Rabbit Must Die

Ever since a despicable rabbit arrived at the Heavenly Court, banners have been hung up in the residences of all the major Immortals: beware of fire, theft, and rabbits. At the same time, the God of Food's Complete Rabbit Cooking Guide started selling like hotcakes. One could often see a bunch of Immortals waving various magic treasures, chasing a rabbit all over everywhere, shouting, "Although group beating is unfair, we can lose face, the rabbit must die!" Passerby A: Why is that rabbit so freaking famous? Almost all the Immortals know him, is it because he's cute? Passerby B: No! It's because he's a jerk!

Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Bringing the System to the Beast World

He had actually transmigrated by hanging on water. Congenitally deficient and weak chicken, even collecting would be despised. Weak and unable to reproduce, males would avoid them. Life in the Beast World was very tough. Fortunately, the system cheated, and life was no longer bitter. Eat some medicine and become awesome. The tribe's big shots came to meet. But his Tong's temper, uh… "Tong Zi, give me a bowl of braised pork rice." Wu Yue's eyes were sparkling. "No." "How about a braised eggplant?" "No, I haven't." "Mantou?" "No, I haven't." "Then what do you have?" Wu Yue took a deep breath. [Nothing.] The system replied coldly. "Then what use do I have for you?" Wu Yue squinted. The system exploded,[I told you I'm a Lifestyle System!] Lifestyle System! You don't even move. You're sitting here asking for food. What do you want to eat!" The system exploded, and Wu Yue cowered… Our slogan is to eat, wear, and live a comfortable life. We'll build a house happily, and we'll happily farm. Yiyi's Beast World is a 1v1, so don't be careless and come in!
