Sovereign of the Ashes - Chapter 2: Black Mage

Childhood, upbringing, family background, social relations, traumatic experiences…

We keep reviewing and seeking out the motives of criminals, exploring the subtlest emotions driving them. It’s not to put ourselves in their shoes and sympathize, or even forgive them; it’s not to find some reasons to exculpate their crimes; it’s not to kneel down before the so-called “complexity of human nature”; nor to introspect social conflicts, much less to alienate ourselves into monsters.

We just want to have a fair trial – for ourselves and for those who still have hope for the world.

“You dare to divorce, unless I die!” Fu Tingyao was cold and cruel, but he loved her to the point of madness, and he would turn black as soon as he left.

Before his rebirth, Mu Xingwan mistakenly regarded his benefactor as an enemy, and only when he died did he realize that he loved him to the bone.

Returning from the rebirth, Mu Xing started a counterattack late, hugged the man’s thigh tightly, slapped the face and abused the scum all the way! It is rumored on the Internet that Mu Xingwan’s heart is higher than the sky, and she stalked the popular actor Shen Yu, and recruited fans to scold “The toad wants to eat swan meat!” As a result, after the photos of Mu Xingwan’s makeup without makeup were exposed, she “slapped” her face! It was rumored on the Internet that the popular actor Shen Yu fell in love with the little fairy at first sight, but found that the little fairy was Mu Xingwan after she had no makeup… The whole network was shocked. Fu Erye, the dream lover of thousands of girls, immediately posted a group photo, and wrote @shen yu: my wife, understand?

It is also said that Mu Xingwan was timid and stupid, and all the ladies and ladies were looking forward to their divorce: the vase was not worthy of standing shoulder to shoulder with the second master.

Then, the news headlines revealed that the top student in the college entrance examination, an expert in appraising treasures… When it was all hers, it blinded everyone’s eyes.
