MTL - I [Imperial] Am This Type of Man - Chapter 93 Conquer Marshal Star (13)

Cultivating his power by slaying demons and taming countless beasts, the emperor solidified his throne as the world's ruler. But not once in his life had he expected that his disciples would use research on demonology to sap the world tree's power and push the world to destruction.Trying to fix his mistake, he opted to use all of his cultivated power to cure the world tree and block anyone from sapping its power ever again. But in exchange, he was to lose all of his power.But...the worst had happened, his wife... had betrayed him.

Feng Lingxi was the traditional family’s head mistress – a person with a charismatic yet sly personality with the ability to attract people easily to her side, and having the potential to take someone’s soul away. Crossing across boundaries from a decade ago to now, a world that gives woman full respect and acknowledgement….

Don’t be fooled by her, because she was someone who would act obediently in front of a crowd but, stabs them in the back when necessary! Disguising as someone that would gain her trust and belief! That was why the Emperor of Xian started doting on her, allowing her to become absurdly daring to do whatever she liked. This made the Empress speechless to tears.
That would be the cause of the kingdom’s downfall in the near future…

Just slit your throat with this and you'll bleed out painlessly.”She accepted the knife, her fingers clutching its handle tightly. The next moment, he was pressed against the wall and the knife was on the right side of his neck. “How about I try it on you first, my betrothed?”“Feel free to try. But when you fail, this knife will first taste your grandpa's blood, then yours.”Anger rose in her eyes, and the next moment, blood was flowing through the right side of his neck. She cut deep enough to severe an important blood vessel.“You should not have challenged me,” she sneered and stepped back, waiting for him to collapse.He simply smirked and brushed his finger along the deep wound on his neck. “Seems like you failed.”She watched the wound on his neck heal on its own and felt shocked to her bones. “You.. what are you?”“Guess?”
