Changing the Keywords of the Dark Lords (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 72
“His condition has worsened further.”
“…….”
“We’ve been administering various medicines, but given how frail he’s become… it will truly be difficult if things continue like this.”
On the bed lay Haier, asleep and breathing heavily. Grace and Ashud watched him as they listened to the imperial physician.
“Is it very serious?”
“Yes. We’re doing everything we can, but… as I mentioned, the situation isn’t good. It would be wise to prepare for the worst.”
The worst.
Both of them understood exactly what the imperial physician meant. Soon after, the physician left the room. Grace and Ashud, now alone, remained silent.
“…As expected, Ashud, you’ll have a lot on your plate for the time being, even if it’s tough.”
“Yes.”
Though not widely known, Haier had been growing weaker by the day. His physical frailty wasn’t the only issue.
“You… you…”
Haier, having awakened at some point, blinked his eyelids with difficulty and panted for breath. His gaze was fixed on Ashud.
“Why are you still here?”
“…….”
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”

Celine’s murmuring about the heat gave Delina a glimpse into the terror she must
Del is so observant and really smart to notice the reason! I wonder if Celine had anything to do with her rewinding time. Honestly where did Celine even come from?!
Then, slowly, his gaze shifted to Delina’s ear, faintly flushed under the moonli
Calix didn’t realize this was an option 🤣 it’s like he’s learning from Noah. But these 2 or more like cousin vibes in my opinion~
“Come to think of it, where’s Zen?”
I think Zen is my second favorite but I don’t think the author favors him for Del sadly~~
