Fen Yue had no idea he would regret taking this oath so quickly, but it also showed how much Fen Yue trusted Chao Mei.
"Sister Yue, I want you to hide the Poison Pearl," said Chao Mei delivering an exotic deep green pearl. Fen Yue looked amazed at this pearl, she didn't want to take it, but Chao Mei put the pearl inside her hand.
"What do you intend to do?" asked Fen Yue surprise, but she felt she knew what Chao Mei wanted to do.
Fen Yue who was so self-centered in fighting for Tao Kang's love or the favor of resources, that she didn't realize how Chao Mei was increasingly sad and increasingly desperate.
Chao Mei's soul had finally broken.
Chao Mei had a lot of nightmares at night.
Chao Mei didn't think he was more human, but a monster in human form.
Chao Mei was very tired of this life full of pain and blood.
Fen Yue was the only one who knew she had pains in her body because of the poison, that she needed strong medicine to withstand the pain. Of course, there was the poisonous pearl that helped Chao Mei filter the poisons and lowered the burden, but the poisons that had been placed inside it before the appearance of the poison pearl still conflicted with her own poisonous Qi.

So, Fen Yue worried when Chao Mei handed her the poison pearl, which meant Chao Mei would have to suffer even more pain.
"Sister Yue, you promised. Please don't let Tao Kang retrieve the poisonous pearl until it's all over," Chao Mei said with a gentle smile, but Fen Yue felt like crying.
"Big sister Mei! You can't do that!" said Fen Yue grabbing Chao Mei's two skinny arms. Only now had she realized that Chao Mei was as thin as a thin branch of a tree!
Fen Yue didn't need to be a genius to know what Chao Mei intended, so she became desperate. Weren't they friends, almost sisters? Why was she leaving her behind? Wasn't living better than dying? Fen Yue didn't understand Chao Mei's motive!
"Sister Yue, the moments we had together were the best," Chao Mei said with such a pure smile, Fen Yue felt her heartbreak.
Fen Yue felt despair at that moment, those were parting words!
She wanted to argue more with Chao Mei to change her mind, but soon she felt weak and began to lose consciousness. She had not realized that Chao Mei had used an odorless poison to make her lose consciousness.
"Remember our promise... Sister Yue... Who knows if things were different... Live a good life sister Yue" the voice of Chao Mei was increasingly distant and weaker until Fen Yue lost all consciousness.
When Fen Yue woke up the next day the main fighters who would go with Tao Kang to investigate the situation, they had long since left, Chao Mei had already left. Tao Kang left hours later when he received the signal from the investigation team.
Fen Yue wanted to tell Tao Kang about the poisonous pearl and Chao Mei, but she had taken a soul oath. That oath was deadly and she might even have her soul dispelled!
Of course, Fen Yue was just a human. She was selfish and loved her life, so although she was reluctant, she kept her promise to Chao Mei.
A few days later Chao Mei died.
Fen Yue remembered that her body became like a pure jade and she looked like the most beautiful statue in the world, Chao Mei even had a smile on her face!
Fen Yue can't cry in front of people, because Chao Mei and her friendship was a secret to people. Only Tao Kang knew about it, but he was busy thinking of revenge for Chao Mei's death, so Fen Yue can only cry hidden and alone.
That year the Poison Sect ceased to exist.
Chao Mei was only the first among Tao Kang's loyal followers who died, either because of his style as a hero of justice or because of Tao Kang's quest for revenge.
Fen Yue and the other harem women were losing their friends one by one, but Tao Kang was unstoppable on his way full of corpses. At some point, Tao Kang lost his humanity and he was worse than demons because they didn't even have time to cry over the death of their friends before they died.
The minds of Fen Yue and the other women were getting increasingly disturbed, but Tao Kang did not realize it. He also felt sad for the death of his companions and friends, but he thought they died for the greater good, they died full of honor since they died to achieve justice.
Fuck justice!
Give me back my important people!
Don't be reckless anymore!
Look at us, are we still your family?
We don't want revenge, we want everyone to live well!
That's what went through Fen Yue's mind when she had to bury or cremate her friends and fellow travelers, even some harem women dying on the way.
Fen Yue didn't know anymore because she was following Tao Kang, she had long been moving on. Tao Kang had so many women, that even though Fen Yue didn't want him temporarily, he had other women to serve him.
Of course, much of the time Tao Kang was cultivation madly, spending months without even talking to anyone, let alone having sex.
Fen Yue was the same, she was training to be the best alchemist, she drowned in training to forget the pain of her broken heart. However, every time she trained a new recipe, she remembered Chao Mei. Every time she trained the art of daggers, she remembered Hai Cong-Min. Every time she read poems and short stories, she remembered the young and intelligent yang chow.
All these precious friends were dead.
Some didn't even have a body to bury or cremated!
Fen Yue was becoming increasingly with a darkened soul as she devoted herself to having more power.
She wanted power to protect her loved ones, she wanted more power to hit Tao Kang until this idiot returned to being the good person he was in the beginning!
Also, she had to worry about her life in the harem because there were still schemes to take her life!
Years later she received the message that her family had been wiped out and that her younger sister had been sold to a brothel.
Fen Yue had become Master of Alchemy that year.
Laughable!
Everything had become so risible now!
"I should never have listened to that old man when he told me that I would have a fateful encounter with the son of fate! I should have thrown that rock away or gone without looking back!" thought Fen Yue with much hatred against her and Tao Kang. She held the little red rock tightly, she wanted to throw it away, but she always lost the final momentum to throw it in the trash.
Like there's some kind of power that would stop her from getting rid of that red stone!
