Eh! Where is this? It’s dark in here! Is this

what they call afterlife?  I am pretty

sure I got stabbed in the back by my best friend ZHOU DAIYU! Even after all I

did for her! She teamed up with my so called boyfriend and stepmother with the

intention to take away all my father's inheritance since he left most of it to

me.         I swear I'll take my revenge on them in this

life or in the next! Now I realize I was naïve, which means I need to revise

everything that I believed so I need to investigate the death of my parents and

brother, at first I thought they were just unlucky in life and didn’t get to

live long but after what happened I can’t help but think that someone was

behind it, it’s logical: my mother was in the way of my step to the position of

the wife because she just came with dad one day, they probably had some kind of

affair and if mother was alive I am sure father wouldn’t have married her so

she wouldn’t inherit a cent, my brother was the successor of father meaning he

would have had the largest share if not to say everything, so they had to

dispose of him, lastly my father, I think they got tired of waiting, or he

found out something he “shouldn’t have”, but unexpectedly for them he gave most

of his properties to me, probably because he felt something wrong with them, I

was the idiot who didn’t think much of it

"Do you want power??" a strange voice

whispered in my head, I didn’t respond so it talked again “I can grant you the

power to take revenge on those who hurt you!"

I hesitated for a second but just remembering

what happened made reply "I want it! I swear I’ll pay them back a hundred

fold”. The voice burst out laughing and said “you are amusing! You'll trust me

just like that?"  "It’s not

about trust! If you can give me the power to get my revenge, even if I have to

sell my soul I would do it!",   "Interesting! Things are finally getting fun! Enjoy your

gift!"  I heard the voice say while

fading away, "Wait! ...." I suddenly feel tired I can't stay awake

any longer.

What was that? Was it a dream?  I woke up in a forest “where am I?” I cried, suddenly

a screen appeared out of nowhere it had the loading sign and was written on it

"SYSTEM is being processed please be patient..."  After a while I heard a voice say "You

are in."  It responded to my

question even I was surprised by it but for someone like me who died once and

got revived I managed to hold it in

I am in this forest in FANGZHU I need to find

some kind of shelter tonight and since I have no money staying in a hotel is

out of the question, and even if I had it’s not wise to show myself right now,

I am weak, helpless, and on top of that dead.

 While I

was wondering about what to do, I noticed the screen changing it said '

Congratulations! You will now receive a welcoming package with a bonus! "

then a choice popped up on a similar screen there were three choices " THE

GOLDEN ACUPUNCTURE NEEDLES”, “STAR DRAGON MERIDIANS” and "BLAZING HOT

PALM" I thought about for a bit and the most suitable choice for my

current state is the second because it’s a cultivation technique and a high

grade, even though the first choice is very attractive but it’s not the right

time if I have the chance I would like to get it in the future.

When I chose the second skill the book disappeared

and it started entering my head, the process was extremely painful to the point

I started crying. When it ended it was as if I got out of hell, it was the best

feeling ever and I am glad I didn’t lose consciousness.

The system

notification alarmed me about a bonus I got with the welcoming package so I

wanted to see it. I pressed it and suddenly felt dizzy I couldn’t remember what

happened at that point, I probably passed out right away.

I woke up in the morning I felt like I’m not the same.  I looked in a mirror to be totally shocked!

My face became so beautiful that it would be comparable to that of an actress,

my chest and hips became so big that my clothes were almost ripened my hair

turned blonde and Even I a girl had abs! Wait what's that book it says “POISON

RESISTANCE (minor)” of course I learned it but I don’t know the limitation of

it I mean is it by types if so how many or is it by the dose? I really don’t

know “ I wish I had full resistance” after saying that I heard the system voice

“ the system is processing your request please hold on…” then it gave me a

bunch of choices, it seems like this system thing has a store, anyway there was

“RESISTANCE TO ALL SUBSTANCES”, “RESISTANCE TO ALL ABNORMALITIES”, “RESISTANCE

TO ALL POISONS” and some others, but to purchase it I need some kind of points

which I don’t have, I asked the system about my personal information it

displayed this:

NAME: YA XIFENG

OCCUPATION: POOR AVENGER

CULTIVATING POINTS (CP): 0/100        (CP can be gained by meditating or killing

enemies with higher cultivation every time your points reach the maximum number

you can advance to a higher realm)

ESSENCE POINTS (EP): 10                 (EP can be gained by gathering the souls and

bodies of the enemies you killed the stronger the enemy the points you’ll get,

you can purchase skills and treasures with EP)

For now I need to reach a higher stage fast so

it’s best to resort to the second method which not only can make me stronger

but I also can get points to purchase skills and the dead bodies won’t be a

problem but I am too weak as I am right now so I’ll have to start with to get

stronger first then I’ll eventually get my revenge. I started cultivating, it

felt like some sort of a mixture between hot and cold energy started entering

my body at first it was a bit hard to get used to it but as time passed it

actually became very refreshing and at some point I felt that the energies

started rushing toward my heart which started aching like it was pierced with

thousands of needles eventually I heard the system notification “CONGRATULATIONS,

YOU ARE IN BODY TEMPERING REALM FIRST STAGE you opened you HEART MERIDIAN”

after hearing that I searched in the store for a book about some kind of

generalities about cultivation, luckily I found one it cost me 2EP after using

it I learned that there are 10 realms each one has ten stages and some sort of

specialties for example now I am in the body tempering first stage, and somehow

it said something about being lucky and drawing some kind of trump card then

the system gave me a reward which is a cultivation technique called “NINE VOIDS

FOUNDATION” but I already have one so I decided to just hold on it for the time

being

This realm has a special trait it’s the only one

where you can open your meridians, of course the more you open the best the

results meaning that not only you become more powerful but also the proficiency

of your training rises so I need at all costs to open all 12 MERIDIANS

After getting this general knowledge I decide

that I need to kill small fries for the time being, that way I can ensure

having a passable amount of EP without some kind of crazy rising in cultivation

because that’ a double edged sword it’s true that I’ll become more powerful faster

but it could mean not having enough time to unlock all the meridians

Right now I need two things first is some kind of

combat art that’s why I got “ANCIENT MARTIAL ARTS STYLE” which cost me 5 EP and

the last 3 EP I asked the system if it could process them to real money, and so

I gained 10K YUAN which should be sufficient for the time being but I need a

way to get money because I have to save up my EP, well I’ll think about it

later

On my way back I saw a bunch of delinquents

ganging up on a girl they were shameless but I didn’t particularly like to play

the hero even so I can’t ignore this situation either, the poor victim was a

very beautiful girl she had long white hair, her red eyes were charming and she

had a perfect body. No wonder those idiots are staring at her like a beast in

heat, I am sure if I don’t interfere they’re going to rape her to the last man.

Now I feel perplexed should I go in to save the girl or should I stay out of

trouble? While I am still thinking about what to do I saw a system message

NEW

QUEST:  Be the HERO

You must

kill all the men assaulting the girl

The girl

must stay unharmed

REWARDS:

20 EP

100 CP

 “LIGHTNING STRIKE”

PROGRESS

Kills 0/8

But seriously KILL them it’s not like I am

hesitant to do it but can the victim handle it? Well not that it matters much

since this system asked me to do it I will there is nothing to lose either way,

so I tried to sneak an attack because I need to kill at least one with the

first strike so I rushed toward them I hit the one who was holding the girl in

the heart he died instantly even I was surprised by my speed and power, While

the others in a dazzle trying to understand what happened I took the

opportunity to snatch the knife near the dead body, they tried to defend but I

was too fast for them even my accuracy was raised by a lot it was one shot

kill: all the strikes were in vital points. It became a blood rain, the girl

passed out from the scenery which was helpful to me because I needed to convert

their bodies to EP which served also as a way to dispose of their bodies. All

of them together got me 16 EP but I never expected that even the blood scattered

disappeared. There is also the rewards from the quest but I decided not to

learn the skill right way because of the drawbacks. After a while the girl

started to come to, I stayed beside her until she was fully conscious then I

told her that she will be okay and that I’ll protect her, she hugged me so

tightly that her chest was pressing against mine, it was incredible. She stayed

like that for a bit. After she calmed down a bit, I asked her how she ended up

here then she suddenly started crying, I held her and said that she doesn’t

need to tell me if she doesn’t want to talk about it but she shook her head in

my chest and started storying “ I am SUN JIAO my family were a bit wealthy but

then everything changed when my father tricked mom and took all of our money

and ran away we were even kicked out of the house because of the debt dad left

to us we even lived a few days on the street until mom got a job and we managed

to scrap by but then mother to remarry a coworker who was divorced with a

daughter 2 years older than me, at first I really liked her I thought she was

the perfect example as an older sister, and I believed she appreciated me too.

Six months ago everything changed when mother’s health got very bad and she

needed to be operated, but we couldn’t afford the hospital fees, unexpectedly my

boyfriend, who I thought he was normal, declared that he is very rich and even

willing to pay for all the hospital expenses. I was happy even though he delays

the payment every time I thought it’s okay since it’s not obligatory for him to

do so, also my stepfather behavior changed little by little at first he visited

her everyday but it became less and less to the point that he didn’t care

anymore, my sister acted like the honest angel who wish to help and I really

believed her. But yesterday, by chance I was invited by a friend to a club, I

agreed to accompany her to get a change, Sorry, I am not trying to brag about

myself but during that night countless people tried to flirt with me no matter

what gender they were but I refused everyone because I have a “boyfriend” and I

am a trustworthy “girlfriend”. That day, I drank so much that I needed to use

the toilet which I didn’t know exactly its **place**\, while I was searching for

it I heard some familiar voices coming out of VIP half closed door, so I

decided then to sneak a peek and overhear the conversation. To my surprise I

saw my boyfriend kissing my step sister, they were flirting and talking about

how I am so easy to fool and how clingy both of my mom and I were. She said

that mother remarried just because she was after the benefits plus her dad’s

wealth, CHEN HUI also confirmed that he was never planning to pay the hospital,

but what’s even worse is that the one who caused my mother to that state was my

sister YING MOON, and she drugged her food everyday leading her to this. I was

foolish to think about ways to stop their schemes by myself because of that they

must have suspected that I knew their plans so they sent that bunch of scumbags

to dispose of me and make it look like the usual kidnapping accidents where the

victim gets raped but then you saved me thank you and I am sorry for not

trusting you from the beginning. May I ask you: aren’t you going to get into

trouble because you killed them even if they deserved it?”  I remained silent the whole time those words

hit my weakness I started to remember the painful memories of the betrayal which

led me to become full of rage and compassion, I asked the system if I can give

someone the power to cultivate and if there some kind of contract to ensure

that the other party doesn’t leak any information, it cost me 30 EP to buy a

skill “SHARE KNOWLEDGE TRAINING” and 6 EP for a “BLOOD MAGIC CONTRACT” The

contact is only valid once meaning: it disappears after one use and can only be

used between two people, of course there was a skill to make contracts

endlessly but it was 1000 EP which I couldn’t afford.

After I calmed down a bit I asked SUN and said “My

name is YA XIFENG and I can grant you the power to take revenge and cure your

mother but there are conditions you must follow: first you shouldn’t tell

anyone about it and second you must do everything I tell you. Do you accept?”

she seemed puzzled for a moment then she replied “I do, if you can help get

back at them and save mom, my life will be at your disposal if you want me to

live I’ll live and if you asked for my death I’ll gladly die” I didn’t think

that she would be this decisive it must have hurt her too much.

I take out the contract and enter the specified

conditions after that we needed to drip blood on it then drink some of each

other’s blood, I bit myself hard enough for my mouth to bleed so did she, we

successfully gotten the blood on it. After that we needed to drink each other

blood, and since we injured our mouths it would have been a pain to just get

another one so the only way left is for us to kiss so that’s what we did and the

oath was finished.

We searched for a shadow, we sat near a gigantic

tree, I was amazed just one tree made us humans look like ants so what are we

really in the whole universe? After resting for a bit because of the toll from

the oath, I told JIAO what happened to me how my best friend colluded with my

mother and boyfriend to seize my father’s inheritance and how I got stabbed by

the one who at best would’ve been nothing without me, I also told her about the

strange voice which gave this power and then how I met her, well I kept silent

about the quest because it might hurt her feelings. She didn’t say a word but I

could see the sadness and gloominess on her face I am sure she wanted to

comfort me but didn’t know what to say I hugged her and told her that we would

definitely get our revenge and get stronger than anyone. I took out both the “SHARE

KNOWLEDGE TRAINING” skill and the “LIGHTNING STRIKE” and decided to learn them

both at once, and as expected the recoil is very hard: I passed out but this

not for long because SUN waked me up, but the training skill is amazing I can

teach the other party from a skill book or directly from my mind which could

help me save up my EP.

I decided to let her have “NINE VOIDS FOUNDATION”

but the training skill requires skin contact to work so I held her hands for

her to master it and thankfully this time no one passed out since both of us

shared the pain, also I got a bit used to it but we were so hungry we couldn’t

do anything, so we agreed to go back to FANGZHU to eat something first then

start cultivating.

I asked her if she preferred homemade dishes or

we can just grab something at a restaurant, she seems fond of cooking that’s

why she chose the first option, and we went shopping for ingredients then

headed to a house I bought under my name before everything began. While we were

walking, I realized that people were staring at us with disgusting lecherous

faces, some of them even tried to flirt with us in midday, that was really an

annoying problem which of course was solved after a few punches. After we

arrived to the neighborhood I saw a bunch of men whispering about something, they

were probably gangsters, even so I tried to ask them nicely to tell me what

they were talking about but they turned out to be also perverts, shameless enough

to touch my chest right of the bat, I was really angry, I don’t know how I held

in the urge to kill and I let them off with only some broken ribs, they became really

cooperative and told me that they were hired by NING QIU, which turned out to

be my stepmother, to break into my house and seize it. I concluded from what

they said that it’s not a wise move to act right now because if I enter the

house I would rise unwanted suspicion, I told those guys to scram but their

leader insisted to become my follower, it was annoying so I decided to ignore

him for now. I dragged SUN with me to an isolated lawyer and registered the house

in her name then I paid him extra to change the date of the contract. After finishing

the procedures I had to dispose of that poor man, he did nothing wrong but I

can’t let him live either, after all since he easily accepted our bribery, he

would also spill out everything if they present him a bit of money, I recovered

my 10k and an additional 20K and converted his corpse to 20 EP. I told her to act

like she just returned from overseas with her friend and will be living here with

her because the previous owner gave to her as present a month ago, for that we

made a detour and went to buy some new clothes for it to be more realistic, I

told her also to act as arrogant as possible for people to believe her. She

made it easily, after all her beauty is not to be trifled with. We went in,

changed to regular clothes, and I was just about to cook but she stopped me and

insisted to be the one to do it, She wouldn’t let me help no matter what, I

thought about the fact that we needed a way for long distance communication

without the danger of being heard, then I remembered that the system may know

something about it, there were a bunch of advanced skills but they were too

expensive I can’t afford even the cheapest one. With that said I started aiming

for “TELEPATHY” which costs 100 EP and seemed far more useful than the one

costing 75 EP and not as expensive as the others. But How can I gather EP,

that’s a serious problem, I don’t want to kill innocent people just like that.

I remembered that some rich people will resort to the underworld to solve their

power struggle they were willing to pay money to kill contestants or protect

them from someone after their lives, they usually pay handsomely, and on the

top of that I can secure a constant amount of EP from the corpses. After the

food was ready, we ate until were full I swear it was too delicious with her

talent in cooking alone could make her a top star chef, I wondered how could a

person with multiple talents stay unknown for so long, maybe she was

traumatized with all the incidents that happened to her in this life, she

really suffered a lot, I need to work on rising her moral, while I was thinking

about this a fantastic idea occurred to me after I gather some money I’ll make

a restaurant and assign her as a top chef maybe people’s reaction to her food

can help her regain confidence. But right now what we need most is strength, so

we went to the basement underground and started cultivating. By the time we

finished it was already 7:00 pm meaning we meditated for at least 5 hours, I

realized that the cultivation differs from a person to another since SUN

managed to get to BODY REFINING first Stage but opened her eyes meridian

instead. After I congratulated her, we decided to go out to have fun and use

this opportunity to forget about all those bad memories. When we opened the

door I saw the leader of those thugs sitting next to a tree in front of the

house, once he made eye contact he came to me pleading to become my minion, I tried

to reject him but he wouldn’t take a no as a response, I must admit that his

stubbornness is amazing, In the end I assigned him to gather some useful

information about those who hired him. She wanted to face her boyfriend and

sister, so she asked me to go with her to the club where she found out about

the whole thing, talking about boyfriends I remembered that I need to go to

class tomorrow and my college does not accept absence, but it would be

dangerous to reveal myself right now, not because I am scared of them but they

must think I died, in fact I did, but then again what happened to my body? How

did I get to the forest? Maybe they dumped it there to twist the facts, well it

would be crazy to show up like this especially with the changes in my body I

don’t even know if I would fit in my clothes. I asked JIAO about advice and she

suggested that I use a fake ID and pretend to be a transfer student. It

certainly a great idea, in fact it’s the best but the problem is how to pull it

off, then she added “Maybe if you can control people you can do it!” the moment

she said it I lost myself and jumped on her and told her she was a genius, she

hid her face with her hands out of embarrassment and turned away, she was so

cute but I told her that she is extremely talented however if she wants to

stand up to those who hurt her, she must to strengthen her character and stop

belittling herself we returned inside and I searched for some kind of skill to

use on people there was “THE HYPNOTISM” which costs 20 EP, I sometimes think

that this system is toying with me All the prices are either I can’t afford or

the exact amount I have. I hesitated to learn the skill right away since we

still need to go out but it might come in handy in the confrontation with those

bastards so I used it and to my surprise I didn’t feel much pain. This one is

amazing I can totally control unlimited number of people in the same time, as

long as they make eye contact with me, for 15 min, but it can’t be reused on the

same person for 24h, but while they are under my control I can even alter their

memories to whatever I want, also there is a strict restriction that the other

party must be weaker than myself. It took me a while to finish discovering this

ability, in that time SUN JIAO was sitting on the couch waiting for me, I could

feel she was stiff and restless, I went to her and tried to encourage her but

she was still scared and asked what would the confrontation with her boyfriend

and sister result in?

8:00 pm, TWIN CRYSTAL SUNS CLUB

We were sitting having a nice chat, we didn't order any alcohol, because we needed to be sober for what is coming. Suddenly, SUN's face turned pale, with a simple glance I knew that she found them, I took her hand and told her to calm down first, if she wanted to face them she needs to be strong willed and fearless, I also reminded her that she is no longer the weak, easily bullied girl, she is now more powerful than most humans, so she doesn't have to panic! We will transcend the heavens together, that's why there is no need to be so make a fuss about those people, because in the end a mountain of ants are still ants!

I wasn't sure at first but it seems when SUN spotted them, she was looking up. So I asked her about it, she told me that after opening the eyes meridian her eyesight became better and sharper, not only she can see a few hundreds feet ahead, but also through things however she can't control these abilities well, most of the time they activate by themselves, only with a lot of concentration can she use them at will which drains her energy heavily. And what's more amazing! She discovered her power and analyzed it while she was waiting for me to learn "HYPNOTISM", which proves that she is a genius among geniuses.

"So does that mean that your sister and boyfriend are in a room above?" I said

"Yes, my ability just activated, I was able to see them. They are kissing and laughing about something which I don't know what it is because I can't hear what they are saying" She replied

"Sorry you had to see them this way! But in the near future, you must get your ability under control, not just to be able to activate it willingly but also to deactivate it. You need to get rid of the random timing because it could put at a disadvantage, or cause you discomfort" I told her.

Anyway, we'll deal with it later, but for now we need to focus on our situation, we should come up with a plan to get a bit of revenge but also avoid direct confrontation until we make sure that JIAO's mother is safe, What I mean is not to reveal any of our cards, meeting them isn't a problem, it's just we must act as if everything went according to their plans, in fact this might help us trap them because they will definitely carry on with their stupid ideas which could create a chance to strike them down.

On the other hand I need to start preparations to hide my identity, I must go undercover I am considered dead after all, but I don't know what happened after I got stabbed and how come when I woke up I was in a forest? I might as well add this on the investigation list of that CHEN LIANG, the leader of the gang, by the way I wonder what is he doing right now? I asked SUN to get used to calling me MIST QI from now on because even a single mistake can blow our cover.

"Maybe we can make use of Hypnotism to deal with them!" I asked JIAO, she agreed right away, I even saw her holding her laugh, I couldn't resist so we started laughing out of nowhere, I bet others at that moment were thinking that we were some kind of freaks. Back to business, I wonder about the best way to do it. With the large variety of ideas and ways, we seemed lost, we couldn't stay serious for more than two minutes straight without straying away to some crazy things. In the end I postponed figuring out the manner to do it, and I decided to test Hypnotism's effectiveness first, so I waved to a waitress to come to make her a scapegoat, well the choice was not random I've specially chosen a one who was pretty rude to us and made fun of a man and dumped him in a cruel way in front of everybody just because he doesn't have much money, if you don't want to date him don't but don't humiliate him that way!

She approached us with an arrogant attitude, I couldn't bare it even for a second so I activated HYPNOTISM right away, she immediately stopped moving, seriously this is much better if I had let her say something I would have hit probably kicked her, she was just standing waiting for commands, that's when it hit me: I thought of a perfect idea! if I can give her orders without talking we can have revenge indirectly, so I started experimenting but no matter what it was futile, until the last try I figured it out: I just need to make skin contact, I sure am lucky, SUN told me they are ordering something so I got the perfect plan.

The order was like this "First switch the drinks of the people in the room upstairs with pee, after they'll call out to you to make a complaint, take two burning coffees and accidently drop it on those two's faces, that moment the spell will immediately wear off and when it does you'll only remember what your deed, also you've never met us"

While she was executing the commands I whispered to JIAO the whole plan she started laughing and it is very obvious that she feels refreshed, but I told her if they see us act like you worried about them and you've never found out about their schemes, but at the moment start monitoring them with your ability.

Well now the fun begins, it's a pity I can't see their expressions at that moment, the three of them deserve it, looking at the smile of SUN means that everything is going well.

Suddenly a huge crash was heard, it came out from above, everyone started rushing to see what happened, we took the chance to sneak in and watch, what we saw was crazy SHEN HUI's and YING MOON's faces were wasted: burn marks were all over their faces, and blinded from one eye. It was so hilarious to watch them because they even forgot to put their pants up, their screams of pain reached outside, they ordered people around to call an ambulance but no one listened to them, they were busy making fun of them in the end they wanted to vent up their anger on the servant girl they made her drink that pee, she nearly fainted of disgust especially because she knows what that is. Everyone were standing still enjoying the show. But those two psychos they shattered the bottle it looked like they were threatening to ruin the waitress's face, but actually they were just waiting for a chance and a reason to torture her and maybe even kill her. What's more vicious, they even stabbed some people who tried to intervene.

SUN intervened she started crying and started "SHEN, Sis what's the meaning of this what are you both doing here, why are you both in this room with your pants down, isn't the second floor in this club similar to a love hotel? On the top of that why are you swinging that dangerous looking thing, are you trying to kill someone? Sob..sob...I searched for you all over, called you many time, What the hell is going on here?" To tell the truth her, her acting was extremely professional, maybe because a part of her feel that way, after she finished talking the look on their faces was extremely pale and complex, they can't even give any kind of explanation, all the odds are against them. They were caught cheating, stabbing people. In their minds all those facades they built up for years crumbled in minutes, for me I was watching and taking a video from the start of the event, as a little backup plan.

Flustered, SHEN HUI said "Weren't you the one who cheated on me first with those gangsters!"

She replied "When did I?"

"Yesterday! Don't think that I don't know about it! I saw you yesterday going with them after you got out from this club" he said while getting agitated and scared at the same time

"What are you saying? Yesterday I went to my friend's home with her! I was with the whole time, and more importantly didn't you say that you were going to a group study with your friends how can you even say that you saw me?" she said with a faint smile

"Lies, I clearly saw you, I was doubting for a long time so I tailed you!" he replied while shaking

"My friend is here, she can testify for me, also I am a **, if you don't believe me we can go to the hospital!" she acted like she was about to cry, I put the phone in my chest leaving only the camera and I went to SUN and held her "There you are you suddenly disappeared in the crowd I searched for you everywhere! Didn't you promise me that you'll stay with me today too?"

SUN got stunned for a second but regained her concentration right away.

''Do you know these psychos? They are bad people you'd better stay away from them! They might hurt you!"

SHEN HUI yelled "Impossible, they couldn't have failed! MOON and I spent a lot of time and money to hire them! You are lying! You aren't a **! You dirty cheater!"

The crowd start whispering "What an awful guy!", "Seriously who hires people to rape his girlfriend", "Maybe what happened to their faces is divine punishment", "I really felt sorry for them at first", " They deserve it!", "They can't be good people, look at what they did to the waitress and the people who tried to stop them!"

Having realized what he said, SHEN got uneasy, he and Ying started sweating, all the eyes were on them, everyone started yelling together "MONSTERS! GET OUT! YOU DON'T DESERVE OUR PITY! OOOOOOOOOOO!!" in the end they started crying and screaming their tears made the burns hurt even more, while the people were merciless they spilled their drinks on them. SUN looked very refreshed. I forgot to mention it earlier, I destroyed all the cameras downstairs, just a little bit of energy and they stopped working!

After a while the manager came with a few guards, they chased the crowd from the second floor, in the commotion I disposed of the "drinks" and dragged SUN to the sides, when I told her about the video she started laughing but didn't let anyone notice it. I wanted her opinion to blackmail them for money, this could end up really well since her stepfather is a politician, and SHEN's family is rich, they really care about their reputation, if this video got out, it would create quite the scandal, at worst they might even get disowned by their families, of course I wouldn't act without SUN's agreement. She was fascinated by the idea, and I just got the right person to do it!

While we were talking one of the guards came to us to chase us away, I wanted to keep low profile so I went with what he said, as I was passing I looked at them, they were pitiful, the waitress who just woke up looked confused and scared, her pride and arrogance were shattered to pieces. After that we left

right away.

At home, we found CHEN LIANG waiting at the door, it was unbelievable, he was sleeping near the door, I never thought in my life I would see someone sleeping with his eyes open, it was simply creepy, he would've never guessed that he would wake up with a kick between his legs, even his screams were otherworldly, after he sobered up, I asked him if he found anything worth my time, he gave me a big smirk and said

"Hehe don't underestimate my network, my employer is NING QI, she is currently the CEO of M&W, after her husband's death and her stepdaughter's mysterious disappearance, she is given the right to manage the company, she is a vicious woman I bet she will drown the company in debt before the original heiress returns, ah! I almost forgot, it seems she adopted an orphan girl named something like ZHOU DAIYU and engaged her to the famous heir of the ZHANG family ZHANG FENG, but something is definitely weird, she acts as if she is sure the heiress would never return. How can she be so sure?"

The more I listened to him the angrier I became, I was full of rage, I am so tired of their dirty plans, but I forced myself to calm down first. CHEN LIANG asked "by the way what's your name miss?" Since I decided to hide my identity I called myself MIST QI, I plan on creating a fake ID tomorrow, and my appearance changed so I don't think anyone would recognize me. I told him he did a good job and rewarded him with 3k, he seemed pleased so it's okay. I was really wasted, I wasn't tired physically in fact after advancing to the first stage of Body Refining I could go on without sleeping for a week but I was mentally exhausted, after all this events that piled up a normal person would've gone crazy, everything father and mother worked hard to build is now at the hands of a traitorous snake that will ruin everything, it's like what they built up all their lives is crumbling in a second, I can't tolerate it so I need to act faster!

So first I must increase my cultivation, for that I started moving my QI according to the Star Dragon Meridians, after a few hours I reached the middle tiers of the first stage and managed to open my ears meridian, I never thought I would open two meridians while still in the first stage. But I need to be extremely careful and control my ability first, since I became sensitive to high sounds, I can't even imagine the pain that would result in if my ability activated in a place with a high noise. But this ability is extremely helpful I can even here sounds from hundreds of miles no matter how low it is and also identify the exact location of it which would be extremely convenient in a fight, right now I am confident I can fight anyone with my eyes closed.

It's already late, but before I went to bed I remembered a site I came across not too long ago, at first I was scared and never thought that I would use it one day, I created an account and started surfing, they were many requests but none appealed to me, either the money was not enough or the requests were too binding, there were too many conditions, when I was just about to logout a new request was added with the awarded money of 50 million Yuan it's a crazy number, but the mission is to protect the family's wife and her daughter and help exterminating the opposite fraction, I hesitated for a bit but then the system announced another quest

New quest: Earn big

Accept the mission and carry it successfully

Protect SNOW YI and her daughter XIU LAN

(SNOW YI was a widow whose husband mysteriously disappeared, they didn't find his corpse till a year later, leaving her as the XIU household's head which was actively opposed by the elders but she didn't give up the position which resulted in internal conflict, and some traitors sold them out to the DI family, which most probably took action to kill them which led to the current situation)

Extra:

Make Snow and her daughter fall in love with you, and make them your followers

REWARDS

1000 CP

100 EP

"HEAVEN LIGHTNING SWIFT STEPS"

EXTRA

500 EP

"BODY INNER VISUALIZATION"

"MIRAGE LIGHTNING"

"DRAGON SCALES SKIN REFINING"

The first thing I thought of is why does it seem like the system reversed the rewards? Seriously the extra has the best rewards Am I hallucinating? I pinched myself and this is indeed reality! The world is going crazy. And how the hell can I make a pair of mother daughter fall in love with me?

I took a deep breath and I accepted the mission, this is going to be a pain in the neck especially that extra. I entered my contact and email and sent it to them. I turned off my laptop and went to check on SUN, she was sleeping soundly, her body was extremely charming, her long white hair had a majestic aura around it, her white soft skin gave out a glimmer like that of a pearl, her round hips were perfect, even her big chest was flawless, without forgetting her sweet and kind character. How could that SHEN HUI discard such a jewel for a piece of mudstone, the difference is like heaven and earth, sigh…I suspect he was blind even before the accident.

The next day, the first thing in the morning, I went to create a fake ID, with the use of hypnotism I registered a new ID with the name MIST QI the age and everything else were the same, as for the picture I just took one, anyway no one would recognize me, the plain average looking me died and was reborn as new after that bonus, I even endured before people gazing at me and whispering that it was heaven's mistake to be born to such a wealthy family, but all that was in the past as I am now I neither lack appeal nor power, so I sealed those memories with my naïve self and decided to move on, right after completing the procedures I even got it immediately, I went directly to school to add MIST QI to the list of students and delete YA XIFENG, even though I don't need to go college anymore, but that's the best ground for investigation so I can't afford to lose an opportunity to gain connections and some pieces of information. I plan to introduce myself as a transfer student who just came back from overseas to study here. Everything went smoothly, I am now enrolled here as MIST QI.

I returned home to find SUN up and making breakfast, I couldn't help myself and hugged from the back she twitched at first but calmed down when she realized it was me, she gave me that attitude "Geez, don't do it again, you startled me! I could die you know" it was so cute to see her fake anger, it was obvious she didn't hate it so I decided to tease her a bit more "I just couldn't hold back after seeing how hot your body is" I whispered to her with my mouth too close to her ears, she immediately blushed she tried to brush me off out of embarrassment but I held too tightly, I turned her and almost kissed her rosy lips, with every millimeter closer the more flushed she becomes and she said "No we shouldn't do this I am older than you, and besides we are both girls!" Once she said I couldn't hold my laughter I sat down and made a bit fun of her, the face she showed was as red as a tomato it was so funny, the next few seconds I learnt how scary girls are, I took a beating and was told to cook my breakfast if I want to eat, even though I said sorry so many times she didn't even falter. In the commotion I heard my phone ring I went to check it was an unknown number, after I picked up it's about the mission of yesterday, the one who answered was an elegant voice of a young woman, she asked that she will be coming to the address I gave them with her daughter to discuss the matters of the mission I agreed but at the same time was puzzled How come they'll come here? Isn't it supposed to be the opposite? But I gave up after a few tries I can't figure it out, I'll just have to wait for them to arrive, I started cultivating.

An hour later, I was interrupted by SUN, who said with a bit of an angry expression that someone is knocking, the first people that came to my mind are SNOW and her daughter, I opened the door to find a good looking man in a suit of a butler, I peeked beside him was a large car that's even the rich could not afford, I stayed in daze for a moment but the guy's words woke me up "Hello my name is HAO DING, are you miss MIST QI?" he asked with a respectful tone, he was clearly well trained to do his job, but even so there was something lacking, I couldn't find the least bit of sincerity in his words, which was clearly directed only at me, it's as if this person is not who he is in the inside, he looks used to wear a façade to the point it became almost impossible to crack down, but anyway I am in no position to critique a person, so I answered while showing him the ID "Yes, I am, do you have any business with me?"

After I said that he turned around and tilted his head, as soon as he did that two charming women got out of the car, one was in her late thirties but she looked as if she is 23 years old, she had dark long smooth hair, her glimmering violet eyes were perfect shaped, her rosy lips could seduce any man in the world, let alone her perfect curves: her breasts and hips were voluminous while her waist was very slim, the other one was probably 19 or 20, she gave of the vibe of an untamed girl, she was on guard against everything except the other female, and her body can't match her age, she had the same attire as the other one but smaller, also her hair was brownish and her eyes were dark blue, both of them were top grade beauties.

The older one was smiling and came close and told me that she was SNOW YI, I told her I knew who she was and she is the one from the mission, she taken back for a bit because they didn't mention the names of the employer in the website, I told her "I just guessed but it looks like I was right, because no one else who would come find me in such a car and fit the criteria" also because no one knows this name except you I mumbled to myself. I invited her inside and whispered that we have to talk in private, only the three of us, the butler is not allowed, she looked confused but I insisted, in the end she gave in and refused him, he of course objected but couldn't ignore it because she ordered him, though her looked as if she wanted to bite me, we entered the house I took them to a room upstairs where no one would overhear and told SUN not to disturb us, SUN pouted her mouth and let out a "Hmph" I took it as an okay.

What happened to the mother daughter that they decided to come to YA XIFENG instead of the opposite? Why did YA XIFENG forbid the butler from coming in? Will MC be able to protect the pair?

SNOW YI and her daughter sat on the couch while I sat on a chair facing them, even though the mother was smiling her daughter was giving glares that meant clearly that she didn't like me, I didn't want to approach them this way but there is no other choice " I think that the butler of earlier is a traitor, I do not wish to ruin our relationship but I must point out my observations, consider this a free advise even if we didn't manage to reach an agreement."

At that moment SNOW's turned stiff but didn't say anything, obviously any other person would be stuck choosing who she'll trust, XIU LAN took the opportunity and grabbed her mother's hand and said "Mom let's get out of here! I knew it! She is a swindler trying to break our family from the inside! HAO DING was serving us for so long, now she wants to break us from the inside! This wretch is a parasitic bug!" but SNOW didn't move it seems she noticed something but this is just a guess, a few seconds later her expression turned serious, "Why do you think so?" SNOW said with a cold tone, really her voice can reflect winter's coldness, LAN tried to interfere but her mother stopped her and said again "Miss can you please answer my question?" her eyes emitted an icy aura that made even the short tempered XIU LAN sit back without moving any further, I only spoke one sentence and told her if she can't grasp the meaning behind it, then it's useless to continue this discussion "That man is so used to acting that putting up a front was no big deal anymore!" I said with a bit of killing intent, everyone fell into silence, a mere fly can echo through the room several times, XIU LAN who was still surprised could feel the coldness reach her spine, she expressed of a mixture of fear and worry, she became like a caged beast who lost hope on being set free, while SNOW and I exchanged murderous glares, no wonder she was able to hold out for so long as the *unwanted* family head, when she gets serious she becomes a different person, but I still didn't know if she understood my meaning, if not I don't have any reason to continue this request, after all guarding a person who can't even distinguish allies from enemies even with a tip is definitely not worth it even with the huge sum of money, in fact it will bring destruction more than benefits, at the time LAN was still shaking, the mood got even more freezing, then in the end SNOW responded "I see, I felt something wrong but I couldn't grasp it! But now it got clearer!" then she added "Thank you! I'll deal with him right away! He will not be forgiven after selling my family out! Now let's talk about the original matter" LAN who wanted to interfere but couldn't tell a word, but at the same moment I started laughing with cold expression "Seriously, that's a disappointment, if you think that way there's no need for further discussion! You can always hire someone else" I said while rising my killing intent, it seems that SNOW is the type who is best for handling direct situations or crisis but she isn't the one who plans further, she is too focused to protect and purge the family of traitors that she loses track of other paths possible, after that SNOW who was laid back for a moment said in a freezing tone "Does that mean I need to keep a traitor who may even be involved in my husband's murder!" she was emitting a lot of hatred toward him and me she may have misunderstood my statement, she maybe thought I am toying with her or have some relations with her enemy, "Miss SNOW do not misunderstand what I said, there are thousands of ways to deal with spies and traitors and even the ones behind them better than directly purging them, in fact the latter is the worst way to do it!" I said while firmly glaring at her, she answered doubtfully "Then what can be considered the best? Leave them until they ruin you!" I replied while sighing "Use them! And ruin them and the ones behind them! And don't trust anyone!" he got in a deep thought and asked "How..?" "That's something that should wait until we reach an agreement, now let's move on to the topic!"

SNOW calmed down and alleviated her cold gaze, she returned to the warm mature woman character, of course I smiled while stopping emitting the killing intent, at that moment LAN breathed heavily as if she was drowning and just got out of the water, her domineering and wild nature is nowhere to be found, instead a silent girl sitting, it seems that she is not used to that kind of pressure, I turned my line of sight toward her and said "As the heiress of such a big family being able to emit and bear such aura easily is a must, if not you'll be only a little frail sheep in the middle of a pack of hungry wolves. You must become strong, cold, and lessen you wildness and aggressiveness because it leads to impulsiveness which will only result in your doom. You can be angry, but it must never show on your face nor affect you decisions, you can be wary of people in fact you must but you should never let the other party notice it. The more expressionless you become the better your performance will be, and believe me as someone with a worse experience: Heed my most important three advices for you, first don't be hot headed: Do not be swayed easily nor judge without enough data, second revise your trust: Don't blindly believe anyone even you own brother or sister: There are some matters to a secret for you alone and when you suspect don't exclude anyone, third and lastly don't leave trails for your enemy to catch you: Even if he threats you using the life of your mother don't agree and stay calm, remember don't act the way the enemy wants because that's the path he planned and of course the one to his/her victory! And I am talking from what happened to me, if we have the chance to become closer in the future I will tell you my story" XIU LAN was looking at me with a blank expression, like my words made her dive in a deep thought. Even SNOW was surprised, she seemed to have understood the meaning and wanted to ask me what happened but she couldn't.

SNOW YI started telling me what happened, I listened carefully even though I knew it from the system, in summary after her husband's death powers lurking from the shadows started planning things: They first incited the people opposing SNOW taking over the household to make trouble and they are waiting for a chance to get rid of her, we reached an agreement I'll take a fifth of the money before and the rest will be until I finish the requests under the condition that they'll move here with SUN and I, and they mustn't bring anything from their home. She understood what I was thinking and agreed, while XIU LAN seemed restless but trying to hide it, 'She may be trying to take my advice' I thought to myself, I told her that they'll start living here starting from now and about the butler, the moment I mentioned him SNOW remembered something and told me with eyes filled with curiosity "Ah! How do you deal with traitors?" I started laughing and told her "Use him while let him think he used you! Be wary of him, and you can move the enemy behind him at will, leak what you want the enemy to do but be careful to not let him notice a thing. Especially if you want to build to trap the enemy make it look like he is the one who has the lead, feign temporary loss to achieve permanent victory!"

She answered while smiling "Okay, that's too crazy, but I'll need your help doing that!" I decided to tease her a bit "No, that's too troublesome, I am too lazy to do such things" SNOW was surprised and said "Please, I can pay more money!" I still answered with a no, LAN was also getting agitated, but SNOW added with perplexed tone "I'll….pay you double!" Seeing her sincerity I felt a bit guilty then I approached her and put my hands on her waist and pulled her next to me to the point where my breasts rested on the top of hers because I am a bit taller and I whispered in her ear "I don't want money, I want you…., if you want me to help you must consider marrying me" she blushed, even with her mature vibe she couldn't hide her flushed face, at that moment XIU couldn't contain herself as she tried to push me off her mother, by in the end I grabbed her waist and pulled her in and said "Did you forget my advices already" she was flustered, while I had an odd feeling of satisfaction.

Just when I let them go we heard a crash downstairs, we ran to see what happened, we were surprised the butler's face turned to that of a pig and his collar grabbed by SUN, I immediately asked her what happened, it seems that this guy was sneaking in to listen to our conversation until SUN got a hold of him, he tried to abduct her she played with it to see his real intention, she told me he said "I never expected to find such goods here, boss will appreciate a new toy, especially as good looking as you but I'll have to do the tasting myself" Of course you can imagine the rest.

Okay, change of plan this guy must die, I tied him and threw him in the basement, I turned to SNOW and winked at her both of them were bright red, I informed her that for this guy I will resort to torture because he overstepped his boundaries, I also told SUN that they would be living with us the first thing she asked was "What about training? Isn't it a secret anymore?" I remembered, but I told her to do it by herself since I still need to fulfil the mission.

I went downstairs with SNOW, while SUN and XIU LAN stayed there chatting, she mysteriously opened up to SUN easily, well once we reached that guy, he was relieved to see SNOW as he thought he is out of the frying pan, I removed the tape blocking his mouth and he said immediately "You'll pay for this! Miss, you shouldn't work with these barbarians! Look at what they did to me! And you b*tch will only face your doom! Do you know you offended the whole XIU family with this! Now untie me and go hide in your rat hole waiting for your end!" even though he was cursing at me he was talking normally, I answered with a cold tone "Well let's see who will be crawling, do you think you, a worthless worm, is qualified to talk to me like that, well I'll let your miss SNOW do the honor" as I told him she came near him and said "You'd better talk before it's too late, don't go telling afterwards me I didn't warn you! Well that's if you keep your head intact!"

HAO DING seemed perplexed, he turned his face to see SNOW glaring at him with cold eyes, at that moment his relieved expression turned to fear and anxiety, she said with very calm tone but for HAO it was a nightmare that will hunt his dreams, "Just tell me since when did I start having *toys* to eat? Oh! And you get to do the tasting, isn't that generous from you? Are you worried they wouldn't be good enough? I appreciate it so when is my next toy coming?" HAO was extremely scared but in the end he knew she heard SUN explanation because there's no way she would focus on *toy* if she didn't, he knew he was screwed but he said "No, I am sorry, I just wanted her for myself and used Boss's name!"

Little did he know, that sentence alone would be his end, well he was fairly stupid, but what was the funniest thing is SNOW's response, well at least for me, "Oh! Since when did I grow a p*nis to be called boss? Well from you words it's not even me! So who are you working for my little butler?" At that moment DING realized how grave the mistake he made, first calling someone else his boss in front of SNOW, he has no way to retaliate, boss usually is referred to man, but the worse is calling another one boss in front of the actual head, that was like admitting he is one of the traitors, and the punishment is hell, he seemed like he wanted to say something but words escaped him, he was sweating like crazy, he wished he could throw himself in an endless pit because from now on only nightmares will take form, and he knew from now on death is way better and more merciful than his life, SNOW asked him again "So who is this boss of yours?" he lost hope, not talking means death, but saying it is way worse, he remained silent, cursing his own idiocy, if he didn't try to abuse the girl from earlier none of this would have happened, he got greedy and lustful which made him lose his everything but even so he tried his luck tricking snow "It's you miss SNOW, it's just I was trying to confuse her, I am sorry for my behavior, but I didn't want to taint your reputation, this man confess his sin so please I plead for mercy" SNOW just laughed a cold grin, her violet eyes' color became deeper and darker, while HAO DING was crying while pleading for mercy, I pulled snow and held her while whispered to her that I know a greater way to make him talk, her cold gaze became warmer and her cheeks started getting redder, HAO DING was confused and stopped his fake tears, I got close to him I didn't talk, I untied one of his hands, I smiled again and said "Who are you working for?" He didn't talk so without further notice I broke one of his fingers, his voice almost made my ears go numb… After hours of crazy screams, he finely succumbed, and what he said made SNOW go pale it seems this matter is worse than we thought.

After I sent SNOW up, I killed him and turned him to 80 EP, it seems this guy was really vicious, even though he isn't that strong, he killed so many people, which is why he gave that much EP.

"What is this?" I asked the system answered that this is a new function that was locked, it's useful but at the same time not, and well it's not bad so I can't complain. I went to the store to see if something useful can come out of this 80 EP, I was eyeing [TELEPATHY] but maybe there is something else good.

While I was strolling in the store many things were available what caught my attention are these two

______________________________

Well right now I don't know, should I save for the first or for the second? In the end I'll buy them both but first maybe I am going to save up to the future sight because I have a feeling something big is coming, ever since the appearance of this system and that voice, I have felt an ominous feeling: Right now I feel if I miss this chance things would go wrong.

I went upstairs and went to the living room I saw SNOW pale and sitting alone while XIU LAN is crying on her shoulders, the information from earlier had a big impact on them, while SUN was cooking something hoping that it'll calm them down, I went and talked with SUN a bit especially those two need some time alone to revise their feelings, after a while I went to them and as they were sitting, I stood on my knees and gave both of them a hug, SNOW reddened but started tearing up and sniffling, while XIU LAN started hitting my shoulder with her hand while crying "Why are your advices spot on?...Why?...How can it be him?...*sniffle…" I didn't say anything I just stayed like that, a while later SUN joined us as well and hugged them.

We stayed like that for about 20mins, in the end XIU LAN ended up sleeping with tears in her eyes, while SNOW laid down with a complex expression, SUN went to get the food, while I wiped LAN's face and took her to her new room and left her to sleep, after all what happened weighted heavily on her mind.

We ate, SNOW started to cheer up bit by bit, in the end she bowed to me and thanked me, I told her that SUN's and my stories are nowhere near good and that I'll tell her later after I am ready to speak.

For now I have to gather enough EP for that item, I went outside and headed to a small alley where gangsters usually gather, once they saw me they started drooling like pigs, in the end they were small fries, all of them altogether only worth 15 EP less than that lawyer, well the last one didn't join his comrades right away, since I had him tell me the location of their base. I put a cloth to hide my face and tied my breasts with a long cloth tape to hide their size, it was extremely painful and uncomfortable though nothing I can't handle, I went to the base, massacred some bandits and freed some girls who were forced to attend to those men's' *desires. All the gangsters gave me 50 EP, well more likely the boss gave me 20 EP and the other 30 men gave me 30 EP, I never imagined I would see a small fry giving 1 EP each, I would ashamed if I compared them to ants, that reminds me I never tried getting EP from animals, though the system used beast but I wonder why is that, something tells it has something to do with the bad feeling I have.

When I got home SNOW also went to sleep while SUN was cultivating.

I sat on the couch and purchased [future sight] I used it right away, an extreme pain run through my brain, and my head got dizzy, my sight blurry, I was drowning in deep black see with no end, I lost consciousness.

____________________________________________

What will YA XIFENG see in the future? Is it really bad like she felt? And what piece of news HAO DING say to make SNOW YI and XIU LAN feel like that?
