Chapter 20: Xi Cheng's Qin Xiaowu, the Snake and Scorpion Beauty

Ling Xiaoxuan swallowed and asked in a low voice, "What about the mountain Goblin?"

"Sent away," Qin Ruan replied, her back to Ling Xiaoxuan as she bent down to pick up the pillow she had brought down hastily when she first came in.

Walking over to the bed, she threw the pillow onto it and relaxed her body, looking languid.

Ling Xiaoxuan turned on the dormitory light and surveyed the messy scene inside, still able to smell the foul odor left behind by the mountain demon.

She looked back at Qin Ruan, holding her heart which was beating very fast, and walked step by step towards the bed, staring at her eagerly.

"Qin Ruan, my junior sister, what exactly do you do? Why are you so powerful? Are you a hermit, like a Taoist from Mount Mao, or a demon hunter from some sect?"

Qin Ruan lay lazily on the bed, her whole body in a relaxed state.

She propped up her head with one hand, while the other gently stroked her belly, her eyes shining with a gentle and soft light.

Qin Ruan raised her eyes and smiled, "Senior sister, we've known each other for so long, are you sure you don't know my identity?"

Ling Xiaoxuan, as a member of a prominent family, naturally collected all the information of the people around her at the first time, to determine if they posed any potential danger.

When she first met Qin Ruan, Ling Xiaoxuan's family had sent someone to investigate her.

Qin Ruan grew up in Xi Cheng's slums, often coming into contact with a variety of dangerous people from all walks of life who were up to no good.

As a girl who had lived in Xi Cheng for eighteen years, she lived not only recklessly but also very safely.

It should be noted that a girl as exquisitely beautiful as her was too dazzling and eye-catching in Xi Cheng and it was impossible for men not to fancy her.

Qin Ruan relied on her fists and a fierce attitude to establish a territory for herself in the western part of the city. Some had tried to take advantage of her with aggressive means, but she viciously disarmed them, leaving them battered and bruised. Despite this, there were still many men who wanted to be with her. 

Men with power and influence in the western part of the city were particularly interested in her. They tried to use their power and bully her, but she refused to back down. In order to protect herself, she once fought against dozens of men, even when they beat her to the point of spitting up blood, she still got up and fought fiercely. That battle made Qin Ruan famous in the western part of the city. 

At that time, she wasn't known as Qin Ruan, but Qin Xiaowu. She was a beautiful woman with a cruel heart and a fierce reputation. Even after the fight, men were still attracted to her, but they were also intimidated by her ferocity. 

How much suffering does a girl have to endure to gain respect from those dangerous people who don't care about human life in the western part of the city? This is also why Ling Xiaoxuan was more determined to get in touch with Qin Ruan. 

Although in the past few months of contact, she saw Qin Ruan as a quiet and sensitive girl who sometimes showed signs of insecurity. Ling Xiaoxuan still believed that since Qin Ruan had such a thrilling experience in the western part of the city, she wouldn't disappoint her. 

Qin Ruan's actions in the western part of the city surprised and impressed Ling Xiaoxuan. If she was thrown into that ruthless part of the city without her noble background, she probably wouldn't have the courage that Qin Ruan had. 

That night, Qin Ruan didn't reveal her identity to Ling Xiaoxuan. Some things and words can't be spoken out loud. The next day, Ling Xiaoxuan quit the paranormal exploration team. 

You may not believe in ghosts and gods, but you should always respect them. In the unknown world, unknown creatures may be lurking around you.
