Chapter 42

  As soon as she stepped inside the gate, a magnificent courtyard appeared before her. The sign above the door read "Haitang Residence" in flowing script. On either side of the entrance stood stone carvings of qilin, guarding the doorway. Upon entering, her eyes immediately fell upon two sakura trees over three meters tall, their pink blossoms swaying gently in the breeze, adding a touch of joy to the courtyard.

  A row of phoenix trees stood along the east wall of the courtyard, lined up vertically. The surrounding walls were half a meter high and were filled with all kinds of flowers and grasses. At the northernmost end, closest to the inner side, were several purple lilacs, blooming with small red flowers. Near the road was a variety of hanging baskets, with green leaves cascading down from the wall to the ground. A potted cactus stood proudly upright. At the southern end were some beautiful little grasses, elegant and lovely.

  To the west of the road, near the south, there are some bamboo shoots standing upright. In the center of the road, there is a small lake with clear water reflecting the scenery on both banks. The small fish in the lake swim leisurely, and the lake divides the road into two parts, which complement each other and add to the serenity of the courtyard.

  But, such a beautiful courtyard, the more Feng Qi walked in, the more doubts arose. Is this elegant and comfortable place really where she, an newcomer to Fengyuan Academy, should live? Did that Qing You guy take a wrong turn or arrange the wrong place?

  Her mind was filled with guesses, but no answers. A breathtakingly beautiful peony suddenly appeared before her eyes without warning, and a fragrant breeze blew in, making the beauty before her even more mesmerizing.

  What kind of place is this? How can there be so many begonias?

  However, the beautiful scenery only lasted for a moment, and then there was a voice that destroyed the beauty!

  "Feng Qi Xie, you're still not dead? Your life is really big!"

  As soon as she heard the voice, Feng Qiujian's whole body stiffened, gritted her teeth and raised her eyes, and indeed saw the figure that should have disappeared in her previous life reappear before her eyes.

  At that moment, Feng Qiyue's eyebrows furrowed tightly, her heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a knife, with fresh blood dripping, the pain was palpable, and her thoughts were in disarray. What on earth was going on? Hadn't she already reincarnated and reborn into another body? Why could he still see her?

  "What brings you here?"

  "Haha!" Feng Fei suddenly burst into laughter, (Feng Qiye's past life sister was indeed Feng Fei.) Her eyebrows slightly raised, gazing at Feng Qiye with a mischievous look: "Not only am I here? Xuan Ge is also here."

  Feng Qi's eyes widened in shock, her gaze shifted slightly, and indeed, she saw Long Shaoyuan, dressed in a Western suit, appear before her. She suddenly looked pained, her entire face twisted in agony!

  Her fiancé, the one who betrayed her and handed her a knife, actually had the nerve to appear in front of her again. Is this provocation? Moreover, the two people were still very affectionate, leaning against each other, with disdainful gazes at Feng Qiye, their lips curled into sinister smiles. Feng Qiye's expression changed drastically, staring at them with eyes wide open in anger.

  "You this pair of adulterers, what more do you want to do?" Feng Qi's angry roar was on the verge of losing control.

  "What are you doing?" Feng Fei raised an eyebrow, her hands ambiguously brushing against Long Shaoxuan's chest: "Of course I'm here to see you! See how this defeated underling who doesn't even want his fiancée is living!"

  Don't want her? Defeated general?

  Feng Qi's breathing was stifled, but she still glared at her with an unyielding gaze: "No matter what, I am your own sister, how can you treat me like this?"

  "Haha! Dear sister?" Feng Feifei's face suddenly became extremely ferocious: "From childhood, all the glory was concentrated on you, and everyone's attention followed you. In school, you even absorbed all the boys' attention. When I'm with you, no one notices me. You're always the center of attention, while I'm completely ignored. Why is that? Is it just because our parents chose you as their successor when we were young? If so, then I'll destroy everything you have! Let's see who will still care about you when you're no longer the president of the Feng Corporation, haha! Haha...!"

  Feng Qi's evil heart suddenly had a chill, she had thought of thousands and hundreds of reasons why her sister would harm her, but she never could have imagined it would be this one!

  "I'm your sister, if you really care about the position of CEO, I can..."

  "Feng Qiye, you've always been a hypocrite. From childhood to adulthood, I've never considered you my sister. You're the mastermind who took everything away from me, my arch-nemesis. You deserve to die! That's why I sent my boyfriend to your side, wanting not only for you to lose the Feng Corporation but also to lose your heart. In the end, you'll watch with your own eyes as your loved one stabs a cold dagger into your body. How does that feel? It must be exhilarating! Haha!" Feng Feifei's gaze was crazed.

  Feng Qi's eyes turned blood red as he gritted his teeth: "Feng Fei Fei..."

  "Don't shout so loudly, no matter what, Xuan Ge will never be yours." Feng Fei Fei laughed smugly: "I just want to let you see how your beloved fiancé loves me in bed, haha..."

  As she crooked her finger, the so-called fiancé actually leaned in and gave her a passionate kiss, with his large hands roaming over her chest and body, stripping off her clothes one by one.

  A sharp pain in her heart, as the clothes on her body fell, a live spring palace was about to be staged. Feng Qiuxia finally couldn't bear it anymore, her slender hand moved, and the ice-blue sword appeared with a clang. These two adulterers, shameless bastards, Heaven had let her meet them again, if she didn't take revenge, she would be sorry for herself. Feng Qiuxia's eyes turned blood red, her long sword swooped, and her body leaped forward: "Go to hell! I'll kill you, kill you all, send you all to the underworld!"

  But Feng Fei and Long Shaoxuan stood still, staring at her without blinking or dodging, their eyes full of disdain and contempt, the corners of their mouths filled with mockery.

  "Feng Qi suddenly went berserk: 'You bastards, I treated you with such sincerity and kindness, yet you want to kill me? Kill me? Go die, go die...'"

  A crazy burst of chaotic chopping, but when she opened her eyes, the two were still standing there, tauntingly staring at her: "Haha! Feng Qiexia, with your skills, you can't even defeat me. Now the company has been snatched by me! Love has been snatched by me! Even your fiancé has been snatched by me! What's the point of living for a useless person like you? You might as well be dead!"

  It's better to just die! It's better to just die! It's better to just die...

  This sentence was like a demonic melody that pierced Feng Qiyue's soul, constantly echoing in her mind...

  As the words kept echoing in her mind, her eyes gradually became dazed, and even her thoughts began to wander. She muttered to herself: "Yes! What's the point of living with such a useless self? I might as well just die! Die! Why not just return, return..."

  Slowly, the long sword in her hand moved towards her own neck, but her eyes still gazed at Long Xuan who stood beside her, silent and unspoken. With a hint of expectation, she asked softly: "Did... you ever love me?"

  Even if it's just a little bit, that's good enough! Even if it's just one sentence deceiving her, she still wants to hear it from his mouth. At least there's an answer, right?

  But "Long Shao Xuan" remained silent, gazing at her quietly, lightly embracing Feng Fei Fei without a word.

  Feng Qi's heart ached! It was throbbing violently, and that Feng Fei Fei continued to say: "Xuan Ge has never loved you, he just listened to my orders and intentionally got close to you. Don't you understand now? Xuan Ge doesn't love you, doesn't love you..."

  Don't you love me?

  Phoenix Seven's evil heart skipped a beat, feeling an inexplicable pain.

  "Is it painful?" Feng Fei's voice was filled with temptation: "As long as you die, you will be forever free from suffering and will never suffer again!"

  "Dead! Then liberated! Will it no longer suffer?" Feng Qi asked with a dull expression.

  "Right! Die! You won't suffer anymore! You'll forget the betrayal of your own sister, the heartlessness of your fiancé that brought you pain, and you'll forget all the unhappiness. So hold the sword in your hand tightly, aim at your neck, and with one swift motion, you'll be free forever! You'll never suffer again!" Feng Fei Fei continued to bewitch her mind with gentle words, soft as a feather.

  It was that feather-like gentle voice, lightly brushing against Feng Qi's heart which was in so much pain it felt like it was going to suffocate. A strong urge to get rid of the suffocating pain struck her, so at that moment she gritted her teeth, steeled herself and swung the long sword in her hand horizontally downwards.

  Just as her long sword cut down, a red figure suddenly flashed before her eyes, with narrow and long phoenix eyes flashing, looking at her with such deep sadness and sorrow, her heart inexplicably hurt, and she felt reluctant to part.

  Who is he? Why can't she remember for a moment?

  But at this moment she couldn't think of so many things, because the long sword had already cut her slender neck.

  "Master, what's wrong with you? Wake up, wake up..."

  A sudden urgent call made Feng Qiniu's soul stir, and her lost consciousness slowly cleared up. She saw her current behavior and was shocked, her slender hand quickly turned, the sword narrowly escaped from her neck, although it avoided the vital point, but it left a deep blood mark. At the same time, a soft "hmm" sound came, she suddenly felt a chill in her eyes, stretched out her hand to pull off the man-eating Blood Vine on her neck and flung it away, then pulled hard, followed by an "ah" cry of surprise, an unknown object fell to the ground. At the same time, Feng Qiniu's body flashed, and she pressed down: "You're dead, you actually dared to play tricks on me, I'll make you pay tonight."

  As soon as she finished speaking, the long sword in her hand chopped down hastily.

  "Don't kill me, don't kill me! I'm the servant of your master, you can't kill me!" The man struggled rapidly, but the bloodthirsty vines had wrapped around his entire body, rendering him immobile. As he saw Feng Qi's eyes turn blood red and his face twist into a grotesque grimace, the long sword stabbed towards him, and he let out a loud cry.

  Master? Servant boy? What's this thing?

  Feng Qi's consciousness, shrouded in hatred and pain, regained a bit of clarity. She looked at the young girl who had been trampled to death beneath her feet, and her thoughts gradually returned. As she glanced around, she saw that the beautiful sea of peach blossoms was now in disarray, with scattered petals and leaves everywhere. But where were Feng Feifei and her fiancé, Long Shaoyuan?

  What's going on here?

  Feng Qiexie's eyes narrowed, and as her sanity returned, she realized that this little brat was none other than Qing Yu, who had brought her here. Thinking of the fragrance she had smelled when entering the Haitang Forest, Feng Qiexie suddenly understood everything! Her heart burning with anger, she pounced on the little brat, punching and kicking him while cursing: "I'll let you know that at such a young age, you're not learning well, thinking of harming people. Don't you know this can get someone killed?"

  "Ah! Sorry, I... I was wrong! I'll never dare again! Spare me, spare me..."

  As Feng Qiyue's brutality escalated, Qing You was beaten until he wailed loudly. Although he had a strong sense of pride and didn't want to beg for mercy from this dead girl, when he looked up at her eyes that were slightly red and icy cold, as if they came from hell, he knew very clearly that if he didn't show weakness, he would definitely be beaten to death by her.

  So for his own future a good day is waiting for him, he also very unmanly begged for mercy!

  It's better to save one's life than to care about the cost of bone gas!

  Angrily kicking him twice, Feng Qi's angry voice said: "Lead the way ahead, take me to rest. This time if you dare play any tricks again, I'll kill you."

  "I don't dare! I don't dare!"

  What a miserable life Qing Yu is living! Ever since he met that girl, he's been plagued by misfortune and hasn't had a good day. Now he's finally realized that she's the bane of his existence. Who knows if this is retribution for the favoritism and arrogance he showed off as a young master?

  Feng Qi's slender hand moved slightly, recalling the man-eating Blood Vine that had wrapped around him, and once again coiling it around his neck.

  Qīng Yōu was staring at the blood vine in shock, wondering what it was. Just now when it was wrapped around him, he felt as if it were alive, and the feeling of being stared at like food made his heart tremble.

  "Are you still not getting up? Are you pretending to be dead for me?"

  His body moved, and it was a pain that could take his life, but under Feng Qi's overbearing power, he didn't dare not to comply. He got up from the ground with a hum, looking at the courtyard, wanting to say something. However, under Feng Qi's icy gaze, he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

  Forget it! He's also helpless, and the young master will definitely forgive him.

  He limped forward with a gait, but every step felt like a thousand pounds, and now he's in trouble! Later on, he really didn't know how to explain it to the young master!

  "It's... it's right here!"

  Before he could say anything, Feng Qiuye's figure flashed and he ran away in a puff of smoke! Feng Qiuye was left staring blankly, heaven! At that speed, which looked like someone who was seriously injured? Had she gone too easy on him just now?

  Shaking his head, Feng Qi didn't suspect anything and pushed open the door to walk in.

  With a glance around, Feng Qi thought that the treatment in Fengyuan was even better! A student could actually live in such a good place, it's really rare!

  The table and chair inside, a screen enclosure is very exquisite. Putting down the things in her hand, she sat at the edge of the table, poured herself a glass of water and gulped it down. Only then did she realize that her whole body was soaked! A gust of cool wind blew over, making her feel chilled to the bone.

  Looking back on everything that happened in the sea of peach blossoms just now, although it was my own illusion, I couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. My own sister harming me like that, could it really be for those reasons?

  A faint sigh, no matter what the reason, it's all in the past! It has already become her previous life, hasn't it? But... that scene in the sea buckthorn forest, all the memories were brought out, why is it still so heart-wrenching?

  Long Shaoyuan, her so-called fiancé, still has such a profound impact on her?

  Thinking of everything just now, if it wasn't for Binglan's timely cry, she would probably already be...

  A chill ran over her head, and before her eyes, a stunning figure flashed by. At this moment, she was very clear that the figure who had just appeared in front of her in the last moment of her life was who?

  Drunk! Can she trust him?

  Thinking of Huo Zui, her heart was a bit disturbed, and there was also a demon living in his body that could devour him at any time. She couldn't just sit back and do nothing!

  At the thought of possibly losing him forever, her heart tightened and she got up with some annoyance, just thinking of finding a place to wash up. As a result, she unexpectedly discovered that there was another door in this room. She curiously pushed it open, and a mist of water floated in. Feng Qiye was delighted to discover that there was actually an independent bathroom inside, which was great!

  He grabbed a piece of clothing and rushed in.

  Just after entering, it was another unexpected surprise. This is not only a bathroom, but also a hot spring resort, which has been transformed into a fake mountain landscape. The spring water "gurgles" constantly, bubbling up, and at first sight, it makes people feel great.

  Earlier in the sea of peach blossoms, Feng Qiujie had broken out in a cold sweat. As soon as he saw the hot spring, he hastily took off his clothes and jumped in.

  The warm spring water enveloped her body, Feng Qiuxia felt so comfortable that she almost sighed, finally leaning lightly against the smooth jade stone wall, slowly closing her eyes, while the residual Phoenix blood in her body silently circulated, repairing the Xuanqi she had just consumed, and her consciousness entered the Sea of Consciousness.

  After a flash of light, she found herself in another empty space, and the golden figure was still reclining on a large golden chair with an air of laziness.

  Feng Qi saw her and his entire demeanor relaxed, slowly sliding to the ground, hugging his knees, and softly sighing: "I almost died just now! Do you know?"

  The other party, of course, would not respond to her, and she didn't need her to answer either. It was as if she were talking to herself, saying: "That sea buckthorn forest emits a special fragrance that can bewilder people's minds, and at the same time, it also evokes the heart demons hidden in my heart. I still can't forget everything from my past life! It's still so heartbreaking."

  Long Shaoyuan, her fiancé from her past life, didn't he truly love her at all?

  A chill ran down her spine, she couldn't get an answer.

  ……

  I didn't feel like it yesterday and couldn't write anything, sorry!
