After Leaving the Brothel, I Somehow Became Emperor

The day she was sold, her mother died horribly, her elder sister was forced into prostitution, and her younger sister became a slave.

After her entire family was wiped out, she decided to kill and burn her way through the world.

Later, she realized killing just one person wasn’t enough. This world devoured people, so she would change the world itself.

In the end, the city belonged to her, the nation belonged to her, and the entire realm belonged to her.

Her own father, the man who had sold her, knelt at the foot of the steps, trembling. “I had no choice back then. I’m your father, after all...”

Ji Lengyu lowered her eyes. “In that case, it’s perfect. I have no choice either, so I’ll personally send you on your way.”
