Rebirth Of The Female Antagonist: XUANRONG Chapter 3: Thank You

After those men left without looking back, the woman who was almost half-dead opened her eyes slowly. Her eyes were already lifeless like a dead fish, but one could still see the stubbornness inside of it as she stared at the sky, not caring that she was naked and dying.

"F-finally..." The woman whispered.

Finally, it was over.

She tried to stand up by trying to move her elbows to propel herself upward but she was unable to lift her arms, even as simple as breathing was very taxing for her. Her four limbs were twisted in a weird angle, making her look like a filthy broken doll that was thrown away and was abandoned ruthlessly.

The woman knew that she could no longer be saved. Even Buddha or any other G.o.ds couldn't save her.

She was dying.

Since it was already too late, she could only lay on the ground and wait for King Yama's[1] entourage to come and bring her to the underworld.

As she could feel the life inside her slowly wane, her eyes flashed with hatred.

'In the next lifetime of mine, I swear that I will personally torture those people who humiliated and betrayed me. For I, XuanRong will definitely come back and hunt them one by one. Even if I have to sell my own soul, I--- XUANRONG,--- SHALL--- DEFINITELY--- RETURN.'

The woman, XuanRong, recalled the faces of those people who owed her for two lifetimes, the people she would never ever forgive. Her father and the Xuan Family who only cared for glory and wealth, the Xiao Family who framed her Maternal Grandfather for treason, her half sister Xuan Fei and Second Mother Xiao Lou whom she treated wholeheartedly as her family but maliciously schemed behind her back... and the man... the man whom she loved with all her heart but betrayed her in the end...

'Xu Ji An.'

The Xu Ji An who once swore under the heavens that he would treasure her and love her forever. The Xu Ji An whom she treated as her sky... her love... her life.. and the very same Xu Ji An who ordered those beasts to humiliate her and torture her to death.

Remembering the humiliation and disgrace she experienced, XuanRong slowly uttered the names of those men who forcibly broke her body and soul.

"R-Rui Fang L-Li... Mo Q-Qing Feng... *cough* *cough** L-Li J-Jung Li... Baili C-Chen... *cough* *cough* Wei Z-Zhang K-Ki."

Like reciting a Buddhist Sutra, she repeatedly whispered their names until her voice could no longer be heard.

'If given a chance, I will personally drag all of you to h.e.l.l with me!'

As her eyes were starting to get blurry and she could feel that the last remaining wisp of her life was starting to fade slowly, XuanRong laughed.

She laughed like a Nu Gui[2] that was full of madness and loathing.

Her laughter contained all the hatred she felt for those people who plotted against her... those people who pushed her to her death.

When she sensed that her eyelashes were getting heavier, making her want to close her eyes and sleep forever, she heard footsteps coming closer towards her.

*step*

*step*

*step*

XuanRong remained lying on the ground, waiting for the owner of those footsteps.

She no longer had any strength to speak.

She no longer had any strength to remain conscious.

She no longer had any strength to defend herself...

XuanRong could only wait--- wait for her end.

She was already half-dead, so she no longer feared death.

She was already defiled many times, so she no longer felt humiliated being seen naked.

All that she wanted was to end this miserable life she had.

If the owner of those footsteps harbored ill intentions towards her, she could only accept her fate. Besides, after what she had experience a while ago, she no longer cared for everything.

XuanRong remained lying naked on the ground, not caring that someone was approaching her half-dead body. A black-clad man emerged from the innermost part of the forest. His steps were even and unhurried. Together with his subordinate, they walked towards her.

"My Lord[3], this guniang[4] is still breathing."

XuanRong heard someone spoke but she was already weak and her senses were not functioning properly, thus, she couldn't hear them clearly.

"Can she still be saved?"

"This subordinate is afraid that it's already too late. Her body is already broken beyond repair. Her... her lower half has been destroyed completely and it was already bleeding profusely. We could no longer do anything but wait for her death and bury her afterwards."

The man's subordinate once again glanced at the woman who was already knocking at the door's death and inwardly shook his head.

They were coincidentally pa.s.sing this area when they saw a woman lying on the ground, naked and dying.

A pity.

Another poor soul who was unable to escape her fate.

"...En."

The man walked towards XuanRong and crouched on the ground beside her. XuanRong felt that someone wrapped a tick cloak around her body. She could smell a faint lotus fragrance coming from the thick cloak, making her feel calm and at ease.

"This Lords.h.i.+p doesn't know who you are but rest a.s.sured, This Lords.h.i.+p will bury you to a place where the sun s.h.i.+nes the brightest."

The man said as he slowly stood up after covering her naked body with his own cloak. After a few steps, the man paused from walking away and turned his head towards her.

"The only way to erase the hatred you are feeling right now is to avenge yourself. Unfortunately, it is already impossible. In your next lifetime, do not let others hurt you and trust no one but yourself. Human nature is very fickle and devious. You have to protect yourself in order to survive in this kind of world."

The man was uncertain whether the woman who was lying on the ground heard his words or not but he still tried to give her a piece of advice. He, himself, was not a good person and he was usually indifferent to other people's misfortune but when he stared at the dying woman who was stubbornly trying to remain conscious, an unexplainable emotion suddenly emerged inside his heart.

At the very end of her last breath, XuanRong forced her eyes to open up so she could see the man who gave her warmth. As she was starting to lose her consciousness, she saw a pair of phoenix eyes staring back at her and a white jade carved with a flying dragon soaring above the sky hanging on his hips.

XuanRong managed to whisper, "T-thank you.." before she slowly closed her eyes and stopped breathing.

--------

"XiaoJie[5]!! XiaoJie!! Please do not scare nubi[6]!! Please do not scare nubi!!"

A sharp pain a.s.saulted her brain when she opened her eyes. She could not help but groan as she raised her hand to grab her head. XuanRong felt like she had woken up from an endless dream.

A very horrible dream. She dreamed of her life--- her life that was full of misery. Her father disowned her, her sister schemed behind her back, her lover betrayed her and threw her in the abyss of torture, her maternal family was framed and killed... and she was...

She was humiliated..

She was tortured like an animal..

[1]. King of h.e.l.l

[2]. A vengeful female ghost who experienced some form of injustice when she was alive, such as being wronged or s.e.xually abused.

[3]. 'Zhuren' (Master, Lord, Owner)

[4]. Lady or Miss (similar to XiaoJie but more polite/formal)

[5]. Young Miss (Used to address female girls in more intimate way than Guniang)

[6]. 'I' or 'This servant' (The way female servants address themselves.)
