Quick Wear: After Revenge, I and the Immortal King Renew Our Relationship
Chapter 211 Little Demon 1
When An Yan opened her eyes, she was alone in an antique-style room that didn't look very wealthy. "Tuanzi, receive the background and mission."
Tuanzi pulled up the data. "This is an ancient world where humans and demons coexist, but the two sides are in opposition to each other."
The original owner was named Hu Anyan, a beautiful, innocent and kind fox demon.
There is a Yao Village in the deepest part of Cuishan Mountain. The village chief has led various transformed little demons to live in seclusion here for generations. He knows that people in the outside world are treacherous and hate demons, so he detained them and forced them to practice well and not let them go out.
The original owner was lively by nature and did not want to practice boringly all the time. He often sneaked into the human world to play and was very yearning for the bustling markets and the talented men and beautiful women in the storybooks.
One time on the way to the human world, she met a very powerful demon catcher who wanted to kill her without any reason. The original owner's practice was intermittent, and she was beaten to her true form and was dying.
She tried her best to escape until she ran into a farmer's yard and was picked up by someone who mistook her for a dog.
The original owner's benefactor was a handsome little boy who not only gave her medicine and took good care of her, but was also a diligent scholar, completely fitting the image of a talented man in her mind.
The original owner didn't know whether staying here for a long time would cause trouble to his benefactor, so he left after three or four days. Before leaving, he made a tassel with his own fox fur and gave it to his benefactor.
This time he returned to Yao Village safely. The original owner deeply realized the importance of demonic power and practiced seriously, which made the village chief take notice of him.
Ten years later, after achieving some success, the original owner left Yao Village again, ready to repay her gratitude. Human lifespan is limited, and she feared that if she left too late, everyone would have been reincarnated.
Following Suizi's scent, she found a young scholar named Cheng Shuo, transformed herself into a beautiful girl, and met him by chance.
Upon learning that he had passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, but because of his poor family, his widowed mother had no one to take care of her and he was short of money for travel, he felt that this was a good opportunity to repay his gratitude, so he offered to lend him money and promised that he would take care of his mother.
Cheng Shuo gladly accepted and arranged their marriage.
After marriage, the two lived in harmony. Under the management of the original owner, Cheng Shuo could study without any worries. Unfortunately, he lacked talent and luck, and failed the exams repeatedly.
The original owner couldn't bear to see him dejected, so she returned to the village and fetched a magical herb that could sharpen one's hearing and eyesight, and open one's spiritual senses. With this herb's help, Cheng Shuo indeed became the top scorer in the imperial examination.
Cheng Shuo returned home in fine clothes and a galloping horse, ready to take them to the capital. However, he told the original owner that he had been chosen by the emperor as his consort, and she could only be his concubine and must serve the princess well.
The original owner naturally didn't want to do that. It was true that she wanted to repay the favor, but more importantly, she wanted to experience beautiful love, not to be his concubine and let him enjoy the happiness of having two wives.
The original owner was about to leave, but was trapped in the cage of the demon catcher Zhu Yaoshi. It turned out that Zhu Yaoshi had colluded with Cheng Shuo and wanted to kill her, and had made all the necessary preparations.
The original owner, already injured from taking the divine herb, was defeated and trapped, unable to escape. Zhu Yaoshi and Cheng Shuo disagreed on her affiliation.
Cheng Shuo heard that the Queen Mother was seriously ill and needed the demon heart as medicine, so he wanted to use it to please the Queen Mother and consolidate his position as the son-in-law.
Zhu Yaoshi wanted to get the location of Yao Village through her mouth and catch them all in one fell swoop, and said that he would let her go as long as she told him.
The original owner was a stubborn demon and would never betray the villagers just to survive.
The two reached an agreement to torture her and use the demon's blood to make medicine. Although the effect was not as good as the demon's heart, it could greatly alleviate the Queen Mother's condition.
The original owner was imprisoned in Cheng Shuo's husband's mansion. When the princess came one day, she seized the opportunity to let the princess find out the clues, making the princess think that Cheng Shuo had a mistress in his mansion. When the two of them had a big fight, she took the opportunity to escape.
However, she was tortured for a long time and was weak. Her escape was discovered. The princess learned her identity as a demon and imprisoned her in the palace dungeon as an antidote.
After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Shuo came to see her and told her that Zhu Yaoshi had destroyed the entire Yao Village because he had used her flesh and blood as a cover to deceive the other little demons.
The original owner could not accept this fact. Guilt and heartache made her lose her mind, and she chose to self-destruct her inner elixir to atone for her sins.
"The original owner's wish was to protect Yao Village and avenge Cheng Shuo, Zhu Yaoshi, and others, making them pay with their lives."
An Yan knew that now was the time when Cheng Shuo was the top scorer in high school, and he would be back in a month.
She drank a few sips of the stream water in the space, and most of her injuries healed. It was not worth it to get injured for that kind of person to get the magic herb.
"Mother Yan, you haven't gotten up yet? You haven't made breakfast yet. Do you want to starve me, your mother-in-law, to death?" A sarcastic voice came from outside the door. It was Mother Cheng.
An Yan's eyes were cold. Mother Cheng was not a good person either. The original owner's wholehearted care for so many years was not as good as a gold ingot from a princess whom she had never met.
When the original owner was trapped, Cheng's mother acted like the mother of the top scholar and the princess's mother-in-law, cursing at the original owner without taking into account the favors they had received in the past. She even encouraged Cheng Shuo to kill her to make room for the princess.
An Yan opened the door, and her cold and intimidating aura made Cheng's mother shut up.
Mother Cheng recalled the original owner's usual respectful attitude and stood up again, hands on her hips. "Is this the attitude of a daughter-in-law? When my son comes back from high school, I will definitely tell him about your unfilial behavior! I will make him divorce you and marry another woman from a wealthy family."
An Yan walked up to her and asked in a deep voice, "Have you ever considered me your daughter-in-law?"
Mother Cheng paused and said stubbornly, "My son is a top scholar. It's a great blessing for a seductive village girl like you to be by his side! If my son didn't like your looks, I would never let you in!"
"Oh, a top scholar who failed the imperial examination three times? It's fine if you lied to yourself, but why tell it out loud and make others laugh?"
As Cheng's mother trembled with anger, An Yan continued, "You know in your heart what kind of person he is. I was blind to fall for him. How about this? You return the money I invested in your family over the years, and we'll have nothing to do with each other. How about that?"
Cheng's mother's face flushed red and white. How could she not know that all these years, the mother and son's food and lodging were all paid for by Yan Niang? She just wanted to act like a mother-in-law. She could only dream of paying the money back. It was impossible!
"If you calculate carefully, the cost of daily expenses, house renovations, Cheng Shuo's salary, and travel expenses over the past six years has been no less than a thousand taels. I'm kind and generous, so I'll round off the amount and give you a thousand taels of gold!"
"You bitch! You bully me, a widow, while my son is away!" Mother Cheng cursed when she heard this exorbitant price.
An Yan smiled faintly, "No money, right? Okay, then exchange your life for it!"
