Upon Meeting Water

Xing Shuishui narrowed her eyes and pushed against his chest. The bed creaked softly at her movement, causing both of them to freeze. The house owner also paused briefly. Xing Shuishui became much more still. To prevent her from moving again, He Liansheng pinned her hand against the pillow as a warning. Now she couldn’t…

In Second Qingzhou, “Don’t you dare move.” He Liansheng lifted his wrist, forcing Xing Shuishui’s hand up with it. The young man spoke coldly: “Tell Hua Yue to come out and undo this cursed thing. I don’t care if you marry Du Dizhu.” Hua Wushan’s face turned red: “I’m not… I don’t like men!” The…

The Flower Jade Tower was more magnificent than Xing Shuishui had imagined. The dome stretched high, with countless levels and staircases reaching beyond sight. As people approached, golden paint gleamed on the eaves where mythical beasts held bells in their mouths. Colorful streamers hung from above, sparkling in natural light as if they had wandered…

Xing Shuishui lowered her gaze and stood behind He Liansheng. Had he also come for Qitong? She couldn’t forget how at the Guan family home, every time she made a mistake, Xue Sansi would always try to take responsibility, telling Sister not to worry.

The boat moved steadily through the water. Willow branches on the shore dipped into the river, creating ripples. The boatman tightened his raincoat, telling them it would take another night. As the sky darkened, Li Guanyu and Li Guanhang bid her goodnight and went to rest. Xing Shuishui glanced at He Liansheng. The young man…

As soon as they left, government officials quickly sealed off Luoshen Manor. The ruler expressed endless gratitude to them. As the Flower King withered, the Luoyu flowers planted in people’s bodies lost their vitality. At first, some were unhappy about the flowers’ death, but at the mention of Lingshan’s name, they could only go with…

“Stay close and don’t run off.” Another wave of intense dizziness hit. Xing Shuishui suddenly opened her eyes and sat up from the ground, back at the Luoshen Manor. Her palms were ice cold, and the sky was dark – she had no idea how long she’d been unconscious. Time flowed differently in the Chixuan…

His body turned cold and faded away. Xing Shuishui hadn’t even properly asked his name before he died. She sat on the ground, dazed for a long time. What a foolish person. Later, she fought with Du Dizhu for over a hundred years, battling whenever they met. The surrounding spirit mountains trembled in fear, and…

In the silent alley, needles and thread appeared from nowhere. The young man’s eyes held murderous intent as he said coldly: “Xue Jiuling, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you want me to stab you with this needle?” Xing Shuishui crossed her arms. A mere mortal was nothing in the face of magic. She…
