The weather was cold as winter was approaching, thus, Shen Jin was bound to have a cold as she was wearing a thin skirt, however, as a previous divine rank cultivator, it was a piece of cake to adjust her body temperature.
Shen Jin just parted with the group of hooligans after making sure they won't be harassing other women as she just castrated each of them. And currently, she was travelling through the most mysterious and dark forest that nobody dared to step into.
"Boss, is she going to the cursed forest?", one of the men said shuddering.
"Let her go, we were supposed to throw her there anyway", said the boss while gritting his teeth hatefully when he remembered how she dared to beat them earlier.
This forest was considered since the past eras, an execution place for the most dangerous criminals. And the folks who lived in the villages surrounding it even wrote a few popular songs, and nicknamed this place: 'the cursed forest'.
The cursed forest is a prohibited place as every person who dared to step into disappeared mysteriously leaving only horrid cries and pleas following them.
However, Shen Jin felt that this place was familiar, in fact, it was similar to the forest she owned in her previous reincarnation, and as she walked further inside, her feelings of familiarity toward the forest became firmer.
"No way", she muttered when she chanced upon a stone tablet she had carved in her past life.
In her past life as a divine cultivator, she had owned a mountain surrounded by a lush forest, she called it Mount Shan, as she hoped that Li Shan would find his way to her, she didn't expect to meet it again in this lifetime. And remembering the modern attire of the hooligans, she concluded that this world was her previous world many years later.
On the stone tablet was a mushy and lovey-dovey poem she had wrote when she was drunk, how embarrassing it was if someone read it, she didn't expect this at all.
Feeling her cheeks turn red of embarrassment, she quickly walked away, she remembered that she had set traps everywhere in the forest to prevent intruders to barge into her private property, not that anyone dared considering her notoriety as someone who shouldn't be offended, so it should be alright, right?
Sighing, she decided that walking all the way to the mountain would be too tiring, however, with her low Qi reserve right now, she is unable to use her teleportation cultivation technique and all of her belonging such as travelling tools are currently stored in her spacial jade ring, which was on her body when she died.
"Why is life so difficult? Can't I take some vacation after all the hard work I did?"
Pouting slightly, she suddenly remembered the portal that was used by her disciples, her eyes lit up as she tried to remember the incantation.
What was it again? Ah! Right!!
'I'm an idiot, stupid, ugly and weak disciple of the almighty, stunning and smart divine master Shen!!'
it was awkward. Why did she use this incantation to tease her disciples back then, and they even had to say it three times? Isn't akin to shooting one self's foot with a gun??
She reaped what she sowed it seems.
'Should I just walk?', Shen Jin thought annoyed.
Her gaze trailed to the peek of Mount Shan before deciding to bite the bullet and calling three time that embarrassing sentence.
As the last word left her mouth, Shen Jin disappeared in a flash before reappearing in front of a golden door embedded with more that hundred diamonds, well, she had so much money that she didn't know what to do with it, and after so many years of living simple lives, she decided to be for once lavish in her previous life.
Extending her hands toward the massive door, she used her Qi to open it, and as the mountain is linked to her soul, the door didn't fuss and opened.
Although the manor on Mount Shan wasn't her only property, it was the most lavish one. each fabric, antique, or canvas was worth a high price. Even the grass on her garden was considered a rare medicinal plant.
Walking toward her master bedroom, Shen Jin decided that before doing anything she would take a nap.
Lying on the bed leisurely, Shen Jin suddenly felt a headache and the memories of the body she reincarnated in flowed in her mind.
In a few minutes, she knew why the host 'Su Jin' died, just like her, she was betrayed by her evil sister and fiancé, they drugged her and threw her in a hotel room with her eyes covered by a black cloth. After that, she got raped by an unknown man and sold to hooligans for them to play with, they were even tasked by that man to kill her.
So, that's how it is?
Shen Jin's face grew colder as she took her pulse, her virginity was indeed lost, to a man she didn't even know, it wasn't Li Shan, the man she loved, but a wild and disgusting man, which girl could bear it?
Although she still had a tiny hope before, it was now ruthlessly crushed, even the heavens were telling her that meeting Li Shan again was just her wishful thinking.
Sitting up slowly from the bed, Shen Jin decided that from now on, she would take revenge on behalf of Su Jin, and take care of the host's sincere relatives as if they were her own.
From now on, she was Su Jin.
