The 'Bloody Banquet' arc ends in this chapter. Please continue reading to the next arc which tells about the Forest of a Thousand Nights and the changes to our female MC.
Thinking about this, Shen Ji's body began to feel weak. Never mind wealth in exchange for saving one's life, while the most valuable things at the moment are only her clothes and the butterfly hairpin she is wearing in her hair. but he also thought, who would want to ask for clothes from someone with a skin disease like him? Shen Ji dared to turn her head towards the touch that landed on the nape of her neck, then moved towards the left side of her back. The moment his neck moved to the side, Shen Ji's eyes met a pair of eyes that made him startled again, and he spontaneously shouted, "Mon--mon ... monkeyeeeeeeet!" "Monkeys! Help, there are monkeys!" The loudness of Shen Ji's scream made the monkey startled and frightened. The furry animal immediately jumped onto a tree branch and hid. The two of them then both ran away in opposite directions. if the monkey ran jumping through the trees, while Shen Ji ran suddenly into the forest because she was afraid of the furry anima
Suddenly, his eyes flashed the faces of the two men he had to kill. There was a strangeness in Yu Shan's demeanor who seemed to really care about him and there was a warmth in Shen Ming's demeanor who seemed to have a calm, patient, gentle personality.Qing Yuan then sat on the rocks while bending his knees. His gaze was far away looking somewhere. There was a strange feeling that he couldn't express in words.Qing Yuan felt annoyed himself. He then picked up three stones and threw them onto the surface of the water with his usual throw. "Damn! Why should I think about the goodness of those people?"The first throw creates small waves that cause the water falling on the rocks to move up and down quickly."I shouldn't think about the enemy I have to kill!" Qing Yuan said angrily as he threw the second stone again with more force.The waves it caused were bigger than before and managed to scare the animals living in the river so they ran aw
Princess Chu Rong Xi was the eighth daughter of Emperor Chu Qi who reigned in the Chu Empire at this time.The princess is said to have such perfect beauty that she is nicknamed the Moon of Chu. No man other than her brother was allowed to see the princess's face directly without the emperor's permission.Princess Chu Rong Xi also had to wear a veil when appearing in public and also when traveling. In short, the princess was highly favored by the entire imperial family.Shen Ji didn't know if her scream had managed to startle someone."Shen?" Qing Yuan's eyes suddenly opened wide when he heard the familiar surname. "That girl said her name was Shen Ji? Did I hear correctly? What is her relationship with Shen Ming?""And he is someone who has been bullied by many people?" The handsome young man thought until his brows furrowed. "Usually, people who have experienced bad things in their lives, then they keep it as a source of revenge and wan
Shen Ji was so shocked that her heart beat fast. She thought she heard someone just talking to she.The girl seemed unable to catch her breath because she was so scared."Impossible!" Shen Ji couldn't believe that she was dead.If she was dead, why did this place feel so familiar to she?Shen Ji looked at the surroundings which were filled with various types of wild trees of various sizes. The place afterward was very dangerous, but the girl accidentally entered this wilderness.It wasn't that she wasn't afraid, but Shen Ji also thought that a dangerous place was actually the safest place."Are there ghosts in this forest?" Shen Ji started to feel goosebumps and horror. She imagined that a tall black figure with a very ugly face might be watching she."Who is there?" Shen Ji asked with a trembling voice. "Is it a ghost talking to me?""Hahahaha!" Qing Yuan laughed in amusement. "I am indeed the ghost ruler of this forest.""But if I am a ghost, then you are also a ghost. We are both g
"So, your name is Shen Ji? Then you mean you are from the Shen Family?" asked Qing Yuan who was curious."That's right. I am one of the daughters of Mr. Shen Ming and Mrs. Huo Lin. But, I am …."Shen Ji answered softly, then hid her face by lowering her head. "I am the saddest.""I was always bullied by my brother. I was even insulted by him at a banquet. I feel very embarrassed and hurt when I remember all that." Shen Ji continued his words sadly.Shen Ji continued. "So, I intend to just disappear from this world. Maybe that way, they won't hate me anymore.""Oh, so that's the problem?" Qing Yuan asked silently. "It doesn't seem bad if I help her get revenge. But another problem, she is the daughter of Shen Ming who is my father's enemy. What if father finds out and then kills her?"In his heart, Qing Yuan was really worried and at the same time felt sorry for this girl's fate. If left unchecked, perhaps Shen Ji would commit a d
"Someone who wants to change is not easy and there must be a price to pay to get what they want." Qing Yuan began to explain in the style of a teacher. "Everything in this world has its own rules and lawslike the law of cause and effect." Shen Ji nodded her head when she heard Qing Yuan speak. Her firm, authoritative voice is commensurate with his tall, slender figure. Although currently the teacher's appearance is quite messy. His hair and clothes were still wet, and there was even a lot of dirt stuck to several parts of his body. However, the charm and beauty of this young man has not diminished in the slightest. "Compared to Brother Yu Zhen, his attitude is very different," thought Shen Ji, who was half listening to Qing Yuan's explanation and half of it she couldn't remember. Qing Yuan looked up, looking at the wisps of clouds moving across the sky with slow movements. "Like when the sky changes from dark to brightly li
"Look at me! And, do you see that I have a face as ugly as a ghost like in those people's stories?" Qing Yuan arched his body slightly forward and deliberately brought his face closer to Shen Ji's eyes. "Does my face look really bad?""What does Shifu mean?" Shen Ji didn't understand. Being so close to the face of a handsome man really made her heart shake violently.Shen Ji not only became uneasy, but also started to break out in cold sweat and found it difficult to breathe. She also had difficulty swallowing her saliva which seemed to be drying up."Answer me! Does your shifu have such an ugly face that he has to cover it with a mask to hide his ugly face?" Qing Yuan brought his face closer until the tip of the young man's nose almost touched his student's nose.Shen Ji felt increasingly nervous about his new teacher's actions, but he had to answer honestly. "O--of course Shifu isn't bad. In fact, Shifu is handsome beyond reproach.""Yo
Qing Wei still knelt down feeling a little bad. She was worried that this stubborn young master would deliver the punishment he feared the most. However, the girl only heard Qing Yuan's calm voice. "Never mind, you get up, Ah WeiNow I assign you to take this student of mine. Prepare a place for her, and provide whatever she needs. Remember to always treat him well." Upon hearing Qing Yuan's order, Qing Wei immediately got up and clenched her fists. "Ready, Chief!" "Not knowing what the chairman meant by bringing this fat girl, I still have to carry out his orders," Qing Wei whispered to herself with a strange feeling. It was unusual for Qing Yuan to be as caring towards other women as he was now. especially by appointing someone to be his student. If not for a purpose, of course a Qing Yuan would never do something so unreasonable. When Qing Wei noticed Qing Yuan and Shen Ji's condition, she couldn't help but ask while pointing slightly. "Chief, why are both of your clothe
