The Return of the Gender-Swapped Sage

Under the young woman’s meticulous care, Ling Xiaoxiao grew up, taking on all sorts of daily chores—laundry, grocery shopping, cooking—with remarkable skill. Her extraordinary culinary talent, in particular, had completely won over the young woman’s heart. After dinner one evening, the young woman couldn’t help but sigh, “Xiao’er, with your ability to handle both household […]

The fragments of memory leaped forward once more, and Ling Xiaoxiao awoke surrounded by the scent of medicinal herbs. A girl who looked exactly like Xueji beamed with joy upon seeing her wake, her previously gloomy face lighting up with a radiant smile. She cheered and dashed outside, calling, “Master, Master! The little one is […]

As the super soul-searching technique activated, Xue Ji found herself entering Ling Xiaoxiao’s memories. Now, through Ling Xiaoxiao’s perspective, she could glimpse a fragment of that lost history from a thousand years ago. Modern archaeological discoveries had recorded the resurgence of spiritual energy during this era. Yet, there was a clear discontinuity between this and […]

In the darkness, time seemed to stand still. Xue Ji awoke from unconsciousness, unable to tell how much time had passed. Naked, she shivered as a cold breeze brushed against her skin. Gritting her teeth against the soreness wracking her body, she picked up the robe that had been laid beneath her. Memories of what […]

‘What… what is she doing?’ Xue Ji’s thoughts were thrown into chaos by Ling Xiaoxiao’s words. Her clothes had already been torn to shreds earlier, leaving her as helpless as fish on a chopping block. Though Ling Xiaoxiao’s hands never stopped moving, she hadn’t truly crossed that final line. “Master, do you know how I’ve spent […]

Lilith saw a glimmer of hope. If Shayia could land a strike on Ling Xiaoxiao, the sword’s icy aura would suppress the Vermilion Flame, allowing Lilith to return to Xue Ji’s body. “With the two of us working together, we’ll definitely take down Ling Xiaoxiao this time!” To ensure the success of their ambush, Lilith […]

“What’s wrong? Did I hurt you?” Ling Xiaoxiao’s fierce eyes softened slightly as she watched Xue Ji’s tears stream down like a spring. Her tone, once domineering, now carried a hint of concern. Fragmented memories flooded Xue Ji’s mind—each one vivid, each emotion deeply felt. The guilt toward Ling Xiaoxiao, the boundless love for all living […]

After obtaining access to the intelligence database and incidentally resolving Shay’s identity issue, Xueji left the archives with Shay in tow. In front of Xueji’s home, Ling Xiaoxiao stood waiting, dressed in the same crimson ruqun she had worn during their first meeting. Her eyes, dark and bottomless as an abyss, burned with resentment as […]

After helping Scar-Eye with her heart transplant, Xue Ji stayed in the secret realm for a few more days. During that time, she became familiar with the various mystical creatures there, and her relationship with Chaya underwent a subtle change. The wolf tribe revered strength above all—even among the intelligent beasts—and Xue Ji had not […]

Scar-Eye’s consciousness drifted in endless darkness. He felt death approaching—yet he refused to yield. The corruption nesting within him had replaced his heart, leaving him in a dazed stupor for far too long. A chaotic voice whispered in his mind, urging him to submit to the great darkness. But he ignored it. He had to […]
