The Devil's Betrothed - Chapter 739: Biting

Not everyone wants to live a life filled with fame, riches, glory, and honor. Some, just want the easy life. To live a life that simply plays itself over and over, with a hint of spice here and there.

The next second, divine lights of five different colors filled the world.
