Riches After Betrayal

Chapter 1

[1]

After my family was tragically wiped out, my sister Dayna remained calm and composed, like a serene flower in a storm.

When the head of the Divine Mountain sect took notice of me, she calmly declined on my behalf.

"How can you be so heartless and ungrateful, not even properly mourning our parents!"

Because of this, the head of sect deemed me disrespectful to my parents.

However, Dayna, being seen as loyal and righteous, was accepted as the head of sect's last disciple, accepted into the Immortal Sect, and was to officially become a disciple after a three-year mourning period.

Three years later, during the ceremony, both Dayna and I were captured by the Demon Clan.

The food and water I desperately scavenged, she ate without hesitation, yet she looked down on me.

"Even among demons, one must maintain their dignity!"

"How can you grovel to the demons, it's truly disgraceful and cowardly!"

In the end, I starved to death. But Dayna, because of her noble and virtuous behavior, caught the eye of the Demon Sovereign and became his favorite.

When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day my family was annihilated.

"Leanne, you have exceptional talent. Would you like to become my disciple and return with me to Sunset Peak?"

A familiar voice rang out above me.

I suddenly looked up and found myself in my ruined home.

My parents' bodies lay at the entrance, covered in blood, barely hidden by a torn white cloth.

Standing before me was the head of Sunset Peak.

Sunset Peak was the foremost of the Immortal Sect. To become an outer disciple, one had to pass numerous trials.

The term "Immortal Sect" was already something we ordinary people could only look up to, let alone the leader of the Immortal Sect, Sunset Peak.

Thus, what lay before me was a perfect opportunity to avenge my parents.

I remembered clearly that this day, when my family was annihilated, was the only time I saw him in my previous life.

That day, a young man had fallen for Dayna and wanted to marry her with great pomp, proclaiming his love in front of the entire neighborhood.

But Dayna, with her high standards, felt insulted by his proposal and angrily threw a teacup at him.

The teacup, made of fine porcelain, hit him squarely in a very sensitive spot, causing a bloody mess, and he fainted on the spot.

Dayna, terrified, fled in the ensuing chaos.

However, that young man was the only son of the city lord. His life was ruined by Dayna's actions.
