Chapter 1: Volume 1, Chapter 1: Go to Hell

"Go to hell—"

A roar, coming from the depths of her soul, erupted from Yun Qiyue's mouth.

It was a sentence that should have been full of momentum, yet it sounded like nothing more than delirious babbling.

As this sound escaped, Yun Qiyue's consciousness gradually returned. The pain in her chest and internal organs, along with a strange, eerie heat, was enough to drive her mad.

"Damn it—"

The unbearable sensation made Yun Qiyue curse under her breath. The sound wasn't loud, but in the silence, it felt jarring.

Before she could even open her eyes, which felt as heavy as lead, she felt her neck tighten. A sensation of suffocation washed over her.

The chaos in her mind vanished instantly. Yun Qiyue snapped her eyes open, only to see a stunningly beautiful man in red, his eyes bloodshot, staring down at her.

Her neck was gripped firmly in his hand, and there was a very real danger of it being snapped at any moment.

Daring to hurt her? Unforgivable!

At this thought, Yun Qiyue's gaze sharpened. Her hand instinctively reached for her waist, but she grasped at nothing.

Yun Qiyue was slightly stunned. She looked down... Huh? When did she end up in the water?

And, wasn't she betrayed by her partner during a mission, surrounded, and then taken down with them?

Why was she still alive, in the water, and being choked by a peerless beauty?

More importantly, why were the silver needles she always carried gone?

Her confusion lasted only a fleeting moment; her top priority was survival.

Without her needles, she still had her hands. Without a second thought, Yun Qiyue reached out to gouge the man's eyes.

However, the man seemed to have anticipated this. Just as her fingers were about to reach his eyes, her hand was caught.

It felt like a gentle grip, yet she had the illusion that her hand was being crushed and deformed.

This was an expert—an absolute expert!

Yun Qiyue felt a jolt of alarm!

Her mind raced, searching for a way to break his hold.

Suddenly, her gaze fell upon the jade hairpin atop the man's head.

Although she was briefly puzzled as to why this man was dressed in ancient attire, she couldn't afford to care about that now.

Without hesitation, Yun Qiyue raised her foot under the water and kicked toward the man's "little brother."

Ye Lanjue frowned, his anger reaching its peak.

He had already placed a barrier here and had his subordinates clear the area. He should have been able to suppress the poison in his body in peace, but this woman had suddenly fallen from the sky, interrupting everything and causing him to suffer a severe backlash, nearly causing him to go into Qi deviation.

And now, she was being so shameless!

There were some bottom lines that a woman must never cross. Enduring the excruciating pain in his body, Ye Lanjue raised his leg to block her—

Now!

Yun Qiyue's eyes lit up. She used her other hand to snatch the jade hairpin from the man's head, then, with a sharp gaze and a fast, precise, and ruthless movement, she plunged the hairpin into one of his acupuncture points!

"Ugh—"

Ye Lanjue only felt a numbness in his body, his eyes filled with rage; the originally scarlet color of his pupils became even more eerily and bewitchingly red.

Meeting those cold eyes, Yun Qiyue felt both alarmed and guilty.

What kind of monster was this man? She had struck that point with such force; anyone else would have collapsed in a single breath, so why was he still standing?

Just as Yun Qiyue was considering whether to increase the pressure, the man fell into the water with a "splash."

With her neck finally free, Yun Qiyue greedily inhaled the fresh air.

But when she looked up, she froze.

Where were the steel and concrete skyscrapers?

Before her eyes lay nothing but pristine, natural scenery, shrouded in mist, as beautiful as a fairyland.

But, where was this?

Just as she was wondering, a strange and chaotic memory flooded into her mind.

She had transmigrated.

This was the Tianqi Continent, the Donglin Kingdom.

The original owner was also named Yun Qiyue. Her father, Yun Tian, was the number one general of the Donglin Kingdom, and her grandfather was the Marquis of Wuan.

As the only legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion, and with her mother Mu Qingwan's favor with the current Empress Dowager, Yun Qiyue had been betrothed to the Crown Prince at birth, reaching the pinnacle of life. How many families envied such good fortune?

However, the fortunate Yun Qiyue had lost her mother at a young age and was born mentally disabled.

Even so, Yun Qiyue was deeply loved by Yun Tian and the rest of the Yun family, and the Emperor had never proposed canceling the engagement.

But good times didn't last. Three years ago, General Yun Tian died on the battlefield, his body never recovered. The Old Marquis went to find his son's remains and had been gone for three years without returning.

With the two people who loved her most gone, the Yun family members who had once doted on her changed their faces. They not only seized her General's Mansion but also subjected her to all kinds of humiliation.

Only Yun Yarou, the second legitimate daughter of the first branch, treated her as always, showing her care and concern. Even when Yun Yarou accidentally caused a palm-sized black poison spot to appear on the original owner's face, the original owner never blamed her.

Even though this poison spot made her despised by everyone.

And last night, Yun Yarou had lured her to a cliff outside the city under the guise of going out to play, killed her, and thrown her off the cliff. But—

Yun Qiyue's gaze turned cold. She placed her fingers on her pulse, her eyes deepening with chill.

The original owner's true cause of death: poisoning!

So, who exactly had poisoned the original owner?

"Don't worry, I will avenge you," Yun Qiyue whispered to herself.

Whether it was Yun Yarou, the person who poisoned her, or the members of the Yun family who bullied her, she would not let any of them go!

Since she had taken over this body, she would naturally take on the hatred as well. She never wanted to owe anyone anything.

But she had to deal with the wound on her chest and the poison in her body, or death would still be waiting for her.

With this in mind, Yun Qiyue climbed onto the shore.

Fortunately, there were plenty of medicinal herbs here; she could treat her wounds with just a few of them.

However, this poison—

Instinctively, Yun Qiyue placed her left hand on her body.

The next moment, Yun Qiyue was both surprised and delighted.

She was delighted because her "Ghost Hand," known as a human diagnostic instrument, had followed her here.

She was the "Ghost Doctor" of the Special Agent Division, and she was called that precisely because of this Ghost Hand. As long as she touched a human body and sensed with her heart, she could diagnose any ailment.

She was surprised because she couldn't detect what the poison in her body was.

She only felt that it couldn't kill her for the time being, yet it was undeniably a lethal poison.

It was very strange and contradictory.

While thinking this, Yun Qiyue's gaze instinctively drifted toward the pool.

When her eyes swept over the water, her body suddenly stiffened.

She—she had forgotten about the handsome man!

What a sin!

Before she had the original owner's memories, she might have wanted to kill him, after all, he had choked her, hadn't he?

But after gaining the memories, she realized she was actually in the wrong.

She vaguely remembered that when she was thrown off the cliff, she had landed right on top of the man, and he had vomited blood... If it were her, she would be angry enough to kill, too.

Especially since he was such a handsome man; if he really died by her hand, wouldn't that be a waste of a heavenly treasure?

Thinking this, Yun Qiyue didn't even care about the wounds she had just treated, and with a "splash," she jumped back into the water...

After using all her strength to pull the man out of the water and checking him with her Ghost Hand, Yun Qiyue felt surprised, guilty, and frustrated all at once.

She was surprised that after being unconscious in the water for so long, the man was still alive.

She felt guilty because she realized the man had a type of poison in his body that seemed to be triggering a Qi deviation because it had been interrupted.

As for who had interrupted him—Yun Qiyue rubbed her nose guiltily.

It seemed it was her.

As for the frustration, it was also related to the poison; it was another type that her Ghost Hand couldn't identify.

Could it be that her Ghost Hand had malfunctioned along with her transmigration?

Her gaze couldn't help but fall on the man's face. Looking at his god-like, handsome features, Yun Qiyue temporarily cast aside her doubts. She couldn't help but swallow hard, a strange restlessness rising within her, making the already strange heat in her body even more intense. Her hand, too, instinctively reached toward the man's chest... ===== CHAPTER 2 =====
