In her previous life, Su Jin Xia was deceived and persecuted, dying miserably. Reborn, she not only seeks revenge and corrects injustices but also protects the one she loves.
However, when lo...
"Can I?" Su Jin was terrified, overwhelmed by self-blame and guilt.
Shen Qianxue's pleasant voice came: "You can do it. Everyone has the right to try to live. You are the victim. Even if you have to pay with your life, it shouldn't be you who has to."
This was the first time Su Jin had heard a different perspective.
Suddenly, she felt a surge of strength within her!
Yes, why is it her who deserves to die? Nie Qingyi is the one who deserves to die!
Nie Qingyi is not dead yet, so she should never have died before Nie Qingyi!
Su Jinxia survived.
During that time, Shen Qianxue took good care of her.
He listened silently as she poured out her grievances and pain, telling her many lessons that gave her a new understanding of life and rekindled her hope for the future...
Gradually, Su Jin began to resemble a human, and she learned a lot about Shen Qianxue.
Su Jinxia had never known that there was such a heroic and extraordinary person as him in this world, and she admired him from the bottom of her heart.
She experienced the happiest period of her life.
Then, Shen Qianxue left. He was very busy and didn't come to Liuli Mountain often. Su Jinxia could only see him occasionally.
That day, Su Jin mustered up her courage and asked Shen Qianxue to let her stay by his side.
Su Jin didn't ask for anything. She just hoped to do what she could to help Shen Qianxue, to repay his kindness, and then go out to see the world and experience more people and things.
Shen Qianxue rejected her.
He said that he was surrounded by danger, with people losing their lives every moment, and he didn't want to see Su Jinxia become that person.
Su Jin was very sad; ultimately, it was because she was too incompetent.
Shen Qianxue is surrounded by countless dazzling people, and Su Jinxia is no match for any of them and cannot help him in any way.
The servants responsible for cleaning all laughed at Su Jin for her wishful thinking.
Even the servants around Shen Qianxue who serve her tea and water are all shrewd and capable. Isn't she, a useless piece of trash, just causing trouble?
Why would the general agree to let her follow?
However, Shen Qianxue was different; he saw Su Jinxia's disappointment and longing.
Su Jinxia was very curious about the outside world and kept asking Shen Qianxue what was happening outside. She longed to see more.
So, Shen Qianxue encouraged Su Jin to go out and live for herself, and if she wanted to see the outside world, then she should go.
He also told her that the South was more stable, prosperous and bustling, and that she could travel there.
He also prepared travel expenses and luggage for her, and selected a maid who knew martial arts for her.
Although he still couldn't stay by Shen Qianxue's side, Su Jin was very grateful.
She wondered if one day she would grow up and become outstanding, and then she could stand beside Shen Qianxue.
With this thought in mind, Su Jin left Liuli Mountain.
However, she didn't go very far, not even leaving the area of Liuli Mountain, before Zhou Ji captured her.
Nie Qingyi sought refuge with Zhou Ji. Knowing that Zhou Ji suffered from a heart ailment, she revealed to him the secret that the blood of the Glass Master could cure all diseases and prolong life, thus gaining Zhou Ji's favor.
Zhou Ji, carrying Shen Qianxue on his back, had been keeping an eye on Su Jin for quite some time.
He finally got his chance, and without anyone noticing, he killed Su Jinxia's maid and took Su Jinxia away.
Su Jinxia once again endured her days of imprisonment, though this time she was not mistreated. Because Zhou Ji needed the blood of the Glass Master, he had to take good care of Su Jinxia.
But the psychological trauma Su Jin suffered was far more severe than the physical injury.
She failed; she failed before she even started!
She was weak and incompetent, while her opponent possessed overwhelming power; she could not escape this tragic fate...
Her heart ached with pain and she felt so much hatred!
In order to make the blood of the Lord of Glass purer, Nie Qingyi also developed an antidote for the Forget-Me-Not herb to detoxify Su Jin.
Su Jinxia finally obtained the power of the Gu Mother, but it was very weak. The Gu Mother had been injured in her body for too long, and her power had become very weak.
Su Jinxia's mental strength was also unable to utilize the Gu Mother's powerful abilities due to years of torment.
Nie Qingyi still chained her up.
She remained at the mercy of others.
While Su Jin was being bleeding and having her flesh cut off, Shen Qianxue was fighting outside, fighting all the way to the capital and helping Zhou Ji seize the throne.
Nie Qingyi knew that Su Jinxia was in love with Shen Qianxue, so she would often use Shen Qianxue to provoke Su Jinxia.
For example, how Shen Qianxue was loyal to Zhou Ji, how she was willing to be injured, and how she disagreed with Zhou Ji on political matters.
At first, Zhou Ji couldn't control Shen Qianxue, and Shen Qianxue was the one who made the decisions most of the time.
However, after Zhou Ji became emperor, he began to recruit powerful figures, promote various factions, and suppress Shen Qianxue.
This general, whose achievements overshadowed those of the emperor and who was extremely loyal, ultimately could not defeat the imperial power and gradually lost his influence.
Although Shen Qianxue noticed something amiss as Zhou Ji's ambitions were constantly being revealed, and even tracked down Su Jin.
However, Shen Qianxue only realized Zhou Ji's ruthlessness before her death.
His brother, whom he regarded as family, pierced his chest without mercy!
They even wiped out all the forces of Phoenix Pavilion and Liuli Society after Shen Qianxue's death!
Even with a cruel and inhumane monarch, the world continues to suffer!
This is the result of Shen Qianxue's lifelong dedication.
The biggest mistake Su Jinxia and Shen Qianxue made was misjudging people.
People are most easily swayed by emotions, blinded by so-called kindness and justice, and lose their rationality.
Even someone as intelligent as Shen Qianxue was deceived by Zhou Ji for two reasons: first, she had a deep relationship with Zhou Ji; second, Zhou Ji always did things under the guise of justice.
Su Jinxia was even more foolish, blinded by Nie Qingyi's brilliance and deceived by her sweet words, foolishly taking her words as gospel.
Therefore, after her rebirth, Su Jinxia no longer regards anyone as a guide in her life, not even Shen Qianxue; she only trusts herself!
Su Jin gritted her teeth inwardly.
How can she pull Shen Qianxue out of this mess? She's really desperate!
Su Jin considered assassinating Zhou Ji directly.
But, putting aside whether it will succeed, even if it does, what will happen to Shen Qianxue? How will she explain it?
She couldn't bypass Shen Qianxue and deal directly with Zhou Ji!
She really didn't want to go against Shen Qianxue unless absolutely necessary.
"What are you thinking about? You seem so focused!" Su Hu appeared beside Su Jinxia without her noticing.
Su Jin turned around, paused slightly, then sighed, clearly in a bad mood.
"Are you worried about Nie Qingyi?" Su Hu guessed. "Don't worry, I won't let her continue to get away with it! I'll send people to continue the investigation tomorrow."
"She's in Lin'nan City right now," Su Jin said softly. Her Gu Mother power had recovered, and she knew Nie Qingyi's exact location, but she had only been back for a day and hadn't had time to deal with her yet.
Upon hearing this, Su Hu's eyes lit up. "Tell me the exact location, and I'll send someone to bring her back immediately."
It's laughable that the disciples of the Liuli Society dared to run away!
Su Jinxia's gaze darkened, a flicker of shadow passing through her eyes. She gently shook her head. "No, let her go!"
"What!" Su Hu wondered if he was hallucinating.
