Interest Compounds on Revenge (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 82
Terren stood in the imperial palace reception room all night, waiting for dawn.
He had come late at night asking to see the Empress, but his request had been utterly ignored. Yet he couldn’t leave, so he waited stubbornly.
Simply knowing she was here under the same palace roof brought him peace of mind.
Suddenly, he wondered how Grace must have felt, alone in this place.
‘Were you like this too?’
Time itself seemed to deliberately crawl, as if teasing him.
He even dared to hope that perhaps Grace might suddenly appear before him.
What must her heart have felt like, yearning desperately for someone who never came? It must have hurt terribly—so much he couldn’t even begin to imagine.
Terren’s chest tightened until breathing became difficult.
‘Do you even know how hard it was for me to leave you and go to Basel?’
It was the first time in his life he’d felt such sorrow. Though Grace wasn’t his mother, he’d suffered like a child separated from his mother, overwhelmed by anxiety.
The farther he drifted from her, the more acutely he realized that his true sanctuary was Grace herself.
And yet, he’d also felt deeply happy—because someone would be waiting to welcome him warmly when he returned from his mission.
In the past, even after surviving countless brushes with death and returning to the ducal mansion, he’d only felt emptiness. Lying alone in his empty bed was the only way he knew to comfort himself.
‘Without you, I am nothing.’
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.

I don’t understand, if she is trying to save the twins, why is she putting a gun to her head? She needs to be alive for the twins to survive.
This is sounding less like a punishment and more like a privilege.
Sometimes this novel’s inability to reflect anything close to realism frustrates me. Let’s reward arson and attempted murder! (Can’t help but point out the lack of creativity with Mr. Baker’s name.)
