Chapter One Seventh Young Master
The winter at Qin City was usually very cold. The cold and hard stone stairs, the buildings, and the windmills formed this little southern city of the continent that was filled with a rural presence.
A large piece of land in the south of the city was used as a training ground for the elite of the Qin Clan, the rulers of this place.
Aofeng was laying on a recliner in her single room and staring dazedly at the smooth ceiling. Her legs swung down weakly. She seemed like a seriously ill person who had just been lifted out of water.
She had maintained this posture for one whole day and night. Even until now, she could not truly digest the additional memories that had suddenly appeared in her head.
After thinking continuously through the day and night, Aofeng finally gave a helpless groan. She had to admit that she truly had encountered the legendary transmigration.
She, Qin Aofeng, the best underground mercenary, had transmigrated, and this was an idiotic one!
Maybe it was because of the same name, Aofeng directly came onto this young female called Qin Aofeng. She managed to learn from the memories that this young female was a very timid person. Because of her lack of talent, she never had any confidence in herself from a young age. She was of the main bloodline of the enormous Qin Clan so she had a famous nickname in Qin City.
Qin Aofeng, the fifteen year old Qin City Good-for-nothing Seventh Young Master!
”She clearly is a girl, why did Big Brother have me dress as a male?” Narrowing her eyes, Aofeng's black eyes focused on an extremely old yet non-descript ring in her hand.
From the memories of this world's Qin Aofeng, this ring that she had worn from childhood was called a magic medium. Its ability was disguise, and it disguised her gender. It seemed to be a memento her mother had left behind. In her memories, that gentle and handsome older brother who treated her very well had warned her repeatedly not to take this ring off. Otherwise, it could cause a great calamity. Until yesterday when she had been beaten to death on the street, Aofeng had not taken it off.
Yes, this world's Qin Aofeng had died.
Two days ago, she had been surrounded and ganged up by a group of malicious Qin Family members. After crawling back to this dorm, she had closed her eyes forever.
Those people had beaten Aofeng not for a very good reason, but because the cousin called Qin Aoluo had always been jealous of her big brother, the genius Aotian. Ever since Big Brother left, he would come every few days to bully Aofeng.
The original Aofeng had been weak in personality and could not become a magister so she would always be injured all over. Only her youngest uncle loved and protected her. However, the original Aofeng was really too timid. After Qin Aoluo threatened her after being bullied, she didn't dare to tell her little uncle which caused Qin Aoluo and the cadet branch's Qin Kui to become even worse.
Two days ago, a group of guests of high status had come from the empire capital and stirred Qin Aoluo's memories of losing to Qin Aotian. Maybe it was because he had been ignored by these people that he had been so angry he gathered up a group of people, pulled Aofeng to a cold corner of Qin City and beat her to death.
When she thought of this, a cold and cruel murderousness flashed through Aofeng's eyes. Anyone that dared to attack her never had a good ending!
This body was hers now, and the memory of the two lives were so clear and fresh that even the feelings were similarly strong. Just like right now, she saw this ring, and missed her older brother Qin Aotian who was at the Qin Family home base far away in the empire capital. This was the emotions of the original Qin Aofeng.
While that Qin Aofeng's soul did not exist any longer, it could also be said that she was living in a different way.
The present Aofeng didn't want to think which person she really was. She could be said to be the product of the two merging, but her personality and soul was that of the underground mercenary from the twenty-first century. The timidity and cowardliness had left her. What replaced those was another kind of extreme ideology where she could kill someone's entire family if they provoked her!
Sighing, Aofeng stood up from the recliner. The wounds on her body had completely healed at some unknown time. She felt that this recovery speed was strange. However, it had seemed to be so from a young age. Even the most serious wounds would completely heal in two days. If it wasn't that the beating this time was so severe, she would have probably quickly recovered.
This Qin Aofeng's body really contained some secrets!
She found an exquisite long black robe from the drawers, and changed off the tattered clothing on her body. Aofeng had just dressed herself when shouting came from outside.
”Aofeng! Not good, not good! Qin Kui, Qin Kui, he's come again!”
The door opened with a ”crack” and a panicked face poked in. This youth was a cadet member of the Qin Family called Qin Fei. He lived next to Qin Aofeng and was one of Qin Aofeng's few friends. The youth who lived on the other side was called Qin Jiu, and was also someone protective of Aofeng.
While Aofeng had been a timid person, she had been extremely friendly. She was the seventh young master of the main branch after all, and she never lacked for any amenities. Whenever she got something good to eat or use, she would share with the two people living next to her. While these two did not dare to openly oppose Qin Aoluo who had great power, they truly thought of Aofeng as a friend.
It was because of her status as the ”seventh young master” that the two people from the cadet branches that weren't bad in talent would come every month to take ”protection feeds.” They had just taken their feeds two days ago, and they had come back today. They clearly knew that she had been beaten up by Qin Aoluo and was taking this time to come show off.
”He's come? That's great, I was just thinking to find him. This spares me some effort.” Her lips curling slightly in a cold and disdainful smile, Aofeng walked in front of the youth at the door and asked coolly, ”Where is he?”
”Uh, he just got to the training field outside, I saw him from an alley. Aofeng, go hide, if he can't find you, he'll leave after a while. Hm, Aofeng, what are you doing?” Qin Fei hurriedly said a bunch of words, and in the next moment, he saw Aofeng sweep with her exquisite long black robe, her shoes brus.h.i.+ng the ground as she elegantly walked out. He jumped in fright.
”Going out.” Aofeng said briskly without turning her head.
