Synopsis

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?"

What to expect (Updated June 2026) : -Male protagonist who is trying to find who he is in the beginning and increasingly becomes level-headed and ruthless to enemies. Divine Emperor of Death is his calamity title the world gave him and not his personality, so don’t expect MC to be utterly black-hearted here. -Growth style from young to old, a epic adventure that takes itself seriously as the chapter and volumes advances -Harem. Slow-burn romance for the first two hundred chapters and it increases in pace once MC takes on second wife. Harem is treated extremely important here with their own personalities and flaws.

MC makes a few mistakes in the beginning and works to rectify. -Logical cultivation system with nearly no mistakes in terms of power leveling battles. -Unique blend of many types of architecture and eastern fantasy, but mostly latter since this is a cultivation novel. -Quick battles, no-nonsense approach to most enemies, and epic battles, tribulations and actions with lasting consequences. -Magical beast, calamities, strange lifeforms and locations. -The main character is not overpowered at the beginning, he'll have to climb his way up.

The first few hundred chapters do have grammar mistakes since I was a beginner at that time. Please bear with me until the grammar and the content gets fleshed out. This is an epic (long form story) instead of a quick wish-fulfillment novel as we follow the story of Davis from the start, so it's bound to be slow but steady. There are epic moments at certain points which my readers have praised repeatedly. Also, the [best harem novel] in the entire Webnovel according to my readers in Discord. ======= Want to see more official art of the story and discuss the story with others? Join the Discord!

What are the common reactions to death of a loved one in fiction?

One common reaction is denial. In many fictional stories, characters initially refuse to believe that their loved one has died. For example, in some mystery novels, a character may be in shock and keep insisting that there has been a mistake when informed of a death. Another reaction is intense grief. This can be shown through characters crying inconsolably or withdrawing from society. In 'The Fault in Our Stars', Hazel experiences deep sorrow when Augustus dies. Anger is also a typical reaction. A character might be angry at the world, at fate, or even at the deceased for leaving them. They may lash out at others around them as a result of this pent - up anger.

In dystopian fiction, the death of a loved one may be just one more tragedy in a harsh world. Characters may not have the luxury of fully mourning as they are constantly fighting for survival. Their reaction could be a quick, almost numb acceptance followed by a stronger resolve to keep living. In coming - of - age stories, the death of a loved one can be a catalyst for a character's growth. They may start to view life differently and become more responsible or empathetic. For example, a young character may lose a parent and have to quickly learn to take care of themselves and their family, which changes their perspective on life and their own capabilities.

The Empress only wants to raise her cubs alone

King Chong had a young princess under him, and the emperor named her Li Chengyi. Li Chengyi had been spoiled since he was a child. When he was six years old, he cried and made a fuss as he resolutely entered the palace to be the princess's study companion. King Chong did not understand, and neither did the emperor. With her status, there was no need for her to be gilded, not to mention that the princess was extremely unfavored. Li Chengyi was the only daughter of the Shangguan family and was the childhood sweetheart of the current Emperor. When the Emperor was still the Crown Prince, she was the Crown Princess. After she ascended the throne, she should have been the Empress, but the Emperor made Liangdi the Empress and only gave her the title of Consort. Two years later, the Shangguan Clan was exterminated and she was banished to the Cold Palace. His Majesty said that she was just a substitute for his empress. She was hanged in the Cold Palace. Perhaps the Dragon God had taken pity on her, but she woke up in an unfamiliar body. Li Chengyi finally decided to let go of the love and hatred of his previous life and take care of his daughter, whom he had never even seen in his previous life.
