How to Divorce a Obsessive Emperor Safely (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 147
“Huh? What’s going on?”
“I can’t see well… Wait—there’s Sir Sigres’s aura!”
“Then…? No, are those guys even human? Why aren’t they screaming?”
It was darkness so profound that an ordinary person couldn’t see anything at all.
Only when an aura flashed nearby could they barely make out what lay ahead.
Including Dekan, it was five against one. The royal guards could only feel a restless sense of helplessness, utterly unaware of what was happening.
Yet no one moved recklessly out of anxiety—they had fully accepted, from fighting monsters before, that their swordsmanship was utterly useless.
In this situation, the best course was to faithfully follow Rian’s instructions.
Even in demon-hunting, the ones who should step forward were the Shadow Knight and the Emperor. The guards’ role would, at most, be mopping up afterward.
Their duty was simply to obey orders, assess the unfolding situation, and guard the magic circle meant to summon reinforcements.
Still, no one considered this trivial. As senior royal guards joining a demon hunt, it was an honor—it meant they were deemed capable of at least preserving their own lives.
Thus, the guards steadfastly held their positions as Rian commanded, holding their breaths and straining to understand what was occurring.
“Ugh… They’ve moved even farther away. I can barely sense their presence now. I wish the aura would flash once more.”
At that moment, someone among the loyal knights had this thought.
“Wait a moment—don’t we have the Phoenix with us?”
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.”
