A foreigner?
Zhang Kun put Xiao Zhi down subconsciously⦠This place was not a popular tourist spot, the foreigners would rarely travel to this townâOnly a few of them did. Zhang Kun had only seen them several times in so many years.
Foreigners were troublesome. Zhang Kunâs brother-in-law was a police officer but not a high ranking one. Although Zhang Kun was not a good guy but he knew clearly how to distinguish between friends and enemies. If he clashed with this foreigner like a lion defending its territory, he would be accused of damaging international friendships. If so, even his brother-in-law couldnât save him. In addition, his brother-in-law had turned a blind eye to his behaviors these years⦠if he caused a big trouble this time, his brother-in-law would surely place justice above family loyalty.
âSan Er, greet your customers.â Zhang Kun picked up one bag of Tofu and smiled, âI will buy some Tofu⦠tomorrow.â After speaking, he took out two coins from his pocket⦠two RMB. He put down the coins on the table with a winning smirk on his face.
âDonât worry. There is still timeâ¦the Tofu shop wonât disappear and San Er wonât leave either. No need to get into trouble with the foreigners.â
Seeing Zhang Kun leave, San Er hugged Xiaozhi right away and comforted her before stepping forward. She recognized this man, she was the one that had saved him by the riverside. Not knowing what to say she didnât think of meeting him again, she mumbled, âThank⦠you.â
The man shook his head and reached for a coin on the table. He then threw the coin out suddenly. San Er didnât know what the foreigner wanted to do but she heard a voice after that. Turning her head, she found that Zhang Kun was lying on the ground and shouting at the ground in a distance. It seemed that he stumbled and fell face-first into a pile of⦠dog sh*t.
Many local businessmen couldnât help laughing. San Er laughed with hands covering mouth but she had a feeling it was the foreigner who made Zhang Kun stumble. So, she stopped laughing turned her head back.
Zhang Kunâs face was full of shit. He had no dignity left to continue staying on the street. Therefore, he rushed back with his head lowered.
âHave⦠you been to the police station?â San Er started the topic first.
âYes.â The foreigner said, âBut they couldnât help me.â
âOh⦠why!â San Er was shockedâIn her opinion, it must be a big trouble if the policemen couldnât solve it.
The man added, âThatâs alright. I regained some memories now. My memory was a little vague and I needed some time to recover.â After words, the man took out his wallet and opened it on the face of San Er, âThis is my ID card as well as some money. I want to rent this place for a short period while recovering memories.â
San Er was stunned⦠She heard that foreigners were straightforward, but she hasnât thought that the man was so frank. San Er looked at his ID card and read his name in mindâMark.
âExcuse me.â The foreign man⦠Mark, stepped in and didnât wait for San Er to say yes. He was looking around.
âWait, I didnât say yesâ¦â But Xiaozhi tugged a piece of her motherâs clothes. âMummy, will this uncle protect us?â
âI have no ideaâ¦â San Er shook her head. She had a feeling that there was something strange happening in her life⦠She had thought of rejecting Mark. Yes, she had.

Deep underground, Su Zijun felt quite comfortable staying together with the energetic leyline. She was filled with pure spiritual energyâHowever, as a high leveled monster, it didnât make any difference even if she was filled with spiritual energy for hundreds of years. One more important thing needed to be doneâShe came to Xiang Liu.
Chains from all directions were binding Xiang Liuâs arms and legs one by oneâSu Zijun was familiar with the scene. She was treated like this when she entered that strange club.
âXiang Liu, raise your head.â Su Zijun said to Xiang Liu.
Xiang Liuâs face was pale⦠He looked like a patient who was suffering from mental torture every day. He smiled coldly when he saw Su Zijun, âWho are you⦠are you princess? Did you come to see my pathetic state? But, I like this place very much.â
Xiang Liu shook the chains, âBut these are very noisy. I canât even sleep.â
âSome questions. If you satisfy me, I will let you be a little more comfortable.â Su Zijun said.
Xiang Liu squinted, âPrincess, are you begging me for help?â
Su Zijun sneered and pinched Xiang Liuâs neck with sharp nails, âI can make you more comfortable or let you die, believe it or not.â
âGo ahead.â Xiang Liu chuckled.
âBlack clouds covered the world, flying dragon in golden armor, on lunar Feb 2nd, the dragon raised its headâ¦â Su Zijun asked, âWhere did you hear this sentence?â
âFrom an inscription.â The purple eyebrow of Xiang Liu became smooth. His eyes were shining with a cunning light. âAnd, I know more about this.â
âWhere is that inscription?â
âI swear, I will hand the inscription over in person if princess frees me. Alright?â
âI have said that I am not Long Xiruo.â Su Zijunâs eyes shimmered with cold light, âI will help if you want to die.â Her fingers opened and pierced into Xiang Liuâs body using her sharp nails, âI will drain your blood and make you die slowly⦠Anyhow, your life now is even worse than dying.â
Xiang Liu shouted at once. At the same time, blood was running crazily from the wound⦠and the blood was gradually transforming into a big blood ball. Xiang Liu was cunning and sinister, but now, he was regretful. The girl from the fallen royal Xuanyuan family was not the former princess anymore. She was much more malicious.
âMy princess, you will never know the location of that inscription if you kill me.â
Su Zijun snorted, âI can kill hundreds even thousands of wandering ghosts. I have many ways to dig it out.â
Xiang Liu didnât know the relation between the inscription and killing hundreds of ghosts⦠But the fact was that Su Zijun wanted to kill him now. Xiang Liu was calculating how much blood had flown into that blood ball⦠and for how long he could control his fear.
Time passed, Xiang Liu couldnât stand it anymore. He moved lips⦠the chains binding him rotated and lashed toward Su Zijun quickly.
Su Zijun clapped her hands and had to step backward under the attack of the chains.
The blood was flowing back to Xiang Liuâs body and the chains returned to their original place.
Su Zijun was terrified. But Xiang Liu laughed, âHahaha! Princess, it will not be easy to kill me. It wonât let me die. Hahahaha!â
âThen you can just stay in the dark forever!â Su Zijun snorted and waved her hand. Her finger shot a drop of blood into Xiang Liuâs mouth.
Seeing the shocked Xiang Liu, Su Zijun smiled, âI can kill you but I am just lazy to do so. You have swallowed my Bloodthirsty Curse. It will burn your blood three times a day, leaving you a fate worse than death. Enjoy it!â
A hot painful sensation was burning his body after Su Zijun spoke. Xiang Liu couldnât help making a whine.
Su Zijun had returned to the ground. Looking at the sky, she realized it was not dark. âSo sleepyâ¦â

The female secretary knocked on the doorâto the office of the director of Feiyun Entertainment.
âMr. Cheng, Li Zifeng from the supervision department wants to meet you.â
Cheng Yun frowned. He planned to hold a press conference to publicize his new company but he had to cancel it due to the ânaturally formed pitsâ. Although it was caused by nature, he was really worried as a golden spokesman because his real boss was feeling troubled too.
âFor what?â
âItâs about the project proposed days ago.â
âLet him in.â Cheng Yun said.
Later, Li Zifeng met with Cheng YunâHe was an old employee of Heavenâs Shadow Entertainment. Heavenâs Shadow Entertainment found a new boss and reunited, hence most of the employees did not changeâOf course, this was decided by the second young masterâZhong Luochen. According to him, they should be nice to these old employees. So, Cheng Yun smiled to Li Zifeng, âLi Zifeng, whatâs the matter?â
Li Zifeng was more than thirty years old. He was mature in this industry. He smiled, âMr. Cheng, I discovered a pretty good person. We can package him and debut him formally!â
