I Will Live for Your Death (20 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 148
The first victim was the guild master who had been passing slaves on stage. With one hand muffling the man’s mouth and the other holding a dagger, he swiftly finished the job. Blood splattered onto the stage, spreading like a phantom and bringing terror in its wake.
A sharp scream pierced the air, but he paid it no mind. Crimson stains bloomed across the finely dressed crowd’s garments as they repeatedly collapsed to the ground.
From the moment Rivel entered, he had already noted the number and location of the exits. One entrance, one exit.
People naturally crowded toward a single point. Among the terrified spectators, a few even managed to crawl on all fours toward the exit—but death alone awaited them there.
They all repeated the same words, as if they’d agreed beforehand.
“P-please spare my life!”
“Why are you doing this to us?”
Rivel easily brushed off those clinging to his ankles and crushed their hands beneath his feet like discarded cigarette butts.
“You want to know why?”
Only one remained now. The mask covering the spectator’s face had already come loose from its strings and hung in tatters. Rivel lifted his foot to examine the man’s face.
Evil men did not always wear evil faces. This one looked utterly ordinary—just another passerby on the street.
“Please, my, my life… s-spare….”
“You clapped your hands here, laughed, mocked, and spat at that man over there.”
No one intervened. No one condemned the act or stormed out in protest. Silence was complicity; it was affirmation.
“That is the price of your life.”

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
