Latest Ancient China Novel

Yuan Li was originally a wisp of ghost fire, drifting daily in the Underworld's Forgetfulness River. All spirits and monsters desired to devour her, calling her the "Underworld's Tang Monk's flesh." Fortunately, the Underworld King picked her up and made her a bedside candle, allowing her to survive in seclusion.

When the God of War visited the Underworld for sightseeing, Yuan Li was blown by a gust of evil wind onto his robes. Contaminated with spiritual energy, the God of War ascended to immortality in his bath, instantly becoming the Sweep Star Lord, the first deity to save money to build his own temple!

She didn't know who made such shoddy clothes, but the majestic God of War's robes still had loose threads, pinning her firmly in place. While she was a wisp of ghost fire, Yuan Li had heard various little ghosts talk about this God of War, which made her tremble when she materialized in his bath, leaving her with a trauma of the blade, and a desire to save money and flee.

When Heng Jin was undergoing tribulation in the mortal realm, the Heavenly Emperor specifically assigned her to accompany him with a high salary, and also gave her a mission: to make sure he became a short-lived king!

After three lifetimes of tribulation, her heart became entangled with him, yet he, against all odds, secretly sought a Soul-鎮魂簪 (Soul-鎮魂簪) for his old flame. Yuan Li painfully helped with this love, which then uncovered the cataclysm of the Six Realms from 30,000 years ago:

An evil abyss arose and wreaked havoc, and the Demon Realm's Young Lord, Li Wan, used forbidden arts to create eight demon-suppressing hairpins. She sacrificed her life to suppress the evil, and the Six Realms returned to peace. After three lifetimes and her return, the "white moonlight" turned out to be...

"If I can revive Wanwan, even if it goes against the heavens and requires tearing out my own ribs, I am willing." "Amidst the vast expanse of blooming flowers on the banks of the Underworld, if even one flower contains your spirit, I shall spend eternity kneeling and searching for it..."

Ten years ago, the Ling family, imperial physicians hailed as the "Medicine King," were massacred for their alleged involvement in a shocking case of "poisoning the imperial heir." Ling Shenyi, the family patriarch and the protagonist's father, committed suicide in prison, falsely accused. The sole survivor was the eldest daughter, Ling Zixia, then only six years old, who was secretly sent to a rural villa.

Ten years later, to balance the power in the court, the emperor humiliatingly bestowed the grown-up Ling Zixia, as the "daughter of a criminal," to be a concubine to Zhao Wenxuan, the eldest son of Prime Minister Zhao Wuji. Zhao Wuji was the one who orchestrated the "Ling family's unjust case." Zhao Wenxuan was also Ling Zixia's former fiancé, to whom she had been betrothed.

This imperial decree was intended to completely erase the last trace of the Ling family, forcing Ling Zixia to endure a humiliating existence in her enemy's mansion. The entire capital awaited to watch this spectacle. The Prime Minister's residence, this "golden cage" that once destroyed everything she held dear, became her sole battlefield for revenge.

Golden Finger Setting: Ability Name: Pharmaceutical Transformation.

Ability Description: Ling Zixia's body can act as a "transformer" for medicinal properties. Through direct or indirect physical contact, she can reverse the nature of medicines.

Poison to Medicine: She can transform highly lethal poisons into beneficial remedies. This is her core ability for self-preservation and disguise.

Medicine to Poison: She can convert harmless tonics, or even antidotes, into deadly poisons. This is her ultimate weapon for counterattack and revenge.

A sickly devoted Demon King X a manipulative heroine. Demon King Pei Wan recently had a problem: it seemed the eldest daughter of the century-old demon-hunting family, Li Yuan Ying, had taken a fancy to him.

Miss Li always wanted kisses and hugs, and even said she would protect him. He couldn't let himself fall for her, because he was only pretending to marry into the Li family to kill Li Yuan Ying. But the more he looked at this woman, the more beautiful she seemed.

On the wedding day of Li Yuan Ying, the divine maiden of the demon-hunting family, her new husband was incredibly handsome, but his hands wore blood bracelets that sealed demonic power.

She discovered that the mysterious power in her husband's body could help alleviate the pain of her cold illness. Coincidentally, there were still many things she hadn't accomplished before she died. "I'm sorry, husband, I can only use you."

Song Mian worked overtime until she dropped dead. When she opened her eyes again, she had transmigrated into the daughter of a disgraced official. Her whole family was crammed into a dilapidated thatched hut.

Winter was approaching, and they had no cotton clothes or quilts. The kitchen only had a little food donated by others, clearly not enough to last them. She looked at the empty hut, distressed, unable to even produce a single copper coin. Song Mian: “...” What a desolate transmigration.

She planned to first fill the rice jar, starting with making delicious food to sell at a stall. Later, the imperial court changed, and a new emperor ascended the throne. The top priority was to clear her family's name. Many people thought that after years of decline, the Song family might not recover its former glory.

Who knew, the Song family was rather reluctant to be reinstated. They had built a farm in the outskirts of the capital and were living a joyful life, "planting beans beneath the southern mountains, picking melons in the western fields." Song Mian even enjoyed a life of "awning, fish pond, pomegranate tree, white cat, fat dog, and a handsome husband." Having gotten used to such a relaxed life, who would want to risk their neck in a 996 grind again?

Song's Farmhouse Fun became popular in the capital, with dishes like bobochicken, bridge-ribs, fried chicken, oden, pastries, and sponge cakes... They were so delicious that people suspected something illicit might have been added. This alarmed the Dali Temple Minister.

He disguised himself and infiltrated, determined to sweep away all darkness. However, he met several familiar pairs of eyes. "Your, Your Majesty? Grand, Grand Secretary? Gen, General?" The few people who were already drooling from the delicious food: "..."

Yun Xiangye, while boating on a spring day, lost her footing and fell into the lake. She was rescued by Gu Yan, a wealthy young master who was recuperating in Jiangnan.

To repay his great kindness, Yun Xiangye offered herself in marriage and became Gu Yan's wife. Three years later, they were blessed with a daughter, and Yun Xiangye's married life was happy and fulfilling.

It wasn't until Yun Xiangye returned to Chang'an with her husband that she discovered her husband was actually the son of a princess, and his father was the King of Ning, a powerful figure with eminent military achievements.

She also learned that her husband had a childhood sweetheart in Chang'an, Lin Bolan, the prime minister's daughter, who was waiting for Gu Yan to divorce his wife and rekindle their childhood romance.

There was also the delicate cousin, Wei Zhan, who lived in the Princess's mansion and had long admired her cousin. She vowed not to marry anyone else and longed for her cousin to divorce his wife and marry her.

Furthermore, Fu Anran, the younger sister of the Crown Princess and known as the most beautiful woman in Chang'an, also harbored affection for her husband and coveted him.

Princess Nan'an from the Chu Royal Family and Xu Mengqi, the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei, had both proposed marriage to her husband through matchmakers three years ago, and had remained unmarried, waiting for him to return to Chang'an.

Yun Xiangye then realized that all the aristocratic families in Chang'an believed that because of her humble origins, she would eventually be divorced. Everyone in Chang'an was counting the days until Yun Xiangye was divorced by Gu Yan and relegated to a concubine.

There was even a betting pool in Chang'an, with odds of one to ten that Yun Xiangye would be divorced within three months. Yun Xiangye stepped forward, placed a thick stack of 100 taels of silver notes on the "divorced within three months" bet, and upon returning home, wrote a letter of divorce to her philandering husband, saying, "Sign it."

"Don't delay my winnings!" Gu Yan was left utterly bewildered: "???"

Su Wei transmigrated to become the cheap wife of the Shen family in Nanqiao Village. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw an old woman holding a bowl of dark, mysterious poison, about to feed it to her cheap husband.

The man on the bed glared furiously at Su Wei: "Poisonous woman, even as a ghost, I won't spare you..."

Su Wei was speechless. "No, no, it's not me, it's that old woman..."

The old woman turned to look at her: "Why are you still standing there? If he doesn't die, how can you marry Young Master Dong?" Su Wei was again speechless. "Why does this scene feel so familiar?" A flash of inspiration suddenly struck Su Wei's mind.

The next second, she saw the old woman covering the man's face with a quilt. Su Wei was utterly speechless.

Facing a home that leaked on all sides, Su Wei could only roll up her sleeves and work hard to earn money, but her cheap husband had other ideas.

Su Wei: "Eat." Shen Yan's inner thoughts: She wants to poison me to death.

Su Wei: "Put on your clothes." Shen Yan's inner thoughts: She wants to roast me to death.

Su Wei: "Let's divorce, I'll set you free." Shen Yan's inner thoughts: The poisonous woman wants to ditch me for Young Master Ximen Dong? No way.

The "Ghost Hand" divine healer actually transmigrated to become trash? But what if she's trash?

She is the eight-element genius on Xuanwu Continent, and she is also the divine-grade spiritual root on Xuanjie Continent!

She is the one who contracted divine beasts and fierce beasts; she is also the one who can control thousands of puppets!

She is a spiritual plant master, she is an alchemist, and even an artificer, a talismancer, and even a formation master!

With the identity of a student, she was actually asked to teach the academy's teachers how to refine elixirs and medicines!

What other identities does she have that haven't been revealed yet?

One day, the Demon Venerable adult, with the Nine Heavens as a betrothal gift, brought the entire city of little ones to marry Su Hexiang!

Everyone could only be envious!

In my previous life, I was the most downtrodden legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's residence. My birth mother died young, and my stepmother, under the guise of "it's for your own good," pushed me into a marriage with a dissolute young master.

After marriage, I endured endless cold stares, and when I died of illness, I couldn't even get a sip of hot soup.

Reborn back to my coming-of-age ceremony, my stepmother again brought up the marriage proposal. I publicly overturned the teacup and exposed the ugly truth of Young Master Wang owing gambling debts.

My stern father actually tore up the marriage contract and even invited three tutors to teach me to read. My little tyrant brother guarded the school gate every day, fiercely protective, and my elder sister even sneaked rouge into my room, saying, "Being beautiful is the absolute truth!"

I completely let loose. I led noble ladies to form a poetry club, changing stale couplets into doggerel; I rode a fast horse to shake off arrogant young masters; my casually written chapbooks were wildly snapped up by booksellers.

When a good-for-nothing brought engagement gifts to my door, I threw out his brothel bills: "Want me to be your creditor?"

The day I met Jiang Yan, the new top scholar, he was squatting on the street with me, vying for sugar paintings. He laughed out loud at my crooked dragon, yet he handed me his phoenix painting, saying, "Accepting you means I'll protect you when you get into trouble from now on."

Now when I go out, my younger brother carrying snacks follows behind me, along with a maid holding an umbrella, and my hidden father who sends secret guards. Those who once bullied me can only watch as Jiang Yan and I ride off on horseback.

In this life, I will turn all my past grievances into honeyed sweetness!

Office worker Chen Jingxi transmigrated to become the timid and weak Princess Consort Su, who had been a living widow for three years.

A living widow, a princess consort? Isn't this the ideal life: rich with no husband?

Before she could even be happy, she was informed that Prince Su, who had been away at war, had returned.

The day Prince Su returned, Chen Jingxi was immediately scolded and even had her neck squeezed.

Alright, alright, are they all treating her like she's easy to bully? If she didn't deal with him, her Dao heart would be unstable, she believed.

So, on Prince Su's first day back in the capital, he got into a fight with his princess consort. Prince Su even threatened to kill her. Yet, Princess Consort Su lived more dashingly day by day.

Snippet 1

Chen Jingxi: "You like me?"

Chu Jinghuai yelled at the top of his lungs: "Yes, this prince likes you."

Chen Jingxi: "I remember you wanted to kill me."

"This prince was just scaring you, how could I possibly kill you?" Regardless of what he thought at the time, he absolutely could not admit it now, even if it killed him.

Snippet 2

Chu Jinghuai: "Chen Jingxi, how dare you go to the Huayue Brothel behind this prince's back!"

Chen Jingxi: "This is not a big deal. I merely made a mistake that all women in the world make. I like looking at muscular men, I like looking at handsome guys. Rest assured, I am a person of principles. No matter how much I look outside, you will always be number one in the princely manor."

Chu Jinghuai's face went dark...

"We can't save all those who suffer. There's no other way, let's teach them to save themselves."

Shi Yanqing, a renowned doctor in the Xiao Dynasty and the fourth young lady of the Shi family in the capital.

Her daily routine involved studying ancient medical texts, treating patients, and running an unprofitable pharmacy. Unexpectedly, the Zhou family fell into misfortune, and the engagement was about to be broken.

Shi Yanqing thought, "Whom to marry? If I marry Zhou Hanzhang now, the Zhou family will probably be endlessly grateful."

During their journey south, Zhou Hanzhang's younger brother suffered a relapse of a Gu worm infestation, his life hanging by a thread. Shi Yanqing, with just a book, a basin of chicken blood, and a knife, successfully saved him.

In Yunshui County, hidden witch doctors lurked. When a friend was critically injured, she recognized a ghost doctor as her teacher and, with exceptional talent, learned the knowledge of witch medicine in the shortest time.

However, witch doctors controlled the lives and deaths of the common people. Shi Yanqing resolved to oppose them, opening another medical clinic to serve as her arena.

Zhou Hanzhang never forgot his grandfather's teachings that an official serves the people. When the Zhou family suffered, he had intended to go to the place of his demotion alone, but she remained by his side, deeply moving him.

Later, he shed countless tears in front of her, his heart already completely fallen. Reading Guide: 1. Not much romance, more plot-focused and daily life. 2. Witchcraft includes: feigning divinity, psychological hypnotic suggestion, Gu worms, and other methods, divided into white and black witchcraft, with good and bad aspects.
