(My first novel ever) Don't read if you're impressionable because you will see a lot of bloody, gory and overall disgusting scenes. I was heavily influenced by the game "The Binding of Isaac" and a lot of other novels when I wrote this one, so you might see scenes, characters, places and items that I knowlingly or unknowlingy took from them. Also, english is my second language, so I would appreciate it a lot, if you will correct my mistakes in the comments.

The Era of Nobility was a dark and tumultuous time where mortals formed rigid hierarchies. Power was concentrated in the hands of the noble class. It was an age of war and bloodshed, where the enslavement of people became commonplace and many civilizations collapsed under the strain of war and tyranny. Generation after generation, their greed and corruption continued until a group of explorers returned from the Void-Crypt. The Void-Crypt was not new to the world; there were all kinds of legends about it. But universally, everyone feared it. Nobody knew where this fear came from, as if it was instinctual. Void Gates, scattered across the land, served as mysterious and feared portals to this enigmatic realm. Though these gates had always been present, their origins and the nature of the Void-Crypt remained cloaked in mystery. Many adventurers, driven by curiosity or desperation, had ventured through these gates, yet none returned, heightening the fear surrounding them. Though fewer attempted the journey over time, some still dared, and eventually, a few did return. These explorers came back bearing powerful relics and mysterious abilities, sparking a rush of adventurers eager to seek similar fortunes. Despite the high mortality rate, the allure of power and treasure proved irresistible. Those who survived the journey back brought with them not just relics, but also the arcane knowledge of the Void-Crypt, reigniting civilization's thirst for exploration and conquest. Empowered by their discoveries, these adventurers began to challenge the existing order. Their newfound abilities and relics emboldened them to rebel against the entrenched nobility, marking the prelude to the end of the Era of Nobility. A few decades passed, ushering in the new age of the void-explorers. It was during this time that a lone soul entered the realm, from a foreign world.

After six years bound to Alpha Lucian, I stumbled on a clinic scene that shattered my world: he was ordering herbs to protect Vanessa Monroe’s pregnancy while aborting mine, all to secure her child’s inheritance. Heartbroken, I faked a miscarriage as he played the doting mate, then burned every memory and fled. Lucian later eliminated Vanessa, realizing his mistake, and plastered the world with missing-person posters. In Sylvoth Pack, I posed as married to Ben Foster, a kind fugitive. When Lucian found me, he revealed he’d aborted our baby to save my frail body and was drugged into bedding Vanessa. But I’d already fallen for Ben, who gave up his title for me. I chose a simple life over returning, and Lucian died alone, wearing the only coat I’d made him that I never burned.

Qin Yao opens her eyes and finds herself transmigrated from a post-apocalyptic world into the body of an ancient peasant woman. Her family consists of four stepchildren needing care.

If that wasn't enough, someone even comes to collect debts! Anger rises in Qin Yao's heart, and she kicks the wretched husband out, "Debt collector, feel free to just beat him to death!" The four stepchildren: !!! With the world quieted, Qin Yao rolls up her sleeves to revive the family. Hunting, carrying bags, fighting bandits, she's an expert in all. But facing the fields, with her back to the sky, and her face to the earth, even a top-tier fighter from the post-apocalyptic world waves her hand: Can't take it! Really can't take it! Qin Yao scratches her head: In the ancient times where agricultural taxes are extremely high, how can I avoid farming?

Shocking! The rough husband is the hidden master in the time-travel novel. She is the sacrificial victim for the male lead's pursuit of true love, the pitiful person who transforms grief and indignation into motivation, the obsessive person who constantly wants to slap the male lead's face with money, the lemon essence contrasting the female lead’s gentleness and generosity. Xu Qinghuan: Emma, is this talking about me? Xu Qinghuan transmigrated into a book, into a time-travel novel written by her best friend, where her father died early, her mother remarried, and she was raised in her second uncle's home since childhood. Her cousin and fiancé are entangled? "Break off the engagement, whoever wants the central air conditioner can take it!" Her biological mother manipulates her with work? Isn't it just going to the countryside? The Great Northeast's black land is fertile, where every year you can lie on the heated kang and eat for half the year. Which corporate slave wouldn’t love it? Most importantly, there is a big shot she wants to cling to. Jiang Xingye is someone that even the male lead admires, the future global richest man, the hidden master in the book. After going to the countryside, Xu Qinghuan goes straight to Jiang Xingye. Her original plan was to be a little follower for the big shot and never thought of developing an inappropriate relationship with him. When the man gruffly raises his eyebrows and coaxingly tells her to hold on a little longer, she only wants to ask: What about being wealthy and detached? What about having a strong career ambition and no time for romance? What about being a 007 workaholic who doesn’t even return home?
