The Quest for Immortality - Chapter 73: Fourth Level of Qi Refinement

In typical Mary-Sue novel, readers all like the second male lead who only loves the heroine wholeheartedly and is willing to give up everything for the heroine, but the heroine only loves the male lead who once abused her body and heart.

Readers: Why doesn’t the heroine love the second ML, the demon sect leader?!

The demon sect leader: This Devil Venerable also wants to know, why do I like her?

In order to find out why the female lead doesn’t like him, the self-conscious demon sect leader set out to “interview” all the characters in the novel.

———

When a book was dropped into his lap, the demon sect leader discovered the world he lived in was described in it. This book said that after he sacrificed himself for the female lead, the 4th male lead, his silent, loyal subordinate, blackened and attempted to kill her.

The demon sect leader, Wen Renhe: Yin Hanjiang, this Devil Venerable wants to know why you wanted to kill the heroine.

Yin Hanjiang was silent.

Wen Renhe: If you refuse to speak, this Devil Venerable will force you to speak!

Yin Hanjiang: …

Wen Renhe: What are you blushing for?!

In a group pet novel, the sinister and powerful business emperor accidentally became comatose. But no one knew that his consciousness was soberly trapped in his unconscious body.

Ning Yi transmigrated from the bitter world full of zombies to become his cannon fodder wife. Because she had to marry for her sister, her mentality was distorted, and she was about to abuse her disabled husband.

Then, suddenly the bodies of the two of them swapped.

Seeing Ning Yi lying like a dead body instead of him, the man’s voice was full of malice as he asked, “How does it feel?”

–Can’t hear, can’t move, can only wait for others to slaughter.

Ning Yi, “It’s so quiet, the bed is so soft. Let’s sleep for a while….zzZZ”

Gu Cheng, “?”

–
For Ning Yi, who has been living in the apocalyptic world for three years, her biggest wish is to lie down and sleep peacefully.

After learning that she can freely control the interpenetration with the big boss, Ning Yi affectionately said, “I am willing to lie down for you, in exchange for your freedom.”

So when the wealthy mother-in-law tested whether she would be impatient to scrub her husband— Ning Yi said, “Husband, come and take care of your body!”

When the elder of the Gu family challenges that if she can clean up the property, then that will be her’s— Ning Yi said, “Husband, come and exercise!”

Gu Cheng, “…” Very good.

Originally, everyone was waiting for Gu Cheng to wake up and kick out Ning Yi. But in the end, they saw that her life was going smoothly, her mother-in-law was like sisters with her, and she had become a wealthy upstart!

…
At the high-class dinner party, Ning Yi was stopped by young talent to exchange contacts. As soon as she took out her mobile phone, the audience suddenly fell silent.

——The man who has fallen in legend is looking as handsome as before and has calmly appeared on the stage.

Seeing his wife with others, he immediately jumped over the crowd and stopped behind Ning Yi with his tall body, his dark eyes filled with cold possessiveness, “Why didn’t you call your husband?”
