Four Ex-Husbands Take Turns Hunting Me
I bought a bootleg cultivation game, and the junky thing had a bug that made me lose all my cultivation.
Playing a cultivation game without cultivation is like eating instant noodles without the seasoning packet, so I decided to steal other people's seasoning packets, even if it meant going against my conscience, just to clear the game.
So I turned around and became cultivation partners with an immortal. When we broke up, I divided up the Five Spirit Treasures on the grounds that they were marital property. At my engagement ceremony, I stabbed my senior brother and swiped his Heavenly Dao fortune. Finally, I went to the mortal realm, got tangled up in a romance with my childhood friend, the emperor, and stole the Imperial Bloodline.
Before I knew it, I was about to ascend. Totally worth it!
Of course, I didn't just win their hearts. I also earned three arrest warrants that circulated throughout the cultivation world.
But I don't care. I went after another one. One more seasoning packet and I can ascend.
This time, I've set my sights on the Demon Lord's heart.
*
On the day I married the Demon Lord, I said to him, "We really are destined to be together."
The Demon Lord said, "Are we? There's a whole residence in your heart with room for your immortal and senior brother, as well as your childhood friend. Did you add another room for me?"
As you can see, my plan went off the rails.
He placed his hand against my chest, intending to kill me.
I said, "Wait."
The Demon Lord said, "Do you need to pick an auspicious time to die?"
I said, "No, just wait a moment. I'm going to die either way."
The Demon Lord said, "There's no time to wait. If we delay any longer, the people coming to kill you will be lined up all the way to France."
But he was underestimating me. I turned around and unleashed the ultimate move I'd been charging up, right at him. I even sent along a message:
"You idiot. Villains die from talking too much!"
*
After we killed each other, I thought I could restart the game.
Instead, I transmigrated into the game with a broken sword and zero cultivation.
Ha.
I flipped the Heavenly Dao off, and it frantically tapped on a calculator beside my ear: zero, zero, zero.
Arrest warrants are plastered all over the place. I see them the moment I step outside, and there are four different versions. Even a match-three game would call this unbelievable.
Well, look at that. My former husbands from the Southern Village can't get their way, so they all wrote arrest warrants to punish me. Those four scheming ex-husbands couldn't win my heart, so now they're after my person.
Since things have come to this, I'll settle my grudges. I'll escape the warrants and expose this idiot Heavenly Dao while I'm at it.
