That day, the woman—the second daughter of the Yan family, Yan Zhen—had suddenly changed her mind and invited the previous Yan Xin to go on a road trip together. Yan Xin had been flattered, thinking that her family members finally cared for her. But she couldn’t have known that while the both of them were waiting for the traffic light to turn red, Yan Zhen would actually push Yan Xin into the middle of a road full of incoming cars. It was only the fact that a car managed to come to an emergency brake that saved Yan Xin’s life, but she had still passed out from the shock.
At this moment, this pretentious woman lifted the blanket covering Yan Xin’s leg and pinched the wound there with her long, scarlet nails. All the while, she kept up the smile on her face as she said, “Sister, I see that your leg hasn’t recovered yet. Let me give you a massage.”
Yan Xin’s expression shifted when she was pinched. At this time, her body had been turned into that of an ordinary human’s, nowhere near the great mage’s indestructible body that had been fortified with all kinds of precious potions.
Yan Xin, having not felt pain for a long time, felt a wave of anger rise up in her heart and reflexively chanted the incantation for a spell. “Agu Mugatu!”
Nothing happened, much to Yan Xin’s confusion. Without paying any heed to the pain in her legs, she began to carefully evaluate her magic power.
After the short evaluation, Yan Xin realized that her current body did not have a single trace of magic power left.
Seeing that she wasn’t saying anything, Yan Zhen stood and grabbed Yan Xin’s hair, her perverted mentality still unsatisfied with this turn of events. “I thought you loved begging? Are you still unsatisfied with my help this time? Why aren’t you begging for mercy? Why aren’t you crying or screaming? You’re making me lose face!” she said fiercely.
“Cry for me! Scream for me!” Grasping Yan Xin’s hair in one hand, Yan Zhen inflicted more wounds and pain on her body with the other hand.
Although Yan Xin was in pain, she still calmly thought about her situation. She currently didn’t have any magic power, so she could only rely on magic objects to help her cast magic. Yan Xin glanced at the vase on the bedside table. There were a bunch of withered lilies in the vase. Yan Xin struggled, but managed to pick up the lily, wave it three times in the air, and chant an incantation:
“Aqua Qiyimi!”
Yan Zhen, who had been standing up, fell to the ground in response, clutching her calf and wailing, “My leg! My leg! You vicious woman, what have you done to my leg?! Ahhhhh!”
Yan Xin, who was sitting on the bed, gently stroked the withered lily and sneered. “Hehe, didn’t you want to hear the sound of someone crying? How is it? Does your own wailing sound good?”
“Aaaaaaahhh! You damnable woman! Father should have never let you enter the Yan family’s doors to begin with! You slut! If anything happens to me, you’ll pay for it!” Yan Zhen howled as she crawled out of the room. Her legs looked unharmed, but she couldn’t exert any strength at the moment.
Yan Xin didn’t care about Yan Zhen’s threat. She just looked at the flower in her hand lovingly.
In fact, while Yan Zhen was wailing, Yan Xin had felt a slight change in the deep black scar on her soul. This change made her happy. It wouldn’t be impossible to complete her mission, she thought happily.
After Yan Zhen crawled out of the room, Yan Xin looked at the lilies in her hand. They had been torn to pieces, unable to withstand the power of the magic spell. She thought, “This Yan Zhen dares to treat me, the third daughter of the Yan family, like this…” It could be seen that the original Yan Xin did not have any standing in the Yan family. Not only that, she did not have a trace of magic power now. She still had a long way to go to get her revenge!
The most important thing to do now was to regain her mana. Yan Xin controlled almost all alchemical formulas on the magic continent. As long as she had enough ingredients, it would only be a matter of time before she could regain her mana, Yan Xin thought proudly.
But after giving it further thought, she did not have her beloved cauldron and all the ingredients she needed for alchemy. What an unfortunate situation! Yan Xin lowered her head in dejection.
It was better to first understand this world and see if there were any ways to make money! Yan Xin raised her head again and encouraged herself.
Now that she’d said all that, it was time to walk the walk. Once she was almost fully recovered, Yan Xin began to go out frequently to scout for news. Everything in this world was able to make even her, a great mage who had lived on the magic continent for centuries, click her tongue in wonder.
Yan Xin, who was used to being a tyrant on the magic continent, would only return to the Yan family to eat when she was hungry. Moreover, in order to avoid the Yan family members who were always trying to find fault with her, Yan Xin would usually return in the middle of the night..
