During the hot summer, in Dragon City, the remote mountainous area of Zhongling Country, Dongli Continent, a haggard and black person was lying unconscious in the forest of Jade Dragon Mountain.
"Miss, is she dead?"
"Hmph! That ugly woman should have died a long time ago. It's her honor to have lived until now!" That was said by a young teenage Miss who looked like she comes from money.
"But she is Mu Ye's younger sister. If Mu Ye and Mr. Mu find out that we killed her, they won't let us go."
The girl glared at the person who had just spoken. "Everyone here is from our manor. Who would know if we killed this loser? Or... are you trying to betray me and the people of our manor?"
The person immediately smiled and said, "No, no, no, Miss, I didn't mean that. It's good if she's dead. Only after she's dead can you let go of your grudge."
"I guess you're still sensible enough. Let's go!"
The young miss left the forest with her guards. No one could have predicted that the person who had been lying motionless on the ground would slowly open her eyes.
"Mu Ye? Mr. Mu? Who are they?"
Mu Wuxin was always calm, but now she looked flustered. Wasn't she going to die with her uncle?
She, Mu Wuxin, was a medical genius of the 25th century. She'd studied medicine at the age of five and had become famous at the age of thirteen. There weren't many complicated diseases she couldn't solve. She was also a descendant of an ancient martial arts family. Her grandfather's adopted son—who was her father's brother and her eldest uncle—had attempted to kill her father and her in order to compete for the position of the head of the family. In addition, he'd stooped so low in order to get his hands on the coveted Omnipotent Medical Dictionary, the Ice Spirit Needle, and the Heaven Waterdrop.
Only, was she that easy to kill? If she was that easy to kill, she would have died when she was younger.
In confusion, she looked at the forest in front of her. She clearly remembered that she had died with her eldest uncle. How had she appeared here?
"Where is this place?"
Mu Wuxin struggled to get up from the ground. She keenly felt that the air around her was a little more comfortable, but she didn't know where she was.
Apart from rustling the leaves, the only other sound was the roar of wild beasts from time to time.
The faint stench of blood in the air made her realize that she was in a very dangerous place.
However, she didn't show any fear but was just instinctively on alert. The Ice Spirit Needle in her body was ready to attack at any time.
That's right. The Omnipotent Medical Dictionary, the Ice Spirit Needle, and the Heaven Waterdrop that her uncle had wanted to snatch were hidden within her body. Those who weren't direct descendants had no idea that these three treasures could be bound by blood.
The Heaven Waterdrop was a huge treasure that could be divided into two spaces. In it were some spiritual medicines that were not found on the market. It also contained the much sought-after spiritual water. It could rejuvenate one's essence and marrow and even change one's constitution.
As per her father, it was an omnipotent space that she could plant in or raise spirit beasts. He said that the space could protect her. As long as she remained alive, the spiritual water could nourish her until she recovered.
This was what her father had told her before he drew his last breath. She'd wanted to test out the spiritual water that her father had mentioned, but fate had not been on her side. Her uncle had closed in on her, and she could only watch as her father died in front of her.
This incensed her. She had nothing to worry about as everyone she cared about was gone. She'd tried to deploy the Icy Heart Technique in her body to freeze her uncle to death. In the end, her internal force was stronger than she could bear and her body exploded. That was why she'd said that she'd dragged her uncle to hell with her.
Mu Wuxin felt a piercing pain in her heart. She lowered her head and her legendary calmness cracked to reveal a surprised expression. "Why am I in a child's body?"
She reached out to feel her pulse. She... she was only six years old?! She knew where her wounds had come from, but what about the poison in her body? Who could be so vicious as to have poisoned a six-year-old child in the heart?
At this moment, Mu Wuxin's stomach growled. It must have been a long time since she had eaten anything. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so dizzy with hunger.
"Talk about cruel people. As if a six-year-old child can be a threat. What would call for such a vicious method? They even used the Heart Sealing Spell. As soon as the poison sealed one's heart meridian, they would drop dead immediately. Tsk, tsk... Nothing is crueler than human beings."
It would not do to let her hunger go unsatiated. She refused to starve to death in this forest.
With a thought from Mu Wuxin, the Ice Spirit Needle appeared in her hand. She inserted the invisible needle into her heart, temporarily sealing the toxin and stopping the pain.
Mu Wuxin muttered to herself, "It's not enough just to relieve the pain. I have to flush out the poison as soon as possible."
Looking up at the scorching sun hanging high in the sky, she made up her mind that although there was no one around, she had to find some food to fill her hunger first. Otherwise, she would starve to death.
In the vast forest, other than being able to hear the roars of wild beasts, Mu Wuxin did not feel the slightest bit of human presence. She trudged on as she searched for something to eat in the forest.
Food...
At last! Fortune truly favored those who made an effort. She finally spotted a young rabbit nibbling on some tender grass not too far away.
The Ice Spirit Needle flew through the air with a whistling sound. It hit the rabbit between its brows and punctured the brain. It stretched out its leg with a twitch and lost its life.
Small as it was, it was still meat. What's more, this was only a rabbit that weighed a little over one pound! After removing its bones and skinning it, she could eat and recover some strength. She was not afraid that she would not be able to find food to eat.
She cleaned and then roasted the fat and tender rabbit meat. Soon, a tempting fragrance wafted through the air. As soon as the spices were sprinkled on it, her stomach growled louder.
The oil dripped onto the fire with a sizzle. Just by smelling the fragrance, she could tell that the taste must be good. The moment it was cooked, she tossed a piece of meat into her mouth. She did not care that it had just been roasted and was extremely hot. The rabbit meat was smooth and tender, it was so tasty! She came back to life.
Later she found a cool spot in the shade of a tree, lay down, and closed her eyes. From a distance, it looked like she was sleeping. In reality, she was using her mental strength to perceive her surroundings. Her divine sense found a wild boar and a wolf fighting a mile away.
It had to be said that the animals in this forest were special. In the process of fighting with the wild boar, the human-like wolf avoided the boar's attack and then hit the boar's body with its claws.
It was as if the wolf had an uncanny intelligence. It was very effective in defending itself. The wild boar was not bad either. It knew that its size was superior and charged forward aimlessly.
After exploring with her divine sense for such a long time, she did not realize that she had arrived in a different land. All she knew was that the air was spiritual Qi in the air made her very comfortable. Also, the wolf she sensed was not human-like but a demonic beast. Its intelligence was no worse than human beings, but it could not speak human languages.
