Child of Fortune About to Die Upon Debut

Qiu Ziqin never expected that Ye Chen, who always handled suppression from others with ease, would ever appear so disheveled.

Looking at his current pathetic state, and then thinking back to the proud, unyielding youth he once was.

Heh, how much things have changed!

Ye Chen, regaining his senses, followed Qiu Ziqin's gaze and finally realized his own embarrassing state.

His face instantly flushed red, as if he had suffered immense injustice.

He roared in despair.

"Master! Your disciple begs you, please accept the slave seal!"

"Duke of Wei has already agreed to spare me just now."

"As long as you can perform a few alluring poses in front of Duke of Wei,"

"Perhaps Duke of Wei will soften his heart for a moment and let us master and disciple go?"

Hearing this, Qiu Ziqin was furious, his nose and face contorted with anger.

She truly never imagined that her disciple, whom she had always cared for, was actually an ingrate.

Listen to what he just said, asking her to act seductively in front of Duke of Wei.

What was the difference between her and those women in the pleasure quarters?

What did he take her for!

For a moment, Qiu Ziqin also felt disheartened and looked towards Mo Yunxuan.

"Perhaps the Wei State Duke Mansion is a good place to end up."

Looking at Mo Yunxuan, who always appeared aloof no matter what he did, Qiu Ziqin felt, for the first time, what it meant to have overwhelming power.

At this moment, she recalled the past.

From a young age, she had displayed exceptional talent, but because of her female body, her parents, who favored males over females, wouldn't allow her to cultivate.

Until an instructor from Taihua Academy discovered her and bought her with money.

Her parents, who were worried about the betrothal gifts for their son, naturally wouldn't refuse such a deal.

After the instructor brought her back to Taihua Academy, he taught her diligently.

Allowing her to stand out among the many talented individuals in the academy, eventually earning the appreciation of the Empress.

And it was from the moment she turned to the Empress that the instructor never appeared before her again.

But by then, she was already the center of attention, no longer the pitiful little girl who was disdained and bought.

And she also intentionally tried to forget that instructor, the past she wanted to erase with all her might.

Until she reached the Void Refinement Realm and became the Vice Dean of Taihua Academy, she finally emerged from her past weakness and inferiority, and forgot the hardships and distress of her past.

Thinking back now, that instructor seemed to be from the Wei State Duke Mansion Faction as well.

Who would have thought, she herself was also an ungrateful ingrate.

And now she had taught a disciple who was also an ingrate.

Truly, the Heavenly Dao is a cycle, Heaven spares no one!

Qiu Ziqin, distraught, lowered her head and walked towards Mo Yunxuan.

She only stopped when the long sabers of the Elite Vanguard officers blocked her path.

Without any hesitation, she knelt straight down, her forehead deeply touching the ground.

"This sinner, Qiu Ziqin, pays respects to Duke of Wei."

Her voice was low, her originally magnetic voice now hoarse.

Hearing the word "sinner," Mo Yunxuan was somewhat surprised and directly voiced his confusion.

"Oh? What is your relationship with the Wei State Duke Mansion?"

Qiu Ziqin maintained her kneeling posture and recounted her experiences without any fluctuation in her tone.

This made Mo Yunxuan click his tongue in amazement and size her up, thinking to himself:

"If this were a female-centric novel world, she'd be a definite main character."

Then he turned his gaze towards Wang Yuan.

As the elder most involved with the Wei State Duke Mansion's affairs, he should know something.

"Uncle Wang, do you remember what she said?"

Wang Yuan frowned and thought carefully.

With his peak Spirit Transmutation Realm cultivation, he wasn't afraid of memory lapses, but it still took some time to find what he was looking for among his vast memories.

After waiting for a while, Wang Yuan spoke again:

"Master, Wang Changshun, an instructor from Taihua Academy who used to serve our Wei State Duke Mansion, seemed to have mentioned this matter."

"Oh? What did Wang Changshun say?" Mo Yunxuan's attitude softened considerably towards Wang Changshun, after all, he was one of their people. He couldn't possibly treat someone loyal to him with a scowl.

"Master, Wang Changshun once complained at the dinner table that the girl he adopted was an ingrate. He wished he had just killed her on the spot."

Upon hearing this assessment, Mo Yunxuan looked at Qiu Ziqin, who was kneeling on the ground, with great interest.

He could clearly feel Qiu Ziqin's body tremble slightly when Wang Yuan mentioned "ingrate."

Tsk, so it turns out that when a person is about to die, their conscience suddenly awakens!

But it's not that easy to die!

The dogs trained by the Wei State Duke Mansion must be used by me, the Wei State Duke.

However, he was curious about Wang Changshun's whereabouts. He wondered what Qiu Ziqin's reaction would be upon seeing Wang Changshun again.

"Uncle Wang, where is Wang Changshun now?"

"Master, Wang Changshun was sentenced to border defense duty as punishment. He died ten years ago on the Northern Border."

Hearing this, Mo Yunxuan nodded, sighed deeply, and didn't continue the topic.

Instead, he walked up to Qiu Ziqin and said in a low voice, "Lift your head."

Qiu Ziqin obediently straightened her upper body and slowly raised her head.

Mo Yunxuan reached out and gently stroked her cheek. Looking down from above, her head was so low that her knees were not visible.

She truly was a peerless beauty! It was a pity she had to die.

Although Qiu Ziqin was filled with despair, she felt Mo Yunxuan's touch. A strange tremor arose in her heart, making her want to grasp onto it tightly.

Mo Yunxuan made up his mind, withdrew his hand, and wiped it on her clothes. This action caused Qiu Ziqin, who had regained some spirit, to sink back into despair, as if a knife had been brutally stabbed into her heart, causing waves of pain.

Mo Yunxuan didn't notice these subtle changes in her. He naturally extended his right hand to the side, palm facing up. The nearby officers respectfully handed him the long saber in their hands.

Fiddling with the slightly damp hilt of the saber, his eyes, seen through the blade, looked coldly at Qiu Ziqin. He said in a flat tone, "It's fine to give you a chance to atone."

"Didn't you just say you were willing to sacrifice yourself for your disciple?"

"Go, let me see your resolve."

"Take this saber and bring me your disciple's head."

After speaking, Mo Yunxuan threw the saber in front of Qiu Ziqin, making a "clanging" sound that shocked everyone.

What kind of demonic words are these! Asking a master to decapitate her disciple! How can someone be so cruel?

Hong Yu's heart trembled violently. She knew many disgusting things about the high officials and nobles, but this was the first time she had witnessed something so inhumane.

Meanwhile, Qiu Ziqin, still in pain, her eyes flashed with brilliance, as if she had found her value. She quickly lowered her head, her voice returning to its original magnetic tone: "Yes, Master."

Hearing this "Master," Mo Yunxuan's lips curved upwards, and his eyes became subtle, as if he had discovered a very interesting toy.
