Free from her problematic siblings who were now in seclusion, Wan Huang had all the time and peaceful environment in the world to practice her skills and cultivate.
Their days started with breakfast, after which both would proceed for cultivation.
Wan Huang cultivated, and practiced pill refining inside the Red Jade Palace, whole day and night occasionally coming out to have meals and to take bath.
Yaoyao cultivated in her room, with the earth element cultivation manual that Wan Huang gave her.
This became a routine for both of them.
Wan Huang's master visited her frequently, and would take her to pingxin mountains, where demonic beasts ran amock. After persuading, requesting and begging her master for a long time, she successfully managed to take Yaoyao with them to battle the demonic beasts.
The demonic cores of these beasts, were a rich source of essence Qi. The essence Qi could boost the efficien
Two days after the celebratory banquet, Wan Huang and Yaoyao left the Wan manor in the dead of the night. Aside from three sets of new clothing and some food to have through the journey, there wasn't anything valuable left in the Wan manor to be taken away as she had cleaned their treasury a year ago.Their destination was Zhongdu city in Huanyuan, where the Celestial Jade Sect selections would be held. Wan Huang pre-arranged a carriage, as it would take about a month's journey to reach there.With her standing in the family, asking permission to join the selections or going out, was a vain effort. So she had to leave quietly and quickly to avoid being caught.Wan Huang never planned on forgiving the Wan family, for the grievances she and her mother endured. With her current strength, she could not directly butt heads with them but, there would always exist some weak corners. One such advantage was Yan Wangyin.Wan Huang mixed he
In the first week of the third month of fall, the 26th year of Tian wu dynasty corresponding to the 36th year of Long dynasty in Huanyuan.The open ground of the Ningyi town was crowded with people. Young cultivators who came to participate, the families that accompanied them, teachers from various sects who came to search for potential candidates and the spectators.The ground was big and packed with people. Wan Huang joined with the crowd to hide from Wan family.It was not because she was scared of them. She could cut ties with them and leave, but as the concept of filial piety was of utmost importance in this era, such a scandal would badly affect her. She would be blamed and ridiculed.Presently, she is unable to free herself from the Wan family. Although she knows the truth about her situation, she cannot openly say it. Her claims will be refuted by them, and using their posi
The loud gong sounded, indicating the conclusion of the first task. Wan Huang was startled by the sudden sound. The open pavilion along with the utilities all disappeared and a big iron door appeared before her.The door opened to an impoverished village. A mud road passed through the middle, bordering stagnant stinky water collection. On either side of the road stood run down houses. Putrid smell of decaying carcasses permeated the air.The situation made her nauseous, but she managed to calm herself before it could be noticed by anyone outside.Suddenly from somewhere unknown, a horse came galloping through the narrow road. A five year old child, who was standing beside her, ran onto the road out of curiosity, to look.On the opposite side, a blind old man was trying to cross the road to her side.Seeing the situation in front of her, she realised both the child and the old man would be trampled by the horse. She have to save them both.
Before she knew, she stood before a majestic throne surrounded by four pillars simmering in light. The hall was lit as bright as day by the luminous pearls floating through the air. Two jade sculptures stood by the throne, carved with precision and skill, polished with patience, yet she could not recognise the identity of the creature. Looming above the throne, was a crystal sphere suspended in air, adored by markings of a ticking clock. A man, oblivious to her existence, donned in white, with a golden dragon embroidered on his robes, and its golden eyes gleamed with life. With long black hair and sharp amber eyes that could see through one's soul and beauty unmatched to none, he exuded unrivalled powerful aura greater than anything she has felt. The golden crown on his head signified his identity and responsibilities. Settled beside him, sat an enchantingly beautiful woman. Clothed in white, accompanied by a golden phoenix. Her black hair
Li Huang woke up dazed. Her eyes greeted daylight, foggy from sleep. She rubbed her eyes and sighed in confusion.The sounds of clashing blades and painful screams still echoed in her ears.Was it a dream?In an instant, her body shook in pain. The pain seared through her brains as if to blast them. Her hands reached out to grip her head for comfort.The pain intensified as visions, quickly yet painfully, flashing before her eyes.She, Li Huang, was a doctor, specialized in ancient oriental medicine and a top-tier assassin with the code name 'D'.Before her death, she received a classified mission to steal an antique ring from a famous antiquarian.His sanctuary was well guarded by top-ranked fighters and treacherous booby traps set by poison masters. S
After walking along a hidden track, Wan Huang was finally able to exit the forest, sprinting towards her isolated courtyard.Witnessing the ramshackle in front of her, for a second she thought she had entered the wrong building. However, when she saw a girl, bawling her eyes out, at the gates, it confirmed her doubts.She sighed at the appearance of the courtyard, wondering how the previous host used to live here.It was like an abandoned house. Weeds grew between the unkempt floorboards and cobwebs covered the windowless frames and dark corners. The door hung stubbornly onto the hinges, creaking as it drifts opened or closed.The girl sobbed before her, was her servant Yaoyao. She grew up with Wan Huang and was loyal to her. After her mother's death, her servants and property were all gradually stolen by the current head wife. Since Yao
Her sleeve lit up in flames, burning the fabric to ashes revealing strange markings on her forearm, blazing like fire, the mark of a phoenix, inconspicuously etched across her wrist.Filled with curiosity, she gently stroked it. Her vision blurred before changing, greeting her with a stunning vista.A garden filled with peach blossoms, flowing with the wind, filling the atmosphere with its fragrance, and in its midst stood a beautiful house. To the side, was a small pond, surrounding a spring fountain. The ground was paved with smooth white pebbles.Pink refreshing atmosphere surrounded her with small scattered waterfalls adding the beauty freezing one in place unable to tear away their eyes away from such an enchanting view.Wan Huang stood dazed in the beautiful view. From the corner of her eyes she saw some movement. She turned around and someone came out of the house.A male youth, clad in red robes stood before her, and his brown bewitch
Wan Huang slept like a log till afternoon.She was transmigrated yesterday and had a one-man show with five kidnappers. Her current body was innately weak, so dealing with them naturally wasted a lot of energy.Afterwards, she met Xiufeng and about an hour or so went, conversing with him. Only two more hours were left till daybreak when she went to sleep. She didn't want to wake up sleep-deprived, so she prohibited Yaoyao from waking her up.But, it seems like someone couldn't wait to harass her.Wan Huang opened her eyes, irritated. Yaoyao was knocked on her door in frenzy. "Young miss, please wake up!"As expected, the 'righteous' people are here to deliver justice.Wan Huang opened the door and Yaoyao entered the room with a basin of water. "Young miss, the madam's people a
