S-District, Imperial Capital Star, top floor of the Shenxi Hotel.
The concentration of pheromones in the air caused the hotel’s pheromone detector to continuously emit a piercing alarm. Like a person lingering on their deathbed, after a long series of beeps—it finally died a quick death.
To be honest, this model of detector was of dubious utility. It could detect minute pheromones in the air, so in public places, it was indeed satisfactory for preventing alphas from intentionally releasing pheromones to sexually harass others. But in private settings, especially when an omega unexpectedly went into heat, it had the potential to break down. The probability was just too low—but unfortunately, it still happened.
Some had raised this concern before, but the Empire was currently worried about the problem of omegas relying on inhibitors during their heats and refusing to seek comfort from alphas. This not only led to alphas complaining about the difficulty of finding partners, but the Empire’s birth rate had also embarrassingly plummeted, leading the high command to make a very ominous connection to the catalyst of that absurd war. Thus, not only did the Empire not change the product standards for pheromone detectors based on this, but they also extended the automatic alarm time from five minutes after the alarm sounded to ten minutes.
The person in charge’s explanation was that nothing much could happen in ten minutes, and the extended five minutes would be enough to save a lot of police resources that were said to be wasted.
But in reality, in just eight minutes, an A-rank omega’s pheromones were enough to overload the detector’s system, while an S-rank omega only needed four minutes.
The person in charge’s response to this was that high-rank omegas only accounted for five percent of the total omega population, and besides, high-rank omegas were generally under heavy protection.
In other words: the probability of an incident was extremely low.
But as mentioned before, unfortunately, it still happened—the omega currently lying on top of another unconscious woman was none other than one of S-District’s most famous S-rank omegas: the Tang family’s second young miss, Tang Jianxi.
Ever since swallowing the water handed to her by that seemingly harmless alpha, Tang Jianxi’s glands had begun to throb wildly, simultaneously secreting a large amount of pheromones. This throbbing spread to her brain, making her involuntarily start to crave the alpha before her—wanting to be enveloped by her scent, wanting to be enveloped by her body, wanting to become her clothes, clinging tightly to her.
Ah, how disgusting.
The last shred of reason Tang Jianxi had left was to grab the nearby vase and smash it viciously against the alpha who was eagerly opening her arms to her.
The vase shattered all over the floor, and the alpha’s blood flowed just as freely, staining the carpet red, then staining the white bedsheets. Completely lost in her heat, Tang Jianxi didn’t care about the mess around her. She was like a desperately thirsty or hungry animal, lying on the alpha, licking the blood that flowed from her, absorbing the pheromones within. Soon, the pheromones in the blood were no longer enough to soothe the heat surging through Tang Jianxi. She began to whimper in discomfort. What was worse, she had smashed the vase too hard, and when the alpha fell, she hit the sharp corner of the nightstand. Under this double accident, a truly regrettable accident seemed to have occurred. After all, the pheromones in the alpha’s blood were growing weaker and weaker.
If this continued, by the time someone found them, they would perhaps see an omega dead from the high fever of her heat and an alpha who died a violent death due to greed.
At this moment, the wheel of fate was turned by the hand of the god of time. A fresh alpha pheromone began to appear in the air, more subtle and refined than before, so much so that one would hardly associate it with an alpha.
And this pheromone wasn’t emanating from the blood on the floor; it originated from the alpha’s glands. Tang Jianxi sat up, mesmerized, inhaling the fresh scent. If she were lucid, she would have been shocked at how powerfully this pheromone soothed her, which could only mean that her compatibility with its owner was exceptionally high.
However, none of that mattered now. What mattered was that along with the pheromones, a soul from another world had arrived—
Yun Chuji’s eyes flew open. She subconsciously touched her head, feeling a sticky wetness.
What, even in the Western Paradise, my broken body can’t be repaired?
Yun Chuji shook her head in confusion, feeling another pang of pain. To be honest, if the room before her hadn’t been so far beyond her imagination that she could only deduce it was the Western Paradise, Yun Chuji would have thought she hadn’t managed to die after all.
Look at this smooth metal, look at this bright, strange stone (chandelier), look at this beautiful fairy…
Alright, although the fairy was sitting very strangely on her lap, and the look in her eyes inexplicably reminded her of that savage bandit leader, looking at her face, Yun Chuji still held firm to her guess. So she spoke: “Excuse me…”
She had only said two words when Yun Chuji suddenly felt something was wrong.
The air was wrong.
What… is this scent?
Why… does it smell so good?
Yun Chuji felt as if she had been left to bake in the desert for three days and three nights, desperately craving a spring of water. And as the fairy drew closer, Yun Chuji realized the scent was coming from the nape of her neck. Her thirst grew even more intense, and she even had the strange feeling that this fairy was her spring.
To Miss Yun, who had etiquette etched into her very bones, this was far too offensive. She couldn’t help but shrink back, trying to put some distance between herself and that scent, but she soon hit the foot of the bed. The fairy, however, kept moving forward, her crimson lips looking as if they were smeared with blood.
No, that really was blood.
It was my blood.
Just as she figured this out, the fairy pounced, and that scent pounced with her.
Yun Chuji’s crumbling sanity completely collapsed, and she began to do something she had no idea she was doing.
Afterward, the room was a complete mess. Torn clothes were thrown everywhere, and the shattered vase, along with the carpet, had been rolled up by the enraged alpha and tossed into a corner. However, both their bodies were inevitably dotted with small cuts from the shards of glass, but these wounds seemed like nothing compared to the ones they had inflicted on each other.
Two scarred bodies lay embracing on the blood-stained bed. The scene was filled with a gothic, bloody beauty.
But Yun Chuji, as a feudal maiden from ancient China, didn’t understand what “gothic” was. What she understood even less at this moment were the memories suddenly appearing in her mind.
She could barely understand the beginning of these memories. It was about a fairy born in this Land of Bliss who had lived a very repressed childhood.
A repressed childhood—Yun Chuji could empathize with that.
But everything that followed began to shatter the understanding Yun Chuji had maintained for over a decade.
Doesn’t the Land of Bliss have a hierarchy between men and women?
How can women go to school?
How can women go out alone?
How can women walk with men in broad daylight?
And, does the Land of Bliss have no sense of shame? Why can men and women be so close in public? They even press their lips together! Isn’t that something only a mother does to her child!
No, even a mother kisses her child on the cheek!
It’s simply an offense against decency!
However, the things before were still within Yun Chuji’s frame of reference. What came next, she truly didn’t understand at all.
What are alpha, beta, and omega?
What is differentiation?
Is it an illness?
Otherwise, why would a lump of flesh suddenly grow between her legs? It couldn’t be the legendary tumor that made her great-aunt sick and die, could it!
But why has the owner of this memory lived for so long in good health?
Why does the owner of this memory have the same face as me, and even the same name?
In boundless confusion, Yun Chuji woke up. She didn’t return to the darkness she had sunk into when she died, but instead returned to this baffling Land of Bliss.
Looking at her own naked body, Yun Chuji’s mind went blank, and she quickly broke free from those inexplicable memories.
Only one thought remained: My chastity!
The books never said a woman could take another’s chastity!
In Yun Chuji’s simple and modest sex education, only her mother had ever mentioned it to her in a few veiled, roundabout words. Piecing together those confusing sentences, the definition of chastity was that if you let someone else see your body, your chastity was gone.
And from the snippets of conversation leaked during the occasional teasing of the older matrons, if you let someone else use your body, then it was a sin punishable by being drowned in a pig cage!
Yun Chuji didn’t know what the word “use” meant, but looking at the messy state of her body, she figured it was probably something close to that.
Someone used me…
Yun Chuji lowered her head and wept.
But then she saw the thing between her legs. For a moment, she was so frightened she rolled off the bed. After realizing what had happened, she was overcome with grief and sobbed uncontrollably.
She, the eldest legitimate daughter of the Yun family’s main branch, the young lady praised by all the noblewomen of Qingling County, even the highly respected Old Madam Guo had praised her as worthy of being a clan matriarch. She had even emulated the ancestors in the Biographies of Exemplary Women and smashed her head against a wall to protect her chastity. But after waking up, not only was the chastity she had guarded so desperately gone, but she had also possessed the body of an innocent person suffering from a serious illness!
How could fate treat her so cruelly!
Tang Jianxi was woken by the sound of crying. She opened her eyes with a frown, immediately feeling the pain coming from all over her body, and couldn’t help but curse inwardly: “Alphas really are all animals.”
Wait, alpha?
Tang Jianxi instantly remembered everything. The anger that had been interrupted by lust now burned fiercely. She thought, That Yun Chuji, she’d better not have run too far.
“Wuwuwu.”
The disruptive crying started again. Tang Jianxi knitted her brows and looked toward the source of the sound, only to see a figure wrapped in a bath towel, huddled in a corner, sobbing.
Tang Jianxi would recognize that figure even if it were turned to ash. Oh, so you didn’t run. You’re still here playing pitiful for me, are you?
Hah, what’s the point of pretending? The fact that you’re a beast has been thoroughly exposed. Never mind the shameful act of drugging an unsuspecting omega, just look at the situation now. She had nothing on—as a newly permanently marked omega, she didn’t even have a scrap of cloth.
And that person? She actually wrapped herself up tightly before pretending to cry. Oh, right, it’s already winter, isn’t it? It wouldn’t do to catch a cold while crying, right? The more Tang Jianxi thought about it, the angrier she became, until she was practically grinding her teeth.
As the well-versed second young miss of the Tang family, Tang Jianxi had seen many shameless alphas, but to be honest, this was the first time she had seen one who combined shamelessness and stupidity so seamlessly.
Tang Jianxi looked coldly at the constantly shaking figure and said, “Tell me, how do you want to die?”
Hearing this, Yun Chuji felt a sky full of grievance. Now she understood. This wasn’t some Land of Bliss at all; it was Avici, the deepest hell. And the woman before her was no fairy; she was clearly an Asura from the legends, beautiful but with a venomous heart. That explained it. Because she was an Asura, she was able to forcibly take her chastity, even as a woman.
However, Yun Chuji, as a chaste and heroic woman who hadn’t been recorded in the annals of history, had a fiery spirit. She raised her head and said hatefully, “Even if I’m to be drowned in a pig cage, you won’t escape either!”
This was the first time in this life and her last that the etiquette-abiding Miss Yun had ever said something so fierce.
Tang Jianxi was stunned by this answer.
Huh? What?
Did this alpha release her IQ instead of her pheromones during the permanent marking?
She seems to have gone crazy.
