Shades Of The Exorcist's Smile

"I stayed..and left to save you. Because I was afraid."— My zhù fù. --- Since the day Lìngxiāo was born, he has carried a strange condition that never lets him show pain or anger. As an independent exorcist with no controlling clan above him, he roams the land with two burning aims: to save the common people from darkness, and to clear his own name—from his own father's murder. But was he even killed? Or was it just another betrayal of the eyes? One day, his hometown Yún Xi calls him back. A town haunted by a Red Robe Ghost—where no exorcist has survived. Or were they simply removed? Carefully. Silently. Without a trace. When Lìngxiāo arrives, a silent surprise awaits him. The veil was one, but the souls were nineteen. The history held the deaths of twenty legendary family members. But wasn't it supposed to be only one ghost—the one hunting the very heir of the clan in nightmares? Chóng Fēi. Within his discovery, he realizes: the ghosts weren't just villains. They were victims of another villain too. Now, roaming with no tongues to speak, they use every way they can to communicate with him. During his investigation—through a ballad of needles and fear, all for the sake of keeping the heir alive—the one-sided puppy love of Chóng Fēi grows into deep longing and love. It becomes his reason to walk slower. To share belongings. To share feelings. A mystery not older than the town itself. Yet no one knows it—except the ones who plotted it, sitting among them all along. There was more than one mastermind. The unknown one seems above the main other too. Can someone who roots for power and legacy move for the song bird whose nature is flying around, singing quietly from a corner of a tree, searching for his origin? --- Fall Of The Royal Blue: [BONE SIDE NOVEL: Coming after the whole series of Shades Of The Exorcist's Smile] Trying to make someone permanent against the rules was always one of the biggest mistakes anyone could ever make. At the time of 5AD, there were five gods who ruled the universe: Earth, Emotion, Death, Life, and Fate. The Lord of Earth was the highest of them all. Fate was the fifth-ranked god—known as Xiǎo Jiǎng. At his peak, his followers outnumbered the other three classes combined. His kindness was so overflowing that the afterlife became unbalanced: Heaven was full, and Hell was nearly empty. But during his era of greatest glory, while visiting a distant land in disguise, he met a young boy named Kagetsu—a boy who did not belong to that world. As time passed, Xiǎo Jiǎng fell for him. The boy melted his icy yet gentle heart. The Lord of Earth saw everything. Knew everything. But nothing showed in his gaze more than the vibrant leaf-green dimmed with something heavier. Until— Xiǎo Jiǎng broke the ultimate rule: he made a human immortal so they could stay together forever. And that was when he fell. The Lord of Earth ensured they would stay together and die together—until Xiǎo Jiǎng himself let go. A curse followed him into every timeline, every universe, every new skin he was born into. This is the tale of a man who kept falling, kept running—but never stopped loving. --- Welcome to the most polished and complete world of System Tearstone! This is the second half of the Bone Side Novel series—a slow burn centered around Lìngxiāo's journey. Here, I explore an important (but not main)Tearstone backstory—Lìngxiāo and Chóng Fēi.

The Untainted

The Untainted Synopsis What happens when beauty refuses to be distracted? Rihannat was born into a poor home — not poor in love, not poor in values — but poor in material things. She is the only child of her parents, raised in a small but peaceful household where faith is stronger than fortune and character is worth more than gold. From childhood, her parents planted two things deep inside her heart: fear of Allah and self-respect. And she grew… beautifully. Not just in face — but in mind, in discipline, in grace. Rihannat is blessed with striking beauty that turns heads without her trying. But beyond her beauty lies intelligence sharp enough to silence rooms, morals firm enough to resist pressure, and faith strong enough to withstand temptation. She carries herself with quiet dignity, never loud, never desperate for attention. As the saying goes, a blossomed flower will always attract butterflies. And butterflies come. Suitors from wealthy homes. Sons of businessmen. Men who promise comfort, luxury, and a life free from struggle. Some come sincerely. Others come because they see her beauty as something to possess. But Rihannat has a different mindset. She believes beauty alone is not an achievement. She believes that when beauty fades — and it always does — what remains must be substance. Skill. Impact. Legacy. “Beauty without accomplishment,” she often tells herself, “is a decorated emptiness.” So she rejects them. Not because she is proud. Not because she is heartless. But because she refuses to exchange her future for temporary comfort. She hardens her heart against distraction. Against emotional manipulation. Against the whispers of Shaytan and the glitter of the world. While others chase relationships, she chases purpose. Her dream? To rise. To break the chain of poverty in her family. To become a successful, respected career woman. To give her parents a life where they never have to worry about bills again. But the journey to the top is never smooth. Along the way, she faces betrayal — from people she once called friends. Jealousy grows in silent corners. Smiles hide competition. Support turns into silent rivalry. And then… there is him. The one who loves her quietly. The one who watches her strength and admires it from a distance. The one who helps her in secret — stretching her wings without taking credit. Supporting her dreams without demanding attention. Protecting her name without announcing his loyalty. He hides behind friendship. Because he is afraid. Afraid that if he speaks too soon, she will reject him like the others. Afraid that his heart will not survive the blow. Afraid of losing even the small space he occupies in her life. So he waits. He waits while she builds. He waits while she fights. He waits while she conquers. And in his quiet waiting, he becomes the wind beneath her wings — unseen, but essential. Will Rihannat ever discover the silent love beside her? Will she allow herself to feel — after building walls so high? Will success change her? Will betrayal break her? Or will faith carry her through it all? The Untainted is not just a love story. It is a journey of ambition, faith, discipline, heartbreak, growth, jealousy, sacrifice, and pure love that asks for nothing in return. This story will make you smile. It will frustrate you. It will make you angry at injustice. It will make you emotional. And it will remind you that sometimes, the purest love is the one that waits without pressure. So… Let’s begin this journey together. New episodes drop every day at 7:30 PM. Are you ready? Say yes if you are. And please — respect creativity. Do not plagiarize this book. — Olukoya Zainab Follow on Facebook: Queen Zainab Stories.

Honkai: Star Rail: The Genius Envoy Who Brings Knowledge to All Worlds

Traversing the Astral Express across the star rail, amid worlds teeming with madness, years ago—driven by his longing for the cosmos—I boarded the train to witness the boundless wonders of the universe. Those were the years Hermes still remembers most fondly. He once believed he would continue advancing further along the Path of Trailblaze. Yet just as he was on the verge of becoming a true Envoy of the Path, the unexpected fall of an Archivist caught him completely off guard. His pioneering journey came to an abrupt and silent end. Soon after, disaster struck his homeworld. Forced to return, he devoted himself to researching a planetary restoration technology suited specifically to his homeland, and in doing so, he truly set foot upon the Path of Erudition. Later, during his travels among the stars, Hermes encountered a civilized planet that had been swallowed by the Nihility. The sight left a profound impression on him, inspiring him to study the phenomenon in depth. In time, through relentless and self-driven research, he uncovered a fragment of truth regarding Imaginary principles and quantum mechanics. This breakthrough granted Hermes a unique and elevated authority aligned with the Path of Erudition. At that very moment, a voice both familiar and unfamiliar echoed within his mind— [Ding! The wisdom of Trailblaze has joined the chat group.] And thus, the Envoys of Wisdom began their journey across the countless worlds.

Dual Cultivation: Gathering SSS-Rank Wives in the Cultivation World

« MATURE CONTENT » I was supposed to check my stats. Instead, I checked my sins. One scroll through the system notifications and I realized I’d made the dumbest, hottest, most catastrophic mistake in cultivation history: [Heir Conception Confirmed: All three blessed wives have been Impregnanted.] [Gestation: 3 months. Offspring inherit 50% divine bloodline + maternal elemental affinities.] [Legacy Skill Unlocked: Imperial Seed – Children born at Core Formation minimum. Twins/Triplets chance +70%.] Translation? I bred the maid who poisoned me, the archer who swore she’d never kneel, and the ice queen who hadn’t even been kissed… in one night. Now they’re all carrying little demigods—and Heaven just flagged me as Calamity Incarnate. I wanted a quiet moment to breathe. Heaven handed me a countdown. 3… 2… 1… The sky split like a bad promise. Tribulation clouds boiled over the horizon, rings within rings, and every ring had my name carved into it. Lightning didn’t just flash—it wrote scripture across the firmament, every stroke a sentence: Zhao Tianlong, Calamity Incarnate. And behind me, three heartbeats answered in perfect sync. "Husband, stand back; you should save your energy to fight us in bed..." I glanced at the notifications again, just to suffer. [Heaven’s Will: Surveillance Active. Concealment: Impossible.] [Designation: Catastrophe-Grade Variable. Tribulation: Immediate.] [Bonus Condition Detected: Three Heroines Pregnant. Difficulty Multiplier: x10.] [Note: Heaven disapproves of speedrunning destiny via breeding.] "H-husband, why is the sky thundering..." "The clouds seem to be darkening with concentrated Qi." "It's like it is spreading across the land to take you on, Tianlong." I almost laughed. Almost. My naive wives, they can’t see how the clouds look beautiful, like a beautiful woman. "Hah… I make fountains out of heavenly beauties with my thing," I spat, a chuckle forming while getting disgusted, cute, lovely glares from my heavenly wives. "So if even Heaven itself dares to spread her legs at me, all she’ll do is scream louder," I said, lifting my middle finger towards the sky with a grin that almost ruined my hot husband image in front of my wives. "Tch, perverted bastard... I will just fight." "Ahem, yes, standing beside him might corrupt me." "H-husband... I-I will go fight too... you are embarrassing me..." They stepped beside me—left, right, and one half a pace ahead. Unaware that their sway of hips and jiggles of melons were too distracting. "...." I could only look at three of my beauties, thinking how they are different than last night, but again it appears I might have to corrupt them more. "So, shall we begin the journey of Dual Cultivation?"
