The Fragile Beauty Can See the Ghost

Cutest Kitty
Su Nanzhi was born with a heart condition and was once told she wouldn't live past 18. But she survived, and with her extraordinary eyes, her heart was trained to remain untroubled. The first time she saw Jiang Beiyu, she heard a song beating "thump thump" in her chest. He was so handsome. Su Nanzhi fit the image of a delicate beauty all too well, and she happened to have been nurtured in a rural village for over a decade. Her uncles, brothers, and sisters in the family looked at her as though she were a performing monkey. That is, until this performing monkey shed all her covert coats... Theater 1: Owing to Su Nanzhi's heart condition, her classmates were always afraid to say anything too stimulating, even speaking to her in soft, gentle tones. Later, at dawn, a few classmates who loved horror films bumped into Su Nanzhi at a midnight showing in a movie theater. Classmate: “…” Is the tolerance for heart disease this high now? Su Nanzhi: Will you listen to my explanation? You might not believe it, but the ghosts in the movies aren't as scary as the ones she saw when she first started out. Theater 2: The handsome and distinguished young man read Su Nanzhi's old journals and found out how she had drooled over her own face for more than just a day or two. He frowned as if he had encountered a problem trickier than Goldbach's Conjecture and finally couldn't help but ask her: “Are you sure you're just into my face?” “My body is pretty good too, do you want to check it out?”

House of the Celestials: The Eclipsed Vault

Half a half-century after the events of the Crown of Stars, Terra stands transformed. On Terra, the shattering of the Grey— the mystical veil that once hid magic from mundane eyes—has fused two realities into one. Cities now share their skylines with floating citadels, arcane ley‑lines hum beneath once‑quiet streets, and ordinary Terrans awaken to powers they never dreamed possible. In the vacuum left by the fallen regimes, the mage‑conclave Octagram and the chivalric order Golden Dawn broker a fragile new world order alongside the rulers of the former Hidden World. Amid the upheaval, Samantha Sinclair—reborn as Asha’Yee, Keeper of the Sacred Flame—guides the newly awakened through their first sparks of power. Together with Emily Legens and her comrades she turns her focus to a deeper enigma: the vanishing of the legendary AurenIdril Empire, whose secrets may hold the key to stabilizing (or toppling) the newborn age. Every clue draws them closer to the mythic Eclipsed Vault, a place whispered to house the empire’s final legacy—and the reason the gods themselves fear Terra’s rise. Far from home, Leonard Haravok—now a full demigod—has returned to the Divine Federation and vanished from public sight. Rumors hint at celestial trials, forbidden bargains, and a destiny that could either save Terra or condemn it. As cosmic forces converge on the planet, Leon and Sam’s intertwined fates edge toward an inevitable collision—one that will test old loyalties, spark new alliances, and decide whether the light of the new era will blaze or be snuffed out before it can truly dawn. In a world where the veil is gone and the gods are watching, the greatest secrets lie in the shadows of the Eclipsed Vault—and unlocking them may cost more than anyone is willing to pay.
