FORSAKEN IMMORTALS

Chapter 142 - The Twins



Chapter 142 - The Twins

The two women sat in the teahouse until the night slowly descended onto the city.

They had said nothing for the entire day, just looking out the window, but as the luminous pearls that illuminated streets at night slowly began turning on, and the city began calming down, the two women rose from their seats and left the establishment.

The city was always bustling with life. During the bright hours of the day, children, adults, and even families would be traveling on the roads. Servants would be hurrying to do their tasks, and officials would be rushing back and forth through the streets to make it in time for their meetings.

During the evening and night, the city was less cramped than during the day; however, it was just as lively. The restaurants and taverns were bursting with life. Some came to drink good wine, while others came to indulge in food and other pleasures.

The red light district was incredibly popular. This was where men and women could drown themselves in carnal pleasure. They could find anything they were looking for here, and as long as one had enough money, only the sky was the limit.

This was where the Qing Twins had one of their base of operations for many years; however, after being sent for punishment, their businesses had also been removed from their hands.

They had to start from scratch with nothing, and while they needed some way of earning an income, they could not become known, as they needed to keep a low profile so that Elder Sun would not find them again.

Qing Yi and Qing Er were smart women. They had good business acumen, as they had been in control of various businesses for Li Moyun before, and they were extremely alert.

They knew when to advance, and when to retreat. They had found a young man with nothing more than a minimum amount of money, and had opened a new brothel with his investment.

This brothel was not big, nor was it small. It had developed a good reputation, and everyone knew that the owner was a single young man who had emerged suddenly.

The Eternal Shadow Palace had also done some initial investigation, but upon knowing that the owner was a single man, they had lost their interest and let it be.

It was Qing Yi and Qing Er who had given this young man the ability to earn money, and he truly respected the two women who had pulled him from his despair and given him another chance.

He was not sure about the two women’s identity; all he knew was that they were women, always wore traditional cone hats with a veil each, and that they only spoke if necessary.

The two women were in need of an astronomical amount of money, but he did not know why. He knew that they had been saving every single coin they had gotten, and he was also aware that they often went to the gates leading out of the capital; however, no matter which gate they went to, they only stayed for a short time before returning.

He never pried into their secrets, and continued to work as the owner of a brothel, but gave half his profits to the two women.

Qing Yi and Qing Er looked at one another as they returned to the mansion where they currently lived. They took off their cone hats, and their beautiful faces were revealed once again; however, the eyes, which were known to be the mirrors of the soul, were not attractive and stunning as one might have expected.

They were twisted in hatred; their eyes were glistening with malice, causing everyone who saw them to take a deep breath.

"Sister, it seems that we are a step too late," Qing Yi sighed as she thought about their intention of learning about Bai Rouyun’s lifestyle as soon as possible so that they could exert their revenge.

The two of them were well aware that there was no going back for them. The fact that they had been sent to the punishment chambers proved that Li Moyun had given them no chance of survival.

Everyone knew how cold and callous Li Moyun was, but the two were amongst the few women he had saved before.

When they had met Li Moyun, he was like a god to them. They revered him, respected him, and idolized him.

They saw him as their light, their hope, and their religion. However, as time went by, and they got older, they began to feel an odd feeling of possession over him.

If he spoke with the maids or other women, these two twins often went to harm them or their dear ones, pushing them towards death, or forcing them to leave the city, and never return.

Naturally, they did not do this to all the female servants, but anyone who could cause them even the slightest ounce of jealousy would be eradicated.

When they heard about Li Moyun’s marriage, they were not panicked. They knew that she was to be used as a way to humiliate him, and thus he would not be intimate with his wife, nor would he approve of her. However, the moment they had gotten married, everything had changed.

They did not mind sharing Li Moyun with one another, but when someone else had appeared, and taken over the position that they always dreamt about, all their emotions went haywire and out of control.

They often regretted their impulsive actions. If they had just pretended to be submissive for a bit longer, they could have killed her secretly, and ensured that no other woman could get close to Li Moyun, but now it was all too late.

Now, all they wanted was to destroy Bai Rouyun, and make her suffer a fate worse than death.
