Chapter 1: Chapter 1 After being Killed by the Scum Husband

Diligently cultivating for two hundred years, Xie Jiuniang finally succeeded in her Core Formation but didn’t get the chance to spread the news. That very night, she tragically fell victim to her Dao companion, Lin Wangchen’s poisonous hand.

In the monts before Xie Jiuniang’s death, Lin Wangchen even employed so kind of forbidden technique to plunder all of her cultivation base and life force.

Lin Wangchen announced to the outside world that she died due to a failure in her breakthrough, killed by her inner demons. He then pretended to be overly grief-stricken, using it as an excuse to turn away visitors and enter closed-door cultivation.

Lin Wangchen’s reputation had always been good, with many admirers, yet he was faithful and dedicated to his Dao companion. No one thought to investigate the true cause of Xie Jiuniang’s death, including her own family, the Xie Family.

However, Xie Jiuniang was reborn!

When she woke up again, her vestnt robe was torn, and she lay alone in a small cave.

Her half-open eyes were very calm, without the towering hatred for being betrayed by a loved one. Instead, there was a kind of expected relief.

There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world, nor are there unrited fortunes.

Lin Wangchen saved her life again and again, and throughout the century, he continually provided her with vast resources for cultivation. In the past, she occasionally found this puzzling, but now she finally understood the truth.

In plain terms, she was like a pig raised by Lin Wangchen, fattened up for slaughter.

After all, isn’t that the fate of a dostic pig?

Yes, she shouldn’t hate…

Xie Jiuniang moved her fingers, slowly sat up, took a water bag out of her storage bag, and took a big gulp of spiritual spring water. The dryness in her throat finally eased.

She looked around the cave; it was barren.

Nearly two hundred years had passed, and she vaguely rembered what happened today.

It was when she was eleven years old that she first entered Yunmu Mountain and found a nearly extinct Cleansing Spiritual Grass—a grass that, once refined into an elixir, could remove a Spirit Root.

Spirit Roots are the foundation of cultivation for the human race. There are eight common types: tal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, ice, and thunder.

The fewer the Spirit Roots, the better the aptitude.

More than four Spirit Roots signifies lower aptitude; three is considered average; two is above average, and a single Spirit Root is optimal.

A Single Spirit Root, also known as the Heavenly Spiritual Root, is a top talent frequently scouted and cultivated by the Great Sects.

Xie Jiuniang had three Spirit Roots—fire, wood, and tal—giving her average aptitude. Without a great opportunity, Foundation Establishnt would be her limit.

But, with the Cleansing Spiritual Grass!

If she could beco Dual Spiritual Roots, then her future in the Sect would be bright.

What she never expected was that the opportunity she desperately acquired ultimately benefited her cousin, Xie Ying.

Because of it, Xie Ying beca a Fire Elental Heavenly Spiritual Root, her fa skyrocketed, she was taken in by a powerful figure ahead of ti, and she beca unrivaled in the lilight. With her rise, the Xie Family soared to the heavens.

The only one who resented this was her, the person whose opportunity had been stolen, weak, pitiable, and helpless.

“Young friend, do you feel better?”

Soone approached from outside the cave, donned in a Crane Cloud Robe designated for Direct Disciples of the Sect, making the person’s profile even more upright. His handso features, warm and gentle deanor, along with a faint smile, was like a refreshing spring breeze.

Lin Wangchen?!

Oh, it is his younger self…

Seeing the dazed look on the young girl’s face, Lin Wangchen thought she was scared and comforted her, “Young friend, do not fear; the lion and tiger are dead. Where does your family live? Let

take you ho first.”

Xie Jiuniang lowered her eyelids and remained silent.

What was the current situation…?

She had found the Cleansing Spiritual Grass when she was chased by a lion-tiger beast. Lin Wangchen, who just happened to be passing by, had saved her for the first ti and settled her in the cave while she was unconscious…

Today was also the first ti she had t him.

Xie Jiuniang shook her head, refusing his offer to escort her, and stood up to leave the cave.

Lin Wangchen watched the young girl’s receding back thoughtfully.

Xie Jiuniang didn’t care whether Lin Wangchen would be suspicious or not; at this mont, she only wanted to get as far away from him as possible, fearing she might not be able to resist drawing her sword against him.

Lin Wangchen had already reached Foundation Establishnt, not soone a re Qi Cultivation disciple could kill. If she dared show even a hint of killing intent, she would be the next one lying dead.

Lin Wangchen was never a kind-hearted soul.

She had just walked out of the periphery of Yunmu Mountain.

“Little sister Nine!”

“We’ve found Miss Nine!”

A round-faced girl rushed over anxiously, followed by several Xie Family guards.

The round-faced girl grabbed Xie Ying, checking her injuries left and right, and said with lingering fear, “Little sister Nine, you almost scared

to death, I thought you…”

“It’s my fault, I’ve made fourth sister worry.”

Xie Ying had so affection for her fourth sister; they were alike in their poor taste, both having fallen for the sa worthless man.

Xie Ying had gone missing on Yunmu Mountain, and her family had imdiately arranged for a search. After searching for most of the day with no luck, hope had faded, but Xie Ying erged on her own.

She was escorted back to the Xie Family ho by everyone.

Xie Ying asked her fourth sister to first take her to the family doctor for a check-up. After the check-up showed no serious injuries, she returned to her place.

Xie Fourth Sister silently activated the room’s isolation formation, preventing outsiders’ Divine Sense from probing, before asking, “Little sister Nine, tell

the truth, why did you go to Yunmu Mountain?”

“I…” Let

think for a mont.

Xie Ying carefully recalled what happened in her past life at this ti…

Xie Fourth Sister poked her younger sister’s forehead with her forefinger and said, “Trying to play dumb, huh? Don’t even think about it, spill it already. It’s only been a few days since I started my cultivation retreat, and you almost got yourself into trouble.”

“It seems it’s because…”

Xie Ying touched her slightly sore forehead, resigned to telling the truth, “The Qi Nourishing Pills were withheld again, so I thought about trying my luck on the outskirts of Yunmu Mountain to see if I could gather so low-tier Spirit Plants to sell.”

Xie Fourth Sister frowned and asked, “Why didn’t you tell

when they were withheld?”

“You were in a cultivation retreat.”

“Right, but how much can low-tier Spirit Plants fetch? You need a thousand Spiritual Pearls to exchange for a single Spirit Stone, and you couldn’t gather enough even with a whole basketful.”

The more Xie Fourth Sister talked, the more indignant she beca, and then said, “The main branch is taking advantage of people who won’t fight back. No, I will go with you to confront our uncle and demand an explanation. He’s the one distributing the family’s rations, if we don’t ask him, who else will we ask?”

“Forget it, it’s no use.”

“Are you really that naive? To suffer losses without saying a word?”

“What can I do? My parents aren’t at ho, and as a child, I can’t win the argunt.” Xie Ying had fought back before, but nobody took her seriously, “Aunt from the main branch said they were loaning my share to my elder sister; once my elder sister makes a na for herself, she will repay

with a Foundation Establishnt Pill.”

Xie Fourth Sister was shocked, “You believed her?”

“That’s not important.” Xie Ying narrowed her eyes.

What had Aunt from the main branch said at the ti? In one more year, when the Great Sects recruited new disciples, they would prioritize resources for the eldest sister.

As long as the eldest sister made a na for herself and found a good master, it would be a great boon for the family. By then, not to ntion tiny Qi Nourishing Pills, even Foundation Establishnt Pills would be within reach for her.

They were just empty promises!

The Aunt from the main branch was still stuck at the Qi Cultivation Peak.

Xie Ying was young but not foolish. Confronting her uncle while the grandfather was absent was fearless, but the uncle was shaless, even telling her not to throw a childish tantrum.

It wasn’t about fighting for stead buns but for so self-respect.

In a mont of heat, she had run off to Yunmu Mountain…

Recalling her youthful pride, Xie Ying felt a mix of emotions.

Naive, impulsive, without guile.

She couldn’t outplay her crafty uncle and aunt, nor could she outwit her eldest sister, who had thoroughly learned from her parents.

For the reborn Xie Ying, rounding up, it felt right—the main branch owed her a Foundation Establishnt Pill.
