After nine lifetimes of reincarnation, the yandere villainous heroine descends.

The Lin family is considered one of the top wealthy merchants in the capital of Tianwu. Although none of the family members hold any official position, their status is incomparable to that of ordinary wealthy merchants.

All of this was thanks to the help of the Wen family. After all, the younger generations of the two families were engaged and were in-laws, so they would inevitably help each other openly and secretly.

This business trip turned out to be unexpectedly ambushed, and of their thirty-person caravan, only the Wen sisters remain.

Ironically, this business trip was also related to the Lin family, but what was even more despairing was the truth revealed by the scarred man.

Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.

This strike plunged Wen Qingning into the abyss of despair.

It was even darker than before; the person who loved her would do such a thing to her.

The consequences of giving this to Zhao Hongye are obvious to anyone.

Lin Yuan knew all too well what kind of scoundrel Zhao Hongye was. If he hadn't been the Third Prince, he would have been torn apart by five horses long ago.

From young girls to immature children, even married women and widows, anyone with beauty could not escape his grasp.

Now her beloved is actually planning to secretly send someone to capture her and hand her over to such a hypocrite.

Why did he do this? Was it because I wasn't sincere enough to him, or because the Wen family didn't help the Lin family enough?

Wen Qingning really wanted to ask him in person why he treated her this way.

Wen Qingning suddenly seemed to have figured something out, and gave a pale smile.

Yes, no matter how good the Wen family is, they are still just a prime minister, and no matter how degenerate Zhao Hongye is, he is still a crown prince.

What the prime minister can give, the crown prince can also give; conversely, what the crown prince can give, the prime minister cannot give.

Wen Qingning felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if countless needles were piercing it. She couldn't utter a word, and two lines of clear tears hung on her beautiful face. She became listless and was supported by Wen Yuning.

The scarred man didn't care about any of that; he had already told the truth anyway.

"Miss Wen, I have told you everything I know. I wonder if you could let me off the hook and pretend I was never here today?" the scarred man said.

Wen Qingning was dazed and her eyes were lifeless. She did not reply. Wen Yuning looked at Shen Shuchou with her beautiful eyes.

The scarred man killed so many of them; now he wants to beg for mercy? That's not going to happen.

But now the situation is in control of this handsome young man in white, and the awkward thing is that Wen Yuning doesn't know him at all.

"Please, young master, kill them. The Wen family will reward you handsomely."

Hearing this, she gazed at him with beautiful eyes and said...

The scarred man's expression changed drastically, and he angrily shouted, "You bitch, I've already told you the truth. The grievances have their source, and the debts have their debtors. You're breaking your promise."

"You killed so many of my followers, and now you're telling me that the wronged have a culprit? There's no way you can have such a good deal," Wen Yuning said through gritted teeth.

He then looked at Shen Shuchou again and said, "I beg you, young master, to lend a helping hand."

Seeing this, the scarred man followed suit, saying, "Young hero, I can give you the money, just please spare my life. You may pick the two young ladies of the Wen family as you please."

In the scarred man's mind, Shen Shuchou must have also taken a liking to the looks of these two young ladies from the Wen family.

Wen Yuning's face tensed up, afraid that Shen Shuchou would agree to the scarred man's request.

Shen Shuchou hadn't expected this turn of events, noticing that both of them were looking at him.

Shen Shuchou said calmly and in an unperturbed tone, "I have nothing to do with this matter and have no intention of getting involved. Since you're asking me to come out, then you can all stay here."

In a simple sentence, the ending was foreshadowed for the scarred man and his companions.

The scarred man's face was incredibly ugly; he wished he could slap himself a few times right then and there, telling himself to teach him a lesson for his foul mouth.

I'm going to survive this time, and I'll never be so quick to be sarcastic again.

"Are you really prepared to fight to the death?"

The scarred man tried to appear calm.

"Big brother, this kid is all alone. Let's kill him together."

"There are many of us, so why should we be afraid of just one person like him?"

"Even one person and one knife could tear this kid to pieces."

The scarred man's men spoke in unison.

"Then let's all go and kill this kid." The scarred man's mind raced, and he gave the order to his men.

The group of men immediately turned menacing and charged towards Shen Shuchou. The scarred man turned and fled out of the woods.

At the same time, he felt fortunate for his own cleverness, thinking that it was enough that his men were dead.

They might not be able to see it, but how could the scarred man not see it? Shen Shuchou was definitely not someone they could kill together.

In an instant!

Centered on Shen Shuchou, a gust of wind swept around him.

Splash!

Branches swayed, leaves danced in the air, and the shadow of a sword swirled in the wind.

The cold light flashed for only a moment, bursting forth with a dazzling sword light under the blazing sun.

Shen Shuchou's eyes flashed with a cold light, and with a single sword strike, life and death were separated.

Wen Yuning covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

The group of people who were so aggressive just a second ago suddenly found themselves with their blood gushing out and their fates unknown, caught in a flash of cold sword light.

After dealing with these people, Shen Shuchou casually threw the long sword in his hand into the distance.

Clang!

The longsword emitted a sharp whistling sound that pierced the air, tearing through everything in its path with the force of a thousand troops.

The scarred man felt a sudden warning and turned around as if sensing something.

One glance was enough to terrify him; the fear of death loomed over him like a dark cloud.

The next moment, a sharp sword pierced through his chest, pinning him firmly to the thick tree trunk. Fear still lingered in his eyes, but his life force rapidly ebbed away, and he died within a few breaths.

After resolving the roadblock issue, Shen Shuchou didn't even look at Wen Qingning and the other person, and called out towards the woods, "Qianqiu is gone."

"I've arrived, sir."

Jiang Qianqiu ran out from the woods and glanced curiously at the beautiful woman not far away, then grabbed Shen Shuchou's arm with one hand.

Shen Shuchou smiled, picked up the kettle, and headed towards the direction where the carriage was tied.

But when he reached the carriage, Shen Shuchou was dumbfounded.

The horse that had been tied to the tree before leaving was now lying silently on the grass, its blood staining the green ground red.

His horse was actually killed?

Anger rose in Shen Shuchou's heart. Without even thinking, he knew it must have been those people who had just done it.

How unlucky! The horse died while I was out fetching water.

"Where are you headed, sir? You may take a ride in my carriage. My carriage is parked not far away."

At this moment, Wen Yuning helped her older sister Wen Qingning walk up from behind.

Wen Yuning wanted to thank Shen Shuchou, but he didn't seem to want to talk to her at all.

This made Wen Yuning feel embarrassed to continue looking for people, and at the same time, she felt somewhat uncomfortable.

I'm not some extremely ugly person. Normally, the men in Beijing would want to strip me naked and eat me alive if they even glanced at me.

As a result, the person didn't even look at him, as if he could absorb people's life force.

Sometimes women's minds are just so strange. If you keep staring at her, she might think you have ulterior motives. If you don't look at her, she might think you're being pretentious.

Upon seeing that the other person's horse had died, Wen Yuning felt a little secretly pleased, as this would give her a chance to strike up a conversation.

Shen Shuchou looked at himself and then at Xiao Qianqiu beside him and said, "I am going to the capital, so I will have to trouble you, young lady."

It was only a two-day journey to the capital, and Shen Shuchou could travel alone. However, he was also traveling with Jiang Qianqiu, and there were few inns along the way. Shen Shuchou didn't want the little girl to suffer any more hardship.

"It is this humble woman who should thank you for saving me, young master."

Upon hearing that Shen Shuchou was going to the capital, Wen Yuning's heart raced, and her pretty face flushed as she thought about something else.

Shen Shuchou smiled helplessly and did not reply. Jiang Qianqiu looked at the two delicate and beautiful women and couldn't help but pout.

For some reason, she didn't quite like the two of them.
