Chapter 432 - The History of Red Sleeve (2/2)

“Ah—” Red Sleeve was pinned firmly on the rock wall, covered with blood. With hair disheveled, she kept screaming like a devil. Her voice echoed continuously in the deep valley, which scared everyone present.

Luo Shangyan was transferring energy to help Xiao Chen heal his injuries. Xiao Chen looked up and saw the sun was already high in the sky. It was about a quarter to noon. At this time, the Yang Qi was at its height. But after 11:45, the Yang Qi would become the Yin Qi. The entire Miasma Mountain Range would be filled with the Yin Qi and Malicious Grudge. Seeing this, Xiao Chen was afraid that they would be in big trouble, so he said, “Gather Yang Qi. Let’s kill her!”

Upon hearing his words, everyone started to act without any hesitation because now the Yang Qi was at its peak. Without reservation, each of them put forward their most powerful exclusive skills to attack Red Sleeve.

Being fixed on the rock wall by Tianyi Zi’s six swords, Red Sleeve was unable to move. But her dreary cries and screams still lingered in everyone’s ears. A moment later, her head sank down after all her strength was exhausted.

In the distance, the dozens of people from the Corpse Refinery Sect were frightened out of their wits long ago and went to hide behind several big rocks.

A breeze passed. Everyone stopped attacking. Suddenly, after a ripple of rueful laughers, Red Sleeve slowly raised her head again. But her face was pale. She looked frail. Glancing at everyone around, she said in a sad voice, “Why, why must all of you kill me… I have never thought of dominating the three realms, nor did I want to live forever. I only want to be with Qing Yuan…”

When she spoke the last few words, two lines of tears rolled out of her eyes. This moment, she didn’t look like an undead zombie at all. She was obviously a living person who had lots of feelings. She choked. “I was just a maid at that year. Since childhood, I was bought and sold repeatedly until I met Qing Yuan. Only after he brought me back to Lu’s Manor did I finally understand that I was a person instead of an item that was doomed to be passed from one owner to another.”

“The Lu family is a cultivation family, but Qing Yuan loved literature since his childhood. During the daytime, I rubbed the ink-stick for him. At night, when he was reading, I stayed by his side, cutting candles and adding incense for him…”

As she spoke this, Red Sleeve’s face was full of tenderness and love. While laughing tenderly, she said, “After staying with each other for a long time, Qing Yuan and I fell in love in secret. That period was the happiest time in my life. That night, I gave my virginity to Qing Yuan. We vowed solemnly never to separate from each other… BUT!”

Suddenly, Red Sleeve’s expression became very scary, and her eyes were full of resentment. She severely rebuked, “Qing Yuan’s father, Lu Xinghe, knew we were in love! However, Lu Xinghe detested me because I was humble. He feared that I would ruin the Lu family’s reputation. One night, he even sent someone to kill me. The killer took me out of the city, and he… He raped… “Speaking of that, she gritted her teeth in hatred. Tears of blood kept flowing out of her eyes.

After taking a deep breath, Red Sleeve continued, “Later on, that man did not kill me only because he thought I was dead. Then he casually threw me into a mountain gully. On that very night, it rained. Raindrops fell on me continuously. It was so cold. I knew I was still alive, but I felt too shameful to see Qing Yuan again. However, he found me at last. We had been hiding in the mountain for half a month. But still, Lu Xinghe found us and took us back to the Lu family…”

At the moment, the wind stopped. Everyone was silent, listening to her last cry.

“Qing Yuan threatened Lu Xinghe with his life, so Lu Xinghe had to give in. But as a distinguished family, the Lu family had to obey many complicated manners. They insisted that I must marry into the Lu family in an open, correct manner. Thus, they sent me to an influential family in the city. I was asked to act as the Young Lady of this family. They held a large birthday party for me on July 7th, my birthday, to inform all the people in the city that I was a Young Lady from a big family, not some humble maid…”

Red Sleeve was already speaking with tears in her eyes. One word at a time, she sobbed out, “That day was also the day that Qing Yuan came to marry me. You don’t know how happy I was then… BUT!”

Red Sleeve’s eyes were full of rage. In furious anger, she said sternly, “But that day, two mysterious persons took me away! Then I underwent the bitterest ordeal in the world! Qing Yuan found that place, begging them in a hundred ways to let me go. But they, they beat him to death right in front of me! RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!”

“Ah!” As she spoke this, Red Sleeve seemed to be insane. Her eyes opened wide, and there were tears of blood flowing out. She screamed bitterly, “How could I be willing to live with such a consequence?! How could I die in peace with that?! That person, that person, she could not enter the Samsara, so she took my three souls and seven spirits. By using the Samsara Life-reversing Technique, she took my identity to cheat the Ghost Realm, which enabled her to enter into the Samsara again. But I, I can never enter the Samsara since then! I even lost my chance to meet Qing Yuan in my next life! How can I accept this result?! How can I die with such an everlasting regret?!”

The Rancorous Qi came! A current of heavy Rancorous Qi instantly filled the whole valley. It was the hatred that Red Sleeve could not rid herself of in the past three thousand years! Everyone felt a sudden shock in their hearts.

Xiao Chen trembled slightly, and his mind was in a mess. “To apply the Samsara Life-reversing Technique, one must have the same birthday and the same Destiny as the other. Red Sleeve, born on July 7th, has a Mystic Yin Body. If she wants to resurrect and enter the Samsara, she must find a person who was also born on July 7th and had a Mystic Yin Body. Then… The person who took her away that year must also have been born on July 7th and had a Mystic Yin Body!”

There seemed to be a thunder sounded in Xiao Chen’s mind. Suddenly, he had no idea what to do with his hands and feet. Seeing that his face looked terrible, Luo Shangyan helped him up and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”

Xiao Chen shook his hand, “No… Nothing…” But in his mind, he thought. “Weiyang… Weiyang, she would never do such a thing. Someone must have been behind all of this. Someone else played the tricks!”

Red Sleeve laughed in a deep voice. Her voice sounded a bit gloomy. “Later on, I died… But I still held a breath of Rancorous Qi, which brought me back from the dead! And then, it made me immortal and extremely powerful! I wanted to revenge! I was determined to go back and kill all those who betrayed me, so I slaughtered the whole Lu family and permanently imprisoned Lu Xinghe’s soul…”

Upon hearing this, everyone present could not help shivering. The Malicious Grudge could fill a person’s heart with hatred, which was horrifying! Red Sleeve continued, “But, but I found out that my memory has been gradually losing after I lost my soul. But I don’t want to forget Qing Yuan. I will be with Qing Yuan in the next life! This time, I was blessed. I met two persons who claimed themselves to be from the Administration of Heaven. They said they could give me a soul and keep my memory forever!”

The Administration of Heaven! The most mysterious soul organization of the Violet Manor! Everyone was startled.

Red Sleeve smiled bitterly. “But I didn’t even have a soul. What could I trade with them? I begged them to give me some time. Then I came up with a plan. Since the Rancorous Qi could bring people back from death and give them mighty strength, why could I use it? Therefore, I founded the Corpse Refinery Sect!”
