I Became The Wife Of The Male Lead Chapter 20

She is Nine. Blade IX of the Nine Abysses. Three hundred years ago Hell erased her name, burned its sigils into her arms, and installed a recitation under her ribs that counts her target's sins until the day she ends him. Her target: Xiao Jin, crown prince of Dalang. Wolf-blooded. Disrespectful. Weighed and found owing. The Moon's blessing makes a wolf prince untouchable to enemy blades. Only his bride can take him: the one who shares his bed and speaks the condemnation in the bridal rite. So Hell sends brides. Two burned before her. Seven was collared and sang for three days. Now Nine walks into the Looking Room wearing a drowned girl's face, meaning to be chosen. He chooses her. Then he laughs at her, a real laugh, the first true thing anyone has given her in three hundred years, and the recitation under her ribs goes silent mid-word. Now she is his chosen bride, one locked door from his bed, with a priest who already knows what she is, a kingdom that believes he murders brides, a Hell that does not forgive failure, and a mission she can no longer remember how to speak. Every chapter ends with something snapping. The only question that matters: which of them breaks first, and into what.

Lin Fan is exactly three feet and four inches tall, which makes him the perfect punching bag for his snobby mother-in-law and the laughingstock of Jiang City’s high society. To the world, he’s just the useless, vertically-challenged live-in son-in-law of the failing Su family, a guy who gets splashed with wine and told to crawl into a hole. But what his icy CEO wife and her arrogant relatives don’t know is that his stunted growth is actually the result of the Primordial Asura Physique, making his bones denser than titanium and his body a condensed engine of violence. In the shadows, Lin Fan is the Supreme Dragon God, the ruthless ruler of the Nine Heavens Pavilion who commands trillions in wealth and an army of terrifying killers. He only plays the weak, clumsy dwarf to honor a dying promise and root out a traitor, but as arrogant young masters and greedy elders keep pushing their luck, they’re about to learn a harsh lesson. You might be able to look down on him physically, but when the Dragon God finally stops holding back, the entire city will be forced to bow.

Superpowers abound. Villains rule the world. A transmigrated dork that has absolutely no idea what’s going on. Strong-armed by the Superhero Enhancement System into the thankless job of endlessly performing good deeds in a world where such actions are often met with violence, Lucas Lynn doesn't have much choice in regards to using his supposed gifts. It’s bad enough having to pretend to be a supervillain, but how exactly does Boss System expect him to save the world with only the help of a homeless teen, a dog that’s smarter than he is, and a yoyo? Oh, just trick some supervillains into becoming superheroes instead? You make it sound so easy!

He cooked their meals, swept their floors, and swallowed daily insults from his cold wife, Chloe, and her vicious mother, Brenda.
