Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately. The applause grew even more fervent... (The protagonist, possessed by a devil, travels through 19th-century Britain in a world without magic)

Forever Destined to the Silver Shadow

Forever Destined to the Silver Shadow

When the man in front of her tried to touch her hand, she instinctively took a step back from him—as she didn’t want him to get hurt.  “Please don’t touch me for your sake,” she said to him.  The man smiled a little and replied,” Don’t worry about me, Celestia! Nothing will happen to me.” She was startled as he had called her by her actual name. She had kept her identity a secret—as no one is supposed to know who she really is.  “How do you know my…. real name?” she asked him nervously.  “I know everything about you, Celestia,” he said and moved near her. “I know you better than you know yourself—" Her heart throbbed when his hand got near her skin. She thought that he would be thrown away from her and get severely injured—just like all the other men did. But surprisingly, nothing happened to him when his sturdy hand clasped her pearly white fingers. With his other hand, he held her chin and fixed his alluring gaze on her.  “How... How are you even able to touch me?” Celestia asked him.  “Because you are mine—" he answered in a deep tone. “Others weren’t able to touch you—as you only belong to me—" She winced slightly when he suddenly grabbed her tiny waist and pulled her closer to him. Then he leaned down and kissed her pale cheek.  “Only I get to touch and kiss and make love to you! Because you are forever destined to live with me,” he whispered in her ear and made her shudder.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ He is feared by everyone else in her kingdom. His powers are infinite, and he can do things beyond other’s imagination.  Even though everyone considers him dangerous, Celestia sees a different version of him. He is ruthless and cold to others—but whenever he sees her, he surrenders himself to her. Despite the warnings of others, she finds herself slowly falling for him. Even after she becomes his lover, she is unable to predict his true nature. What are his true motives? And what circumstances are forcing him to join hands with the dark side? And why does he desire Celestia so much that he is willing to kill any man who even thinks of touching her?! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Join my discord server to view pictures of characters and more https://discord.gg/MCNHfvH7m8 Chat with the author directly there and give your feedback.

What was the difference between the Shaolin Temple in Wuxia novels and the real Shaolin Temple?

There were many differences between the Shaolin Temple in Wuxia novels and the real Shaolin Temple. In wuxia novels, Shaolin Temple was a mysterious sect with powerful martial arts and mysterious inheritance. In the real world, Shaolin Temple was a famous Buddhist temple with a powerful martial arts heritage, but it was not as mysterious as in martial arts novels. In wuxia novels, the martial arts of Shaolin Temple were very advanced and often had strong offensive power. In the real world, although Shaolin Temple's martial arts were also very powerful, they paid more attention to the cultivation of defense and internal strength than offensive martial arts. In wuxia novels, the leader of Shaolin Temple was usually an eminent monk with extraordinary wisdom and martial arts. In the real world, the leader of the Shaolin Temple was usually a high-ranking leader with high political wisdom and management skills. Although there are many differences between the Shaolin Temple in martial arts novels and the real Shaolin Temple, they are both important parts of Chinese traditional culture and have a strong history and cultural heritage.
