Nightwatcher - Chapter 12: Sharp Like a Tiger

By coincidence, Li Yunmu found a super machine from humanity’s age of darkness. From that point onwards, his ordinary life would never be the same! Aptitude? Innate talent? What are these? Could they be eaten?

I have neither aptitude nor innate skill, but my shadow can level up using hacks. Experience, Ability points, battle prowess… all of them could be hacked. Even while he is asleep or tired, he could still increase his skills.

Tang Qiu was a substitute bride–forced to take her half-sister’s place and marry the young master of the Jiang family, a deformed cripple with less than 6 months left to live.

“Who would have thought that even a sickly whelp like Jiang Shaocheng would find himself a bride?”

“I hear that he’s practically on his deathbed and he’s only marrying the Fengs’ daughter to improve his lifespan.”

Tang Qiu ignored the whispers around her and focused on her husband-to-be, who coughed violently in his wheelchair. At the altar, after they had said their vows, she lifted her veil and knelt in front of Jiang Shaocheng, pressing a hesitant kiss to his lips.

The marriage contract was signed. No matter his physical deformities, he was now her husband.

She wasn’t afraid of the scars that marked his face, nor was she repulsed by him being confined to a wheelchair. Every morning, she made him breakfast, attended to his needs, and thought of little else beyond her duties as a wife.

“Young Master Jiang is a cripple who can’t get it up,” her best friend argued. “When he dies, you’ll still be untouched. You should set your sights higher.”

“A sickly invalid like Jiang Shaocheng can’t give you happiness,” her ex-boyfriend insisted. “I’ll wait for you.”

But Young Master Jiang only scoffed. “I have plenty of time left to be with her.”

Later in their marriage, Jiang Shaocheng wanted to enjoy his little wife in all ways–the press of her lips against his, the brush of skin on skin; the way a husband and wife were supposed to. But Tang Qiu refused him, blushing. “No, we can’t. The doctor says you can’t exert yourself.”

Jiang Shaocheng’s desire was surging through him, a heat in his core that demanded to be satiated. He cursed, I should have gotten rid of that doctor and the wheelchair long ago.

But he yearned to make love to his little wife, and so he revealed his true identity. In the blink of an eye, the deformed cripple transformed into a powerful businessman–tall, dark, and handsome. He quieted Tang Qiu’s protests, his body positioned over hers, his arms caging her as she lay on the bed. His voice was low when he asked, “What about now?”

Ning Buyi crossed over, and transmigrated into a stallion novel called “The Lover of the Prince of the Empire”.

The good news is that she is bound to the system and inherited a barren star; the bad news is that in the next plot, she will be wiped out by the prince who meets for the first time.

In order to save his life, Ning Buyi ran away overnight, preparing to stay away from the hero and heroine. However, she found that her soul was bound to the land of the barren star, and she couldn’t escape at all! When the barren star is judged to be “dead” by the interstellar judges, she will also be finished with it!

The planet she owns is on the verge of death, has been judged “abandoned” twice, and is now facing its final judgment.

Ning Buyi doesn’t want to die, she can only conscientiously build the planet.
When the boundless desert becomes an oasis,

When the extinct ancient creatures revived in this untouched land,
When the sleeping city construction wakes up here,
…
But bad news came from ahead, her planet is likely to be selected as a battlefield, where humans, Zergs, and alien beasts will fight in melee.
Ning Buyi: “!!!”
There is no way to destroy her planet!
