Teratai Chinese Restaurant

Di sebuah desa kecil di kaki gunung pada galaksi terendah, lahir seorang bayi yang menggemparkan seluruh sembilan galaksi. Langit mendadak gelap, petir mengguncang jagat, dan seekor naga berkepala empat bermata dua belas muncul, hanya untuk lenyap masuk ke tubuh bayi itu. Fenomena itu membuat para penguasa galaksi tertinggi gemetar ketakutan—karena bayi itu terlahir dengan garis darah ilahi yang tak tertandingi. Bayi itu bernama Qin Shan, putra dari sepasang kultivator hebat yang bersembunyi dari musuh klan mereka. Namun, takdir Qin Shan berbeda dari siapapun. Ia memiliki empat garis darah ilahi—Naga Petir, Matahari, Bulan, dan Bintang—dan empat dantian sejak lahir. Segel darahnya membuatnya tampak biasa di mata orang lain, sampai suatu hari ia menemukan harta peninggalan pendekar kuno. Di situlah ia mendapatkan dua warisan yang akan mengubah hidupnya: Kultivasi Semesta, teknik misterius yang bisa menyedot energi dari segala arah. Kultivasi Fisik Dewa Perang, jalan keras untuk menempa tubuh menjadi wadah yang tak tergoyahkan. Namun kekuatan besar datang dengan harga besar. Untuk melangkah satu tingkat kecil saja, Qin Shan membutuhkan lima kali lebih banyak sumber daya daripada kultivator biasa. Apa yang bagi orang lain cukup untuk satu sekte besar, baginya hanyalah langkah kecil. Qin Shan tak gentar. Dengan Batu Teratai Ilahi yang menyatu dengan tubuhnya—sebuah dunia mini yang bisa ditinggali manusia, ditanami herbal, dan kelak menjadi surga kultivasi—ia mulai menapaki jalan penuh darah dan pengorbanan. Musuh-musuh yang tamak datang satu per satu. Dari perantau hina, sekte kecil, hingga penguasa galaksi. Namun di tiap pertarungan, Qin Shan bukan hanya berjuang untuk bertahan, tapi juga menguat, melampaui batas, dan menorehkan jalannya sendiri. Dari galaksi terendah, ia akan menantang langit, menembus sembilan galaksi, dan melangkah ke dunia surgawi, dunia Dao, hingga dunia Tao. Dengan empat garis darah ilahi, tubuh surgawi, mata ilahi, dan tekad baja—nama Qin Shan akan mengguncang semua dunia.

At the engagement party, the champagne tower is only half-built when Marcus Harrison answers a phone call. He glances at me and says, "I have to go. Lily collapsed at the airport." I say, "If you leave, we're done." He leaves anyway, in front of 200 guests. He carries Lily Bardot in his arms, wearing the coat I gave him, as he drives away in my car. The next day, he sends me an email that reads, "Lily will be moving into my apartment. She needs me, and I hope you can understand. Once Lily gets better, we'll get married. Please trust me." I stare at the screen and suddenly laugh. So what he wants isn't someone who loves him. It's someone who needs him. And I'm too independent, so I don't make the cut. That evening, I scroll through my contacts and find a number I've never given a second glance to. It belongs to someone who's been waiting for me for 23 years. I dial it. "Tomorrow night, 7:00 pm. Meet me at the restaurant by the sea."

Nowhere was safe, not even in the privacy of the bathroom. When one shorted out during her shower, Tammy landed herself in the hospital. Through tears, she told my parents that I was trying to get rid of her and demanded to call the cops. During a dinner out at the hotel restaurant, Tammy lost her footing and fell into the pool, all the while dragging me down. She cried and accused me of pushing her into the water. Apparently, had she not been smart enough to pull me along the ride, I would’ve gotten her killed. While our parents were away taking care of our hospital bills, Tammy snapped me an intimidating look. “I’m warning you. I’m different from the other heiresses in my position. I won’t put up with your antics. You can’t hide who you really are from Mom and Dad! “I’m going to get you kicked out of this house!” I smirked to myself. The silly girl had no idea that the wealth of the family came from me. She was no heiress once I took my riches away with me.
