Kept as a Pet by a Young Assassin

Shen Huaici, who stayed up late reading novels, died suddenly and transmigrated to a desolate wilderness in another world.

After wandering around the forest for ages, she finally heard a noise. Thinking she was about to be rescued, she happily headed toward its source.

Parting layer after layer of branches and leaves, she saw a young man cut down everyone there in the blink of an eye.

Everyone except her.

Terrified, she stumbled away. When she looked back, the young man had appeared behind her like a ghost.

Blood dripped from the blade in his hand. It flashed coldly. She was next.

She squeezed her eyes shut and shouted, "B-b-b-big brother, please don't kill me!"

At the same time, another voice rang out in her mind.

When she opened her eyes, the young man tilted his head. Confusion spread across his exquisite, pale face. His lips moved, and he uttered two words: "Little sister?"

Shen Huaici: "Y-yes, yes! I'm your little sister!"

To stay alive, Shen Huaici tried her best to cultivate "sibling affection" with this young man, even though she knew he was a minor character in the novel she'd been reading before her sudden death. He served the second male lead and would eventually die after failing to assassinate the male lead.

But the plot hadn't begun yet, and she needed him to escort her north to seek the male and female leads' protection.

She used her purposeful kindness to gradually soften him.

Later, she watched the bloodthirsty killer who never blinked at killing lie across her lap, docile and obedient.

Like a house dog.

But was this "sibling affection" getting a little too intense? Shen Huaici, kissed until she was dizzy, couldn't help wondering.

His master told Tan Nu that he was born to be a blade, meant to serve a worthy ruler and bring peace to this troubled world.

Tan Nu agreed before his master died.

But later he changed. He only wanted to be used by A Ci.

A Ci.

A Ci.

"Why not show me your mercy and love me?" "Love me." "Love only me."

The end of a dynasty is always a time of turmoil. Since Emperor Huan's reign, the Jiang Dynasty's royal house had declined. The emperor was a figurehead, and one regent died only for another to take his place.

The feudal lords fought for decades, leaving corpses everywhere and the people in misery.

Then the Goddess descended. She saved the people from suffering, and life flourished wherever she went.

She ended nearly a century of chaos and sought a wise ruler for the realm.

She had carefully chosen him. He had talent and virtue in abundance, a ruler born by nature.

After ascending the throne, he achieved great things and ushered in an age of peace and prosperity.

Overjoyed, the Goddess smiled at him one day and said, "My mission is complete. It's time for me to leave."

In the next moment, she saw the usually gentle and refined ruler open his eyes wide. His dark pupils were deep and terrifying, and he clutched her tightly. "Stay one more night. I wish to bid the Goddess a proper farewell."

She agreed without a second thought. The next morning, her feathered robes had been hidden away.

Later, the emperor announced to all the realm that the Goddess had returned to her palace in the heavens. The world had lost a goddess, while the palace had gained an empress who would never be seen by anyone.

Before he became a wise ruler, he grew up in the countryside, struggling through war. His life was worth less than grass.

His village was massacred, but he survived by hiding in a lotus pond.

The weather was bitterly cold. The lotuses had long since withered, and everywhere he looked was desolation.

Then a figure came to his side and lifted him from the mud. She didn't care that her clean clothes were stained, and gathered him into her arms.

He struggled to open his eyes and saw the woman's face, calm yet full of pity. He heard someone nearby call her the Goddess.

The Goddess.

The Goddess...

The Goddess saved him and said that he had emerged from the mud untainted, and would become a wise ruler one day.

He agreed, but thought to himself that he was filthier than the mud.

Because he wanted to possess the Goddess for himself.
