Lv.99 Princess of Dark Flames (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 197
???th floor inside the tower.
Amidst an endless desert stood a sandcastle, shimmering golden under the sunlight.
With no windows and not even a gate, its peculiar structure—rising abruptly without any ramparts and capped by a sharply pointed roof—resembled more a spire than an actual castle.
At the highest point of the castle, in a dark space untouched by even a sliver of sunlight, sat a massive throne, seemingly carved from solid gold.
Leaning lazily against it, the man rested his chin crookedly on one hand propped upon the armrest. His downturned lips, which had seemed bored, suddenly curved into a faint smile.
“You’ve come.”
The voice of the castle’s master was not loud, yet the entire structure trembled faintly as if resonating with his words.
Unfazed by the vibration, he stared straight ahead. There hovered a spherical shape, as if formed by clumped grains of sand—a round orb resembling an eyeball. Upon closer inspection, its center displayed a clear image of another location, much like a CCTV feed.
Jet-black hair flowing down to her waist, an ornate long black dress, and a black parasol edged with lace.
It was the number one Head Hunter, the Black Flame Princess.
Seeing her face, the man slowly rose from his throne. His heavy golden hair, hanging down to his ears, swayed with a metallic chime.
He strode forward and grasped the sandy eyeball in one hand. With a soft crunch, the spherical orb crumbled in his grip.
“I have many questions…”
Gazing at the grains of sand slipping limply through his fingers, he let out a low chuckle.
“But for now, the game takes precedence.”

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.”
