Chapter 1 Camellias by the River of the Underworld
As usual, the author would like to say a few words:
1. There's a luxurious diamond cabinet here. You can save this in your mind before reading. If you do, please don't scold me. This is a fictional novel, not a historical document. Don't take it too seriously. Mwah!
2. I wrote this so I can enjoy it first. The cheat codes are so powerful they're practically flying high. If there are any logical flaws, it's because I love you guys so much that I've lost my mind.
3. **Warning:** The female protagonist comes from the underworld, so it's normal for her to have less of a human moral compass. Revenge is the main plot in the early stages, and there will be a lot of description of the revenge process, such as how she tortures people. If you prefer heartwarming slice-of-life stories or quick revenge narratives summarized in one sentence, you can choose another book. There's no need to specifically criticize me before leaving, thank you.
Another word of caution: This story includes scenes where the female lead pays money for a stable life. If you think she can't give up any benefits, or enjoy watching her get caught up in the darker aspects of human nature, you might want to read something else. The female lead has more money than she could ever spend in a hundred lifetimes, so I think it's perfectly appropriate for her to give up part of her prize money to improve her reputation and silence critics. This isn't just a female-oriented story; male-oriented stories also emphasize assessing situations and weighing pros and cons. Besides, the female lead is looking for a job to ensure a stable life, not just for money. Don't get things backwards!
4. The author is an emotionless machine and can't write sweet romances, so there are no couples, no infatuation, and in the female lead's eyes, all beings are equal, just living skeletons.
5. The author's knowledge of the era comes entirely from period novels, and all common sense comes from Doubao. If there are any errors, they are their fault!
6. Coming here is the beginning of getting rich quick, getting rich quick!
…………………………
Yun Wangshu looked at her wilted petals with a sense of sullenness, feeling that she must be the first soul to die from stupidity.
She had been drifting on the riverbank for an unknown amount of time, and as her body became increasingly transparent, she decided to try and save herself. So she took a seed from her spatial storage and threw it down, watering it with her spiritual energy.
Although she has lost her memory after drifting for so long, the space is bound to her soul, and as long as her soul hasn't dissipated, she can still use it.
The seed lived up to her expectations and bloomed into a beautiful camellia. She happily climbed inside, but the flower withered in no time.
It happened much faster than she died on her own!
What a blunder!
Yun Wangshu was heartbroken and began to think of ways to climb out of the flower.
At this moment, one of the souls that had been drifting on the River of the Underworld for years finally slipped through the net and flew towards her, swaying and staggering.
Yun Wangshu watched from afar, somewhat admiring its efforts, but was it meaningful?
Even if it doesn't fall into the river and become its nutrients, it will slowly drift away like her, ultimately ending up in the same place.
Moreover, this soul is ashen and pitiful, and it can't even calm down before it dies. Does it want to turn the tables?
Yun Wangshu ignored it; she herself hadn't even crawled out of the flower yet.
The soul seemed unaware of her predicament. After circling around her once, it leisurely slipped into the flowers as well.
Yun Wangshu was speechless: "Get out of here!"
The soul was also a girl, and her voice sounded young: "Senior, I want to make a deal with you. I'll give you a chance to be reborn, and you help me take revenge."
Yun Wangshu paused for a moment, then started kicking his soul away: "I don't want to do it, you can leave!"
Who are you kidding? If she had a chance to be reborn, wouldn't she take it herself?
It's because she's almost gone; before, she could have easily crushed this little soul.
well!
The little girl seemed very frustrated: "I can't do it, senior, I'll show you."
Then, Yun Wangshu saw the little girl's entire life through memory sharing.
The first half was filled with happiness and joy, the second half with misery and desolation, and in the end, the protagonist died without a complete corpse.
Moreover, she did indeed get a chance to be reborn, which was exchanged for by her family elders through good deeds!
The young girl said, "Senior, you see, I'm a useless piece of trash. Even if I were to do it all over again, I'd still be useless. I can't grow any brains or martial arts skills. So I want to make a deal with you. I'll give you the chance to be reborn, and you'll help me take revenge!"
"Senior, don't you want to live?"
Grandpa said that this person is an extraordinary and powerful figure who will definitely be able to help her fulfill her wish!
She doesn't need to be reborn; she just wants the bad guys who harmed her to die a miserable death, just like her.
The little girl's words touched Yun Wangshu's heart. Although she couldn't remember anything, she wanted to live.
After thinking it over, she figured she was going to die anyway, so there was nothing to lose. She took the ball of light from the little girl and solemnly promised, "Okay, I will make sure they die a more miserable death than you."
The soul swayed excitedly twice, clearly very happy: "Thank you, senior. My name is Yun Shu. I have no other requests besides revenge. You can live as you wish."
Yun Wangshu shook the petals that were about to fall: "Okay."
…………
Yun Wangshu: Why aren't you leaving yet?
Soul: "...Senior, which way do I go?"
Yun Wangshu: …………
She didn't know either; she hadn't even climbed out yet!
Soul: "Why don't you try kicking me again?"
Yun Wangshu: …………
She crushed the ball of light, turning it into fragments that entered a certain spot in the void, along with the camellia on the ground, which also disappeared.
Her soul was left to drift aimlessly in place; though it was just a dusty, gray blob, one could sense her bewilderment.
