“Sang Sang, you are, after all, just a mortal. Repeatedly traveling through time and space will inevitably have unforeseen effects on your body!” Quan Jin disagreed.
No matter how important children are, they can never be more important than her. He couldn't bear to watch his partner take another risk.
Last time it was ten years, this time it's another ten years. What about next time?
No one can guarantee anything.
She travels through time and space alone, and none of them can be by her side. What if she encounters danger…
“Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. And I don't necessarily have to go back ten thousand years. It would be best if I could find the exact moment when the Demon Lord planted the exquisite heart in Xiao Bao.”
“But…”
After Sang Luo's persistent persuasion, Quan Jin and the others had no choice but to agree.
Stepping into the time-space tunnel once again, Sang Luo's mind was extremely calm. Her opportunities were limited. Each time-space reversal would be accompanied by several years of slumber. She wasn't confident that she could find the time when the Demon Lord planted the exquisite heart in Xiao Bao, so she chose to return to the beast world ten thousand years ago.
…
“Your Highness, Princess, spare me! It's my fault for being so talkative, for pleading for Yun, the abandoned male concubine!”
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Three loud slaps echoed.
Sang Luo woke up with a start, but her head throbbed painfully. She stared blankly at the unfamiliar scene before her.
A slender young beast knelt on the ground, dressed in simple coarse linen clothes, looking like a low-ranking servant.
His face was swollen and red, and he kowtowed heavily on the ground, his forehead broken and blood flowing onto the floor.
The other servants in the hall showed expressions of pity, but none dared to step forward to劝解, fearing they would be implicated.
“…So noisy.”
The female on the high seat issued a soft rebuke, and the hall immediately fell silent. The male servant who had been begging for mercy stopped his movements and looked up in fear.
The young woman reached out and rubbed her temples, frowning, her mood seemingly extremely unpleasant.
In reality, Sang Luo's mind was in chaos, and the senseless commotion of the people below made her restless and even more irritable.
What is going on?!
Sang Luo… or perhaps it wasn't her body anymore. Minos had once told her that there was a small probability when traveling through time and space that the soul would travel to the body of a person in that time, especially when evading the pursuit of the laws of heaven and earth. Hiding the soul in another person's body was the best way to avoid it. Even if the body was annihilated and eliminated, the soul still had a chance to be reborn.
She probably encountered this situation last time.
This time, too.
“Your Highness, Princess, are you alright? Should we get a witch doctor to take a look?” A deer-tribe youth in green robes stepped forward, his face delicate and pure, with a gentle and soothing voice.
Sang Luo glanced at him indifferently.
Yi Xing's heart trembled slightly. He was the princess's most favored male concubine, but the princess's expression just now was so indifferent, as if she didn't recognize him.
“Ahem, I have a slight headache. You may all withdraw. Let me be alone for a while.”
Sang Luo restrained her expression and waved for everyone to leave first.
She hadn't figured out the situation yet and didn't dare to expose her identity. It would be a small matter if others discovered that the princess's body had a different core, but it would be a big deal if she disrupted time and space.
She couldn't violate the original owner's persona, and had to pretend to be like her.
“Your Highness, Princess, your body is precious. You should have the witch doctor take a look first, in case it leaves lasting problems…”
“I said I'm fine! Do I need a servant like you to interrupt and be nosy!” Sang Luo scolded sharply.
It was clear that this princess was a tyrannical and spoiled mistress, and no one dared to say anything more, and they all withdrew.
That was close, almost gave it away.
Sang Luo breathed a sigh of relief and slumped back onto the couch.
She quickly used her mental power to search through the little princess's memories.
The next second, her eyes widened in shock.
The name of this little princess is Ji Wan?!
Is this just a coincidence… or a karmic relationship… or just a coincidence…
Soon, Sang Luo denied the first possibility.
It really was the Ji Wan she knew, the little princess of the Qingqiu Red Fox Clan, the only one in the world.
She had returned to a hundred thousand years ago!
Sang Luo rubbed her temples, her head hurting even more.
Forget it, since she was here, she had to make the best of it. The princess's identity would make it easier for her to search for the necessary materials… She also had some subtle thoughts, curious about what exactly happened between Yan and Ji Wan back then.
In order to maintain her persona, Sang Luo quickly reviewed the little princess's experiences in recent years, and the more she read, the more shocked she became. This princess was indeed a cruel and tyrannical person.
She fell in love with the young master of the Qingqiu Nine-tailed Fox Clan at first sight on the street and began her relentless pursuit, clinging to him and offering her hospitality, spending countless money just to win a smile from the beauty.
But the young master remained aloof from her, neither rejecting nor accepting her love.
Later, Princess Ji Wan learned that the young master had a lover and would soon be engaged to her. She almost went crazy and incited her father, the patriarch of the Red Fox Clan, to propose marriage to the Nine-tailed Fox Clan.
The patriarch didn't agree, so she bumped her head against a stone pillar, almost losing half her life.
The Red Fox patriarch only had this one precious daughter. That day, that bump almost scared his soul out of him. In the end, he still had to brazenly propose marriage to the Nine-tailed Fox Clan.
But the young master didn't want to marry her, and the patriarch of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan naturally wouldn't agree.
Later, the two parties reached an agreement, allowing the young master of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan to return the money and jewelry that Princess Ji Wan had given him over the years.
When the accounts were tallied, both patriarchs were shocked.
The Red Fox Clan was good at business and making money. Nearly half of the shops and banks in Qingqiu were under the name of the Red Fox Clan's patriarch. The money that Princess Ji Wan had spent was worth half of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan's treasury, including a Red Fox Clan's heirloom, which was priceless!
The young master of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan stammered and couldn't come up with so much money.
Princess Ji Wan insisted on marrying the Nine-tailed Fox Clan.
Later, somehow, the Nine-tailed Fox Clan agreed to the marriage.
To show his apology, the patriarch of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan added a generous dowry and married his son into the family.
Princess Ji Wan was so happy when she learned of this news that she couldn't sleep all night.
On the day of the engagement, the procession was grand, but she didn't wait for her young master brother.
The person sent by the Nine-tailed Fox Clan for the marriage was not the young master, but an illegitimate son, an ugly black fox youth.
Princess Ji Wan was furious. It was said that she abused the young man beyond recognition that night. The next morning, the young man was carried out covered in blood. Only after the witch doctor's treatment did he save his life.
The marriage was forced by Princess Ji Wan, and returning the person would be a slap in her face.
But she had never given the young man a good look. Although he was married in with the ceremony of a legal husband, she only gave him the title of male concubine, not even a concubine, only slightly higher in status than a bed-warming servant.
Faced with this humiliation, no one from the Nine-tailed Fox Clan came to seek justice. Obviously, no one cared about this illegitimate son who was sent for marriage.
As a result, Princess Ji Wan hated the young man even more. She vented all her resentment on the young man, constantly bullying, scolding, and whipping him.
Not long ago, she even ordered the young man's eyes to be gouged out and sold the 【Spirit Fox Eyes】 to the auction house for a sky-high price, which was considered compensation for the money she had spent on his brother in previous years.
