"Ah! Go away, don't kill me! Don't kill me..."

Looking at the bottomless cliff below her feet, a woman struggled desperately, with a hint of obvious fear flashing in her turbid eyes.

She was being strangled by a woman in blue with a cold look in her eyes.

"With your strength, you still dream of becoming the daughter of a marquis?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she pushed hard, and the thin body instantly fell into the abyss behind it with a scream.

“Aaaaaaaaaaa…”

“Dead! They’re all finally dead! Hahahahaha…”

The wind howled violently at the edge of the cliff, and the sharp sound of the wind covered up the shrill screams, leaving only a burst of crazy laughter.

"What's going on? I'm not dead?"

When Murong Ling'er regained consciousness, she found herself lying in the icy river. She was completely stunned. She remembered that she had blew up her soul to save humanity and vanished into thin air! How could she still be alive?

Just as she was in a daze, a chaotic and painful memory suddenly flooded into her mind. After a moment, she understood that she had been reborn in a borrowed body and had traveled through time again.

The original owner of this body has the same name and surname as herself. She is the daughter of a farmer in the State of Zhao. Because her parents favored boys over girls, the original owner suffered long-term abuse. When she was thirteen years old, the original owner disappeared overnight, became unexpectedly pregnant, and became insane. She was kicked out of the house and gave birth to a child alone.

For five years, the mother and son suffered from hunger and cold, often on the brink of life and death.

Perhaps because the original owner was sometimes lucid and sometimes crazy, her memory was intermittent, and that bizarre pregnancy experience was a large blank. The original owner's last memory was the scene of being pushed off the cliff by the woman in blue on the top of the snow-capped mountain.

Seeing this, Murong Ling'er sighed softly.

"Since you have given me a chance to be reborn, I will live well for you. From now on, I am you, and I will definitely help you avenge the suffering and hatred you have endured.

Murong Ling'er climbed out of the icy river. It was deep winter, and her wet clothes stuck to her body, making her shiver with cold. She looked up and suddenly found something floating on the river.

Murong Linger took a closer look and saw that it was a man. His face was handsome, his eyes closed, and the silk and satin on his body were embroidered with intricate patterns. Clearly, this was an ancient nobleman.

Realizing this, Murong Ling'er's eyes lit up. She had just arrived and was penniless. This man was already dead, so his property naturally belonged to her.

Thinking of this, she jumped into the water and swam towards the corpse. After a while, she dragged the corpse to the shore.

Just as Murong Ling'er was about to loot the property, her eyes suddenly fell on the jade-white waist belt around the male corpse's waist. Tied to the waist belt was a valuable mutton-fat jade pendant.

"Huh? This jade pendant looks familiar."

"No, this is mine..."

As she spoke, Murong Yun'er excitedly pulled off the jade pendant and was about to take a closer look when suddenly, someone grabbed her wrist tightly.

She looked up suddenly and was caught off guard by a pair of captivating eyes.

Chu Lingfeng opened his eyes and saw a beautiful woman holding his jade pendant! Without a second thought, he reached out and subdued her.

Murong Ling'er didn't expect that this man would come back to life, especially at this critical moment, but she reacted quickly and slapped the man with her backhand.

Chu Lingfeng didn't expect that this woman actually knew martial arts. When the fierce palm came, he immediately met it. When the two palms touched, his five fingers were suddenly grasped by the other party.

After getting the jade pendant, Murong Linger used her clever strength to break free from the big palm. After being freed from the restraint, she immediately put the jade pendant away.

Chu Lingfeng was outmaneuvered and was stunned for a moment before his face darkened. Because he was poisoned and couldn't use his internal energy, he shouted in a deep voice.

"Hand over the jade pendant!"

Murong Ling'er naturally could not hand over this space jade pendant that had accompanied her for two lifetimes. Seeing this man chasing her relentlessly, she suddenly had an idea and began to question him.

"I saved your life. Is that life-saving grace not worth a jade pendant?"

Chu Lingfeng then remembered that he was ambushed by a killer on the top of the mountain during the day and accidentally fell off the cliff. It turned out that it was this girl who saved him.

After realizing that the girl in front of him was his savior, his tone softened a lot.

"Miss, you saved me. I will definitely reward you handsomely. However, this jade pendant is my engagement gift and means a lot to me. Could you please return it to me?"

Upon hearing this, Murong Ling'er was stunned. No wonder he reacted so strongly just now. She thought he was stingy and reluctant to part with the jade pendant. It turned out that the jade pendant was his token of love.

Unfortunately, she still couldn't return it. Thinking of this, Murong Ling'er coughed lightly and her tone softened.

"Master Chu, I'm truly sorry. This jade pendant is extremely important to me. If your fiancée blames me, I beg you to forgive me."

When Chu Lingfeng heard the word "fiancée", his thoughts paused and his eyes became deep.

Seeing the man's unusual expression, Murong Ling'er was worried that he would rob the jade pendant. Now that she had changed her body, her dantian was empty, and she was able to escape just now only because he was caught off guard.

Thinking of this, Murong Ling'er turned around and ran. Her running immediately alarmed the stunned Chu Lingfeng.

Chu Lingfeng hesitated for a moment, then flew up and chased after her.

While running, Murong Ling'er suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind her. In a panic, she fell forward and fell directly into the river. The moment she entered the water, it was freezing cold and she couldn't help shivering.

"It's so cold!"

Chu Lingfeng watched helplessly as the woman escaped from his hands. The poison in his body could no longer be suppressed due to the internal force he had just used. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell from mid-air.

Hearing the sound of someone falling into the water, Murong Ling'er turned her head and saw Chu Lingfeng's legs covered with wounds, which looked eerie and scary.

"this...?"

Murong Ling'er widened her eyes in surprise. She didn't expect that this man was a disabled person.

Chu Lingfeng fell to the ground and the poison in his body took effect. He was in unbearable pain. He forced himself to take out something from his sleeve and threw it into the sky.

The flare exploded in the dark night sky.

Seeing the flare exploding in the air, Murong Linggan'er secretly said in her heart, "Oh no! This guy is actually calling for help!" She no longer cared about being surprised and immediately used her hands and feet to swim forward desperately.

A moment later, with a splash, a figure flew out of the water and landed on the riverbank first. Immediately afterwards, several more figures rushed out of the river.

As soon as the Chu family's secret guards landed, they saw Chu Lingfeng lying on the riverbank, and they ran over quickly.

"Sir!"

Seeing them finally arriving, Chu Lingfeng endured the pain of the poison and said in a deep voice, "My jade pendant has been stolen. Go after them!"
