Sang Tong knew that she was not a good person. She killed her mother and sister and stepped on the bones of countless people to ascend to the throne step by step. Remove the skin and bones, and cut into pieces with a thousand cuts. The methods are cruel and all bad things are done. If there is such a thing as karma, it probably won't end well.

Her biological father despises her, her stepmother abuses her, a scumbag man is on the sidelines sucking blood crazily, and there are other scumbags who are looking at her eagerly. Sang Tong took the brick with his backhand and shot the scumbag in the head. "The world has really changed. All kinds of cats and dogs can jump in front of me." Just when Sang Tong was about to eradicate the weeds, a flash of electricity flashed across his body, and he suddenly lost all strength. The electronic voice sounded in my mind: [The scum transformation system serves you sincerely. ] Sang Tong was confused: "???" [Host, please don't doubt it, the scumbag is talking about you]
