Li Muqing's head was ringing from the beating. Her lip was cut and bleeding. Her eyes were bloodshot. She gritted her teeth and said, "You killed my mother and made Liangzi and me live a life worse than death. Li Xiyue, I wish I could eat your flesh and drink your blood. I'm willing to do anything to get revenge!"

God knows how much hardship and injustice she and her brother suffered during those months in the desert.

To survive, she even sold her body. She was only seventeen years old when she was defiled by those ugly and disgusting men.

Every time she was forced to submit to those old men, she hated Li Xiyue to the core and wished she could skin her alive!

If Li Xiyue hadn't signed her and her brother up to go to the desert, she wouldn't have suffered all that.

So when that person approached her and asked her to become an enemy agent, she agreed without hesitation. As long as she could get revenge, she didn't care if it was treason!

Enraged, Li Xiyue slapped her again, knocking Li Muqing to the ground. Grabbing Li Muqing's collar, she demanded, "Why don't you talk about what you did? Your mother, that vicious woman, seduced Li Bowen, cruelly killed my mother, that shameless slut who moved into my mother's house and took over her job. You and Li Mingliang even tried to kill me and take everything from me. Aren't you going to mention a single word about any of this?"

Wang Huilan deserved to be sentenced to death for murder, and it was only because she didn't immediately kill Li Muqing and Li Mingliang who beat the original owner to death that she was merciful.

It was clearly this family of three who committed the wrong first, yet they showed no remorse whatsoever. Such people do not deserve to live in this world!

"Li Muqing, I originally planned to have you plant trees in the desert to make a contribution to the country and the people, as a way for you to atone for your sins. I never expected that you would not repent and would actually become a traitor. Then I can no longer let you live!"

"What do you want to do? Li Xiyue, do you dare to kill me?" Li Muqing stared at the sharp dagger in her hand, her eyelids twitching. "Murder is illegal. If you kill me, you won't live either."

"Are you even human? Would a human betray their country and fellow countrymen? You're worse than an animal!" Li Xiyue grabbed her chin. "Look where you are! This is the deep mountains, teeming with wild beasts. Besides, you escaped on your own, accidentally wandered into the mountains, and got eaten by wild animals. You can't blame anyone else!"

Li Muqing's heart sank lower and lower as fear surged uncontrollably, but she still stubbornly said, "You wouldn't dare, Li Xiyue, you wouldn't dare to kill anyone!"

She didn't believe Li Xiyue would dare to kill her; she thought Li Xiyue was just bluffing.

“I certainly wouldn’t dare kill anyone, but I would dare kill a traitorous beast!” Li Xiyue held a knife to her neck. “Tell me, who sent you?”

The dagger was sharp and cut through her skin instantly. A sharp pain shot through her, and Li Muqing trembled with fear. At that moment, she believed that Li Xiyue would kill her. She said in a panic, "I don't know who it was. It was a person in charge of the forest area surnamed Ma who contacted me privately."

"What did he ask you to do here?" Li Xiyue asked again.

"He wants me to find out if you know the Thirteen Ghost Needles technique, and also to find out where your grandfather is." Li Muqing said in a trembling voice, "He said that as long as I complete the mission, he will give me a large sum of money so that I can go back to the city and live a good life."

Li Xiyue had already guessed this, and with a squeeze of her hand, she asked, "Anything else?"

"That's all I know." Feeling as if her neck was about to be cut off, Li Muqing pleaded in terror, "Sister, please spare me. For the sake of our sisterhood, give me a chance to make amends."

"You'll change it again?" Li Xiyue scoffed.

She would rather believe in ghosts than believe that Li Muqing, that vicious woman, would ever change her ways.

Li Muqing said hurriedly, "I will, I will definitely be a good person from now on!"

"You don't deserve to be human anymore." Li Xiyue's eyes turned cold. "In your next life, remember to be a good person and don't do evil again!"

Li Muqing was about to plead for mercy again when she saw Li Xiyue raise her hand with a dagger and swing it towards her neck. A sharp pain shot through her, and she stared wide-eyed, unable to make a sound from the pain.

I felt blood gurgling from my neck and tried to raise my hand to cover it, but I couldn't move at all.

Overwhelmed by the fear of death, she trembled uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face. "Sister..."

"Don't call me sister, you don't deserve it!" Li Xiyue removed the silver needles from her body and retorted, "My mother only gave birth to me, I have no brothers or sisters!"

As for Li Bowen, he is equally unfit to be her father.

Li Muqing fell to the ground, feeling the blood flowing rapidly from her body. She raised her hand and found that she could move it. She quickly covered her neck, but the blood could not be stopped and flowed from between her fingers. Soon, a pool of blood formed on the ground.

Help! She doesn't want to die. She's not even eighteen yet. She wants to go back to the city and live a good life. How can she die?

Someone please save her.

"Go in peace. I'll send your brother, Li Mingliang, to the underworld to reunite with you." Li Xiyue looked down at the convulsing person on the ground. "You three should all go to hell together!"

Wang Huilan and her two children killed the original owner of the body and her daughter, and she will not let any of them go.

Liangzi, Li Xiyue wants to harm Liangzi? !

Li Muqing was anxious and scared. She wanted to speak but could no longer make a sound. She slowly lost her strength and collapsed to the ground, watching helplessly as she bled to death.

The smell of blood attracted a pack of wolves, so Li Xiyue didn't linger and left into the space.

Before Li Muqing breathed her last, she saw countless vicious wolves surrounding her. The wolves all had long fangs and were drooling greedily.

At that moment, she finally regretted it. She shouldn't have agreed to become an enemy agent, and she shouldn't have betrayed her country and her compatriots.

But it was too late for regrets; today's bitter consequences are all the result of the evil deeds she sowed in the past.

It's her karma!

Back at the clinic, Li Xiyue went out of the room as if nothing had happened and calmly dried the herbs in the yard.

The educated youth settlement is bustling with activity.

Huang Xinrui and Xu Shanshan burned all the bedding, mats, and pillows that Li Muqing had used. They also washed their own bedding and pillows several times and wiped the bed repeatedly. They still felt it was unlucky, so they burned some mugwort leaves to ward off the bad luck.

Zhou Yutong was furious when she learned about Li Muqing's situation.

That idiot Li Muqing actually targeted a married man! How could she be so stupid? What a waste of all her efforts!

Now that Li Muqing has lost her weapon and her supernatural abilities have stagnated, wouldn't it be even more difficult for her to deal with Li Xiyue?

Damn it, nothing seems to be going right?
