The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits-Chapter 1372 - 1385: Evil King Chases His Wife (Part 4)
But the eldest senior brother Fu Qianzhong was naturally inclined to pity the weak. The more Shui Linglong targeted the original owner, the more he wanted to protect this little child.
If the original owner could say anything, she really wanted to tell the eldest senior brother that as long as he stayed far away from her, she would have no trouble.
But she dared not...
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to stay in the Beast Taming Sect.
As the years passed, the original owner’s beauty became more and more striking. Initially, the eldest senior brother protected her as a child, but he began to realize that this junior sister in front of him was a beauty, and gradually, she captured his heart.
This was something Shui Linglong could no longer tolerate.
Initially, the difficulties and troubles were mere child’s play, but later the target was aimed directly at the original owner’s life.
Although the original owner’s personality was tough and determined, it didn’t mean she was someone who would swallow her grievances and willingly surrender.
In a Secret Realm that only Foundation Establishment Stage disciples could enter, the original owner obtained a Spirit-washing Grass, which could purify her Spirit Root.
Unexpectedly, she encountered Shui Linglong, who intended to kill her and seize the treasure.
Shui Linglong was at the Great Perfection of the Late Stage Foundation Establishment, just one step away from achieving the Golden Core.
However, her Realm was entirely forced up with spirit pills by her father, Master Shui, and she lacked actual combat experience, far inferior to the original owner, who was honed through life-and-death trials.
The original owner did not kill her but severely injured her and left her there.
Who would have thought Shui Linglong would have such bad luck and encounter a rampaging demon beast.
In her dying moments, Shui Linglong used a secret treasure to send out her last words, asking her father to avenge her.
She blamed her death entirely on the original owner.
If it wasn’t for her resistance and refusal to obediently hand over the items, how could they have gotten into a fight?
If it wasn’t for the other injuring her severely, how could she have failed to escape, ending up trampled by the demon beast?
Upon receiving the news of his beloved daughter’s demise, regardless of Shui Linglong’s last message, Master Shui was already determined to kill the original owner.
With his daughter dead, how could he allow someone his daughter detested to live longer than his own precious one?
If not for Fu Qianzhong being the favored disciple of the Sect Leader, whom he couldn’t touch... otherwise, he would have even considered taking Fu Qianzhong to be buried with his daughter.
Unfortunately, before the original owner left the Secret Realm, she consumed the Spirit-washing Grass, successfully refining her Spirit Root into a Heavenly Spirit Root.
Such a talent was unrivaled within the entire Beast Taming Sect.
Those elders who had previously turned a blind eye out of respect for Master Shui could no longer sit idle.
Even if it meant offending Master Shui, they were determined to protect the original owner.
Eventually, the original owner successfully entered the tutelage of a female True Man.
However, Master Shui repeatedly attempted to frame the original owner, but each time she managed to avoid it.
In the end, Master Shui, like his daughter, suffered the consequences of his actions and fell.
Later, under the sect’s resource support, the original owner quickly grew, and upon the Sect Leader’s suggestion, she formed a Daoist couple with the eldest senior brother.
Finally, the two successfully repaired the Heavenly Ladder and ascended to the Upper Realm together, creating a renowned legacy.
No one knew that Shui Linglong, who had fallen early, still lingered in a strange space, witnessing everything that happened after her death and secretly remembering many secrets, known and unknown to others.
When her consciousness awakened again, Shui Linglong was shocked to find she had been reborn.
Reborn to the eve of entering the Secret Realm, where she was destined to fall.
This time, Shui Linglong learned her lesson.
She no longer confronted the original owner head-on but instead, took the initiative to pick the Spirit-washing Grass and obtained the most important inheritance within the Secret Realm.
Upon exiting the Secret Realm, she seemed like a completely different person, no longer entangled with Fu Qianzhong.
If the gentleman is indifferent, then I shall let go...
Her sudden coldness caught Fu Qianzhong off guard and even intrigued him a bit.
At this moment, another wickedly charming man appeared by Shui Linglong’s side.
This man was unruly, but he was gentle solely towards her, always thinking of her.
But due to the emotional scars from her previous life, Shui Linglong was afraid of being hurt and didn’t dare to love again, entangled with this man for quite some time.
Ironically, when she decided to let go, Fu Qianzhong developed feelings for her instead.
As for the original owner, even without Shui Linglong targeting her, because she was someone Shui Linglong detested—her Heart Demon embodied within—the original owner couldn’t fare well.
Fu Qianzhong merely treated her with indifference, while Yunli Mountain went further and directly framed her for colluding with the Demon Sect.
At that time, the original owner lacked outstanding talent and lost the protection of the eldest senior brother, making her unable to defend herself.
In reality, could the elders of the Beast Taming Sect really not see through the intrigue?
Not so; it was just that both of the sect’s geniuses came to loathe her, so who would dare to offend Lijian Peak for the sake of an ordinary disciple.
The original owner was thus thrown into the bottom of Lingfeng Mountain Cliff, gradually wearing away her pride.
For a full eighty years, she suffered the excruciating torture, despairingly feeling the dimming of her soul’s light.
She couldn’t understand what she had done wrong to deserve such torment.
But things weren’t over yet.
When at the bottom of Lingfeng Cliff for the eighty years, Shui Linglong and Fu Qianzhong appeared together.
They came to persuade her to save the world.
The two of them were the anomalies in this world.
They were the Yang Stone and Yin Stone respectively, and only by willingly sacrificing themselves would the Yin Yang Fish Stone materialize, repair the Heavenly Ladder, and prevent a great calamity. Only then could the people of this small world be spared.
But the original owner was unwilling. In this world, no one had ever truly treated her kindly, so why should she trouble herself for these selfish and hypocritical people?
Moreover, after seventy years of eroding gales, she wouldn’t live much longer. Even her soul would entirely dissipate, leaving no chance for reincarnation.
This was great; wouldn’t it be good for so many people to accompany her in death?
Seeing the original owner refuse, Fu Qianzhong and Shui Linglong were first shocked, then attempted to persuade her.
Only when they saw that the original owner was adamant did these hypocrites go mad.
Facing death, even those who had lived for tens of thousands of years would be afraid.
Later, Yunli Mountain devised a good plan.
As long as the original owner did not agree, a city of mortals would be slaughtered by the Demon General.
Especially the men and women of Su Family Manor being ravaged by the Demon General. Although it had been 89 or 90 years since she embarked on the Immortal Path, traces of familiarity could still be seen in those faces.
Eventually, the original owner’s heart softened.
