My Ex Called Off the Engagement, So from the Start I Turned Around and Married a Mad Empress

After three years of swallowing his pride, Chen Xuan has poured his heart and soul into making his wife, Lin Ruoxue, the Great Xia Empire's number-one War God, despite being an ordinary man.

But the moment her first love, a prince, returns to the country, Lin Ruoxue coldly throws down a divorce decree:

“You're just a powerless commoner, while I've reached the summit. We were never meant to belong to the same world.”

Chen Xuan makes no attempt to stop her. He calmly writes, “Fine. We'll never see each other again, in life or death.”

The moment he turns away, a clear chime rings in his mind:

[Ding! Mission to endure and support her completed. Your ex-wife's fortune has been drained. Super Empire Sign-In System activated!]

When he opens his eyes again, a twist of fate has him marry into the enemy nation of Great Zhou, where he becomes the human shield of its deranged Empress, a woman who kills without batting an eye.

The whole world mocks him as a short-lived good-for-nothing who was dumped.

Little do they know, Chen Xuan signs in at the Empress's bedchamber and summons a hundred thousand Snow Dragon Riders from the start!

He signs in at the Imperial Ancestral Temple and unlocks blueprints for red-coated cannons and breech-loading rifles!

He signs in at the imperial garden and pulls out a Gatling gun!

A few years later, Great Xia, deprived of Chen Xuan's secret support, suffers defeat after defeat, and its national strength crumbles.

Lin Ruoxue finally uncovers the truth: the military strategies and elixirs she was so proud of all came from the “good-for-nothing” she kicked out!

Her heart collapses completely. With the enemy at the gates and her country on the verge of ruin, she kneels outside Great Zhou's city gates and begs through her tears of blood: “Chen Xuan, I was wrong. Please come back and save me...”

On the city wall, the bloodthirsty and merciless Empress of Great Zhou nestles against Chen Xuan like a kitten, peeling grapes for him.

Chen Xuan doesn't even lift his eyes. Stroking his pure-gold Desert Eagle, he says coolly, “Honey, that woman down there is making quite a racket.”

The Empress's red lips curve into a smile as she waves imperiously. “How dare she disturb my husband? All troops, listen up: blast her to bits!”
