Synopsis
Three Souls lay in one body, One soul belonging to a man who had reached the peak, the strongest there ever was, the one who had the talent to do so. Yet he suffered because of his talent. His soul shone as bright as a galaxy once, but now is but a sun. His talents made him the envy of all. And He lost it all, tricked and manipulated from the time he was a child. The Second soul belonged to a man soon to be the richest in the world in his own universe. A man who had his face charred, a man who seemingly had every odd placed against him from the very beginning. He went against the family that abused him and triumphed over them. Yet he was left broken inside, He craved a release, and the first soul brought him that release. And he became a psychopath that scared the manifestation of evil itself. And the Third? The child born from their souls was anything but ordinary. Cursed with a fate no one wanted. Cursed with the fact that the Universe wanted him dead. He was born from Chaos And Ice and a fraction of light, yet he manipulated space. His abilities were so powerful they were harmful to his body. His talent is as infinite as the boundless cosmos. His enemies were greater than one could count. His luck is worse than shit. And yet, he continued to fight. Despite whatever was thrown at him, he would brute force through it or outsmart it, befitting the other two above. He continued to fight, not believing in the bullshit that was destiny. ---------------------------------------- Discord: https://discord.gg/Sgxw6QEsgE

Loved By An Older Man

The betrothal gift is two million bucks, not a single cent less. Jiang Yu is already eighteen years old and can get married now. Send the money to my card, and this matter is settled!" Jiang Yu looked at her mother, who was talking non-stop on the negotiation table. She watched as her mother named her price as she sold Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu could not believe it. Eighteen years ago, they brought the wrong baby home from the hospital, and Jiang Yu, the real daughter of a wealthy family, ended up in an orphanage until a year ago. Jiang Ran, the fake daughter of the Jiang family, grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth. With superior resources since she was young, she was more outstanding than Jiang Yu in every aspect and became the pride of the Jiang family. Jiang Yu, who wandered most of her time in the outside world, was nothing but a country bumpkin who made her mother a laughing stock in the socialite circle. However, Jiang Yu had no idea how great her mother's hatred for her was. On the day she turned eighteen, her mother 'sold' her with a named price. Jiang Yu said, "If you want to marry your daughter to someone else, it should be Jiang Ran. I'm your real daughter. You're the one who mistakenly brought Jiang Ran home!" Her mother replied, "Shut up. I wish I hadn't given birth to you. You've brought nothing but shame to me!" Jiang Ran said, "Big Sis, everything Mom does is for your own good. Don't blame Mom." Her mother said, "I'm convinced she's nothing but a debt collector who's come to me to collect her debts! Either you give me two million bucks, or you get married obediently!" Jiang Yu left home in despair. By a freak combination of factors, she found herself accidentally marrying a Mr. CEO. From then on, the thirty-year-old man pampered his eighteen-year-old wife to the heavens. The little girl said, "Mister, someone bullied your wife!" The man, "Which incompetent fool is so blind that he dares to bully you?"

The host of Quick Wear, she's a professional at breaking up love lines

Jiang Wei was the beautiful and valiant executor in the space-time warp, but now she had become cannon fodder in countless planes. [System: Host, this is an ancient plane. You are dressed as a cannon fodder concubine who was hanged by a reborn woman.] In the end, the cannon fodder concubine tore down the love line between the scumbag emperor and the reborn woman and created a rebellion. System: " Host, this is the Xianxia Plane. You're dressed like a cannon fodder senior sister in the good-for-nothing engagement breaking trend." In the end, Jiang Wei used a wooden club to tear apart the scumbag and became a big shot in cultivation. "Huh?" Host, why is there a gigolo by your side? Jiang Wei: " Oh, the salted fish executor of the male band. He's just a random guy." The System asked,"Are you that kind?" Could it be that he was greedy… The system rubbed its head and said angrily,"Host, this is the apocalyptic plane. You're dressed as a female supporting character who was betrayed by your best friend." In the end, Jiang Wei crippled the female protagonist's cold-faced Young Master Jun with a wooden club… System: " Host, are you holding Godfather Qin's soul fragment?" Jiang Wei: " He's too lazy. I couldn't fly him successfully. Seeing how pitiful he is, I'll help him pick up the pieces and see if I can put them back together." The 1.85-meter-tall young man kabedon her with one hand and pressed his slender leg against hers. He raised his eyebrows and said," It's just convenient?" Jiang Wei raised his head and happened to meet a pair of cold and lonely eyes. His heart suddenly beat wildly.
