Maximum Comprehension: Taking Care of Swords In A Sword Pavilion

Han Muye, who had exceptional comprehension skills, was reborn into a cultivation world. He joined a clan which specialized in swordsmanship. He then became the keeper who looked after the swords in the Swords Pavilion. There were more than 100,000 swords stored in the pavilion. The keeper was tasked to clean all of them once a month. When Han Muge cleaned the Qinghe sword, he acquired a hint of Sword Qi. When he cleaned the Ziyan sword, he comprehended the swordsmanship, the Burning Plain, left behind by the original owner of the sword. He also acquired the Sword Qi of Burning Flame. When he cleaned the Shanyue sword, he comprehended the teachings left behind by Master Boulder and learned the Mountain Sword Technique. … Han Muye built up his Sword Qi bit by bit during the past 60 years working as a keeper in the pavilion. Throughout the 60 years, a disciple came to seek a sword in the pavilion, and he received guidance from Han Muye. The Sacred Maiden from the demonic clan attempted to steal a sword from the pavilion, but in the end, she left dejected and empty-handed. A swordsman came to challenge Han Muye, and he left with a broken sword. … 60 years later, the Celestial World invaded the mortal world. The disciple had become an exceptional Sword Deity. He wielded his sword and protected a part of the world. The Sacred Maiden had become the demonic clan leader. She sent a letter to the Swords Pavilion and led her clan to fight against the gods. The swordsman had achieved enlightenment in his swordsmanship. His Sword Qi rifled up to the sky. … The gods from the Celestial World loomed over the sky above. Han Muye slowly stood up. 100,000 swords followed him as he emerged from the pavilion. His Sword Qi could be sensed from 30,000 miles away, and his Sword Will pierced through the realms. He declared, “Today, I, Han Muye, will traverse the sky. I want to see who among the gods dares to invade this mortal world.”

Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot

When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered. Unfortunately, he’s so smart that he no longer has any will to live, which made him sickly, and he’s going to die soon… Later on, the fifth young master brought her into his room. When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine. She’s just a young girl and is spoilt. I have to take responsibility.” After Tang Wan married into the Jiang family, she only had one mission. She must give birth to his children before he died! Meanwhile, the fifth young master was puzzled. “You’re a gentle and shy girl during the day, so why are you so different during the night?” Tang Wan thought. ‘I have to make every second count. He won’t be able to live long.’ After she gave birth to his son and he became one year old, Tang Wan was prepared to become a widow. However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

I literally just binge read this book so consider my rating for the Updating Stability part as blank for now... Still, I am loving this book! The English may be a bit awkward due to an apparent language barrier, but the story still flows nicely and anyone can understand gist of the awkward parts easily enough if using at least 8th grade level reading-comprehension(might be overshooting that estimate a bit depending on regional standards for reading-comp). All in all, it's highly entertaining and I can't wait for the next chapter.

The best husband is not to be trifled with

Hard mouth, soft heart, tsundere star female lead VS vicious mouth, kind heart, affectionate humble CEO male lead * After spending five years, Shen Yicheng still could not understand why Tang Yi wanted to break up with him. It was obvious that everyone agreed to their love. Looking at her back view as she left resolutely, he swore that he would make her fall for him until she wished she was dead. That night, Shen Yicheng flew to an unfamiliar city. Over there, he was an honest, gentlemanly, gentle, and modest gentleman. Little did they know that he used to be a crazy demon that everyone was afraid of. When they met again, he gave her a jacket at the party, and she thanked him politely. Tang Yi,"Why are you putting your clothes on me?" I think… Shen Yicheng said,"Miss Tang, you're mistaken. This dress belongs to the old butler." Tang Yi was speechless. Shen Yicheng: " Don't dirty it. You'll have to return it later. But it's fine if you dirty it. Wash your hands clean and return it to the old butler." In a fit of anger, she threw the clothes into the river. That night, Shen Yicheng acted up again and asked the butler to put the clothes into his bedroom. * After the misunderstanding was resolved, he was like a dog skin plaster, thoroughly and vividly explaining the words "living a life worse than death". "Baby, baby." "Baby, hug me, kiss me, touch me." " Baby, I love you. I love you so much." "Baby, if you leave me again, I'll, I'll commit suicide!"
