The Lady’s Sickly Husband - Chapter 164: Questioning in the Face (3)

A century ago, colossal stone swords descended from the skies, stabbing deep at the heart of twenty-eight cities.Like so began the Sword Trials.Worlds against worlds, species against species, set in a separate, unique, battleground realm that resembled the greatest sword-themed, faction versus faction MMORPG to ever exist.Levels, Legendary Equipment, Hidden Quests, Guilds, Territories, Spawns, NPCs, Sword Skills, Loot that could transcend worlds through a special currency…Only those who can awaken their sword marks would be called Bladeborns, warriors of their race.Armed with Soulbound Swords of varying tiers that decided their ranking in the modern hierarchy, they would fight for the continued existence of their worlds.Ending the battle, however, proved far more difficult than expected. A seemingly unbreakable hundred-year stalemate was reached.The apocalyptic ending eventually faded from everyone’s minds, and being a Bladeborn suddenly turned into a profession.Some even treated the Sword Trials as a mere game.Schools began adding swordsmanship classes as a major subject, and those who excelled beyond their peers at the same high school would be called Sword Prince and Princesses.One such celebrity was Daru Finnley, a young man who had an unusual love for the sword.Named the Fallen Sword Prince after a disastrous awakening ceremony, the label of genius changed into garbage overnight.But his “trash” sword held a secret.And so did his soul…Three worlds WILL fall.

Fang Ping finally settled an issue after wasting half an hour of his life. He wasn’t dreaming nor acting —for God’s sake, if acting in a movie could restore his youth, then the film crew deserved a trip to heaven immediately!

Nan Ge has been wanting to replace his Lamborghini recently, but he is short of tens of thousands of yuan. Under her hard work, her brother found her a good job with a sense of mission—Galaxy Stomach Guard Team, referred to as food delivery.

On the first day of work, she was physically and mentally strong all the way, and delivered the takeaway to Shen Yanqing, a boss in the wealthy district.

——

Shen Yanqing, a myth in the business world of Huai City, is a low-key person. Those who have worked with him all say that he is a cold banished fairy with a gentle skin. He seems gentle and polite, but in fact he is very unfeeling.

Once by accident, Shen Yanqing met a little girl he liked very much. He thought it would be difficult to see each other again, until he ordered a takeaway on a snowy day, the door opened, and a familiar figure stood at the door:

“Mr. Shen, good evening, I am the takeaway staff of irelyn restaurant, I wish you a pleasant meal!”

Shen Yanqing thought that Nan Ge was a poor little work-study student, and since then, she has been taking care of her work. Until one day his car broke down and he had to go out temporarily——

Nan Ge heard that he was in a hurry: “I have a car!”

When Shen Yanqing was still hesitating how to reject her little electric donkey that was leaking from all directions, she turned around and saw her take out the car key and press it lightly.

Not far away, the lights of a Lamborghini worth three million flashed:

“Why are you standing there, get in the car!”

“…”

(Introduction in one sentence: I drove a Lamborghini to experience life, and I loved me so much after I was the master of self-raiding ￣▽￣)

Ye Yang, a straight man from Northeast China, transmigrated into a novel about court fights, became a concubine, and was bound to a system, which could put on view the favorability score of the main characters.

On condition that the emperor’s favorability score was too high, he’d fall in love with Ye Yang. However, if his favorability score was too low, he’d be mercilessly killed. In order to protect his life and chastity, Ye Yang forced himself to create his own persona, repeatedly switching between the personality of an unrefined man from Northeast China and the first beauty of the harem.

Yet, things were getting worse and worse. At first, he let the favorability score of the dog emperor drop. Later, the score began increasing rapidly. Watching how the favorability score was about to skyrocket, Ye Yang panicked.

He wore a gold chain and raised a mink, silencing all of the imperial concubines of the harem. Feng Luan’s favorability score had been increased by +1.

He had a snowball fight with the dog emperor and pushed him into a snowdrift. Both of them caught a cold. Feng Luan’s favorability score had been increased by +10.

The mink he raised thought out a plan for Feng Luan to renovate the imperial study room worth of more than 10.000 taels of silver. The imperial study was so horrible that one could hardly bear to look at it.

Feng Luan’s favorability score had been increased by +100.

What’s going on! Are you still a straight man!

……

The longer Ye Yang lived in degradation, the more he felt that the dog emperor was different from what he initially thought.

At his feet the ground was covered in blood and bones, but behind him was the delightful scenery of the prosperous world, and the coming of all nations.

A few years later, he helped Ye Yang up the stairs and gazed into the distance. He saw a myriad of twinkling lights, bustling, bright and beautiful.

And Feng Luan whispered in his ear.

“My dear Imperial Concubine, look.”

“This is our country.”
