The Lord's Empire - Chapter 1712 - Second King of Kings

“Isn't this the weak young master of the Valhalla family?”“Hahaha! I heard he only knows how to waste money... Completely useless.”Another voice, dripping with false pity, chimed in.“Both his sister and brother are Tamers, strong ones at that. While him... the eldest... pathetic!!”The final word, spat out like a curse, hung in the air: “Useless!”In this world, where the bond with powerful Beasts dictated one's standing, where strength was synonymous with the ferocity and strength of your companion.Christopher Valhalla was an anomaly. He found solace not in the thrill of battle or the acquisition of monstrous power, but in the simple, fleeting joys of life. He enjoyed partying, clubs, and women.He offered no retort to the cruel rumors that trailed him like a shadow. Because, truth be told, a knot of fear tightened in his stomach at the mere sight of the majestic, often terrifying, creatures that others commanded.But every life, regardless of its perceived worth, eventually finds its end. For Christopher, it came not in the jaws of a wild Beast, nor in a duel he was ill-equipped for, but in the insidious grip of a rare and incurable sickness.Some days later his flame flickered and he died, leaving behind a void filled with the echoes of scorn.Yet, where one life ended, another began. In the silent stillness of Christopher's vacant shell, a new consciousness stirred. A soul, bearing the weight of unmatched power and a reputation that sent shivers down the spines of even the most formidable Tamers, had arrived.This was the Supreme Tamer, a legend whispered in hushed tones across the world, a force of nature who had inexplicably perished at the hands of betrayal.Given this unexpected second chance, the Supreme Tamer, now inhabiting the frail form of Christopher Valhalla, felt a strange sense of acceptance. He looked upon the unfamiliar yet familiar faces of his new family – the concerned worry etched on their features – and a flicker of something akin to kinship sparked within him.A silent vow formed in his mind, hardening into an unbreakable resolve.The rumors that clung to this body like a shroud would be torn away. And the five Master Tamers who had orchestrated his demise in his previous life… They would learn the true meaning of fear.Their betrayal would be answered, not with petty revenge, but with the full, terrifying might of the Supreme Tamer, reborn. The world was about to discover that “useless” could be the most dangerous disguise of all.

Su Jianan was marrying the love of her life. It all seemed picture-perfect, except for a few catches. One, it was a marriage of convenience. Two, she would be divorced after two years.

With her well-being under threat, Su Jianan had only one choice to keep herself safe: marrying, and pretending to be loved by a powerful man capable of protecting her. Conveniently, her soon-to-be husband was Lu Boyan, a man she had been secretly in love with for fourteen years. She went along with the marriage, knowing full well that her love was one-sided.

Or was it?

Business tycoon Lu Boyan had known Su Jianan ever since she was ten. Back then, the death of his father had plunged his world into darkness, and Su Jianan’s presence had brought a new ray of light into his life. Now, it was his turn to protect her. He would marry her to keep her safe. But two years later, he would divorce her: it would no longer be safe for her to remain by his side.

What fate awaited Su Jianan and Lu Boyan? Would their marriage mark the beginning of a happily ever after? Or would it lead to heartbreak and sorrow? Would their marriage outlast the two years? What kind of secret was Lu Boyan keeping?

Follow along with the twists and turns of this slow-burn, action-packed love story!

Between a woman and a man, she wants to eat him, he wants to overwhelm her story!
Introduction:
Su Jinnian, the eldest lady of the Su family, is the legal heir of the ASC Group.
Three years ago, in order to save her sister who was being raped, she “missed” and killed someone, so she had to go abroad to avoid the limelight.
Three years later, the drama repeated itself, but this time the protagonists of the upside-down became her and a strange man.
Facing the beautiful naked man who was eaten up, Su Jinnian fled in a hurry, but unexpectedly three days later——
“Ajin, this is the mayor’s young master, Master Anxi Rongan.”
“Pfft—!”
【Highlight Part 1】
The highest level of cheating is no different from using her husband’s wallet to support her lover——
In the grotesque PUB, Su Jinnian grabbed the lapel of one person and kissed him forcefully, and finally smiled slightly: “Thirty million, I will keep you for three months, how about it?”
The bar lady stopped her in a panic: “He, he’s a guest!”
Su Jinnian raised her eyebrows: “100 million?”
While everyone was breathing in, the man pushed her back on the sofa, and pressed his lips together: “Deal.”
【Highlight part 2】
Hot and unbearable, Su Jinnian tugged at the neckline, and looked at the man across the conference table in disbelief: “You actually drugged me?”
The man opened the folder and pushed it in front of her: “Sign it.”
Looking at the “divorce agreement” in black and white, Su Jinnian’s eyes widened: “Are you crazy?!”
The man stretched out his hand and unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his naked and well-proportioned body. His eye-catching abdominal muscles are extremely attractive: “As long as you divorce him, I’ll let you – fuck.”
【Excellent segment 3】
“boom!”
The office door was slammed open, and the little boy ran in in a panic: “It’s not good, Daddy! Mommy was snatched away by the bad guys on the street!”
The man’s face darkened, he picked up the phone and ordered coldly:
“Immediately implement martial law throughout the city, and focus on inspections of inbound and outbound vehicles and passenger planes! Once suspicious persons are found, report them immediately!”
*
Lu Zongrui: I am your husband, but welfare is not as good as your lover? !
Su Sicheng: It is said that the moon is the first to be close to the water, but sister, I stand closest to you, but I can’t even touch T-T with your hand.
Bai Shuran: Take care of me again, or——I take care of you?
Ximen Lie: I am very expensive, holding hands for a million, hugging for ten million, kissing for a hundred million, going to bed——
Shepherd Liang Yu: I am more expensive. Even if the whole Su family can’t afford to pay for you touching me, why, you still want to play tricks and not be responsible?
An Xirong: Don’t pay attention to the above two! I don’t want money! Come into my arms! (Third Young Master, where’s your integrity???!)
Chie Sakura: I am the deacon, and I belong to the lady only, both physically and mentally. (The translation of this sentence is: come to me, I am so lonely~~~==!)
