"Angry and furious? That's right. That's exactly how you've treated me for the past ten years. It's best not to provoke me from now on, or else when I go mad, I'll make sure you all accompany me to the grave."
Luo Qingwu walked up to them, smiling eerily, sending chills down their spines.
She loved seeing them unable to stand her yet not daring to lay a finger on her.
"You…" Luo Xueluan glared, her expression on the verge of tears.
Luo Qingwu reached out and patted her cheek arrogantly, saying coldly, "Not convinced? Hold it in."
"Was it you who sent me to the mass burial ground?" Luo Xueluan demanded angrily, her eyes filled with resentment. She would never let her off.
Luo Qingwu looked at Luo Haixuan with a half-smile. "You're really not a competent family head. Last night, you actually allowed the Man in Black to break into my room. I suppose they were the ones who sent my cousin there."
Luo Haixuan's face darkened, his anger boiling inside. He had always thought she was a useless fool, but it seemed he had underestimated her. She had actually managed to win the favor of the Night King.
What frustrated him even more was that the Night King had chosen to visit today of all days, as if the heavens themselves were helping this waste.
"I will rearrange the household guards to ensure such incidents don't happen again," Luo Haixuan said, his gaze probing. How had she managed to escape last night?
Those four were no ordinary Spirit Disciples—they were Spirit Masters.
"Good," Luo Qingwu replied, straightening her back and leisurely walking away.
The servants in the courtyard lowered their heads cautiously as she passed, for the news of her strangling Granny Gui with her bare hands had already spread throughout the mansion.
This was no waste—she was clearly a demon.
Luo Qingwu was satisfied with the servants' attitude. She was making an example of them to prevent these unruly people from bullying her again.
"Father, look at her! She's going to ruin my face!" Luo Xueluan cried, tugging at Luo Haixuan's sleeve.
Luo Haixuan glanced at her face and felt all the blood rush to his head, dizzying him.
He was the head of the Luo family, yet he had been rendered powerless by a waste. What had gone wrong?
Luo Qingwu used to not even dare to breathe loudly, but in the past two days, she seemed like a completely different person.
"Wife, take our daughter to the medicine storehouse and get some high-quality ointment. Don't let scars form. Luo Qingwu's engagement with the Crown Prince will be annulled sooner or later," Luo Haixuan said coldly, his hands clasped behind his back.
Once his daughter entered the Crown Prince's residence in the future, there would be plenty of opportunities to deal with Luo Qingwu.
Luo Xueluan felt a surge of joy, then realized she would have to endure it for now. One day, she would make Luo Qingwu kneel before her, crying and begging for forgiveness.
…
The night was as calm as water.
Luo Qingwu sat in meditation within the Shennong Space. She was grateful that the Divine Artifact had traveled through time and space with her. The space was filled with rich Spiritual Qi, enough for her cultivation.
After detoxifying yesterday, she had used a Marrow-Cleansing Pill to unblock all her previously clogged meridians. With her medication, her energy flow was now incredibly smooth.
In Huaxia, she had been a genius in ancient martial arts cultivation. Now that she had arrived in the Tianling Continent, it was merely a fresh start. What were Spirit Masters? One day, she would reach the pinnacle and make her name known throughout the world.
A moment later.
Luo Qingwu withdrew from her cultivation state and went to the small bamboo hut nearby. After searching through the bookshelf for a long time, she finally pulled out a book.
Thinking of Di Moye's illness, she frowned slightly. Who could be so cruel as to poison him while he was still in his mother's womb?
It wasn't just one poison—it was a mixture of ten.
Mutually reinforcing and restraining, over time, the poison undergoes mutation. If not detoxified, it will transform into a new poison. When it erupts completely one day, his meridians will rupture, blood will flow from all seven orifices, and his entire body will rot.
The next day.
Luo Qingwu wore a bewitching, fiery red dress—her favorite color.
"Miss, will scars remain on your face?" Chun Tao asked worriedly. The young lady's skin was fair and delicate, and those few scars greatly marred her appearance.
"No," Luo Qingwu smiled. She would absolutely not allow any blemish to remain on her face.
Chun Tao's eyes brightened with joy, but then her expression turned troubled. "Miss, can you really cure the Night King's illness? You've never studied medicine before."
"Mother left so many medical books; I didn't read them in vain," Luo Qingwu replied with a leisurely smile.
The original host's mother was a famous divine physician on the Tianling Continent. It was because she saved the Emperor that he arranged her marriage to the Crown Prince.
Chun Tao blinked, thinking that since the Madam's medical skills were so remarkable, the young lady must have great talent. Even without a teacher, she could learn from books alone.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
"Eldest Miss, the Night King has sent someone to fetch you," a timid, weak voice sounded outside the door.
Luo Qingwu stood up and walked outside. Seeing the person at the door, she said coldly, "Nanny Xu, you haven't forgotten how you treated me in the past, have you?"
Thud—
Nanny Xu trembled and knelt on the ground, kowtowing fearfully. "Eldest Miss, please spare this old servant. I will never dare again. Please let me go…"
"See that you don't dare to act out again. If I dared to kill Nanny Gui, I dare to kill you too," Luo Qingwu's icy tone was full of intimidation.
"Yes, yes, this old servant will absolutely follow the rules from now on," Nanny Xu sighed inwardly with relief. Nanny Gui's death had left a deep impression on all the servants.
Moreover, since even the family head and Madam could do nothing about the eldest miss, how would they dare to offend her?
"Miss, I'll accompany you to the Night King's residence," Chun Tao stepped forward and said.
"No need. Go with Nanny Xu to collect what rightfully belongs to me. If the second branch disagrees, tell them I will personally collect it when I return from the Night King's residence," Luo Qingwu instructed.
Although her grandfather protected her, Madam Liu still found various ways to withhold what she deserved. Starting today, no one would dare take what was rightfully hers!
"Yes, Miss," Chun Tao nodded. She really liked this retaliatory side of her young lady.
Although she didn't know why she had suddenly changed like this, no matter what the young lady did, she would unconditionally support her.
Just as Luo Qingwu was about to leave the courtyard, she saw Luo Xueluan walking toward her, her gaze as if she wanted to devour her.
"Luo Qingwu, don't think that just because you've latched onto the Night King, the Crown Prince will marry you," Luo Xueluan stepped forward and said provocatively. She never expected the Night King to actually send someone to fetch this waste.
The Crown Prince?
Luo Qingwu sneered inwardly. The original host liked that scumbag, but she herself disdained him. Even if he begged her to marry him in tears, she wouldn't.
"If he doesn't marry me, it won't be your turn either."
Luo Xueluan took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in her heart, and smiled. "Who knows what will happen in the future?"
The implication was: you can't predict it either.
Luo Qingwu moved closer to her. Luo Xueluan, intimidated by her imposing aura, took a few steps back, her expression guarded. Her injuries hadn't healed yet.
"If I fail to cure the Night King's illness and he blames the Luo family, are you sure you'll still have a future?" she said with a half-smile, then left triumphantly.
Luo Xueluan clenched her fists beneath her sleeves, her resentful gaze seeming to bore bloody holes into Luo Qingwu's back. When had Qingwu gained the ability to infuriate people to death?
