Chapter 1751: Chapter 1729: Feng Ling and Shengge's Past Life_1 Chapter 1751: Chapter 1729: Feng Ling and Shengge's Past Life_1 “What happened between you and him in your past life?”
True Master Lingxue sensed the key point from her sobbing, and asked tentatively after a moment's thought, “Why do you think you hurt him?”
“That year, Shengge had her coming-of-age ceremony…”
Mu Qilin seemed lost in thought, unable to extricate herself from the memories of the past.
*
In her past life, Shengge was born into a prominent family.
Her grandfather held a high position in the court, and her father was a well-known young talent.
Her mother was gentle and virtuous, dutiful to her elders, and loving towards her children.
Shengge inherited her father's talents and her mother's beauty. From a young age, she was intelligent and unparalleled, greatly loved by her parents.
Unfortunately, fate was cruel, and for some reason, Shengge's family became a thorn in the Emperor's side.
An imperial decree brought ruin to their household.
Her grandfather died wronged, all male members were executed, and the female members were demoted to government slaves.
Her father was brutally killed, and her mother, unwilling to suffer humiliation, took her own life by hanging.
Before dying, her mother used the identity of a recently deceased girl to deceive the government officers and save her daughter.
A loyal Shadow Guard took young Shengge out of the Capital City and raised her under a false name in an obscure village in the mountains.
After ten years, Shengge grew into a beautiful and charming young woman, as pretty as a blooming flower, her beauty renowned far and wide.
However, she was not happy.
At sixteen, she never forgot the deep-rooted hatred for her parents' deaths.
In her nightmares, she would see the ghosts of her parents wandering before her, questioning her, asking why she had not avenged them.
She asked her adoptive father to teach her martial arts, training diligently.
Unfortunately, her aptitude was limited, and her lightness skill was passable while her swordsmanship was mediocre.
With her skills, attempting to assassinate the tyrannical ruler to avenge her parents was like a fool's dream.
She resented herself for being weak and was lost in her thoughts.
One deep night, she ran from home, intending to jump into an abyss to end her life and be free of her misery.
However, on that very night, she saw a shocking sight on top of a cliff.
A seven-colored divine light descended from the heavens and fell into the deep pool below the cliff.
She was drawn to the light, running towards the water, where she witnessed an awe-inspiring scene.
A wounded and unconscious seven-colored phoenix emerged from the bottom of the water and shattered into countless star-like spots.
In a blink of an eye, these stars converged again, transforming into a handsome youth.
The youth was unconscious, his body covered in crisscrossing injuries, with only a breath left in him.
Shengge was frightened for only a second; an idea flashed through her mind, and she made up her mind instantly.
She would save him at all costs.
Using the debt of saving his life, she would force him to help her exact her revenge.
*
During the Great War of Immortals and Demons, Feng Ling was injured and fell unconscious into the mortal world.
In his dazed state, he smelled the fragrance of a young girl, followed by the sweet, warm blood that flowed into his mouth.
He didn't know what had happened, only that he was incredibly weak, his eyelids too heavy to lift, and he unconsciously swallowed the warm blood.
He didn't know how long it took, but after losing much blood, his body began to recover with the nourishment of fresh blood.
As his consciousness cleared, he opened his eyes on a crisp, refreshing autumn morning.
“You woke up?”
The girl's overjoyed voice surprised him, making him shudder.
For a moment, his unfocused eyes saw her distinctly. The girl had a sweet, amiable, and slightly haggard appearance.
A human girl?
He looked at her for a few seconds, and his breathing paused, a bad feeling arising within him.
“You were injured and unconscious. Shengge went up the mountain to collect medicine and saw you fall into the water. She pulled you out and brought you to this cave to heal.”
