A girl with beautiful eyebrows slowly walked in with the wash basin, waiting for Su Xin to freshen up.

    “Does mother have anything for me to do?” Su Xin asked as she wiped her face.

    “Shu Quan doesn’t know, but it should be a good thing. The Procuress seemed very happy. “

    Shu Quan shook her head and answered seriously.

    “Things that make mom happy…”

    Su Xin laughed, her eyes sad.

    “Miss is so good, you’ll definitely get a good marriage.”

    Shu Quan smiled widely at Su Xin.

    “Little girl, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter.”

    Su Xin reached out and knocked Shu Quan’s forehead lightly.

    “Shu Quan is telling the truth! Miss, Shu Quan will dress you up.”

    [The host is quickly integrated, and I am very satisfied.]

    Thank you for the compliment.

    [Reward the host with a drop of “Crocodile Tears”.]

    This doesn’t sound like a fun thing.

    [It will allow the host to immediately have the ability to bring forth pear blossoms like rain, and choose various crying methods, such as howling and laughing with tears.]

    Yes, it’s very strong.

    Su Xin accepted the reward. It sounded very useful. It was easy for her to fight and kill, but it was a bit difficult for her to cry. Years of training had already made her cold-blooded.

    The name of this body is Xue Yao, which is nothing more than a fancy name, and her real name has been forgotten by the original owner.

    The original owner was abducted and sold into this brothel by traffickers when she was young. With her comely appearance, she was taken by the previous Procuress and began to be trained.

   Since she transmigrated in November, it was already snowing heavily in Yu city. When she was named, the previous old procuress looked out the window, and the snow on the branches shook off, so she was given the name Xue Yao.

    When the original owner was eleven years old, the original Old Procuress passed away, and she gave the brothel to a girl who had been in the brothel for a long time and was very stable. But the original owner’s life became difficult.

    The new Procuress Ta Yan is a very utilitarian and clever person. She feels that the original owner is a seedling that can be cultivated. After harsh training, the original owner’s life was not as smooth as before. Every day she is exhausted and tired from various exercises. In order to control her weight and maintain a good figure, the Procuress also deducts her food.

    “Miss, all good.”

    Shu Quan put a hairpin in Su Xin’s hair and stroked her black ink hair.

    “Our girl is the most beautiful, Wan Yue can’t even compare.”

    Shu Quan looked at Su Xin’s side profile with obsessiveness, and said a bit angrily.

    This face is indeed beautiful, unrefined but not vulgar, and standing there is a beautiful picture.

    But no matter how beautiful, she is a prostitute after all.

    “I always feel that Miss has changed a little.”

    Shu Quan muttered to herself, but her voice was audible.

    Shu Quan is a girl bought by the original owner. She has been with her for several years. Although the two are master and servant, they are about the same age, and they’re closer than sisters.

    “Where have I changed?”

    Su Xin faintly smiled. The person in the brass mirror looked graceful and elegant. She concealed her sharp nature, and became just like the original owner.

    “I can’t tell, maybe Shu Quan accidentally hit the back of my head when I got up this morning, and saw an illusion.”

    Shu Quan shook her head and watched Su Xin stand up.

    “Where did you hit your head?  Let me see. You are so careless.”

    Su Xin glared at Shu Quan, approached the back of her head, and looked down at her, then reached out to touch her head.

    Su Xin was half a head taller than Shu Quan, and easily trapped her. Shu Quan was silent, and Su Xin rubbed it for her.

    “It didn’t swell, but pay attention next time.”

    “I got it. Miss, go see your mother.”

    Su Xin pushed open the door and didn’t see Shu Quan kneeling on the cushion, with a flushed face, after she left.

    Fourteen saw her, but it felt that in regards to the host’s task, it was irrelevant, so it didn’t notify Su Xin.

    Su Xin kept an elegant walking posture. She walked to the door of mother Ta Yan and knocked on the door.

    Fourteen, this is the slowest I have ever walked.

    [Well, it’s okay, there will be many more times in the future.]

    Su Xin has never walked very fast in modern times. She can run fast even with high heels. She has practiced. Sometimes the task requires it. But as an ancient girl, she must maintain a ladylike and elegant pace. She is very strict with herself, but she was horrified when she learned that she would have to measure her steps. If she catches herself walking quickly, she quietly chides herself and reverts to an elegant walk. Fortunately, this body has formed muscle memory, and every step is extremely accurate.

    “Mom, Xue Yao is here.”

    “Come in, Xue Yao.”

    Su Xin pushed the door open and saw her lying on a beauty couch.

    This old Procuress used to have a natural beauty. Although she is old, thirty or forty years old, she looks much younger. She exuded a soft and coquettish feeling that seemed to be coming from her bones, which cannot be concealed. 

    “Xue Yao, you are almost an adult. You don’t need me to say too much, you know what I mean.” She went straight to the point.

    “Yes.”

    Su Xin nodded obediently.

    “I heard that you have not been in a good mood these few days. Don’t think too much about it. From the first day you entered this door, you should have been mentally prepared. You are the girl I like most, I hope you’ll live up to mine and mothers’ expectations.”

    The mother Ta Yan spoke of was the previous Old Procuress.

    Ta Yan’s brain quickly thought,  Xue Yao is a good seed, and she can fetch a good price. She was already thinking about the dowry that will later come.

    “Mom, Xue Yao has something to discuss with you.”

    Su Xin looked straight into Ta Yan’s eyes. Ta Yan raised her eyebrows, raised her hand, and motioned for her to come forward.

    “I want to participate in the banquet of the Four Kingdoms.”

    Ta Yan’s face sank, and immediately sat up on the beauty couch, looking at Su Xin with slight anger.

    “Pardon?”

    “I want to participate in the banquet of the Four Kingdoms.”

    “Hmph, if you want to avoid marriage, why use such an excuse? Banquet of the Four Kingdoms, don’t be delusional.”

    Ta Yan sneered.

    The banquet of the Four Kingdoms, the elegant meeting of the Four Kingdoms, when the emperors of the Four Kingdoms gather, all scholars, wise men and counselors will go there. The singers performing at the Four Kingdoms Banquet are the cream of the crop selected from among the countless brothels of the Four Kingdoms. 

    This is the best way for a courtesan to gain fame.

    The banquet of the Four Kingdoms is held every five years, and the courtesans in each singing and dancing performance must be different, and four people will come from each country.

    This is the covert competition amongst courtesans.

    You see, even the courtesans in our country have knowledge and strategies, they are unparalleled in beauty, and our country is also amazing.

    The courtesans who can go to the Feast of the Four Kingdoms are of course very powerful, and there is another very important point, they must be virgin.

    But how difficult is it for Su Xin to do this? Just like a lady in a nightclub in a third-tier city in modern times who is going to try out for Miss World, in other words, out of reach.

    “I can.”

    “Who gave you the confidence? You look good, but how do you compare with the people in the capital? Those who fight for this place are all cultivated with a lot of money. If you think you didn’t make money for me, I will give you a post. No? Don’t know what’s good or bad, get out.”

    Ta Yan’s eyes were gloomy and she waved Su Xin back.

    Su Xin unhappily went out, her eyes gloomy the moment she went out.

    For many years, no one dared to chase her out.

    Su Xin rolled her eyes and thought of a way for Ta Yan to agree.

Su Xin’s figure walked through the night with leisurely steps. When she reached her destination, she climbed up the wall, jumped in through the window flexibly, rolled gently on the floor, stood up, and patted her pants.

    The dazzling light shone, and Su Xin squinted her eyes.

    “Can’t you come into my house like a normal person?”

    The woman was wearing pajamas with a lollipop in her hand, and said angrily to Su Xin who was standing in the living room.

    “I already got used to it. Why are you eating sweets at night, take care of your teeth.”

“ I am hungry.” Su Xin rubbed her stomach and blinked gently at Qiu Qing Qing.

    “You are so annoying.”

    Qiu Qing Qing walked down the stairs, stuffed the lollipop she had been eating into Su Xin’s mouth, walked to the kitchen, and turned on the kitchen light.

    Su Xin crossed her legs to eat lollipops, waiting for Qiu Qing Qing to cook her a meal.

    Before long, Qiu Qing Qing brought out a plate of Yangzhou fried rice and put it on the dining table.

    “Eat.”

    Su Xin spit out the lollipop stick after eating it, threw it into the trash can, went to the kitchen to wash her hands, and sat in the living room to eat.

    “How many days can you rest this time?” Qiu Qing Qing asked in a low voice.

    “I don’t know, I just finished a small order, I’m a little tired.”

    Su Xin was eating delicious fried rice and said vaguely.

    Su Xin’s profession is quite special. Objectively speaking, she is not a good person.

‘Assassin’ is a very mysterious profession. Su Xin started doing it when she was 16 years old, and now she is 23 years old, six years, she has become tired.

    Both of her parents were assassins, and they were relatively well-known members of the organization. Her parents wanted her to lead a normal life, but when she was four years old, her parents were ambushed and suppressed by others. They did not come back alive. Under the organization’s arrangement, she inherited the profession of her parents and started an unclean life.

    For Su Xin, there are actually no big changes, hell-style training, killing without discrimination, she was already farmiliar with all this.

    At the age of 17, she was no longer pure, but a ruthless killer.

    She was not very organized at first, because she had her own principles, which seemed ridiculously persistent to the leader of the organization, not touching clean people.

    So after working for a year, she was organized as a scavenger.

    Qiu Qing Qing watched her finish eating, then took the dishes to the kitchen for cleaning.

    “Qing Qing, when will your vacation end?”

    Qiu Qing Qing is Su Xin’s only trusted companion, and her confidante.

    “Almost, you go take a bath and sleep.”

    Su Xin nodded and lay on her bed after taking a shower.

   【Ding Dong, host, received an exchange request from an ancient plane, do you accept it? 】

    System Fourteen’s voice rang in Su Xin’s mind, and Su Xin chose to accept it.

    In fact, Su Xin was already dead. In order to save a child, she was crushed to death by a large truck.

    Even though she is very powerful, it was only when compared to humans.

    But when she thought she was going to see God like this, she heard a mechanical sound.

    The mechanical voice calls itself a ‘destiny exchange system’, used to promote truth, goodness and beauty, start a philosophical transaction, bind her, and tell her the rules.

    As long as you complete a mission, you can not only survive in the mission world, but also increase your lifespan by one year in the real world. This is a good thing, and Su Xin, who doesn’t want to die, immediately agreed.

    System 14 said that it is very promising to follow it.

   Don’t know what method Fourteen used, she obviously died, but she got up from the ground again, no one noticed the strangeness, very strange.

    Fourteen did not let her do the task right away, because Fourteen said that fate exchanges also have requirements, not anyone can exchange them casually.

    Su Xin is now in the state of credit, and consumes the life of success in future tasks ahead of schedule.

    Su Xin also asked fourteen, are you not afraid that I will not be able to complete the task?

    Fourteen said that if she failed, then she would die like scum, that is, she would experience two other ways of death.

    There was no if, and Su Xin answered decisively at that time.

  【During the plane transfer, the exchanger’s identity is announced, the real world freezes successfully, and the mission begins. 】

    In front of Su Xin was a woman in ancient costume with bright eyes, but her expression was very sad.

    “Is miss the noble?”

    The woman spoke gently with excitement in her expression.

    “Well, I am, I will receive all your information later, what is your wish?”

    Su Xin wore black leather clothes and leather pants, and looked very different from that woman.

    “This servant wants to become the No. 1 Courtesan, and the most beautiful person in the four countries must recognize that this servant is the most beautiful!”

    The woman was ambitious and looked at Su Xin’s eyes as if she was looking at something precious.

    “The body will be entrusted to you noble lady, and this slave will leave first.”

    The woman in the ancient costume curled her lips and smiled then disappeared into thin air.

    Su Xin opened her eyes and saw a brass mirror in front of her, illuminating an unclear image.

 The woman in the mirror had brows like a willow but her eyes are cold and incongruous.

    System Fourteen, what did the previous owner of this body say was her wish? To be the most beautiful in the four countries?

【That’s true, Host. 】

    This kind of wish… What are your standards for choosing people?

    Su Xin originally thought it was a dangerous mission that included going undercover and seeking revenge. Anyway, for her, fighting and killing were commonplace, but a beauty pageant wasn’t exactly up her alley.

   【Host, please work hard, fourteen will always be your spiritual pillar. 】

    Who is the most beautiful person in the four nations?

    【It is… Qu Feiqing, Queen of Quliu Kingdom. 】

    What is the difference in our beauty?

   【The difference between heaven and earth. 】

   …Oh my…

    There was a knock on the door, and someone whispered at the door.

    “Miss, it’s time to freshen up. Mom is waiting for you.”

    Su Xin remembered that this body was sixteen years old, and so was of marriageable age.

  【Host, I detected that your mood swings are abnormal. 】

    I want to hit someone.
