [ONGOING][LOCKED] Discord: https://discord.gg/PKbqtembQJ Expected Upload Freq.: 3 Chapters per Week w/ min. 1500 Words per Chapter _______ AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is a slice-of-life-ish story at its core. This is NOT a hot-blooded, high-octane novel filled with conflicts and fights around every corner. If that is the kind of story you are looking for, unfortunately, you will not find it here (at least not in the early chapters). The MC is a modern man, with modern sensibilities. Conflicts are handled civilly, or avoided altogether. There will be fights, but the story does not revolve around it. The MC is mature, and handles relationships tactfully. There will be a slow-burn romance in this story, and ABSOLUTELY NO HAREM. I despise that genre from the bottom of my heart! I also have some LGBTQ+ elements planned for the future (with side characters). English not first language. Writing mistake? Please forgive. Proofread many times before upload, problems not much. If issue, then point out mistake, I correct immediate. I am thank you for you're understanding :) ALSO: I started writing this story with one intention in mind, and that was to act as a parody of existing novels with similar themes. However, around CH25, I realised that my work was becoming too derivative and boring. So I pivoted and decided to make my novel its own thing. I believe that my work has become better because of it.

Good Evening, Mr President!

In the eyes of Chi Zuxu, Chi Yi is a typical delinquent with the three big ‘NOs’— no morals, no virtues, no principles. To her, though, he is a classic baddie who is heartless, soulless, and inhuman. After the girl breaks and climbs through his glass window on the second story, she peeps at him with an innocent demeanor. “Chi Zuxu, lend me the other half of your bed!” she wolf-whistles at him blatantly. The man admonishes with a scowl, “Chi Yi, aren’t you shameless!” Inside the cinema, as Chi Yi’s little hands restlessly grope the man’s body without chagrin, she tells him smilingly, “Chi Zuxu, I want to do bad things with you!” Holding a look of woeful disgrace, he knocks her head. “Chi Yi, aren’t you embarrassed!” It is a lovely love story between a barefaced and a reticent. But, Mr Reticient, please don’t cry when Miss Barefaced finally slips away.

This is one of the better novels in webnovel. The staory is good and and had all the good elements of a horror and mystery setting..I think the only reason it's ranked so low is because it's a horror type and not many people use webnovel to read a horror story

In the realm of ninja, the legend is born

Xinggong Ling sat on the seat of honor and looked around at all the evil forces 'clones. She crossed her fingers and placed them under her chin. The mirror reflected a cold light as she said solemnly," A while ago, the vault of the Xiao Organization was robbed. Xiao Nan's 600 billion detonation talisman was stolen. The murderer is among us. I hope that person will take the initiative to step forward." Phantom Dance Shi Wupeng shrugged his shoulders," You know me, my main body. I've been staying in Limitless City every day without leaving my house. I didn't even agree when that bastard, Fate, wanted to pull me out to bask in the sun." The Sacred Lord, who was still in his statue form, said helplessly,"Original body, you understand me. You haven't even returned the talisman to me. Do you think I have the ability to cause trouble like this?" Aizen Yuusuke pushed up his glasses and smiled gently." You know me, my main body. I haven't finished creating the Void Ring and the Corpse Soul World. I don't have time to care about other things." Gudazi spread his hands and said innocently," You know me, main body. If it was us, the Chaldeans, who made a move, it would not be just 600 billion. Even that person is mine." ……
