Chapter 6

Time flew by when a person is comfortable and in peace 

Shen Xinyi didn't knew when three weeks flew by and she received a reply of the letter she sent ro her brother Shen Qi. 

In his letter Shen Qi had blindly agreed to her will and took oath on his pride as a vice general that he won't be marrying any woman that Shen Xinyi didn't approve of thus placating her mind .

Reading her brother's letter and sipping tea made Shen Xinyi put her mind at ease at least now She knew that Shen Qi will no longer be returning to the capital and thus the plan to annihilate him will never be set in motion. 

Thinking about it Shen Xinyi felt a sudden thrill now that Shen Qi will no longer be returning wouldn't Chen Min Min waiting at the Shen mansion will be funny? if possible she would really like to see her face when Chen Min Min will realise that Shen Qi won't be returning any time soon !

"Elder sister!" 

Shen Xinyi looked up and her gaze softened under her care Shen Miao had finally bloomed into a little beauty . Shen Xinyi had given her multiple skin care products from her pharamacy and along with a  three set of nice meals a day Shen Miao was no longer her wispy self .

Currently Shen Miao had a troubled look on her face and her brows were furrowed, looking at Shen Miao's  furrowing brows Shen Xinyi couldn't help but frown herself what could have happened to make Shen Miao to look so anxious? 

"What happened?" putting down her tea cup Shen Xinyi asked 

"Elder sister its...Its FATHER!"

.......

At the entrance of Dong Lie nunnery a carriage stood at its side stood a servant who seemed to be talking to Lady Zhao looking at the pair of them a coldness flashed in Shen Xinyi's eyes . The man name was Wang Wei . IN her past life too this man was her carriage driver but he deliberately took her on a secluded path where a group of assassins were already waiting , In her past life she escaped with a bloody wound but it took her at least three days to arrive at the capital by the time she arrived her reputation was already in crumbles .

And with such a reputation how could she find a man for her ? at that time her father said 

" YiYi must not blame father . Even though father failed to save Yiyi ,father had somehow begged the third prince to take you as his wife, now YiYi make sure to make up to his highness the third prince " 

At that time she blindly agreed and acted as a faithful and generous wife,she didn't even care when she pushed the Luo family into the muddy waters of throne succession but what did she received in the end a white linen silk cloth and the execution of her entire clan !.

Hatred surged through her heart she couldn't wait to rip those who betrayed her and drink their blood ! 

and as the beginning She will start with this Man who worked so hard with Shen Ping in destroying her reputation. 

When Wang Wei saw Shen Xinyi arriving with Shen Miao he acted accordingly but Shen Xinyi just looked at him coldly , did he thought that she didn't knew that his actions were perfunctory! 

Looking at the man bowing in ceremony an urge to stab her dagger in his skull fuelled her mind .

No she wouldn't kill him so easily didn't he liked to play ? She will make sure he is well 'played'.

"You may rise " after a very long time Wang Wei heard Shen Xinyi give her consent furious he stood up straight and was going to give her a piece of mind when his diatribe was stuck in his throat 

A pair of dark eyes were staring at him but none if them held the naivety of the past instead it looked as if those tranquil set of black eyes can already see through him maybe he felt a little guilty that's why a shiver rose through his spine .

Where was the past naive Second young miss of the Shen family ? this girl looked as if she was waiting to devour him alive!

But he couldn't do anything else he had already accepted the money from Lord Shen if he failed he might be better off dead thus gritting his teeth he could only comply to the wishes of Lord Shen .

"Second miss,Third miss your father Lord Shen had decided to forgive you for your misgivings please pack up and follow this lowly one " 

"Un "even though Shen Xinyi was looking at Wang Wei in utter disdain she couldn't kill him yet She needed his blood for later use .

Turning around and sending Shen Miao off to pack up Shen Xinyi called Lady Zhao in her room . These past days Lady Zhao was working at her back and call thus wasn't hard for her to ask Lady Zhao what her father was up to .

"Lord Shen had only asked me whether or not young miss sent a letter to Eldest young master of Shen family ; and I answered him in the same manner as you requested " before Shen Xinyi could ask Lady Zhao set off in a hurry but nobody could blame her in the past Shen Xinyi had been giving her two gold taels for her work. Lady Zhao was worried that if she failed maybe Shen Xinyi will ask for a repayment! 

" Very well ,you have done well " Shen Xinyi took out four more golden taels and gave it to Lady Zhao "Remember we never had any thing to do with each other you were always following Shen Ping orders and I never sent any letters " 

like a hen pecking on corn Lady Zhao nodded and left. 

......

"Elder sister I can't believe father would let us out so soon !" Shen Miao happily chatted off however Shen Xinyi paid no heed to her , Her mind was completely focused on the outer scenery they were going on the exact same path they did in the past except that she had an extra baggage to protect and that was Shen Miao . Shen Xinyi felt her head was swelling Shen Miao was too naive!

"I knew father care about us-"

"Do you think father really care about us ?" hearing  her cold voice Shen Miao became silent at once surprised she turned to look at her sister only to be startled by Shen Xinyi's cold expression. 

"Elder sister what-"

"Look outside when you arrived at Dong Lie nunnery didn't it took you three hours to arrive but now that we are returning how come the journey is exceeding by an hour ? questioned Shen Xinyi it wasn't that she wanted to scare Shen Miao she knew she could protect Shen Miao well but Shen Xinyi knew it was better for Shen Miao to open her eyes sooner or else.

Shen Xinyi closed her eyes and threw those horrible memories in back of her head no this time she had to protect people who were close to her .

After Shen Xinyi reminder Shen Miao finally took notice of her surroundings, when she was sent to Dong Lie nunnery the suburbs arrived within an hour but right now even after three hours they were still stuck in forest! A horrible thought creeped in her mind horrified Shen Miao looked at Shen Xinyi 

"Finally caught on?" 

"Father want us dead?"

Maybe it was her reluctance but the statement sounded as if she was asking  Shen Xinyi .

"Yes"

Hearing Shen Xinyi reply Shen Miao closed her eyes She knew that their father never loved them but deep in her heart she thought that maybe he cared for them even if it was a little bit .

"How can sister be so relaxed?" looking at her elder  sister calm attitude Shen Miao couldn't help but ask .

"Because I'm diffrent now "Shen Xinyi replied simply "You go under the seat and hide Once everything gets Calm I will whistle you can come out than " 

"I want to help too ,I will protect elder sister!" 

Hearing shen Miao's declaration Shen Xinyi felt as if something had clogged up in her throat in her past life these were Shen Miao's last words before she was stabbed in her heart .

"No ,you haven't mastered the techniques I have taught you if you still come out you will act only as a burden to me " refused Shen Xinyi flatly .

Reluctantly Shen Miao hid under the carriage sit . Once She was perfectly hidden Shen Xinyi tried to open the carriage door and just like the past it was bolted . 

Wang Wei felt super happy this mission was too easy just carrying two weak girls to their deaths and he will be rewarded with 20 golden taels! With them he could easily get a wife and start a family .

He was still indulged in his fantasies when a loud boom jerked him awake . 

Startled he turned to look back only to see Shen Xinyi staring at him from the carriage roof .

Looking at Shen Xinyi Wang Wei  was so terrified that he nearly lost control of the carriage

"You!" looking at the dagger in her habd Wang Wei trembled no body told him that the Second miss of Shen family knew martial arts! didn't they say she was a trash without any internal energy if she was without internal energy how did she broke open the door? 

"Stop the carriage " with a kick Shen Xinyi was now standing behind Wang Wei her dagger at his neck ,Wang Wei was so scared that he nearly peed how will he have the courage to refuse her he stopped the carriage at once.

"Aren't you going to call your friends?" 

Hearing her chilling voice Wang Wei felt that  his heart was almost in his throat with the dagger slowly sliting his throat he couldn't do anything else ,petrified he shouted the code word Shen Ping told him for activating the Secret assassins. 

And once he shouted assasins jumped out from their hiding place at once but when they saw what was going on they were shocked a girl of 12 was holding a grown man by his neck! 

When Shen Xinyi saw those assasins she coldly smiled sure enough even after almost a century Shen Ping hadn't change he will do anything to make Shen Yu sit on that Phenoixe throne but She, Shen Xinyi will never let this dream of his to becone reality in this life!

Taking a needle out of her sleeve she smiled warmly but the warmer she smiled the colder Wang Wei felt before he could even throw her off he felt a cold sensation on his neck following it something warm gushed out of his eyes,ears,nose and mouth.

It was his blood!

Horrified he turned to look at Shen Xinyi but he couldn't even get a single word out of his mouth and felt that every bit of his skin was burning .His last words drowned and only a strangled scream of pleading escaped his lips before his eyes rolled back and his body slowly shrunk resembling a mummy.

The Assasins were looking at Shen Xinyi horrified as if she was the devil reincarnated,in reality they were just some thugs they dealt with weak prey never had they expected that they would deal with an opponent who can make a living person turn into mummy! 

Staring at the blood covered Shen Xinyi and her warm smile they had a strong urge to run away ! 

"Going to run away? to bad I haven't played enough " Spoke Shen Xinyi her voice chillier than that of the devil.
