Age of Adepts - Chapter 1506: The Primordial Kindling

I think my husband wants to kill me.

Whether it’s forgetting to turn off the gas or finding the bathroom door locked after I just finished bathing, it all makes me feel that he wants to kill me.

I know that I shouldn’t be considering this because we are a gay couple and we have been together for seven years.

Our relationship is also stable, and he is very good to me.

But I really think he wants to kill me.

When Jiang Feng’s family mansion was forced to get demolished by the government for development, he was compensated with ten million. The moment he received the money, a system appeared.

[Ding! Congratulations on activating the Divine-grade Choice System]

Choice 1: Show off your ten million. Allow your relatives to mooch off you and send expensive wedding gifts to your girlfriend. Reward: Title – Good Person.

Choice 2: Invest everything in Bitcoin for huge profits in the future. Reward: One hundred million. (One-time deal)

Jiang Feng didn’t even hesitate to choose the second choice. He invested everything in Bitcoin and made a hundred million.

However, he posted a different story online.

“I lost everything in cryptocurrency. I’ll have to start all over again.”

The moment the post went online, all sorts of demons and devils appeared.

From that day onwards, Jiang Feng finally saw the true nature of humans.
