Let them beg for mercy.Because in this life, Gu Qingran is no one’s prey.She is the storm.

It was supposed to be her sister's wedding night, but she was schemed by her biological mother, drugged, and sent into her 'soon-to-be brother-in-law's' wedding car.When they first met, the man in the wheelchair was as dignified and cold as rumored. Just because she approached him slightly, he grabbed her neck, nearly choking her to death.'A woman marrying into the Fu family must rely on herself to survive, understand?'She nodded frantically, thinking that carefully pleasing him would allow them to live respectfully and peacefully like guests for a lifetime.Yet in the nights and days of accompanying him, she was thoroughly consumed, step by step falling into the trap he had long set.In this life, there is no escape; in this love, it moves the heart.

Destined for doom, he was nothing more than a minor villain—meant only to be mocked by the protagonist and executed in the end.The plot pushed him forward, forcing his every step toward that inevitable downfall.But then, an anomaly appeared.Everything was moving exactly as the story demanded… until a certain woman took an interest in him.She freed him from the curse of being a disposable villain—so he could rise as the true one......William, the proud heir of Count Delimore, had lived a sheltered life, untouched by failure and defeat.Yet he never let his victories cloud his judgment.

Cultivation and inheritance, Tianjiao contends for glory, and heroes rise.

The human race started strong and went to the end.

No. 5 Broken Star, 732 Island Town, Wang Yu started his cultivation.

A few years later, the human race has bloomed in every corner of the world.

Countless human race arrogance looked up at the only human race god emperor.

“God Emperor Wang Yu, how can I cultivate to follow in your footsteps?”

The god emperor looked back and was slightly surprised. “Cultivation is not just repetition over and over again. It will become natural after you have fully practiced. All of you are more talented and savvy than me. I believe I don’t need to say more about it.”
