Before he could finish his sentence, his father's powerful palm had already landed on his mother's face, his red and swollen face had already been marked by a few more palm prints. But his father still seemed to be struggling with his anger, and a rain-like fist had landed on his mother's body.

When her father's fist landed on her mother's body, her mother would still resist, but Xu Ruo watched as her mother's resistance grew weaker and weaker, until finally, even when her father's fist landed, she stopped moving.

"Mother …" Xu Ruo opened her mouth, but her voice was stuck in her throat, she couldn't make a sound, she could only helplessly watch from the side as her mother gradually lost all life, but there was nothing she could do. She was too weak, too weak to even have the ability to save her mother.

After an unknown period of time, his father was finally tired. He retreated a few steps and fell to the ground, snoring. After that, she unwillingly placed her hand under her mother's nose, trembling. She wished that her mother would be able to respond to her, but after an incense stick of time had passed, an hour had passed, and even if it was just a little bit of breathing, she wished that her mother would not do what she wanted. Only, in the end, she did not give her mother any response.

She didn't know what she should do in the future. On one side was her drunk father, and on the other side was her mother, who had already been beaten to a dead end. At this moment, she even wanted to leave with her mother, but she didn't have one, she originally thought that she would hug her mother and wail and cry, but she didn't have one either.

No one knew how a twelve-year-old girl managed to slowly bring an adult out of the house and into the suburbs. No one knew how the little girl calmly buried her mother, no matter who she placed it on, the pain was enough to make her depressed. No one knew how determined she was to eliminate all those who hurt her mother and herself.

When Xu Ruo knelt in front of her mother's grave until the sky turned bright, she didn't shed a single tear. It wasn't because she was heartless, but because she couldn't cry anymore.

Very few people passed through the forest in the early morning, so if there were people who came, they must be people with special statuses. Just as Xu Ruo was kneeling in front of her mother's grave, pondering about her next course of action, a voice suddenly rang out, "The dead are done with, the living are better off sad."

Hearing this, Xu Ruo turned her head, and saw a man dressed in black, with delicate features, as if he had walked out of a painting, but his face was terrifyingly pale. Normally, Xu Ruo would be shocked, because she never would have thought that she would encounter such an exquisite man. But now, no matter what it was, it wouldn't affect her in the slightest.

When Xu Ruo turned her head to look at that man, he was immediately attracted by the deep despair in her eyes. What kind of change could cause such a young woman to have only deep despair in her eyes? But looking at the tombstone in front of her, he probably understood. Someone must have killed her mother, and the pain of losing her family members was enough to make people despair. Suddenly, an idea occurred to him.

"Would you like to come with me to Weiyang Palace? I can teach you martial arts and help you take revenge for your mother. " The man said. Weiyang Palace was the most mysterious organization in the martial arts world, and no one from or outside Weiyang Palace knew anything about it. People only knew that all the experts in Weiyang Palace could easily annihilate the imperial guards.

However, Xu Ruo hadn't heard of these names. She only knew that once they entered Weiyang Palace, they would be able to avenge her mother. Thinking of this, her eyes lit up.

What he lacked the most in Weiyang Palace was hatred, and at this moment, if she were to enter, she would bring even more power to Weiyang Palace. As long as he controlled it carefully, she would serve him in Weiyang Palace for life, and at that time, his great career would definitely take a big step forward.

At the same time, Xu Ruo had already made her decision. She slowly stood up, and her legs were already slightly numb from kneeling for too long. The man originally wanted to go forward and support her, but he didn't expect that Xu Ruo was able to avoid his hand and use her own strength to stand up.

After Xu Ruo steadied herself, she looked directly at the man who was taller than her by more than a head. Her aura was not the least bit weaker than the man, and she replied, "I'm willing."

Afterwards, Xu Ruo followed the man into the Weiyang Palace that he mentioned, but this was the beginning of another of her nightmares. Even today, many years later, she still didn't know if she should thank or hate him. He thanked her because he had taught her martial arts, which had enabled her to cut people apart. She hated him because he had made use of her for the next ten years.

This place was filled with massacres, if one wanted to survive here, then they would have to step on the corpses of others and climb the stairs. Even if they did not want to take the initiative to kill someone, they would try to kill you.

"This is Weiyang Palace. Now, I will give you three months' time. You must stand before me. I want to confirm whether or not you are worthy enough for me to teach." The man brought her to a rough understanding of Weiyang Palace's structure and told her that it was only a test. If she couldn't pass this test, then she would be considered unlucky.

Once she was eliminated, it would be like saying goodbye to this world. If she wanted to live, then she would follow the rules here and use any method possible to kill off other people to survive.

In the following three months, Xu Ruo's life had already shown signs of indifference, as if she was just casually killing a piece of meat. From killing a severely injured person to waving her knife at a person who was several times stronger than her, if it was said that she had never killed a person before and was very afraid of killing them before, then Xu Ruo's three months of experience had already made her show indifference towards life, as if she was just casually killing a piece of meat.

It was this transformation that allowed her to successfully stand in front of the man three months later, covered in blood. This blood belonged to her and others, and she had been killing people almost every day for the past three months. The blood on her clothes couldn't be washed away.
