“Oh, I heard the news yesterday.” Hong Luo said, “The demon king on the side of Winter City has become impatient again recently. It looks like he is planning to expand the territory. It is possible that he will attack Hexian City too.” 

“Really?” Shi Yan asked. There was a demon king named Sima Jiao in Winter City. He had a lot of territory. He had almost received half of the Demon Territory under his command. Even a “civilian” like Shi Yan knew that. The Demon king whose base camp was in Winter City would probably unify the Demon Realm soon.

But what did that have to do with her? It was very common to scramble for territory in the Demon Realm. She talked about it just like she did in her world, gossiping about presidential elections in the past. It didn’t matter to her anyway.

Hong Luo was very excited, “It would be great if he really fought over and grabbed the site. I can’t think of the king demon, but I can get a few good-looking demon generals. I must go up and make up for sleep!”

Shi Yan finished eating and returned to Rouge Terrace. As night fell, she got off work on time, and the duck shop on the roadside reminded her that there was a new special sauce duck that day. So she immediately bought a lot and went back happily.

Stepping into the yard, she saw the old master Qian sitting in a wheelchair looking at the sky with bitter hatred.

When Shi Yan came back, he lowered his face to look at her, with a few words written on his face; hate iron for not being steel. Shi Yan was accustomed to it. Probably most of the parents who looked at their children had that kind of face. She grabbed the fried peanuts and gave them to the grumpy old man, “Do you want to eat?”

(to hate iron for not becoming steel: to feel resentful toward sb for failing to meet expectations and impatient to see improvement)

Shi Qian didn’t want to eat, so he slapped the handrail of the wheelchair and said coldly, “My grievance has not been upheld, so how can I eat?”

Oh, here we go again. Forget it, he won’t starve to death anyway. Shi Yan took them back, ate by herself, and listened to his daily words.

From the time she woke up in this body, her father had been talking to her about the scenery of their house back then, and their deep-seated hatred, saying it every day, and saying it tirelessly. It was simply brainwashing.

He said that about ten years ago, their Shi clan was the leader of the Gengchen Xianfu in the outside world of cultivating immortals. It was very beautiful. Unfortunately, the family was ruined by Sima Jiao. Apart from some high-level cultivators, the family barely escaped. The rest were almost dead.

And her father also fell from the head of the First Xianfu to the bereaved dog. He also hid in order to avoid being chased by his enemy. It was very miserable. As for herself, she was also injured in the disaster and lost her memory——

When Zou Yan had just walked through, she didn’t know anything. She remembered that she was so tired from working overtime the night before and fell into bed. As a result, she opened her eyes and found herself in another world. At that time, her father sat in front of her and asked, “Do you still remember who you are?”

How should she answer that? She couldn’t say that she transmigrated. So she just said that she didn’t remember anything. Her acting skills should be very good, as the old man believed it all at once. This was probably her father. Then he naturally talked about her identity, and finally told her not to forget her family feud.

“If you see Sima Jiao in the future, you have to kill him!” The old man said angrily again.

His body was severely injured that year, and even his legs were gone. Shi Yan was able to understand his weirdness and bad temper. She pretended to be obedient and nodded.

When she turned her head to pick up the sauced duck, she thought to herself, would you have your family destroyed in the first place?

If she was the original Shi Yan, she may have borne hatred and feud, but she was not. She was just an innocent victim. She wouldn’t be inexplicably involved in this grudge. Revenge was impossible. She wanted to have a quiet life. The only thing that she could do for the original body was probably to take care of her old father.

As for going to the Great Demon King of Winter City to take revenge, forget it.

The door opened, and a young man walked in.

When Shi Yan saw him, she called brother.

Shi Zhenxu was not as bad tempered as Shi Qianli and was pretty good. After he recovered from the injury, he went out to work like Shi Yan. But for his work, he needed to go everywhere, in various cities outside. It took ten days and a half to come back.

“You’re back. I’ll boil water for you to take a bath,” Shi Yan slipped away, taking the opportunity to escape.

As soon as Shi Yan left, Shi Zhenxu saluted Shi Qianli, “Head.”

Shi Qianli said with a calm face, “Well, what’s going on outside?”

Shi Zhenxu: “In Winter City, Sima Jiao is indeed planning to continue expanding his territory. Hexian City may not be safe soon. Are you planning to take her away?”

Shi Qianli was heartbroken, “This Liao Tingyan is really useless. I have instilled hatred thoughts in her for many years. She only knows how to eat and drink every day. At first, I used secret methods to wash away her memory. I wanted to train her to deal with Sima Jiao. Now it seems, she is simply unbearable!”

Shi Zhenxu glanced at the sauce duck on the table beside him, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he pressed his painful forehead.

If he knew that, he wouldn’t have used such a precious life-saving celestial device to save her life. He regretted it.

If Shi Yan was there, she could accurately tell their current psychological situation. They bought the stock with a lot of money, thinking that it would bring more benefits to them from the big rise, but it continued to hold this tepid stock. They didn’t know when they could see the benefits, but it was a pity to throw it away.

In the past few years, the two had no idea how many times they had struggled with that.

Shi Yan was unaware of all these conspiracies. She shouted to Shi Zhenxu at the window, “Brother, the water is boiled. Take a bath, and bring the sauce duck in!”

Shi Zhenxu was silent for a moment. After Shi Qianli waved his hand with a sullen face, he carried the sauced duck and put on the face of a good brother.

As soon as he entered the room, Shi Yan pulled him aside and chuckled, and squeezed his back. 

Shi Zhenxu’s expression stiffened, “What’s wrong with you?”

Shi Yan said, “I haven’t got my salary yet. I recently bought too much food and clothes. The money is not enough. Hey, brother…”

Shi Zhenxu: I knew it.

He took out a bag of magic stones and tried to disguise himself as a good brother, with a pleasant face, “Use it.”
