Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Tianluo City, the Qiu residence. The silvery moon cast a shimmering reflection on the calm waters.
A pitiful-looking young lady had eyes brimming with tears as she held tightly onto a man’s sleeve.
“Brother Lin Hao, what shall we do? Sister isn’t dead, is she?”
The man was dressed from head to toe in white, had a slender physique and a handsome appearance. He looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old.
He looked at the young lady, who leaned against him like a pitiful young kitten in his embrace, and his heart burst with compassion.
“Yue’er, don’t blame yourself. This trash jumped into the waters of his own accord. It has nothing to do with us. We’ll just tell Uncle Qiu exactly what happened.”
Upon hearing the man’s words, the young lady couldn’t help but lower her head and glance at the other lady, who had already stopped breathing and was now lying on the ground. Her lips curled up into a sinister smirk.
Qiu Nuo, so what if you’re the Qiu family’s daughter? Your fiancé and your father, and perhaps even the entire Qiu family, will be mine in the future!
When she lifted her head again, the young lady’s expression once again returned to that pitiful look, with tears brimming in her eyes.
“But Sister committed suicide because she found out about us. It’s my fault. If not for me, Sister would still be well and alive…”
Looking at the tear-filled young lady, the man’s heart melted.
“Yue’er, you’re too innocent. She’s trash that doesn’t deserve your sympathy. Besides, it’s my business whom I like. Did she think that she would be able to threaten me with suicide? How childish!”
“Brother Lin Hao, don’t talk about my sister like that. She’s my elder sister, after all!”
“Alright, alright. Whatever Yue’er says.”
The couple hugged each other tightly.
Neither of them had realized that the young lady, who had initially been lying motionless on the ground, had gradually opened her eyes, revealing an emotionless and cold gaze.
“I’m not dead?”
That was the only thought running through Qiu Nuo’s mind.
She remembered that she had clearly perished in the sea, and she had even suffered a shot to the chest. There was no way she could have survived. How was this current situation even possible?
At that very moment, Qiu Nuo felt as though there was a huge crash in her mind, and endless memories came crashing down on her like waves.
Humiliation! Ridicule! Satire! Betrayal!
All these heart-wrenching images appeared in front of Qiu Nuo one after the other.
She knew that these weren’t her own memories, and yet, they seemed to be her personal experiences!
Unwillingness! Resentment!
Countless emotions filled her mind, and she felt as though her brain was going to be torn apart. The pain was so excruciating that she passed out.
…
When she awoke, Qiu Nuo realized that she was lying on a carved wooden bed.
“Miss, you’re awake!” A servant girl dressed in coarse clothes came to her bed with a porcelain bowl. “Second Mistress specifically sent this ginseng soup over for you to nourish your body.”
Qiu Nuo sat upon expressionlessly, glanced at the bowl in the servant’s hands, and smirked coldly. “I don’t dare to drink anything from her. Pour it away.”
“Huh?” Die Yi’s eyes widened as wide as saucers. “Miss, this soup was made with hundred-year-old ginseng. It’ll be a pity to throw it out!”
“You can have it if you want.” Qiu Nuo got off her bed and walked to her closet, picking out a random light blue dress to drape on her. “Go down. Don’t come in without my instructions.”
“Okay.” Die Yi thought it was strange. Nevertheless, she took the ginseng soup and left.
When Qiu Nuo heard the door shut, she turned around in confusion, taking in the unfamiliar antique room. She’d never have expected to transmigrate!
She had been a miracle doctor with top-notch medical skills in the twenty-first century but had been killed in an unfortunate assassination. As a result, she had transmigrated into a body that shared the same name as her, even inheriting all of this young lady’s memories.
And this young lady’s memories could be said to well surpass all of her knowledge!
It was such a colorful life that encompassed the three most powerful professions in the world: a Warrior, a Soul Master, and a Summoner!
In short, a Warrior trained the body, a Soul Master refined the soul, while a Summoner was a rare profession superior to both Warriors and Soul Masters.
Qiu Nuo did not find much information about Summoners in this body’s memories.
After all, she had never had it in her to train from a young age. As such, she had had limited exposure to such things.
At the thought of this, Qiu Nuo couldn’t help but furrow her brows.
In a world where the strong ruled, someone with no training was no different from being disabled. How was she supposed to protect what mattered to her?
What did a foolish girl like Qiu Nuo, who loved that guy, Lin Hao, with all her heart, get in return?
She would never let such a thing happen to her!
Qiu Nuo’s eyes were cold as she caressed her hurting wound. “Don’t worry. I’ll help you get revenge on those people little by little for all the humiliation you suffered!”
…
The Qiu family was considered among the most respected families in Tianluo City and ran a business dealing with medicine and minerals.
However, six years ago, the Qiu family was made into a huge joke.
The Qiu family’s current patriarch, Qiu Yuansheng, had always maintained a good relationship with his wife. Unfortunately, Madam Qiu had passed away soon after giving birth to a daughter because of an illness.
In the years that followed, Qiu Yuansheng had refused to get remarried no matter how much his elders tried to persuade him.
Thankfully, Qiu Nuo had shown rather promising talent in the beginning, especially her photographic memory that no one else in Tianluo City could hold a candle to.
As such, the Qiu family’s elders stopped with their nagging for some time and did not pursue the matter of Qiu Yuansheng remarrying.
As per the customs of Jiuzhou Mainland, Qiu Nuo became eligible to test her abilities at the Wuhun Hall the year she turned eight.
That day was probably the most important but also the most embarrassing and humiliating day for the Qiu family in the whole decade.
A good hundred people of the Qiu family tagged along to see the Qiu family’s daughter get tested at the Wuhun Hall, but the result was jaw-dropping.
The pride of the Qiu family had turned out to be a piece of trash that couldn’t even be cultivated!
It wouldn’t be too astonishing to be told that Qiu Nuo had no talent for becoming a Soul Master. After all, it was rare to find even one person who had the talent for it amongst a hundred people. But she didn’t even have the talent to be cultivated into a Warrior! That was dumbfounding!
No matter how poor one’s condition was, it was always possible to cultivate them into a Warrior as long as they had the proper methods at hand.
Qiu Yuansheng thought that something was amiss as well and invited the best doctor in Tianluo City to examine Qiu Nuo. In the end, they realized that her meridians were all blocked and that her body did indeed have a constitution so poor that it was only seen once in a blue moon!
In other words, Qiu Nuo’s only advantage was her intelligence. Other than that, she was useless!
Someone like that was naturally unqualified to be the successor of the Qiu family.
As such, it wasn’t long after that Qiu Yue made her appearance.
She was an orphan, who possessed talents in Soul Mastery, found by the Qiu family’s First Elder, and was eventually adopted by the Qiu family.
Qiu Yue was a bright and adorable girl of the same age as Qiu Nuo. Her temper was good and she was gentle and considerate at such a young age, always putting others before herself.
In comparison, Qiu Nuo, who had grown up being pampered by everyone, was much worse.
Ever since the day she had been rejected, Qiu Nuo had fallen from grace in the Qiu family. On the other hand, Qiu Yue, who had just joined the Qiu family, had quickly won everyone over. This made Qiu Nuo resent Qiu Yue.
Yet, this was exactly what had made Qiu Yue even kinder in others’ eyes while Qiu Nuo was gradually cast aside.
Even Lin Hao, who had always been by Qiu Nuo’s side, protecting her, had left her in the end. He had taken a fancy to the Qiu family’s adopted daughter, Qiu Yue, who possessed exceptional talent.
But was Qiu Yue really that innocent and harmless? Of course not! She excelled in twisting facts, and every time something happened, she would push the blame to Qiu Nuo without fail. Unfortunately, everyone chose to believe her, and Qiu Nuo’s explanations would always be in vain.
Over time, Qiu Nuo’s reputation in Tianluo City had come crashing down.
To avoid suspicion, the First Elder had taken the initiative to send Qiu Nuo down to the Qiu family’s medicinal garden at the foot of Ziying Mountain when Qiu Yuansheng had shut himself in to study for the Sixth Level Test. To put it nicely, they had sent her there to get familiar with the Qiu family’s medicinal business ahead of time. But in fact, they had simply sent her there to be an apprentice to do odd jobs.
