Reborn as a Hatrack in the Mystical Land-Chapter 57 - 41 The Spirit of a Woman

"Little brother," Yue Jinghua said softly, her voice raising goosebumps all over Yue Chen, the little boy's body, "Aren't you eager to attend the ceremony? Shall we go to the Imperial Uncle Luo's Mansion together? Young Master Xie, please excuse us." As she was speaking, she shyly glanced at Xie Yu.

Yue Chen, the little boy, looked innocent. He wanted to say something, but suddenly received a meaningful look from "sister" and immediately lowered his neck like a little quail, daring not to utter a word.

Shalman also repeatedly echoed, while Hongling frowned, seeing the covert look from the young lady, she also refrained from saying more.

Xie Yu, who loved to join in the fun, simply abandoned the carriage and, along with the four who had changed their route, headed towards the residence of Imperial Uncle Luo.

The entrance of Imperial Uncle Luo's Mansion was already surrounded by people who came to watch the ceremony and offer congratulations,

On the crimson red wedding carpet, laden with confetti from firecrackers and fireworks, two sedan chairs touched down simultaneously.

Imperial Uncle Luo was an old man over fifty years of age, with a short and stout figure, balding and buck-toothed, and his festive groom's robe could not hide his voluptuous greed.

At this moment, he was beaming with happiness, stepping forward to kick open the sedan curtain, intending to welcome out the beautiful bride.

A woman, frail and powerless, was helped down by the matchmaker, her figure graceful, her hair golden and eyes blue, gentle and graceful. Yue Jinghua recognized her as Xiao Chu, the elder of the twin sisters.

Xiao Chu's complexion seemed off, as if she had been drugged.

The surrounding wealthy dandies were all filled with envy. Which man in the world wouldn't want to have twin tender wives? Unfortunately, they lacked an Ancient Xuan Beast Egg to make the nightclub part with them.

"Little beauty," Imperial Uncle Luo could not contain his joy and, regardless of the onlookers, embraced Xiao Chu and nibbled her face, then moved to kick open the door of the other bridal sedan.

He was also very dismissive of today's ceremony; merely marrying a pair of cheap slaves that served as the laughter stock at the nightclub required him to prepare eight large sedan chairs, treating it as inviting esteemed ladies through the gates.

Imperial Uncle Luo had long coveted these twin beauties, for which he had visited the nightclub several times. Encountering the gentle Xiao Chu was fine, but meeting the fiery Xiao Ya often left him with a cold shoulder.

Now, having obtained the Ancient Xuan Beast Egg, truly, his wishes were fulfilled, looking forward to enjoying bliss tonight.

No sooner had the curtain lifted than a pair of scissors was thrown from inside the sedan; the sharp scissors gleamed coldly, and the matchmaker screamed tragically, her eyes rolling back as she collapsed to the ground.

Imperial Uncle Luo's face changed dramatically, his anger flaring up: "Xiao Ya, you've already arrived outside the Imperial Uncle Mansion, do you still want to back out?"

A striking red figure tumbled out of the sedan; the wedding veil fell to the ground, exposing Xiao Ya's vivid face, which was covered in blood in her hands.

Xiao Ya, weakened by the drugs, had hurriedly cut her wrist in her agitation, barely gathering some Dark Power through the pain. She harmed her own body just to muster a breath.

After all, living is merely about grasping at that breath.

As for the marriage arranged by Imperial Uncle Luo, Xiao Chu and Xiao Ya of course would not agree.

The two were cultivated by the nightclub, having seen countless clients, familiar with the myriad faces of men.

Though they never thought of marrying into a wealthy family as first wives, they also never imagined that one day the sisters would have to suffer such humiliation, being forced to marry a notorious figure like Imperial Uncle Luo as concubines.

Despite being an old libertine, Imperial Uncle Luo was born into wealth, had been studying Dark Skill since young, and was nearly in his fifties, a master of Perfect Jade Xuan. If Xiao Chu and Xiao Ya joined forces, they might still stand a chance.

Infuriatingly, to secure the beauties more quickly, Imperial Uncle Luo in collusion with Lady Yao had drugged them.

Facing Imperial Uncle Luo's questioning, Xiao Ya let out a mournful laugh, glaring hatefully at Imperial Uncle Luo and Lady Yao, who was in festive attire to attend the ceremony at the mansion's entrance, "Lady, you are truly heartless. After we sisters served you for so many years, you actually pushed us into a pit of fire to marry this beast."

"Sister, don't say anymore," wept Xiao Chu, her tears falling like raindrops; she struggled to push away the matchmaker beside her, trying to stop Xiao Ya.

"Sister, at this point, why still cover up for that old witch. Today I cannot escape death, better to speak freely. Once we enter these doors, we sisters will also face a fate worse than death. I will expose all the dirty secrets of the nightclub, how the old vile woman drugged us, forced us to lose our powers, and had us carried onto the bridal sedans. That old lecher abused young boys and girls, swapped concubines for amusement, he wants my virginity for a broken egg, I can't accept it, I won't accept it," cried Xiao Ya, her voice fraught with emotion.

"You little bitch seeking death," Imperial Uncle Luo's face flushed, he stepped forward, pulled Xiao Chu aside, and slapped Xiao Ya several times while cursing, "You can't accept it? I'll make you accept it, when I tire of you, I'll send you to the brothel to become a whore anyone can have."

It was supposed to be a joyous occasion, but now it has turned into a farce. People around, fearing the power of Imperial Uncle Luo, dared not step forward to help.

Xie Yu, Yue Jinghua, and others were also mixed in the crowd.

Xie Yu's paper fan still fluttered rhythmically in his hand, and those slightly frivolous peach blossom eyes glanced to the side, observing every movement of the Yue Family members around him.

Yue Chen clenched her teeth and tightened her small fists, her little chest heaving up and down, but she was helpless as she had been restrained by Hongling and could not move.

A sorrowful look flashed in Shalman's eyes, followed by a soft sigh.

Yue Jinghua seemed very frightened, bowing her head without showing any change in expression.

Xiao Chu was dragged around, unable to break free, crying and shouting to Lady Yao: "Lady, lady, I beg you, remembering our loyal past, please save her."

Lady Yao's face turned blotchy, humiliated publicly by Imperial Uncle Luo, feeling disgraced especially since Xiao Ya had just exposed her deeds, leaving her with no face to show.

"Ah, you dirty bitch, dare to bite me," Imperial Uncle Luo's arm was bitten by an utterly humiliated Xiao Ya, filled with rage, he immediately summoned Dark Energy and kicked her.

Poisoned, Xiao Ya couldn't channel her energy. The kick made her feel as if all the bones in her body had shattered.

Imperial Uncle Luo was not about to stop, lifting his foot to kick again.

"Luo Chang, if you hurt Xiao Ya again, today I will spill blood in the Imperial Uncle Mansion, making you lose both wealth and life," Xiao Chu cried out tearfully, her beautiful face showing only despair now, her golden hair shimmering in the sunlight like autumn radiance.

She held a sharp golden hairpin in her hand, stabbing her own throat about an inch deep, a drop of heart-stirring red blood visible.

The cold indifference of Lady Yao and the onlookers made the fragile state of the twin sisters seem even more pitiful.

Imperial Uncle Luo's face shadowed, he sneered: "Well, seems like my Lady Chu is also starting a rebellion, huh? You two self-righteous little sluts, you dare to disgrace me in front of everyone now. Stab then, if you dare do it, I, Luo Chang, will spare this little wretch's life. What, scared now?"

The sneering face of Imperial Uncle Luo was nauseating to the core.

Xiao Chu's hand trembled. She looked at her sister, who lay on the ground looking just like her, her sister who had never been separated from her since birth, and then at the disgusting face of Imperial Uncle Luo.

Tears fell like a string of broken pearls, she slowly lowered the golden hairpin, knelt down, and crawled step by step towards Imperial Uncle Luo, "Imperial Uncle Luo, please spare Xiao Ya, she is my only sister."

Her humble plea, enough to soften even the hardest of hearts. Yet Imperial Uncle Luo, heartless, on seeing Xiao Chu's pitiable state, let out a perverse laugh.

"A wretch will always be a wretch, indeed afraid of death," Imperial Uncle Luo laughed loudly.

"She is my only sister," Xiao Chu crawled close to Imperial Uncle Luo, her body sprawled on the ground, and her soft plea turned into a fierce shout, "She is my only sister, I absolutely can't let you mistreat her, you beast."

As brilliant as golden light, Xiao Chu leapt up, her eyes filled with determination. A Dan pill flew from her hand into Xiao Ya's embrace, "Xiao Ya, run!" Her voice cracked like thunder, reviving the desperate Xiao Ya who suddenly raised her head.

A scream echoed, and the crowd instantly became chaotic.

In the chaos, Hongling heard a familiar voice near her ear, "Take good care of the little master and Shalman, do not look for me."

Xiao Chu's golden hairpin thrust directly towards the unguarded Imperial Uncle Luo. Blood surged, and with a fierce palm strike filled with Dark Energy from Imperial Uncle Luo, Xiao Chu was hit in the chest.

Xiao Ya's cry of grief could be heard momentarily in the crowd, then vanished.

Xiao Chu's body fell like a butterfly with broken wings, leaving behind a stark red trail.

Lady Yao did not linger, immediately turning back into the Imperial Uncle Mansion.

Xie Yu also did not hesitate, silently blending into the Imperial Uncle Mansion.
