1 Prologue

The still young girl laying on the floor, seemingly dead, twitched her fingers. Slowly she regained her conscience and the before bright, calm, and undisturbed gaze turned ice cold. So cold that it seems as if it could freeze a person's heart if they dared to look into it for too long. The dull ache in her head was but a small matter compared to what she had just learned during her little "slumber". The calm and obedient young lady from before was no more, instead she was replaced by the 21st century's world's number 1 assassin skilled in the art of assassination and poison. Her past life's her. She gently got off the ground and up on her feet, all in one swift motion, then patted the dust off of her dress. In her hand clutched her mother's favorite hair accessory and her mother's family's heirloom, a necklace with only a single silver bell.

This little girl knew what she had to do. She knew that her mother was poisoned by the favored concubine Liu Rao Mei. She knew that she had to be eliminated in revenge for her mother's death. Oh, her beloved mother who was always so caring and gentle towards her, making her love and admire her. With the discovery of her previous life's memories, she is more than capable of taking her life without anyone knowing. However she wanted Liu Rao Mei to suffer before she gets her eternal sleep, she wanted her to feel her mother's pain a thousand times over. First, she'll start by taking away everything she cared about and steal everything that she wants.

A good assassin cannot have any emotions whether it's remorse, guilt, or warmth. They need to stay cold and distant and never open their hearts, for no one is truly trustworthy. One's heart will not break if it wasn't put out in the open. So to do this she, subconsciously, sealed away all memories that brought her warmth and happiness. Now no one can stop her. Not even herself.
