Daily Life of a Family of Four Time flew by, and the seasons turned. A year might seem long to humans, but to yao, it was only a fleeting instant. After He Qingfu’s reincarnation, Chen Xihe often went to secretly visit her, and Mu Wang would occasionally sneak a peek from the treetops, but Jiang… Continue reading Tricked 177: Weary Crane Among Peach Blossoms

After leaving the Supernatural Administration Bureau, Jiang Yan made it home just within the two-hour mark. Mu Wang was just finishing the last dish, while Chen Xihe was helping out beside him, wiping everything down with a towel—the stove gleamed, and the cutting board was already cleaned up. By the time Mu Wang brought out… Continue reading Tricked 175: Main Story Complete

After returning to Jiangcheng, Jiang Yan first took Chen Xihe home. Mu Wang had just come back not long before and was in the kitchen experimenting with baking cookies. The whole house was filled with the tempting aroma of baked goods. Back then, Taotao had never taken human form, not even up to the moment… Continue reading Tricked 174: Pretty Good

This was a story with a beginning and an end. After finishing her recollections, Jiang Yan smiled, put the diary back in her backpack, packed away the millennia-old bridal gown, then stood up and walked toward the tomb entrance. Her experience hadn’t been long; it didn’t take much time to review it all. So when… Continue reading Tricked 173: Unsealing

After Taotao’s resurrection, Jiang Yan’s life changed a little. At first, the change wasn’t obvious. The tomb chamber remained quiet; Taotao never suddenly spoke up, never rambled on about himself, and certainly never tried to rope Jiang Yan into any strange story gatherings. He was quiet, sometimes floating up and down the main chamber, sometimes… Continue reading Tricked 172: A Millennium in the Tomb

The memories with Jiang Chixi came to an end. More precisely, the memories with He Qingfu and Jiang Chixi came to an end. Jiang Yan let out a soft sigh. She closed the diary, shielding her eyes for a moment, then propped her chin on her left hand and sat on the rubble, lost in… Continue reading Tricked 171: Guarding the Tomb

The story was already approaching its end. Hearing He Qingfu’s words, little Jiang Yan was confused, but He Qingfu gave her no time to react. Just before entering the valley, she pushed her down. The girl’s body tilted, and the moment she fell from the horse, she turned into a red string. Just as He… Continue reading Tricked 170: Today You Can Win

After He Qingfu said this, the two spoke no more. Jiang Chixi left the palace with her bundle and boarded the waiting carriage outside. Everything had been arranged, so the journey was smooth and unimpeded. It would take two days to reach the border. Along the way, little Jiang Yan transformed twice inside the tightly… Continue reading Tricked 169: The Dagger

He Qingfu found it hard to refuse this decision. Because Chen Xihe was absolutely right—even if he was determined, even if he promised not to get involved in mortal karma or let his thoughts stray, avoiding karma was not something he could accomplish on his own. Even with her planning, it would be extremely difficult.… Continue reading Tricked 168: Unfit for the Light
