His Mafia Prince - Chapter 24: Am I a Waste of Time?

“A sane man accepts the world. A madman reshapes it.”In a world where strength decides all things, Jiang Chen was born with the lowest possible cultivation aptitude. No one held any expectations for him.Except himself.“Talent, aptitude, luck. If such things alone defined greatness, then what value does greatness truly hold?” Jiang Chen scoffed at the notion.Others relied on gifts from heaven. He relied on his iron will, a will forged from numerous setbacks and lonely nights, a will sharper than any blade and more enduring than tempered steel.And when he finally manages to get his bloodied hands on a inheritance that reveals a brutal path of body refinement, his ambitions find wings and begin to soar.What Jiang Chen seeks is immortality.For that goal, he will walk through mountains of corpses, weave beautiful lies, and turn sacred lands into burial mounds.He is neither righteous nor demonic. Jiang Chen is only a seeker with his gaze fixed on the horizon. Whether he ascends beyond heaven itself or is scattered like ash in the wind…Only the journey will decide.------Tags:#Selfish Protagonist#No Romance#No System#Pursuit of immortality

After all the effort of climbing from a mere daughter of a concubine to the Crown Prince’s consort, before the veil was even lifted, I had become a “flower vase” actress!

Su Shen: “What? Acting?”

The people in the entertainment industry discovered something strange. The “flower vase” girl with the terrible acting suddenly improved! She was also proficient in all of the four arts (zither, Go, calligraphy, painting)!???

—— ——

Host: Miss Su, there have been rumours that Film Emperor Xie refused to act in this drama because your acting skills are not up to par. Do these rumours reflect your real-life relationship with him? Do you two not get along?

Su Shen: These rumours are all groundless, made up by netizens. He is a very good senior of mine and has given me many suggestions to improve on my acting. We do get along (smile).

Host: Then let’s contact Xie Yan on site.

The phone connected with a “beep”, and a lazy male voice suddenly came through, “When are you coming home, I’m hungry.”

Host: ???!!!

Audience: !!!!!!!!

Su Shen: ╮（╯＿╰）╭

- Description from Novelupdates

In a world shattered by an ancient disaster, humans rule, and beasts are enslaved.Humanity dominates through mana and matrices, refined into rigid systems that determine status, survival, and worth. Beasts exist beneath them, bound by collars and chains, their strength reduced to mere raw Instinct and obedience. Two races. Two paths. One order that was forcefully imposed.Until something began to change.A hundred years ago, a meteor tore through the sky, carrying a dragon’s roar and a destiny that did not belong to this world. What fell from the skies that day wasn’t whole, and what survived was never meant to remain divided.A human child was born in one of the most oppressed corners of the world. But something inside him was wrong.His instincts pushed him to act when others hesitated. Power around him faltered in unfamiliar ways. Neither the human Matrix nor the beast Instinct fully accepted him, as if something essential within him had been displaced rather than lost.As he grew, he was drawn toward Scars, places where the world itself has been wounded, and to the echoes that feel distant, yet intimately his own. Each step forward brought more fragments of understanding, never enough on their own, always pointing elsewhere. Every advance forced a choice: to submit, to break, or to become something the world couldn’t classify.This is a story of survival in a world built on hierarchy. Of power born from failure rather than perfection. And of an identity that was shaped by absence as much as presence.In a world that enslaves beasts and controls humans, something divided has begun to move. And when what was scattered starts to return, this world will no longer be enough.==================================Discord: https://discord.gg/3q2GJdk27D

I died.A former loan shark with nothing but scars and regrets.Then I woke up in the middle of a BL novel—inside the body of a minor villain fated to die for daring to touch a rare, pregnant male omega.So I did what any sane person would do:I ran. Far from the dukes. Far from the plot. Far from trouble.Then the omega literally fell into my arms.Sunshine-sweet, stupidly pretty, very pregnant... and followed by four of the most dangerous alphas in the kingdom.Now I’m protecting him. And his beta best friend? Cold, calm, clearly hates me... and somehow looks hotter every time he glares.One rare omega. One repressed beta. Four furious dukes.This wasn’t in the script—but neither was falling in love. Twice.NB: Love triangle, eventually turns into poly relationship.Alpha- Beta- Omega relationship.SMUT scenes, viewer discretion is advised.
