In This Life, I'll Assist You (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 122
I could clearly understand what was happening here.
They killed all the men and left only the women and children. They intended to rape the women.
They would take the children away and raise them as slaves.
Would they brand the children with hot coals, marking them as slaves—just as they cast dark magic on me at the age of five and branded my face?
Would they rape the women and then kill them, just as Lahert drove his sword into my mother’s body?
Without my will, sword energy flowed through the blade I held.
I blew off the roof of the house where they’d dragged the women inside.
Beneath the shattered roof, now reduced to flying dust, I saw Suntus soldiers threatening the women.
One stopped mid-swing as he hit a woman to knock her out. I severed his neck.
Another stopped while undressing. I severed his head from his body too.
My sword energy slaughtered every Suntus man beneath the roof like a razor-sharp wind.
Their screams and cries—utterly incomprehensible.
Hundreds of arrows flew toward me.
They were like stray stalks of hay caught in the wind.
I swung my sword and sliced through the flying stalks. The shattered arrows fell to the ground.
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.”
