The Blue Lotus : Hellscroll

Wenlock
Mortals have always clung to neat ideas about the afterlife — of karma, rebirth, and the punishments that follow sin. But what if even death isn’t the end? Zhang Xiyu was once a scholar in the royal court. He died centuries ago and quickly learned that there indeed could be a death after death. Betrayed by his king while alive and discarded by his judge after death. But those are matters of the past. The souls crying under his palm would never imagine that once upon a time, Zhang Xiyu was one of them. Lord Enma has turned away, the underworld is collapsing, and the damned souls spill into the mortal realm and prey upon the humans. Upon entering Hell, its three princes decide to cast him into the Kaigan Pit, the rotting heart of every nightmare, not just for their sick entertainment. But to retrieve the Blue Lotus, the artifact said to grant dominion over Hell. What he finds instead is a goddess. The ancient mother of Hell binds him with an unbelievable promise: kill Enma's sons, take his throne, and restore what corruption has ruined. In a world where every soul hides a blade, and every god has abandoned their post, only one question prevails. Has Hell chosen a new heir? And if it has— is Zhang Xiyu being crowned… or led somewhere else entirely? New Update - Every Saturday!

Plants vs Dungeon

When dungeon gates opened across the world, it became a gold rush. Hunters chased glory. Guilds chased power. Corporations chased profit. Phong Tran awakened as a Level 1 Farmer. No skills. No passives. A broken EXP bar that never moved. So he sold energy drinks instead. Leg warmers. Electrolytes. Power banks. If everyone else was digging for gold, he’d sell the shovels. Then Josh came. University golden boy. Gym-built. Son of a man who could erase problems with a phone call. “Protection fee.” Phong refused. He woke up in a hospital bed, beaten within an inch of death. His aunt and uncle were gone. No bodies. No investigation. No media coverage. Just silence. Then, as if the universe had a sense of humor, his system finally gave him a quest: Plant and harvest 10 potatoes in the dungeon. That’s it. No penalties. No forced missions. No ticking clock. No promise of justice. Just a choice. Phong takes it. The potatoes mutate. Then other plants followed. Chilies spit burning rounds. Sweet potatoes bulk up into blunt-force bruisers. Garlic turns chemical-warfare illegal. Enoki mushrooms rattle like dungeon-grade machine guns. His crops become his frontline. Phong doesn’t want to conquer the dungeon. He wants to build something inside it. A farm. A hearth. A settlement for people tired of being disposable. He won’t let revenge be the only thing he grows. Revenge lit the spark. But it won’t be the only thing he grows. And if the most powerful man in the city comes looking to finish what his son started... He’ll learn something the dungeon already knows. This farm fights back.
