A Hunter’s Wife - Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Obtaining the Space

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the middle of the blue ocean, a small yacht was parked alone.

Mao Xiaoyu was wearing a long white dress and sitting on the deck.

“Grandpa, Mom, Dad, I’ve avenged you!” She looked at the surface of the ocean listlessly as she threw the white bags into the ocean mechanically.

The white bag contained nothing but the ashes of the enemy she had killed.

Mao Xiaoyu was a sweet girl on the outside, but she was a vengeful person. Otherwise, she would not have turned her enemy into ashes after taking revenge.

And she even took the trouble to bring a pile of ashes to the southernmost tip of the country. She threw all her enemies into the sea to feed the sharks!

Touching the diamond on her chest, Mao Xiaoyu burst into tears. Why did you leave me alone?!

The little colored diamond on her chest was the family heirloom of the Mao family. After her family was exterminated, she sneaked back to the old mansion and took it from the secret room in her grandfather’s study.

It had been more than half a year since the massacre. When Mao Xiaoyu thought of her family’s tragic death, she still felt heartache.

Ever since she was young, her grandfather had always said that when you contribute to others, you contribute to yourself too.

The Mao family was a well-known reclusive family and was famous for their medical skills. In the reclusive world, there was no one who had not owed the Mao family a favor.

Even though Mao Xiaoyu had already gotten her revenge, she still had not found out why her family was exterminated.

One had to know that Mao Xiaoyu had been living in that circle since she was young, so she naturally had a lot of connections.

However, although her friends had been helping her to take revenge in secret for the past six months, none of them knew why the Mao family had suffered such a disaster.

After wailing for a while, Mao Xiaoyu picked up the red wine beside her and poured it into her mouth. If red wine could kill her, she would drink til she died in a drunken stupor.

Gradually, the sun in the sky was replaced by the moon, and only Mao Xiaoyu’s small yacht was floating on the sea.

Mao Xiaoyu had already finished a few bottles of red wine, and there were still traces of tears on her pale face.

“Who wants to save you bunch of bastards? I, Mao Xiaoyu, will never practice medicine and save people in my life!” An almost inaudible voice came out from Mao Xiaoyu’s cherry-like mouth.

She waved her arms. “Get lost, all of you get lost. You’re all beasts!” She was drunk, and she spoke from the heart.

After mumbling to herself for a while, Mao Xiaoyu wrapped her arms around herself and shivered.

“Oh, it’s so cold!” Mao Xiaoyu opened her eyes in a daze. She got up unsteadily and staggered to the cabin.

“Argh, even the doorframe is bullying me!” When she entered the cabin, Mao Xiaoyu’s palm was cut by something.

Pouting in grievance, Mao Xiaoyu clutched the colored diamond and fell onto the sofa in the cabin.

“Grandpa, Mom, Dad… I miss you so much!” Rubbing the colored diamond, Mao Xiaoyu fell asleep.

Just as she was rubbing the colored diamond with her hand, the blood on her palm slowly seeped into the colored diamond. After a ‘bang’, Mao Xiaoyu’s figure disappeared from the cabin.

…

Mao Xiaoyu opened her eyes and stretched comfortably.

“Eh, wasn’t I on the yacht?” Mao Xiaoyu looked around in confusion.

As far as the eye could see, there was a boundless grassland, a small house, and a few scattered trees.

Mao Xiaoyu was confused. This did not look like an island. How did she end up here?

With doubts in her mind, Mao Xiaoyu walked towards the small house in fine condition.

When she got closer, she realized that the house was not small. It was a small two-story villa!

The yard inside the fence alone occupied several acres.

“Is anyone home?” Mao Xiaoyu placed her hands on the fence and asked in a clear voice.

The only reply she got was the sound of running water.

After a while, Mao Xiaoyu carefully pushed open the wattled door and walked in.

She still didn’t give up along the way and kept shouting, afraid that she was breaking into somebody’s house and upsetting the owner.

She was still counting on the owner of this house to give her some advice!

She wanted to know where she was, and how can she leave this place.

Mao Xiaoyu went straight to the villa’s main door. She knocked on the door with her thin and white fingers, “Is anyone in?”

She called three times in a row, but still, no one responded.

Just as Mao Xiaoyu was hesitating and was about to leave the yard to wait for the owner to return, the wooden door of the villa opened!

She was so shocked that she took a few steps back. Then, she stuck her head into the door again, unwilling to give up. “Hello?”

However, no matter how many times she asked, no one responded.

Through the crack of the door, Mao Xiaoyu saw that the room was empty. There were sets of tables and chairs in the middle of the hall.

Pushing the door open carefully, Mao Xiaoyu stepped into the hall and looked around.

On the left side of the entrance, there was a wall of medicine cabinets. Looking at the familiar totem on the medicine cabinet, Mao Xiaoyu’s eyes instantly turned red.

The beautiful feather pattern was the exclusive totem of the Mao family. Mao Xiaoyu could not be more familiar with it!

“Is anyone there? I am Mao Xiaoyu, the 33rd generation successor of the reclusive Mao family!” At the end of her sentence, Mao Xiaoyu’s voice could be described as sobbing.

Without caring if anyone responded to her, Mao Xiaoyu strode towards the desk, eager to prove something.

The desk was very clean, and there was a book on it.

On the first page of the book, it was written, “Mao family’s ancient records.” On the lower right corner, it was signed: ‘Mao Maochun’.

Mao Maochun. Her grandfather had told her this name when she was young. The ancestor of the Mao family was called Mao Maochun.

On the second page, the ancestor, Mao Maochun, introduced the Space that she was in.

The ancestor said that this Space was obtained by chance and told his descendants to be careful. If people with ‘intentions’ found out, the family would be in trouble.

Mao Xiaoyu’s slender white finger touched her lips. After a while, she revealed an expression of ‘I see’.

“So that’s how it is.” It seemed that the extermination of her family must have something to do with this Space.

But who was the one who revealed this secret?

She had grown up by her grandfather’s side. No matter if it was her grandfather or her parents, she had never heard of a family having a heaven-defying treasure.

After thinking for a long time, Mao Xiaoyu still could not come up with an answer. She simply retracted her thoughts and continued to look down at the book.

The third page continued to introduce the Space, and finally explained in detail how to enter and exit it.

“Spirit spring? I wonder if it has any special effects!” The old ancestor did not explain much about the spirit spring, but Mao Xiaoyu was a fan of novels, so she was not unfamiliar with the so-called spirit spring.

Even though she was quite interested in the spirit spring, it was not as if it would sprout legs and run away. Hence, Mao Xiaoyu was not in a hurry to verify it.
