The girl glanced at Gu Changsheng when she saw him arrive, then closed her eyes.

The one locked up here is the slave girl that Huo Lingyun gave to him that day.

After being given to Gu Changsheng, she was locked up here, ignored by everyone, and not killed.

Gu Changsheng walked in calmly and looked at the slave girl.

"Do you have anything to say?"

The slave girl opened her eyes and spoke calmly, "No."

"Now that I have fallen into your hands, my life is up to you. Whether to kill or torture me, it's up to you."

Gu Changsheng smiled, "You're not afraid of death."

The slave girl coldly replied, "Who isn't afraid of death? It's just that I died the moment I became a slave!"

Gu Changsheng was slightly stunned, then sat down on the ground and looked at the slave girl. "Tell me your story."

A hint of doubt flashed in the slave girl's eyes, followed by a somewhat mocking smile. "What, do you want to insult me before killing me?"

"No, I simply want to hear your story. I have wine. Can you share your story with me?"

The slave girl looked at Gu Changsheng's expression, hesitated for a moment, and shook her head. "Mock me if you want, it's up to you."

"I wasn't a fighting slave since birth. When I was born, I had a happy and harmonious family. My father was a cultivator about to reach the Foundation Building stage, and my mother was an alchemist. They were renowned cultivators in Baiyun County. But unfortunately, everything changed when I was six years old!"

Hatred filled the slave girl's eyes. "That year, my father made friends with someone, treating him like a brother. But that damn person, for the sake of a treasure, harmed my father and took my mother for himself!"

When I was ten years old, my mother desperately sent me away. But later, I received news that my mother was tortured to death by him!"

"My luck was also extremely bad. Just a few days after running away, I happened to be found by a Demonic Cultivator, who then sold me to the largest slave organization in Wu Country, the Heavenly Court!"

"Later, it was discovered that I had spiritual roots, so I didn't end up in a brothel. Instead, I was trained as a fighting slave. A few days ago, I was bought by your enemy, that Lingyun, with the purpose of killing you. But..."

The slave girl laughed self-mockingly. "Perhaps my luck in this life has always been so miserable."

"Alright, I've finished telling my story. Send me on my way. I don't want to stay in this world for another moment!"

Gu Changsheng fell silent.

The cultivation world... one shouldn't trust others too much...

This slave girl's father was really confused. He trusted someone and ended up dead, and his wife became someone else's wife!

His daughter didn't have a good ending either. Although she only became a slave and didn't suffer other treatments, being someone else's slave, isn't that still considered miserable?

After a moment of silence, Gu Changsheng took out the Heavenly Snow Sword.

"What's your name?"

"What's my name?"

The slave girl opened her eyes, her gaze somewhat confused. "I'm called Yuan Seventy."

"No, I'm asking what your original name was."

The slave girl looked at Gu Changsheng in silence. After a minute of silence, she finally said, "Xie Wanzhi."

"Come." Xie Wanzhi took a deep breath and closed her eyes.

She had long sought death with all her heart.

It could be said that her heart had died long ago.

"Alright, I'll send you on your way and help you find release."

Gu Changsheng said.
