Jiang Yuetong only realized after her rebirth that she was in a book world.
Recalling her fate as a cannon fodder villainess in her previous life, she felt unwilling to accept it.
She, ...
She regretted it terribly at the time.
She blamed herself for not taking good care of it, because no one but her could take away the things she kept in the spatial ring.
Unless one's spiritual power surpasses hers and one possesses an ancient secret technique, it would be impossible to enter the space and take its contents before the original owner has broken the bond with it.
The reason she took Song Yunqian's spatial ring earlier was because she happened to know how to use this secret technique.
Jiang Yuetong couldn't understand why the white jade bracelet was on Lü Jingliang.
Could it really be as he just said, that I wronged him ten years ago?
That's absurd.
Thinking back to how Lu Jingliang used to call her "sister" all the time, Jiang Yuetong's expression became inexplicably unnatural.
"Alright, let's keep it with us for now."
Two days later.
Jiang Yuetong, who was handling some business, received messages from Moyin Prefecture and Cangyun Prefecture, asking her to go to the "Jingmo Tower" located in the center of the three prefectures for a meeting.
Jingmo Tower is Master's place.
During his seclusion, all the major affairs of the three states in the Eastern Region were discussed and handled by the three of them.
Because none of the three would submit to the others, and each felt that going to someone else's territory would make them feel inferior, they would discuss matters at Jingmo Tower.
The two of them were in a hurry to send her over because in five days, they would be going to the Holy Sword Sect's secret realm, which opened only once every hundred years.
Because of their strained relationship with the Three Continents, the Holy Sword Sect only granted them one hundred slots a thousand years ago.
The former rulers of the three states even fought each other to get more spots, since more people meant more opportunities.
Anything can happen in a secret realm. Who knows, you might just find some amazing treasures there and rise to great heights.
In their previous lives, Huanhaizhou and Moyinzhou each received thirty-five slots.
After the secret realm ended, although the other two states suffered heavy casualties, none of the people from her Huanhai State survived.
Jiang Yuetong remained suspicious, believing that people from the other two states must have stabbed her in the back while she was in the secret realm.
It would be a lie to say I'm not heartbroken.
After all, those sent in were all elites. Huanhai Prefecture had spent countless resources and trained them for many years to get them to this level.
He hadn't even served her before he was gone.
"I only need thirty spots. Have Rujing reply to the letter," Jiang Yuetong said coldly.
This time, she decided not to fight anymore.
"Yes." The guard appeared and then disappeared again.
The main hall was completely silent.
Jiang Yuetong had just finished dealing with her business when her dark eyes narrowed slightly, as if she had thought of something.
It seems that the male and female protagonists in their past lives developed their relationship in this secret realm.
Although Jiang Yuetong had already read the novel, even with her excellent memory, it was impossible for her to remember everything clearly.
She only remembered certain things about the female lead.
night.
After having dinner, Jiang Yuetong enjoyed a relaxing soak in the hot springs alone in the West Palace.
Not long after I closed my eyes to relax, a figure in blue appeared not far behind me, outside the intricately carved screen.
Why should we give up our spots?
"My affairs are none of your concern." Jiang Yuetong knew who the newcomer was, but she did not open her eyes.
This guy always appears when she's resting, even when she's soaking in a hot spring.
Jiang Yuetong was furious with him, but there was nothing she could do. The two had been fighting for decades and were still evenly matched.
The man, whose back was to her, remained silent for a moment.
He said, "The secret realm is fraught with danger, and having one more person means one more layer of protection."
"Just mind your own business in Demon Silver State, and get out!" Jiang Yuetong's voice was slightly cold.
Yi Ci pursed her thin lips, walked to the table next to her, and took out a blue porcelain bottle and placed it on it.
"This is a newly made elixir, good morning..."
“The pharmacists of my Huanhai Prefecture are no worse than yours.” Jiang Yuetong interrupted him rudely and said coldly, “Take it away.”
