Cultivation: But Not a Game - Chapter 139 - 68: Defeating Ding Lingyu Again, Merit Well Earned

They call him Ghost.A name whispered in fear across warzones, black markets, and underworld circles.To the world, he's a phantom—a faceless mercenary who leaves no trace but bodies in his wake.To his enemies, he’s a death sentence.To his brothers-in-arms in Graveyard, he’s family.But to himself... he's a haunted man searching for a past stolen in gunfire and smoke.After a flawless mission deep in the Eastern Province, Ghost returns to the hidden forest base he's called home for sixteen years. Yet the victory is short-lived. His foster father, the commander delivers an unexpected order:“That was your last mission.”Now, Ghost—real name Miles Sterling—must step out of the shadows of war and into a world he’s never known. Guided only by a scarred letter, a fading memory, and the voice of a woman he hasn’t seen since the day everything was taken from him.But war forged more than his body and name.Behind the mask, behind the scars, Miles has another secret.One he’s kept hidden even from his brothers in arms.He’s not just a weapon.He’s a ghost with a fortune—a hidden empire he built in silence, across borders and black markets, forged in strategy and blood.A man of many names, and many shadows.Beneath the bullets, tattoos, and silence lies a truth buried in ashes.And Ghost is about to dig it up—one letter, one enemy, one memory at a time.

Everyone in the world had transmigrated to an alternate dimension overnight.Everyone here was a lord. They could choose their background and obtain a small yard and three farmers at the start.Lords needed to explore the maps and occupy territories to obtain resources, develop and expand, and conquer monster nests.They had to defend themselves against monster invasions and attacks from various factions to survive.Zong Shen awakened the strategy system at the start.There would be strategic information on everything he saw.The system helped him to find every hidden treasure.[The crooked tree 50 meters southeast of the territory is not as simple as it seems.][You will get a surprise if you walk 35 steps to the front and start digging.][Stop looking, this treasure chest is a trap. The poison gas within will knock you out for three days.]

Su Yue, a heavyweight in the assassin world, was reborn as a newborn baby girl.She thought she would leisurely live this life by eating, drinking, cultivating medicinal herbs, and playing with venomous insects… leading a carefree existence.However, her master expelled her from the mountain.Her eldest martial brother is the prince of another country, her second martial brother is the leader of the martial arts alliance, her third martial brother is a divine physician, and her fourth martial brother… well, let’s ignore him.The emperor is her father, her brother is the prince, the national commander-in-chief is her maternal grandfather, and she has three uncles. She thought she could comfortably lead an idle life, but who knew…

In her previous life, Wen Ning was imprisoned beside Pei You and became his caged bird, bird in his palm,

Every day is not planning to escape or is on the way to escape,

In the end, he broke off his wings and died in depression.

After living a new life, Wen Ning decided to hide her identity and her temperament.

Acrimonious, short-sighted, stupid and ignorant…

The key is to love him so much.

All in all, he could do as much as he hated her.

Sure enough, Pei You in this life hated her so much that she shunned her.

Seeing her makes me want to wash my eyes.

Wen Ning is physically and mentally at ease, and can finally choose a husband with peace of mind.

On the day when the news of Wen Ning’s engagement spread throughout the city, she ran into Pei You unexpectedly.

Wen Ning decided to stand on the last post and perform the last play, hugging Pei You’s thigh and crying:

“Wow, my lord, my little girl doesn’t want to marry. Oh, my lord, the sky can learn from the sky and the moon and the sun and the moon can show my sincerity, my lord, my lord, if I don’t change my infatuation in this life, I will not marry you!”

In Wen Ning’s script, at this moment, Pei You should be ruthless and leave without giving her a single look.

But he didn’t want him to stand still, and when she was about to stop acting, he bent down slowly, and wiped away the tears in the corners of her eyes with his warm fingertips. From his eyes to his voice, there was a change from the cold charm of the past: “If that’s the case, how about marrying me?”

Wen Ning: “…………………???”
