Chu Yifeng heard this without getting angry. He toyed with the jade pendant at his waist and pursed his lips. âAs the Pavilion Master, I could show leniency, but it would require Senior Sisterâs intercession to be effective.â
Senior Sister was referring to Rong Sheng.
His unabashed admiration for Rong Sheng was evident in his eyes.
Su Yingxue struggled to comprehend how this guy became the East Pavilion Master of the Silver Moon Pavilion. Could it be just luck?
He seemed utterly infatuated with Rong Sheng!
âRelease them,â Rong Sheng said nonchalantly, paying no mind to Chu Yifeng.
âVery well, Ah Hong, release them and give each one ten taels of silver.â
Chu Yifeng gestured grandly. He commanded with imperial authority despite the absence of a dragon throne.
Ah Hong promptly organized the distribution of silver and released the captives.
The sudden turn of events left Su Yingxue needing time to process, and the ninety-eight female slaves behind her took a while to react, shedding tears of joy. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
When Ah Jing received the silver, she tearfully thanked Su Yingxue, âSister Yingxue, thank you. Arenât you joining us?â
Su Yingxue shook her head and gently touched Ah Jingâs face. âI have other matters to attend to. Ah Jing, once youâre out, you must live well.â
âYes! Sister Yingxue, Iâll make sure to live well and not disappoint you!â
As Ah Jing left, gratitude filled her eyes.
Watching the ninety-eight female slaves depart, Su Yingxue sighed, âSurviving truly isnât easy.â
âThose who are alive bear heavy responsibilities, like you and me.â
Rong Shengâs eyes darkened.
Suddenly, Su Yingxue felt a profound resonance with Rong Sheng.
Rong Sheng brought her back to the Silver Moon Pavilion and candidly revealed that she too had transmigrated.
To be precise, she was forcefully brought into this world by Wu Dao.
Wu Dao was a top-tier medical doctor in the modern world and possessed a coveted medical laboratory. He hailed from a powerful family and was nearly perfect. In the modern world where civilization was open and technology was advanced, his ambition was extremely vast!
He wanted to be the king, to become the ruler of the world!
He felt that he could control a personâs life and death by mastering the most cutting-edge and powerful medical science!
Unfortunately, his idea could not be realized in modern times.
Therefore, through a scientific experiment, he found this world in a parallel time and space and brought a few of his most proud students to transmigrate.
Rong Sheng, Long Shuli, and Han Yuwen were among them.
Rong Sheng and Long Shuli initially believed that they had followed Wu Dao into an era rife with corruption. They desired change, healing, and the creation of an era belonging to them, one where they could establish medical humanities.
However, they later discovered that the mentor who brought them there had given himself a name, âWu Daoâ.
That wasnât his true intention!
He was merely ambitious, seeking to conquer the era and dominate the world. He wanted to become the sole supreme ruler!
He aimed to control all the people of this world!
He established the Silver Moon Pavilion, commencing his ambitious journey.
Initially, their disagreement made Wu Dao somewhat hesitant. But later, he directly targeted Long Shuli, using her fate as a warning to her and Han Yuwen. He even sought to recruit more people to aid him in uniting the world.
For the sake of the people of this world, Long Shuli caused Wu Dao to fall ill, temporarily halting his ambitions.
âWu Dao has Porphyria, preventing him from sunlight exposure. The conditions here hinder his self-treatment. He can only constantly replenish his hemoglobin, hence his search for a suitable blood source for extraction,â Rong Sheng elucidated all of Su Yingxueâs queries.
Su Yingxue swiftly processed these doubts in her mind.
âSo, Wu Dao killed my mother?â Su Yingxueâs fists clenched tightly, emitting cracking sounds.
Rong Sheng nodded. âYou could say that. Your mother was defiled by your father, all orchestrated by Wu Dao. However, Senior Sister was resilient. Despite adversity, she would find a way through. Eventually, she bore Su Hao, becoming a marquisâs madam, and then youâ¦â
This was something Rong Sheng had never fully comprehended. Long Shuli being drugged and bearing Su Hao was happenstance.
Yet, a few years later, she conceived Su Yingxueâ¦
âHow did Wu Dao kill my mother? Did he intend to kill me too back then?â Su Yingxueâs eyes reddened.
Rong Sheng shook his head. âMuch more cruel.â
Wu Dao spun a beautiful lie for Long Shuli, promising her that death would reunite her with the modern world.
Long Shuli, weary of the worldâs turmoil and tired of battling Wu Dao, still harbored a modicum of trust in him. Thus, when she bore Su Yingxue, she passed away in peace.
But Rong Sheng knew Long Shuli could never return.
Ultimately, she perished under Wu Daoâs deceit.
âWu Dao⦠youâre heartless and yet aspire to rule the world?â Su Yingxueâs resolve hardened.
Dream on!
Even if it cost her life, Su Yingxue would kill him!
For the sake of the people!
âAlright, give it two more days. When the time is right, weâll eliminate Wu Dao together,â Rong Sheng reassured, gently holding her hand.
âUs?â Su Yingxue stood up curiously and pointed at Chu Yifeng, who was lying on the soft couch and being served by a beautiful female slave. âCould he have also transmigrated here?â
Hadnât Chu Yihanâs real brother died long ago?
RongShengshook her head. âHehasnât.â
Back then, to save Chu Yifengâs life, she had deliberately fabricated the fact that he was already dead. She also made Wu Dao think that he had successfully brought another senior brother over during the experiment, thus deceiving him.
For so many years, she had been teaching Chu Yifeng how to not let Wu Dao find out.
They had been hiding it from Wu Dao until now.
