Qian Yan picked Chu Xiaoyue up by her collar, then threw her outside Baoyue Peak, under her disciples’ disbelieving eyes.

“Ahhhh——!”

Chu Xiaoyue’s voice disappeared along with her figure.

The service disciples, who saw this, swallowed their saliva and vigorously rubbed their eyes.

What was wrong with their peak master today?

They weren’t complaining, of course. This was great.

However, they knew that their peak master held a lot of affection for her family, the Chu family, who lived in Dengyun Peak. They really couldn’t believe that was they saw just now was real.

They wondered if their peak master would go back to how she used to be if her parents came and demanded an explanation for this incident.

These service disciples were happy about what happened, but they were also worried that brutal revenge would follow this incident. They were having very complicated feelings.

“Little Sixth.”

Xu Cai was still immersed in her beautiful dream. She was still thinking about how this dream was so unrealistic, yet so beautiful at the same time.

The master that she most admired had beaten Chu Xiaoyue, who had bullied her for many years. Her master had even mercilessly thrown Chu Xiaoyue out of their peak.

She couldn’t control her happiness. Her eyes seemed to have turned into streams, and tears kept flowing out of them.

When she heard her master calling her, she quickly raised her hand to wipe her tears with her sleeves. She looked at the white-clad figure as she was walking over.

The master still looked as cold as she always did. Xu Cai, though, felt the happiest that she had ever been since she first entered the peak.

Her master’s expression, in her dream, remained the same. However, Xu Cai now felt protected by her.

Xu Cai didn’t like crying in front of her master, as it might make things difficult for her master. She kept wiping her tears with as much strength as she could, but her tears couldn’t seem to stop flowing.

She couldn’t control it, though. Eventually, she gave up and just started to softly weep.

Qian Yan walked up to her and said, “No one will bully you from now on.”

The strength that Xu Cai had maintained collapsed instantly.

“This is a dream, and I don’t need to control myself so much. My dream master is so good, she definitely won’t blame me for being impolite,” Xu Cai muttered. She looked at Qian Yan, who had already approached her, and then she threw herself into Qian Yan’s arms, crying loudly and miserably.

Qian Yan wasn’t a particularly emotional person However, as a bystander, she could grasp Xu Cai’s current state of mind.

She realised that Xu Cai was crying to release all her pent-up grievances, so she didn’t push her away.

The woman in white, who was watching all of this unfold by the well, also shed tears. She was silently crying and did so even more sorrowfully than Xu Cai.

She choked up. “I owe Little Sixth so much.”

Xu Cai had a very tough life. First, she was bullied by Chu Xiaoyue, enduring a beating every month.

If Qian Yan hadn’t shown up today, Xu Cai would have been lashed across the face. Chu Xiaoyue was a ruthless character. If it had been a normal whip, Xu Cai would have recovered in about ten days to two weeks.

However, the whip had been coated with poison, which meant that even after ten days to two weeks, Xu Cai showed no signs of recovery.

The original host had happened to be in seclusion when this happened. Xu Cai had no choice but to go out, despite her injured face. She didn’t get better, even several months after the incident.

One day, Chu Pingyu came to Baoyue Peak to get something and happened to see her. He already had some ideas about her, and, at that moment, he decided to give her some medicine for her face.

Xu Cai knew that Chu Pingyu wasn’t a good person. However, Xu Cai, who had endured so much suffering, felt somewhat moved by his continuous acts of kindness.

She had been living through such a hard time without her master’s protection, and she was finding it increasingly difficult to persist.

Even so, she didn’t immediately agree to Chu Pingyu’s advances.

She couldn’t do that; her master had saved her life, and she couldn’t make such a decision. Deep down, she still held some hope that the original host might stop her from going to Chu Pingyu’s side.

She knew that Chu Pingyu wasn’t a kind person. He wouldn’t marry her as his true wife. He probably just wanted to keep her as a side piece for him to play around with.
