Beiling, Luocheng, Deep Valley.
The night was deep, two people were under an ancient tree, conducting a peculiar transaction.
"Here's a thousand taels of silver. The woman's yours now, have fun with her."
"All right, thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."
A short and ugly-looking man took the silver note, shouldered a sack, and headed towards the valley.
In a short while, the man stopped at the mouth of the valley and untied the sack.
"She's really beautiful. I've hit the jackpot today."
The man looked at the woman on the ground. She was very young, with a fair, delicate skin and fine features.
Even unconscious, she was beautiful enough to drive any man mad.
Swallowing a bit, the man didn't hesitate and made a move to undress her.
A cold wind blew past. Even though it was the first month of the year, the winter wind was still biting.
The man shivered from the cold.
He looked around and then picked up the woman, stepping into the moonlight and walking into the valley.
Not long after the man entered the valley, he saw a bamboo house. He excitedly rushed in, walking to the bed inside.
"This is it. Beautiful woman, you'll be mine soon!"
The man threw the woman onto the bed, rubbed his hands together, and pounced.
Unexpectedly, with a sudden 'bang', some hidden mechanism was triggered.
Both the man and the woman fell together.
They found themselves in a secret room, superbly adorned, teeming with luxury.
The floor was created with finely cut white jade, with a large bath in the center, which housed a bed also made of jade.
On the jade bed, a man sat meditating with his eyes closed.
Dressed in a brocade robe, with a jade belt around his waist, he was extraordinarily handsome. His phoenix eyes were long and narrow, and his aura gave off a chilling effect. He sat there as if he was a king, ruling over the world.
The man didn't move, as immovable as a meditating monk.
The man who fell with the woman didn't notice the person in the pool.
He tumbled near the edge of the pool and slowly came back to his senses.
After he regained consciousness, he looked at the woman lying next to him and once again pounced on her.
While ripping the woman's clothes off, he shouted impatiently, "My beauty, you'll be mine momentarily!"
With a 'rip', the woman's outer garment was torn off.
A splitting headache suddenly coursed through her. Yun Qianxi felt extremely uncomfortable, and to make it worse, something was pressing against her, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Immediately afterwards, a hand started to grope her.
Damn, what dog dares to rub against her?
Cloud Qiuxi was quite annoyed, she raised her hand to slap without even opening her eyes.
With a "Pah" sound, the slap was unusually loud.
"How dare you hit me, you little bitch! I'll teach you a lesson later!"
The sudden voice in her ears caused Cloud Qiuxi to wake up.
She opened her eyes quickly, and before she could react, she saw a coarse-looking man shouting at her.
"Get lost!"
Cloud Qiuxi's face turned cold, a touch of severity flashed in her eyes, she bent her right leg and kicked up.
"Ouch!"
The ugly man, hit in the vital part, instantly rolled into the pool.
With a "Peng" sound, numerous water splashes rose.
Cloud Qiuxi was by the pool side, retching, glaring at the man who fell into the pool, angrily said: "Damn it, why did Guan Xiao, that bastard, find such an ugly man to disgust me on purpose!"
She was almost nauseated to death by the man's appearance.
The man had already crawled up, and rushed at her again, cursing: "You were sold to me, you are my woman, if you don't behave, I will sell you to the brothel!"
Cloud Qiuxi lifted her eyes, and kicked again without any politeness.
With a loud splash, the man was once again kicked into the pool.
"Scum, you dare kick me, seeking your own death? I swear, I will kill you!"
Struggling and cursing in the pool, the man was livid.
Yun Qianxi raised her brows, a glint of ruthlessness flashing in her eyes.
Casting a glance upon her current state, her outer clothes were torn apart, her undergarment hanging loosely on her, barely covering anything. She was thoroughly disheveled.
"Damn it!"
Cursing under her breath, Yun Qianxi sat in confusion.
Momentarily, she snapped back to her senses, recalling what happened.
She had been on a mission and seized a roast goose along the way. Much to her surprise, a bomb was hidden inside that damn goose.
With a loud bang, she was blasted into the sky along with the delicious roast goose.
What the hell, she thought. How could she be so unlucky? Instead of being killed by enemies, she fell because of food.
Yun Qianxi held her forehead helplessly, on the verge of tears.
Oh, heavens, how did her renown come to this?!
