At the start of midsummer, the Big Dipper shone brightly, and the bright moon hung in the sky, with a gentle breeze passing through, creating a perfect night ambiance.
"The old man wandered all around, and only here can one fully bask in the moonlight without reservations, making it an excellent choice for such deeds."
On a raised, soft mound of earth outside Ji'an City on Beheaded Mountain, a young man in his twenties put down the girl he had been carrying on his shoulder, while two other young men snickered wickedly by the side.
The girl's hands and feet were bound, and her mouth was sealed with tape, her face flushed red, and her large watery eyes were filled with fear.
The three youths, looking at the delicate beauty before them, grinned, revealing their white teeth in a lecherous manner. Anticipating the forthcoming pleasures, they felt an unbearable heat coursing through their bodies.
The youth who had brought the girl crouched in front of her, ripped the tape from her mouth, and said, "Pretty girl, this is the top of Bald Hill in Ji'an City, and it's past three in the morning. No one will disturb us, so just cooperate, and we'll make sure you're satisfied. If you don't cooperate, be careful we might ruin your beauty," indicating a longevity among the establishments frequented, known as being delightful to numerous beauties, though no one had ever witnessed this.
"Dirty hoodlum, lousy bastard, what did you make me eat earlier? Why am I so weak?"
"Hehe, pretty girl, feeling weak is just right. We bought some good stuff online, especially for a beauty like you."
"You! You are all beasts, animals—let me go, or else I call the police and have you arrested. Then..."
"Shut up." The crouching youth glared, his expression darkening, "Old man and his mates have mixed with a beauty of pure elegance like you. Since we've decided to do this tonight, we definitely won't give up."
"Please... I beg you, let me go. I can give you money, however much you want, I can give."
At this, the youth standing behind laughed, "Hehe, looks like we've run into a little rich girl today. We'll take your money, but we won't let you go either." With that, the two other youths also crouched down and began to tear at the girl's clothes.
"Beast, if you dare do anything to me today, I assure you, you'll not die a peaceful death!"
The girl fought for her life, continuously twisting her body, her eyes brimming with hot tears, despair and rage filling her heart.
How could she be so unlucky? She normally never went to bars, and this time, just for some novelty, the first time she went to drink and she was drugged and brought here—now to be taken advantage of by these bastards.
If she were indeed violated, she wouldn't want to live anymore.
"Help! Help!" the girl cried helplessly.
The young men didn't stop her from crying out, and finally ripped open her knitted sweatshirt, their faces filled with excitement, "Yell all you want, we're out in the wilderness here, even if you scream your throat raw no one will come to save you."
"Dirty hoodlum, filthy pervert, I, Wen Jia, swear, if you violate me today, even if I die, I'll haunt you as a ghost."
"Hehe, well, that sounds great. If a beautiful ghost like you were to haunt us, that would also be a blessing, who would not want that?"
Several youths, unable to wait any longer, tore their sweatshirts into strips. Just at that moment, a pale arm, covered in bloodstains, suddenly stretched out from the loose soil beneath the mound, passing through Wen Jia's armpit and gripping one youth's throat tightly.
The youth felt a chill in his heart, and when they clearly saw it was an actual arm, they all let out a terrifying scream, "Mom! Ghosts! There really are ghosts in this world."
"Let go of me, let go of me..." The youth who was choked could not catch his breath and fell down at the feet of the others, convulsing and foaming at the mouth, his pupils dilated, and he fainted.
"Ah! Run!" At this sight, the other two were too terrified of losing their friend, panicked to the point of peeing themselves, and scrambling down the mountain.
Wen Jia also saw the arm that passed under her armpit and screamed out loud before fainting.
Just as she lost consciousness, a teenager, around eighteen years old, came crawling out from under the mound.
"Damn it, fucking hell! I actually reincarnated, and the worst part is, I'm stuck in such a useless body."
The young man was Yun Mu, the young sect master of the Heaven Dragon Sect on the Star Continent.
It was his sister's birthday, and knowing she enjoyed adventure, he took her to explore an ancient secret realm. He accidentally triggered a forbidden mechanism there. In a critical moment, he pushed his sister out of the danger, but he was pulverized, with only his soul barely escaping and somehow ending up in the body of a young man with the same name as his own.
By now, Yun Mu had completely fused with this body and gained all of its memories. This useless Yun Mu could not have been more different from himself. Although he belonged to the Yun Family, one of the four major families in the capital, due to his lack of capabilities and not being a direct descendant, he had been abandoned by his family a week ago, after his long-missing deadbeat dad caused him trouble.
Five days ago, the capital's top beauty Qingcheng found him, brought out an old, yellowed marriage certificate from his deadbeat dad, and, absurdly, wanted to marry him. Two days ago, he and Qingcheng registered their marriage at the civil affairs office, and that day, this useless man was brought to Ji'an City.
If there was one slight advantage this useless man had, it was that he inherited the good looks of the dad from his memory, making him devastatingly handsome.
Thus, even though he knew he was down and out, the fact that such a beautiful woman like Qingcheng would initiate marriage with a marriage certificate he didn't even know existed, made him believe it was because he was so handsome that he charmed the beauty. He was elated, just waiting for a dark and windy night to roll in the sheets with her and have some fun!
Little did he know, come night, the beauty wouldn't even let this useless man into her bed. According to his useless character, he'd definitely be extremely upset and want to pick up some girl to lighten his mood. Unfortunately, he ended up severely beaten by a group of strangers and was buried alive on Bald Mountain.
Yun Mu was always positive. Once he figured out his current situation, he didn't despair but accepted his fate.
Earlier, his hand had grabbed someone's neck. He had come out too late from underground, but still, the "returning to life" had kept him informed about the surface events and he knew they were shameless ruffians. Looking around, he saw a young man who had fainted and a little beauty with her hands and feet bound.
He walked over to the beauty, knelt down, and lifted her delicate, jade-like arm to check her pulse. Fortunately, she was just frightened and had fainted, nothing serious.
It seemed the beauty was poisoned.
Yun Mu, ever the good samaritan, picked up the beauty, let her lean on his thigh, then slid his hand into her abdomen and gently pressed in the paths of the meridians, detoxing her body after several presses. Then, he pinched a vital spot, waiting for her to wake up.
While the beauty had not yet regained consciousness, Yun Mu couldn't help but take a good look at her. Her eyebrows like new moons, a high-bridged nose, sexy lips, a slender physique, and skin smooth as jade—she was undoubtedly a stunning beauty.
