At the End of Ruin, There You Are (56 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 32
The Lusenford Castle, too shabby to even be called a castle, was again swept by bitter cold today.
Winter had arrived with blizzards, blanketing everything in white and burying the world in silence. Especially the castle—it had grown even quieter due to the unpleasant incident that had recently occurred.
Because the newly married Grand Duchess had nearly died, executions had taken place, and the head chamberlain who had long ruled the castle was banished.
The castle staff, having lost their leader overnight, were now anxiously glancing around, unsure of what would become of them, and for now clung to Viscount Rolf Anderson, the butler.
But even he had no clever solution. Not only was the Grand Duke’s gaze unusually severe, but he had also ordered that everything remain as peaceful as possible until the Grand Duchess fully recovered.
At the tail end of this winter of suffocating silence, the only ones making noise without a care were the crying children.
“Sasha, Sasha, stop crying now. You must stop. Enough.”
Since the children born to castle staff had no one else to care for them, they usually came to the castle with their mothers and played together in the servants’ quarters.
“If you don’t stop, the dragon will come and eat you! Hurry up and be quiet.”
From a young age, the children grew up fearing the dragon who commanded an army of spirits and ghosts—though they never crossed the border—as much as they feared the harsh cold and the terrifying Emperor. Those raising them used this fear effectively.
Pale with fear, the mother grabbed her wailing daughter and ran blindly. Her Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess, niece of the Emperor, was barely recovering; if her quarters became noisy, who knew what might happen again?
His Grace the Grand Duke himself had declared that Her Highness’s residence must always remain peaceful. Since even nobles—excluding the chamberlain—had ended up on the execution block, the terrified mother immediately fled as far as possible from the inner part of the castle, clutching her child.
The child’s wailing—“Waaaaah!”—echoed throughout the castle.
In a vast, silent stone building where not a sound stirred, even the smallest noise resonated loudly. The washerwoman’s face went white as she realized her child’s crying might disturb Her Highness the Grand Duchess’s peace.
“Stop it, I said!”

My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.

The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
