The world of three thousand realms, I shall be the ruler!
—Yun Zheng
The Yunzhang Continent, like the Forest of Flames.
"Ah—"
In the pitch-black night, suddenly a sharp and piercing female voice broke the silence, waking the spiritual beasts in the forest, and hundreds of birds took flight in a flurry.
"Yun Zheng, if you want to blame someone, blame your bad luck!"
"Someone, throw her off the cliff and let her experience the taste of helpless falling!"
In the dim light, a woman in white could be vaguely seen holding a thorny whip, with drops of blood sliding down along the whip's pattern, falling into the soil.
Behind the woman in white stood more than ten dark guards, making her seem like a celestial being amidst the stars.
The earlier scream came from the girl who was struggling on the ground. The girl was clad in bloody clothes, her face stained with blood and dirt.
The blood-soaked clothes were torn to shreds by the thorny whip, with every inch of her exposed skin mangled and grotesque.
At this moment, two dark guards followed the orders and kicked her off the cliff—
"Su…" The girl's unfinished words were drowned out by the fierce wind.
Seeing this, the woman in white couldn't hide the vicious smile on her face; the useless Yun Zheng had finally died right before her eyes!
With this annoying wretch gone, she felt much relieved.
"Hahaha…"
The woman's mad laughter lingered at the edge of the cliff for a long time.
The next day—
Yun Zheng struggled to open her tired eyelids. A faint light fell into her eyes, and she barely managed to see the scene before her.
This seemed to be a stream at the bottom of the cliff, and at this moment, her lower body was submerged in water while her upper body lay on the bank.
No wonder she faintly heard the sound of 'drip drip' when she was unconscious!
Before she could ponder further, a sharp pain shot through her head, causing her to moan softly. Suddenly, countless fragmented images flashed through her mind.
Yunzhang Continent, Great Chu Kingdom, the useless legitimate daughter of the Yun royal family, Yun Zheng, who had been feeling gloomy after being jilted by her fiancé a few days ago. Her close friend Su Rong had suggested taking the original host out to this desolate forest to "ease her mind"...
This meeting turned out to be a deadly trap!
Ambushed from behind, cruelly tortured, mocked with vile words, kicked off the cliff!
These events felt like deep-seated blood feuds.
In this world, the strong were revered, and everyone on the continent could cultivate spiritual power, but the original host was relatively "unique" as a useless person who could not cultivate.
Yet the original host possessed a beauty that could topple nations, said to resemble her missing mother by seven parts.
The Yun royal family was a unique royal house in the Great Chu Kingdom, flourishing over a decade ago, now fallen into a state of decay.
If it weren't for the old Prince Yun's desperate support, the Yun royal family would likely have no place in the Great Chu Kingdom, subject to being trampled upon.
Currently, among the descendants of the Yun royal family, only the original host and her aunt Yun Miao remained.
Yun Miao had been poisoned and unconscious for seven years; her engagement had also been annulled!
With both the aunt and niece having their engagements broken off, the Yun royal family's face was utterly lost.
"Su Rong!"
Yun Zheng narrowed her eyes slightly, the wounds on her body stinging painfully, making her feel as if she had experienced the brutal tortures of the previous night. Su Rong's smug and vicious expression was etched in her mind, impossible to erase.
The original host's grief and blood-soaked hatred resonated deeply with her!
"Since I've taken over your body, I will take good care of your family and—settle the score with those who wronged you!"
Just as she was preparing to stand up, a faint 'drip' sound came from behind her, making her turn around cautiously.
In the distance, a shadowy figure was faintly visible. Before she could see clearly, it was enveloped in a dense purple starlight.
"The Purple Micro Fortune Destiny Plate!" Yun Zheng was somewhat surprised.
This was her first time seeing the Purple Micro Fortune Destiny Plate described in ancient texts.
In her past life, she possessed a pair of mystical eyes that could see through others' destiny plates; she didn't expect to have the same ability in this life where she was also named Yun Zheng.
However, according to the original host's memories, her mystical eyes had not yet awakened.
Yun Zheng was still quite curious about this and wanted to get closer to study just how powerful the person with this destiny plate was. She struggled to stand up; the water was knee-deep, and she walked over step by step, determined yet slow.
The person with the unprecedented Purple Micro Fortune Destiny Plate was someone top-notch in every field, deeply favored by the way of heaven.
This really piqued her curiosity.
Before long, she reached within ten meters of the radiant purple light, the intense purple glow almost blinding her.
Suddenly, a powerful force pulled her in.
A cold hand clutched her wrist, the grip so strong it nearly crushed her bones.
"Who are you?" A deep voice wrapped in an eerie chill rang out, sending chills down her spine.
Yun Zheng:!
The dense purple light enveloped him, making it impossible for her to see his appearance, but just from his voice, she could imagine the visage of a handsome man.
In her past life, she could close her mystical eyes at will, but now, no matter how much she blinked, it was futile!
Feeling the increasing malice from the man, she realized she had been careless; right now, she could only—pretend!
She lifted her head as if she were blind, her voice tinged with a hint of joy: "Second Egg Husband, is that you?"
"Is it night now? Why can't I see you?"
"Second Egg, you don't know, those rogue bandits are simply inhumane! They bullied me, a weak girl without any spiritual power, and even pushed me off a cliff!"
Yun Zheng said a lot in one breath, then began to sob, her shoulders heaving up and down.
However, she couldn't squeeze out any tears, so she had to lower her head and sniffle pitifully.
When the man heard "Second Egg," the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, and after hearing her next words, he was left speechless.
If it weren't for the fact that this girl had no spiritual power and was covered in wounds, he would have likely twisted her head off the moment he opened his eyes.
"Do you really not see?" The dangerous aura in his words suddenly leaked out.
Hearing this, Yun Zheng's dirty little face instantly paled, her eyes staring blankly. She suddenly tried to struggle free from the grip of Rong Shuo.
"You… you're not Second Egg! Who are you?"
After Yun Zheng finished speaking, her eyes suddenly stung, the purple light dissipated, and she vaguely saw a shadow.
Gradually, she could see clearly…
The man had long black hair draped over his shoulders, a cool demeanor, and a tall posture, like an orchid jade tree, radiant and noble, with a faintly reddish thin lip slightly pursed, and a pair of deep-set eyes that were mysterious and dangerously striking.
Cold and abstinent, exuding an irresistible allure.
He didn't reveal a hint of spring light, yet everything around him dimmed.
Yun Zheng's phoenix eyes flashed with a hint of astonishment, which was caught by the man.
Rong Shuo was slightly angered; how dare she toy with him? He grasped Yun Zheng's neck tightly, applying force.
Yun Zheng: … The mystical eyes didn't awaken too early or too late, but right when he was at his least vigilant—wasn't that just asking for trouble?
Yun Zheng struggled desperately, but with her powerless body, how could she break free?
