...****************...

Chapter 1: Rebirth

Tianling Dynasty.

The royal family’s ancestral hall.

There was a strong smell of blood in the somber main hall.

There was a woman trapped in the silver cage that sat in the middle of the hall.

She lay on the floor, curled up into a ball as she trembled. Her ornate palace gown was dyed with blood, the skirt eerily empty—her legs had been cut off!

There was the sound of footsteps, and Shangguan Yue looked up with much difficulty.

A familiar face appeared before her eyes.

Her heart wildly trembled because the person who appeared was none other than her fiancée whom she was set to wed—Jiang Yucheng!

“Shangguan Yue, how does it feel to lose your force and become an invalid?”

Shangguan Yue looked at him in disbelief. “It was you!”

Jiang Yucheng smiled. “How does the snow tea that I have been brewing for you for the past three years taste with a side of mortalizing powder?”

Shangguan Yue froze, then laughed desolately. She thought they had a perfect romance, but he had been out to get her right from the start! The expression on her face gradually turned cold. “Jiang Yucheng, do you know what the punishment for murdering the princess is?”

Jiang Yucheng smiled and remained silent, but a female voice appeared in the main hall. “Sister, now that things have come to this, do you still think that you’re still the high and mighty princess?”

Shangguan Yue whipped her head around, and a girl walked in elegantly. It was the sister that she doted on the most—Shangguan Wan!

The face that was usually gentle and timid was now obnoxious and arrogant!

“One day and one night, you’ve lost almost all your blood. Who’s going to come and save you? Our critically ill father, or your Thirteen Yue Guard far away at the frontiers?”

Shangguan Yue’s heart turned cold. “Father’s illness… it was you?!” They were probably behind the departure of the Thirteen Yue Guard as well!

Shangguan Wan blinked and patted her chest before she looked towards Jiang Yucheng coyly.

“Yucheng, sister’s so fierce. Wan’er is scared.”

Jiang Yucheng smiled as he put his arm around her waist. “What’s there to be scared of? She’s nothing but an invalid now. If we use her blood to cultivate your Yuan meridian, your talents will increase drastically. By then, everything will be yours!”

Shangguan Wan looked at her sister with jealousy. “Sister, you were born with a Tianjing Yuan meridian, crowned as the ordained princess. Everything you had was the best! But why? Just because your mother was the queen, while mine was a concubine?”

She was indignant, so she wanted to take everything that Shangguan Yue had and make it hers. “Don’t worry. From now on, the man you love and your future throne, I will take good care of them on your behalf!”

Shangguan Yue felt that there were weights on her chest and that she was about to explode! The two people that she trusted the most were betraying her!

As Shangguan Wan admired her sister’s tortured expression, it did not seem to be enough for her. “Oh, right. Sister, on account of your care all these years, I’ll make sure to send you off properly. Hopefully, you can be reunited with your mother and brother, who died young,” she added.

The words were like grenades that exploded by Shangguan Yue’s ears. Could it be that her mother and brother’s fatal accident by the frozen lake was not an accident?

“Did you know that when seventh brother died, he was still calling for you…”

“Shangguan Wan!” Shangguan Yue cried out.

Harming her father, betraying her, cutting off her legs, and trapping her here. All of these crimes were unpardonable! Little did she expect that her revered mother and favorite brother had perished in their hands too!

She glared at the pair with bloodshot eyes as if she were a demon from the depths of hell. In the next instance, a crimson fire swept across the hall. Shangguan Yue had activated the self-destruction mechanism of the Tianjing Yuan meridian in her body.

A fireball the size of a longan flew out and headed straight for Shangguan Wan’s dantian!

Shangguan Wan immediately felt her Yuan meridian burning! She began screaming in panic. “My Yuan meridian!”

Even though Jiang Yucheng managed to avoid it narrowly, half of his right arm had been sliced off!

“If I get a second chance at life… I’ll have my vengeance!” Shangguan Yue’s words were like a curse!

Nobody saw the flashing cryptic characters that formed on the pool of blood!

…

Year 1653 of the Tianling Dynasty. Princess Shangguan Yue passed away because of Qi deviation.

…

Pain!

Pain that could be felt in the bones!

It was like her flesh was being ripped apart and burned!

A fuzzy voice appeared in her ears. “Heh heh, big brother, even though this lass is like a twig, her face is stunning. Isn’t it kind of a waste to kill her just like this?”

“Yeah! Big brother, no matter what, she is the Chu family’s Big Missy. It must feel good to play with her!”

“Cheh, what Big Missy? This useless thing that doesn’t even have the Yuan meridian. The entire Chu family treats her as the family’s black sheep!”

“Big brother, since Third Missy only said to make her disappear, can’t we just burn everything after we’re done? It’s not like people from the Chu family will come looking for her.”

Fire?

Fire!

There was a sharp pain in Shangguan Yue’s brain, and she opened her eyes!

Underneath the blinding lights, she saw a perverse looking man reaching towards her chest!

“You must be tired of living!” Shangguan Yue cried out, only to find that her voice was completely different from before! Her voice was raspy as if she had not had water for a long time. However, it was rather obvious that the voice belonged to a 12-year-old or 13-year-old girl!

Before she could think things through, she grabbed the man’s wrist and bent it hard. At the same time, she kicked her leg out!

“Ah!” A tragic cry echoed in the forest!

In his moment of carelessness, the man was kicked backward, and his hand was in an eerie state. It had been broken with brute force!

“Big brother!” The two men behind him were stunned as they rushed to catch him. They were shocked to see that the man had been hurt as they turned towards the girl.

What was going on?! Chu Liuyue was known for being the Chu family’s most useless member. She could not fight at all. Otherwise, she would not have been brought to this misty forest after they easily knocked her out!

But now, she managed to break the big brother’s hand!

“You little b*tch. How dare you raise your hand against me, Song Lian? I think you are the one who’s tired of living. Brothers, go and bring her over here!”

“Yes!” Even though they were confused, they rushed over without much thought.

The three of them were stage two warriors; how could Chu Liuyue be their match? That must have been a fluke!

Shangguan Yue narrowed her eyes as she regarded the two men advancing toward her. A dark light flashed across her eyes. She then ran straight for the two men!

Just as the three were about to clash, the two men swung their knives!

Shangguan Yue seemed to have been expecting that. She bent and took a step aside, heading straight toward one of the men.

Just inches away, she easily grabbed the man’s wrist and pressed down hard in a certain position!

A sense of powerlessness originated from her wrist, and the man’s knife froze right above the young girl’s head!

Shangguan Yue’s eyes turned cold as she turned. The direction of the knife changed and decapitated the man directly!

Warm blood splattered all across her face, but she did not even bat an eyelid!

Dong!

She released her hand emotionlessly, and the headless man fell to the ground!

A cold breeze came from behind her!

She struck with the knife without looking back at all!

The man, who was trying to sneak up on her, widened his eyes. Before his knife could land, he had been slashed across the waist!

Dong!

The clean cut sent chills down one’s spine!

Song Lian was stunned by everything that was unfolding before his eyes. What’s going on?! Chu Liuyue managed to kill two stage two warriors in the blink of an eye!

“Ch-chu Liuyue?! Are you insane?!” Song Lian’s voice was much sharper because of fear.

Shangguan Yue turned and frowned as she looked at the man who was supposed to kill her. She did not know them. Besides, they were too weak. At the very least, they should have sent stage eight warriors if they wanted to kill her. But now this…

That’s not right! Wasn’t I already dead? I was harmed by Jiang Yucheng and Shangguan Wan together in the royal family’s ancestral hall! Now…

She suddenly looked down at her hand that was holding onto the knife. This was a pair of slender and weak hands, but they had a number of calluses because of all the hard work it had done.

These aren’t my hands! Also, that man from earlier called me… Chu Liuyue?! Her gaze changed as she pieced everything together. “Third Missy sent you to kill me?”

Song Lian wanted to take the chance to kill Chu Liuyue, but the two people before him had died so tragically. Although he was not sure what kind of spell Chu Liuyue was under, he dared not act rashly.

His actions of kneeling down and crying out changed her thoughts and expression.

“Yes! Yes! It was all Third Missy’s orders! She asked us to abduct you while you were out shopping! She said she would give us 600 taels of silver as long as we made you disappear without anyone knowing! Big Missy, please have mercy on me! It was a moment of folly!”

Big Missy? Shangguan Yue felt her head throb when she heard that as if something was rushing to her head! The sharp pain made her take a step back, and her face was pale as a sheet.

Song Lian glanced at her, and his eyes turned vicious. In for a penny, in for a pound! The moment was now!

“Die!” As he cried out, he suddenly got up and flew towards Shangguan Yue! His energy was suddenly much stronger than it was before! He was already a stage three warrior!

But just as he was about to reach Shangguan Yue, a knife pierced his chest first!

It was the knife in Shangguan Yue’s hand!

Song Lian looked down in disbelief. How… When did Chu Liuyue become so strong?

He would never know the answer.

Bang!

The last one was killed too!

There was nothing but silence in the forest.

If not for the three bodies on the ground, nobody would ever expect such a skinny young girl to have that much strength!

Shangguan Yue supported herself using a tree. When the pain subsided, she realized that another person’s memories were in her head. After sorting everything out, she slowly opened her eyes and sighed.

It turned out that she had been reborn into the body of a young girl named Chu Liuyue. Chu Liuyue—the big missy of the Chu family—was from one of the four big families in Country Yao Chen.

Even though she was the big missy, her life was worse than the servants. She was born with a lacking Yuan meridian, so she could not cultivate. Therefore, she was seen as the shame of the Chu family.

Chu Liuyue’s mother died when she was very young. Her father, Chu Ning, had been first in line to be the family’s next head but was injured a few years ago. From then on, his status in the family plummeted. As such, it was not hard to imagine how hard she had been bullied since young.

The Third Missy that wanted to kill her was her second uncle, Chu Yao’s daughter—Chu Xianmin. She wanted to kill Chu Liuyue because of the marriage agreement that Chu Liuyue had.

It was with Country Yao Chen’s Crown Prince, Rong Jin!

Chu Liuyue would turn 14 in a month, and the engagement ceremony would be held then!

It was not only Chu Xianmin, but countless people also tried to kill her in the dark!

Shangguan Yue stood up, curling her pale lips into a smile. If she recalled correctly, Country Yao Chen was a subsidiary country of Tianling Dynasty!

This was not the end of her!

She was Chu Liuyue from now on!

The vengeance from her last life would be paid back a hundred-fold in this life!

“...”

...****************...

Chapter 1 - She Must Escape

Surrounded by scorching flames, Lu Man laid weakly on the floor and watched as her childhood sweetheart held her stepsister in his arms.

“Sl*t!” Lu Man glared at the shameless couple in front of her.

“Elder sister, you have already gone to prison, and you won’t have a good future even when you are released. Your mother is dead as well, and there is no one left in the world who cares for you anymore, so what is the use of staying alive?”

“The two of you schemed to send me to jail, caused my mother’s death and now you even want my life!” Lu Man’s whole body was weak, and her eyes were blood-red with anger.

“You deserve all of this,” He Zhengbai said. “If you are left alive, you will definitely tell people about what happened but I will not let you destroy what we have now.”

“Rest in peace, Elder Sister. Dad already knows about this whole thing and has also prepared an auspicious burial site. He remembers what you have done for the Lu family, and won’t mistreat you even after your death,” Lu Qi said gently.

Lu Man laughed loudly, her eyes bloodshot.

That was her own blood-related father. Yet for Lu Qi, he would even kill his own daughter!

Her father and her childhood sweetheart were the most important men in her life.

Yet her father only acknowledged Lu Qi as his daughter, while her childhood sweetheart treated Lu Qi as a treasure, and cared very little about her.

And now both of them wanted her to die!

Seeing the glass shards next to her hands, Lu Man suddenly pressed her hand onto them. The intense pain searing through her palm cleared her mind.

Clenching her teeth, Lu Man abruptly lunged at Lu Qi.

Lu Qi screamed, having been pushed down by Lu Man.

“Lu Man, let go of her!” He Zhengbai yelled loudly, heading forward to help save Lu Qi.

Lu Man used all her strength to pull Lu Qi into the flames, opened her mouth to bite Lu Qi’s ear.

Lu Qi gave a shrill scream.

With blood flowing out from between Lu Man’s teeth, she said, “Since you want me to die, then you might as well die with me!”

“No! Let go of me! Brother He, save me!” Lu Qi shrieked in fear. However, the flames had already begun to engulf both Lu Man and Lu Qi.

As He Zhengbai rushed over, a wardrobe that was on fire suddenly fell towards him.

Lu Man saw He Zhengbai’s features twist in fear as he got trapped beneath the closet.

With her face red, from the reflection of the flames, Lu Man cursed, “Both of you deserve to die a horrible death.”

Finally using her last bit of strength, she pulled Lu Qi into the flames with herself.

***

As Lu Man opened her eyes, she suffered from a splitting headache and felt like she had just come out of hell, so she was shocked when she saw her surroundings.

She found herself in a hotel room and on the carpet, around 4 to 5 feet away from her, lay a man in a pool of blood

This scene was all too familiar for Lu Man , as she has once been through this exact situation.

However, that was a very long time ago, almost as if it had happened in her past life.

Her past life...

Lu Man felt confused as she suddenly remembered about the incident. She should have died in the fire, yet how was she still alive??

She raised both her hands and found herself holding a bloodied table lamp in her right hand. Frightened, she quickly threw it away.

However, both her arms and hands were completely unharmed, pristine and fair and without a single scratch.

After taking one more look at the man, she finally confirmed when she saw his face that she had returned, back to when she was 22 years old.

In her past life, at this time, she was already Lu Qi’s assistant. Lu Qi had entered showbiz at 16-years-old, and by the time she was 20-years-old, she was already a popular star.

Lu Man’s dream had never been to enter showbiz, much less to be someone’s assistant. She had dreamed of becoming a fashion designer.

However, just because the two years younger Lu Qi had wanted to be an actress, Lu Qiyuan, Lu Man’s biological father, had invested in a film production company just to support Lu Qi. He was also scared that the ‘innocent’ Lu Qi would lose out in the complicated entertainment circle; so he had forcefully made his biological daughter, Lu Man, who had been studying fashion design at that time, pull out of school to become Lu Qi’s assistant. In fact, everyone in the company only knew Lu Qi as the daughter of the Lu family and did not know that Lu Man was a Lu family daughter as well.

Ha, even though she was the actual daughter of the Lu family, Lu Qiyuan’s biological daughter, it was Lu Qi, who had only entered the Lu family because her mother married into the Lu family, who was treated as the real heiress of the Lu family.

But she had never bothered about it as she still had to treat her mother’s illness. If she left in a fit of anger, what would have happened to her mother?

The man currently lying on the carpet is a certain famous director. Lu Qi wanted to be the main female lead in his movie and had come to this hotel room to discuss the role.

What else was there to discuss, with the meeting being held in a hotel room?

Lu Qi clearly understood it, but even Lu Qiyuan did not have enough authority to ask this movie director for a favor.

Even though the Lu family was rich, they still lacked behind in terms of their standing in society.

Lu Qi had called Lu Man to the meeting as well, but he had barely spoken before he started touching Lu Qi inappropriately, and even wanted Lu Man to join in. Lu Qi then decided to have Lu Man stay behind and entertain the director, with her leaving first.

Of course, Lu Man had refused and started to push and shove at Lu Qi. So in order to make Lu Man let her go, Lu Qi had taken the table lamp on the desk and had hit Lu Man’s head with it, causing Lu Man to become unconscious.

However, when she had been waving the table lamp around, she had accidentally cut the director’s neck with the sharp metal end of the lamp, causing blood to instantly flow out.

As Lu Man checked the time, she recollected that there remained only around two minutes before someone would come in and arrest her.

Her nightmarish life had started from that point onwards.

She must escape!

Just as Lu Man was about to climb out of the window, she suddenly saw the fallen table lamp by her side.

In her past life, Lu Qi had made use of the time when she was unconscious to wipe off the fingerprints belonging to Lu Qi and change it to Lu Man’s fingerprints.

Also in her past life, she had not woken up that early. Even after the hotel staff had entered the room, she had still been unconscious, and the table lamp in her hand had become the evidence that she had harmed the director.

However this time, Lu Man cleaned off the fingerprints on the table lamp, and surveyed the surroundings carefully, confirming that there was not even a single strand of her hair remaining.

Just when there was less than a minute left, she climbed out of the window.

SUMMARY

Terminally ill before even reaching the age of 40, Song Nuanyi awaited a gloomy end. Her death just happened to clash with her son’s wedding. Yet, her children, who she painstakingly raised, her mother-in-law, who she served for so many years, and her husband, who she exchanged vows with to love and cherish forever, none of them noticed her. When they finally discovered her corpse, they simply said, “Just bury it.”

Everyone else went on to enjoy the wedding while her funeral was empty with no visitors. No, one person did come. She watched as the person she despised cried his heart out in front of her grave, revealing his love for her. The sorrow in his voice made tears well up in her eyes.

When she opened her eyes again, she had returned in time to the day before her wedding. The memories of her past life were still vivid in her mind. She hurried to the race track and found the man to blurt out, “I’m getting married tomorrow. Don’t you want to crash the wedding? Don’t you want to steal me away?”

The man was stunned before snickering. “Ms. Song, did you hit your head?” She added insistently, “I’m asking you one last time, are you brave enough to come?” The man did not answer but pulled out a credit card instead. “Ms. Song, if something is wrong with your head, go and have it checked.” She took the card and said, “I’ll take this as your betrothal gift.”

Having said that, she left. The man was dumbstruck, as he never expected her to take his card.

News of the self-righteous young lady of the Song family seeking out the capital’s number one playboy, Young Master Jin, spread quickly. Someone asked the man what happened, but he just blew a whistle and said, “Come along with me tomorrow. We have a big business to do.”

Song Nuanyi was anxious because she did not know when he started liking her in their past life. Would he even show up tomorrow?

Character Setting:

Song Nuanyi – self-righteous, aloof, noble young lady

Wu Chenjin – frivolous, dandy, young master

...****************...

Chapter 1: I Won’t Let You Die

Fire!

The sky was ablaze with fire. Song Nuanyi’s world turned red. She lay weakly on the bed and watched the fire spread to the side of her bed.

Her bed was ignited. First, the blanket, the pillow, her long hair, and then her hands...

It hurt!

It really hurt!

So this was how it was like to be burned to death...

Her heart was filled with sorrow. Only today did she know that her husband, whom she had been in love with for 30 years, actually liked men!

He actually wanted to kill her for that man.

She was kept in the dark and deceived for 30 years like a fool.

The smell of gasoline in the air stimulated her nerves. Her eyes were red from the smoke. Even so, she did not shed a single tear. Her eyes were filled with resentment. She was unwilling to accept this. Even if she became a ghost, she would not let those people go.

The charred door was suddenly kicked open from the outside. She watched as a figure suddenly walked in.

“Song Nuanyi!” That person saw her on the bed and rushed toward her, ignoring the fire around her. He rushed toward her with anger and worry.

Wu Chenjin...

......

Song Nuanyi could no longer make a sound and suddenly shed a tear when she saw him. In the end, the person who came to save her was actually the man she had hated for her entire life.

Suddenly, a burning cabinet fell in the man’s direction. Under Song Nuanyi’s terrified gaze, Wu Chenjin was smashed to the ground. His legs were caught in the fire. He raised his head, not caring about the injuries on his body, he staggered to her side with pure determination.

Song Nuanyi’s eyes were blurred by tears. She wanted him to go, to save himself, but she could not. She could not even move her fingers. After so many years of torture, she had become almost inhuman.

Wu Chenjin used his hands to extinguish the flames on her body and carefully carried her. “Be good, don’t cry. I’ll take you out now.”

When he got up, his body swayed. Blood dripped from his legs and was evaporated by the surrounding flames.

He did not care at all. He used his body to block the flames and took her step by step to the door.

Song Nuanyi whimpered. It was the first time she saw this man in such a sorry state. The hair on his head had been burned bald, and his body was full of wounds. His face was also burned beyond recognition.

However, he had really brought her out.

As soon as he stepped out of the room, he immediately knelt on the ground. His legs could no longer move, but he still protected Song Nuanyi in his arms. He held her tightly as if she was a precious treasure.

At this moment, Song Nuanyi felt as if the sky had collapsed. The entire world had collapsed the moment the man appeared. She cried so hard that she could not make a sound.

A smile appeared on Wu Chenjin’s face. The pain on his face made him realize how terrifying he must look right now. He smiled and said, “What are you crying for? Did I scare you? Don’t worry. I will definitely save you. I promise.”

Song Nuanyi shook her head and wanted to say no, but she could not say it out loud.

He used a smile to cover the trembling in his voice. “Song Nuanyi, I saved you this time. You will be mine from now on. You have to repay me with your life. Otherwise, it would be a waste for me to like you so much.”

At that moment, the people who were blocked by the Cao family rushed in. They were shocked when they saw their Master Jing’s miserable look. They quickly came to support him. Wu Chenjin shook his head and handed Song Nuanyi to them, he said, “Send her to the hospital first.”

Song Nuanyi was surprised by his words, and she was handed to a bodyguard. She turned to look in Wu Chenjin’s direction. She tried hard to open her mouth, but she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. She knew that she would not survive.

Wu Chenjin pounced on her and almost fell to the ground. His eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed her wrist and roared, “Song Nuanyi, I won’t allow you to die. You will live well, you hear me?”

Song Nuanyi wanted to touch him, but her raised hand hung limply, and the light in her eyes slowly extinguished.

Her last glance was of Wu Chenjin with tears falling from his eyes. This tear seemed to have directly dripped into her heart, and it felt boiling hot. She could not bear this love.

I’m sorry, Wu Chenjin...

If there’s an afterlife, then it’s my turn to love you...

“I don’t want to see the Cao family again.”

The people behind him immediately nodded and accepted the order. One sentence determined the life and death of the Cao family.

Wu Chenjin returned to Lin Wan Villa. This was the place where he and Song Nuanyi met for the first time.

With his legs badly burned, he sat in the wheelchair, still hugging Song Nuanyi in his arms.

A coffin was carried in here. A few people took shovels and dug a big pit in the yard. After seeing their grandfather carrying Song Nuanyi into the coffin, they did not dare to move at all.

“Continue.”

Those people closed the coffin in fear and trepidation. Wu Chenjin hugged Song Nuanyi and said, “Can you give me your next life?”

“If you don’t say anything, I’ll take it as a promise.”

...
