Empire of the Ring - Chapter 110 - The Defectors (2)

Every little girl's fantasy is to live a wonderful life full of riches and luxuries. This was the future she imagined, and she was willing to go to any length to obtain it.She was spoiled, pampered, and doted on by her family, and she was proud of herself. She knew she deserved the best, and she went for it. This, however, is where the nightmare began.Wanting to leave the clutches of poverty wasn't as simple as she believed, given the things she had to give up, the humiliation she had to endure, and the numerous things she had to lose. It was not worthwhile.When she thought she had it all, she was slapped in the face with the cold, hard truth: she was only a SUBSTITUTE.And when two of her closest companions turned on her and betrayed her, she was shoved aside and got humiliated by people she used to know.With nothing and no one to lean on, she was forced to make decisions. Decisions that gradually resulted in something breathtakingly amazing.[DING! SIGN IN! THE HOST HAS BEEN REWARDED WITH ******]

I used to think obsessive male leads were kind of hot. You know—the intense stares, the undying devotion, the way they’d burn the world for the woman they love? Swoon, right?Wrong.That fantasy went up in smoke the moment I woke up in the body of Sonia Mitford—the heroine of The Crimson Devotion, the first obsessive romance fantasy novel I ever read. The one that ended on a mysterious hiatus. The one with Marius Wittelsbach—a charming, possessive psychopath who thinks an ankle shackle is a love language.Now I’m trapped in a velvet-draped prison, shackled to a bedpost like some porcelain doll in a gothic fairytale. And Marius? He’s worse than I remembered. Sweet, soft-spoken... and utterly unhinged.“You don’t need to be afraid. I’ll take care of you.”Translation: I’ll murder anyone who blinks in your direction and serve you tea over their corpse.“Anyone who bothers you... anyone who looks at you the wrong way... I’ll get rid of them for you.”I thought I was playing the role just fine—smiling, nodding, pretending not to be horrified.But then—plot twist! Alessio Slovene, the forgettable side character, walks in looking like a golden retriever knight and drops this bomb: he’s actually the crown prince in disguise. And he’s investigating Marius.Finally—a lifeline. Maybe.Because people are vanishing. The body count is rising. And every time Marius kisses my forehead and calls me “Nia,” I feel one step closer to becoming the tragic heroine in a blood-soaked love story.Obsessive male leads aren’t dreamy.They’re terrifying.And I might be in way over my head.

Master said, the woman I held in my hands, I must protect for the rest of my life.

Master said, it’s hard to cultivate as a Demon, and once you enter the Demon Dao, you should never look back.

Master said, Heaven is a Circle and the Earth is a Square; that Circle represents (is) consummate perfection, and that Square represents (is) the edges and corners of one’s Heart, it’s a rebellion against Fate, a Disobedience to Heaven.

My master is named Ning Fan, he’s not a person, he’s merely a Butterfly who has entered Demonhood. He was searching for someone. No one knew who he was searching for. No one knew how long he would search for…

“Douluo: Sell Ning Rongrong mission card, she quits Shrek”

Li Haiyun traveled to the Douluo Continent and bound the system of selling mission cards to get 1 to 100 times the reward.

As long as someone buys his mission card and completes the mission, he can get one to a hundred times the mission reward!

It’s just that the content on this task card is a bit indecent?

Ning Rongrong, who was trained in the military at the beginning, was reprimanded by Shrek Friend. She ran outside to relax, and happened to meet the mission card shop that Li Haiyun was running.

Driven by curiosity, Ning Rongrong went shopping, received her mission, and upgraded the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda to the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda.

Now it’s all right, the fugitive princess Ning Rongrong found the treasure shop, so she just didn’t go back to Shrek and continued to be humiliated.

Not only that, but she also wants to escape from Shrek with the ladies of Shrek, buy mission cards together, accept missions, and complete missions!

Zhu Zhuqing: “The black-level task is to swear to Dai Mubai’s lifelong enemy with the martial soul, rewarding the twentieth-level cultivation base, accept it!!”

Tang San: “A black-level mission hits teacher Yu Xiaogan’s ass thirty times, and rewards peerless skills!!!”

Bibi Dong: “Purity gold-level mission, give birth to a child for the shopkeeper, and reward all spirit rings with a 100,000-year lifespan!!”

…

The owner, Li Haiyun, was lying on the rocking chair and couldn’t help laughing as he watched the rewards he was constantly getting.

In the missions and rewards again and again.

Some people’s master-student relationship collapsed, and some people’s colleges were disbanded…

There are also people who find love…
