I became the wife of a man with a lover. Well then, I guess I have to protect his chastity? “You can sleep on the floor then.” “What?” His eyes said he didn’t want to. Well, yeah. The floor was hard. Then it couldn’t be helped. “I’ll just hold your hand and sleep. You trust me, right?” But, how come the bed broke on my first night with my husband? * Aristine, a princess confined out of the Emperor’s sight. When in reality, she was the owner of the [Monarch’s Sight], able to see the future, past, and present. She, who became the sacrifice for a political marriage, was married off to a terrifying barbarian… “The most precious things should naturally be given to my bride.” But her husband, whose monstrosity she prepared for, was way too normal. However, he belonged to someone else. ‘I’ll go make money then.’ She might as well make the goldfields her own. * Can Aristine really achieve her dream of living freely on a pile of money? Or will she end up killing two birds with one stone?

Crying blood and tears, she pledged a poisonous vow. The gods did not fail her. She was sent back to a decade ago. The legitimate daughter of Jiang family returned from hell. Forget it, whatever! Since they already claimed that she was a temptress that wrecked the country, she shall overturn the world into complete chaos starting with her beguiling sister, her malicious stepmother, her cruel lover and her heartless family. Let her end the lives that Yama refused to end. She was a pawn in her past life. In this life, however, the world was her chess board. With an alluring smile and a charming figure that enchanted the entire nation, the red-clothed woman wrecked chaos among the lands. She was a vengeful spirit from hell, determined to make those who wronged her pay in blood. “I want those who owe me a life debt to hold their hearts out in front of me. I want those who looked down on me to only be able to admire me. I want Lord Zhong Zi to shiver when he sees me. I want to step on this splendid river and mountains!” — — — “You are a temptress and I am a thief.” His robe was as dark as the night and his gaze was as cold as the Northern Star. “A perfect match.” Her red dress was akin to fire, but her heart was the coldest ice in the winter. He was stoic in his black robe, yet he was willing to warm her frozen heart. In this life, the elegant man seemed like a snowy bamboo grove with tall, chilly mountains, walking step by step towards her like an unstoppable force. “Ruan Ruan, if you hate the world, then I shall conquer the lands with you.” “What if I love the world?” She asked. “I am the world, so you can only love me,” he answered.

This is a time of great powers: The vast Persia, Sparta that was founded by force, Athens with its trade and business, Thebes the rising star, The ambitious Macedonia, The twin heroes of the Western Mediterranean, The rising Rome and so on. This is an era of brilliant stars: Agesilaus II – the last king of Sparta, Epaminondas – the Rising General of Thebes, Philip II – the founder of Macedonian’s hegemon, Dionysius – the tyrant of Syracuse, Camillus – the Roman dictator and savior… This is an era of contention among a hundred schools of thought: Plato – the great philosopher, Antisthenes – founder of cynicism, Pythagoras – school of number, Democritus – the encyclopedia scholar, Hippocrates – the father of western medicine, Aristophanes – the great dramatist… What will the hero bring to the world when he comes to this age as a humble mercenary through rebirth?

“Shameless Xia Ping, not only did you steal my martial arts manual and medicinal pills, you even took my fiancée! We’re not finished!” “He’s the embarrassment of the Martial Way and a parasite of the human race. A complete scumbag.” “There’s nothing that he won’t do. Not only would he not help an old person cross the road, he would even steal the lollipop of a three year old.” “He causes problems everywhere. All of the geniuses of those big families have been beaten up by him before. Now, he’s no longer tolerated by either humans or gods!” Countless martial arts experts of Yanhuang Star hated Xia Ping down to the very bone. They were just itching to completely crush him into pieces. As for Xia Ping? Facing the hatred of so many people, he just calmly pulled up the interface of the “Grand Hatred System” and looked at all the wonderful things there. He rubbed his chin, “I’ve already saved up so many Hatred Points. What should I exchange for now? Saint-grade medicinal pills? Or perhaps that Primordial Pill? The peerless martial art skill, Tathagata Palm also seems pretty good too. But then there’s that divine weapon, the Cosmic Cauldron. It really is too difficult to choose!”
