One such story is that of Chang'e and the Moon Rabbit. According to this legend from the Han Dynasty (206 BCE-220 CE), there was once a rabbit who lived on the moon with his wife Chang'e after she consumed an elixir for immortality by mistake. The couple spent their days making herbal medicine for other celestial beings while avoiding mischievous spirits like Hou Yi's arrow.
Another fascinating tale comes from pre-Han era (before 206 BCE) when Yu Huang became known as Jade Emperor due to his benevolent rule over heaven and earth. As part of his reign he established a bureaucracy based on meritocracy rather than birthright or wealth which shaped China's imperial system for thousands years to come.
Yet another example is that of Monkey King Sun Wukong whose adventures are immortalized in Journey to the West written by Wu Cheng'en during Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). This epic novel tells us about how Sun Wukong - also known as Great Sage Equaling Heaven - joined forces with Tang Sanzang monk and two disciples Pigsy Zhu Bajie & Sandy Sha Wujing on an arduous journey across China spreading Buddhism teachings while battling evil demons along their path.
