Reborn in another world [Eyes on the clown]
Ma Meilin took another scroll from one of the big shots behind her. The crowd was quieted down, the majority were on the edge of their seats, hands expectedly raising banners. Zhi Ruo was reminded of concerts and football games by amount of people that were focusing their gazes at the contestants. The tournament was over, the fights were over, but the crowd was still there, on the edge of their seats and excited for the contestants that they were rooting for. The past tournaments weren't like this, the stands weren't as full as before, and majority would have already stood up after the fight ended. However, now, the stands were full and it seems like nobody had any thoughts of standing up and leaving. Rather their enthusiastic attitude made the staff of the tournament feel burdened. Because of Zhi Ruo's eye catching provocations the tournament became very popular. If this keeps up, and Zhi Ruo will attend th
Reborn in another world [Scrolls and Eye Rolls]
The masked figure returned to Zhi Ruo's side, his hands deftly manipulating the newly acquired scroll. A soft hum escaped his lips as he approached Zhi Ruo, his demeanor seemingly relaxed despite the gravity of their circumstances. "You seem happy." Zhi Ruo raised her head as she nodded towards Alberu, Yu Zhúlín beside her was also looking at the masked man with a smile. Evidently caught up in the euphoria of his recent accomplishments, a self-satisfied smile graced the face of Yu Zhúlín. Alberu spared Zhi Ruo a glance before he nodded. "I am." He said, a quick quirk of his brows before his smile returned to his face, his expressions were hidden though. The only change that Zhi Ruo and Yu Zhúlín saw, was the incline on his head towards their direction. "But not happy enough." Zhi Ruo uttered. There was a twitch on Yu Zhúlín's face, but Zhi Ruo didn't even spare the green haired man a glance. "Who are you to know how happy I am" Alberu rolled his eyes, his hands fiddled with the sc
Reborn in another world [Not there for the glory, just the free stuffs]
"As the champion of the tournament, you will receive the following rewards." Ma Meilin started, her hands moved to open the scroll. "You will receive 50,000 merit points, a cultivation sight of your choosing. Of course, it had to be under the imperial family's name. Numerous cultivation resources of your choosing, along with the resources that are meant for the group you are affiliated with. A peerless treasure of your choosing, a title as a noble in the great Guan Wei empire. A peerless treasure of your choosing as well as a compartment that has 20 kilometers in space inside." Joining the tournament has many perks, and Zhi Ruo thought that the rewards were the best part of it. Nothing beats free cultivation resources, she thought. The young miss itched to grab the scroll from Ma Meilin's hands and stop her from talking about what rewards she, Zhi Ruo, got. She doesn't need anyone peeking on what kind of treasure that she had. But alas, the young miss could not move under the light
Reborn in another world [Additional rewards]
The others that remainded at the venue could not help but glance at Ye Gu Shi who was laughing with Zhi Ruo in his arms. The younger girl was helplessly covered by her grandfather who was around 7f tall. Ye Gu Shi was tall, but he was considered average in terms of height to other cultivators who towered over 8-9feet tall. "Can you let go," came in Zhi Ruo's muffled plea. But it seemed like the patriarch heard what his granddaughter was saying because he let go with a last laugh. "It's seems like I have to thank you for earning our clan some resources." The patriarch said teasingly said, while guiding the younger girl towards the waiting group. Ravel was quick to summon a robe from nowhere as he approached Zhi Ruo. The girl willingly let her butler put on the embroidered robe on her, while her grandfather was busy laughing smugly. Zhi Ruo could feel the stare of the new guy on the back of her head, so she inclined her head towards the new guy's direction. Only to see such a stone
Reborn in another world [An introduction]
Yu Zhúlín listened, and he listened well. He seemed to have some few things in mind already when Zhi Ruo turned her head to look at his expression. The deep creases of contemplation on his face was a deep contrast to what kind of expression he usually wore. It caught Zhi Ruo's eyes, but she did not find it displeasing at all. She almost found it relieving that even like Yu Zhúlín could have such expression on his face. That's right, this is what a senior brother's face should look like, Zhi Ruo could not help but thought. It wasn't until she saw that her grandfather's attention went back at her did she raise her head to look at her grandfather in question. "That goes the same for you, you can also look for your grandfather if you want anything." The patriarch said with a soft smile. Zhi Ruo might have not noticed it, however Ravel certainly did. And he found it amusing that the two people in the room pretended to not see the doting look on the otherwise strict patriarch's face.
Reborn in another world [Merits]
Yuan Chuanli's jaw loosened up, his fingers pressed against the wood on the table as the expression of slow disbelief was clearly shown on his face. The quick flash of frown on his face was apparent and was clear as day, however, no one was paying attention to his reactions, because nobody even bothered to point it out. On the other hand, Yu Zhúlín had a rather tame reaction because he already expected Zhi Ruo's question. He was just waiting for Zhi Ruo's questions to stop. Until then, his attention was on the food Ravel had given and put on the table. However, Yu Zhúlín felt that it was kinda hard to swallow the food when Ravel's gaze was piercing the back of his neck. Yu Zhúlín thinks it was because he was eating the food Ravel had prepared for Zhi Ruo, but that was just probably his imagination. "How can the merit points be seen again? And how could it be used?" Zhi Ruo's voice drawled out, she adjusted her posture on her seat. Her back was now 'comfortably' ramrod straight.
Reborn in another world [Crazy pair]
Yuan Chuanli quietly scoffed, but even after Zhi Ruo heard his clear, but otherwise silent contempt, she did not care, nor did she have any spare energy to care. Rather, she focused her attention to her grandfather who caughed and gave Yuan Chuanli a disapproving but amused look. The young miss has an inkling that her grandfather was already half expecting this kind of treatment. The more Zhi Ruo payed attention to the general feeling that Yuan Chuanli was giving off, the more she realized that he held the same contempt that Tiān Dì held for her when she entered the Sighted Valley. She may not like nor care about that sleazy looking senior brother of hers, however, she will not deny the fact that she will move upon further provoked. Zhi Ruo steadied her demeanor, and met her grandfather's amused look with a even expression hidden underneath that mask of hers. Seeing Zhi Ruo's calm demeanor, the Patriarch could not help but reveal a amused smile. And Yuan Chuanli who was waiting fo
Reborn in another world [Going back]
Everyone in the room desolved into chatter, with the expense that Yuan Chuanli had to suffer the stiff and uncomfortable scrutiny of Zhi Ruo. The guy knew that he was a hard person to deal with, he was now starting to realize that Zhi Ruo was the kind of person that would be 'even harder' to deal with. The girl may not show it, but there was an underlying and subtle thing that washed over Yuan Chuanli, that made him know that he was being watched. And it certainly made him uncomfortable. It wasn't great to be the end person to receive the type of treatment that he would usually do on others. There were no words of complaints that can leave his mouth. After all, it wasn't like he could say 'can you stop making me uncomfortable?' won't he be just blatantly saying that Zhi Ruo had an effect on him without even raising a finger. Where would his face go? His face would probably fly off to the distance by the face slap that he was giving himself. As the chatter continued, the door open

A day later, and with sufficient rest. The lady took her time to look over her servants to find out what was missing or needed in her pavilion. Ravel mentioned in passing that the food in the pavilion was a bit lacking, the young lady noted this in the back of her head before she handed all her responsibilities to Ravel to handle. The butler, who was already used to this, didn't complain with Zhi Ruo's way of handling things and just calmly proceeded to make schedules. Through all that, Ravel had the time to dress Zhi Ruo up with the help of the other maid servants. Although the servants weren't used to the cosmetics products and skin care products that Zhi Ruo had around. They were quick to learn how to efficiently apply these products to Zhi Ruo's body. Ravel didn't let the maid servants stick around to help Zhi Ruo prep her face. The young lady prepped her own face by herself. In the afternoon, Zhi Ruo went out of her pavilion, and went straight to her grandfather's office where

When Zhi Ruo ascended to her pavilion, she was welcomed by her immaculately attired maids, who combined made for a lovely sight. The girl nodded with satisfaction, her thoughts already praising Ravel's managerial skills. She could tell that Ravel had been careful in his training of the staff. because she failed to see a single hair out of place.His training of the household staff was evident in every corner; not a speck of dust dared to linger, and not a single servant’s uniform bore the faintest wrinkle. After they landed, at the forefront of the welcoming assembly stood her venerable grandfather, Ye Gu Shi, a figure of unshakable dignity, clad in robes that seemed to flow like rivers of ink and silver. Flanking him were her senior brothers, their postures firm as ancient pines, and her sole senior sister, Ye Qing Qing, whose serene presence commanded both grace and authority.He congratulated the people that managed to get far in the tournament. The ordeal was done in a solemn man

[Thirty minutes later— landing time...] In the vast expanse stretching near the Sighted Valley, the aircraft descended smoothly, landing without much of a hitch. As the doors opened, Zhi Ruo stepped out with an air of quiet confidence, her movements purposeful and composed. Behind her, Ravel followed closely, his demeanor attentive as ever.The other contestants had already gathered in the designated drop-off area, their murmurs filling the space as they watched the new arrivals. Zhi Ruo took a steady step, her gaze sweeping over the (still) ufamiliar faces. The last time she had been here, she had been left unnoticed, easily dismissed, and barely given a second glance by the crowd. But today was different. This time, all eyes were on her, a subtle shift in their expressions was apparent.This was not the same indifferent reception she had received during her first arrival; this time, she was far from overlooked. There's this hushed silence that blanketed the whole place, Zhi Ruo wa

[Yapperist]
Thirty minutes before their scheduled landing, a soft knock echoed through the quiet hallway as Ravel, the ever-dutiful butler, rapped his knuckles on Zhi Ruo’s door. He stood there, impeccably dressed as always, though his usual calm demeanor was tinged with something more urgent.The butler proceeded to inform that he got from the patriarch to Zhi Ruo. Ultimately, and very quickly, betraying the contract he had with his master's grandfather.Zhi Ruo who had just woken up after getting a 3 hour power nap, couldn't get a word in after she was bombarded with Ravel's information dump. She could only let her butler in wordlessly, and led him to the table where he continued to babble on.She, on the other hand, had other plans. After guiding Ravel to the table, Zhi Ruo didn’t bother sitting across from him. Instead, she walked right back to her bed, not even pretending to be interested in the deluge of information spilling from her butler. With a sigh, she plopped face-first onto the matt

[Whispers of obligations]
Ye Gu Shi sat up straight his eyes gazing down at Ravel's form. He felt awfully overwhelming, that the butler who was just acting could not help but break into genuine cold sweat. "Ravel, I will now ask you to use that strength to aid me for a bit." The patriarch's voice reached Ravel's ears, Ye Gu Shi was solemn as he asked, it was obvious that he put great importance to this, that much Ravel could tell.Ravel furrowed his brows, his gaze still lowered on the floor. "May I ask what this is about?" He ventured out carefully, Ravel could almost feel the worried frown on Ye Gu Shi's face even though he did not dare to raise his eyes at this moment.There was a deep sigh that reverberated in the room, Ye Gu Shi almost seemed tired and worried all at once. This made the butler more curious than he would ever care to admit. "I know you have hidden your strength for quite some time, I hoped that you would be willing to use that strength to protect my granddaughter." His request came out lik

[1,2,3— Ravel with the oscar winning acting]
There was something deeply unsettling about the atmosphere in the room, an almost palpable tension that seemed to cloak the space and instill a sense of unease in anyone who crossed its threshold. However, it appears to be like the two men had not noticed each other's gazes as they were blatantly sizing each other up.There was a rather interesting look on Ravel's face as his face adorned a smile that even Zhi Ruo would find rather creepy. On the other hand, the Patriarch seemed entirely absorbed in his own thoughts, completely unaware of Ravel’s unnerving expression. His focus remained on the steaming cup of tea in his hand, his brow furrowing slightly as he took a slow, deliberate sip.There was nothing that Ravel could do but wait in silence with his impregnable smile.'Master has said that she has plans to deal with her grandfather when it comes 'with her secrets'. Though, I don't think she has taken into account how much the man has kept his eyes on her even if he was not in sig

[Luck]
Zhōngguó made a face in my direction, a clear attempt to provoke or elicit some sort of reaction. However, it didn't bother me in the slightest. If anything, it only made my amusement grow. I could feel a small smile tugging at the corner of my lips, but I chose not to indulge him. My attention gradually shifted away, and I soon ignored the weapon who was clearly trying to rile me up for his own entertainment. The soft hum that drifted from his direction served as a quiet backdrop, but I paid it no mind, busying myself with putting the petals away in their proper place."Why aren't you as excited as I thought you'd be?" His voice broke through the quiet, carrying a tone of curiosity. By now, he had already made himself comfortable, sprawled lazily across my bed like it was his own personal lounging spot. I could feel his eyes on me.With a quiet sigh, I swept my fringe away from my face, tucking the stray strands behind my ear. Slowly, I raised my head from the mask I had been inspect

[Zhōngguó awakened]
My back straightened instinctively, a subtle tremor running through my hands as I stood among the sea of petals. The air was thick with the fragrance of flowers, in its own way, it was almost eerie. Each delicate bloom seemed to pulse with life, amplifying the excitement I could barely contain. If Ravel was here to see my expression, he would have called me a lunatic despite his upbringing.Still, it would have been weird if I wasn't excited upon receiving such a huge landfall. The realization that I could wield a law without ever fully mastering it was nothing short of incredible. It wasn't just any law either—it was one that felt deeply familiar, intricately woven into my life through the teachings of my master. The humm in my consciousness made me realize the true potential of the petals around me.But the excitement soon faded, the initial rush of wonder slipping away as the petals around me vanished at my command. With just a single thought, they retreated, condensing into a su

[The first law]
Although Zhi Ruo isn't entirely sure how Ravel levels up or even how her butler continues to grow stronger, she is certain of one thing: Ravel has the ability to level up. It's a fact she doesn't fully understand but has come to accept nonetheless. Zhi Ruo's puckered up her lips unconsciously. Her thoughts shifted to the state her contracts were in.Zhi Ruo finally tore her gaze away from the sapling, reluctantly pulling back her heightened senses so that she was no longer acutely aware of the intricate state of her contracts. With her focus shifting, her eyes settled on a delicate flower resting quietly a short distance away, its presence unassuming yet somehow captivating. Her expression remained mostly unchanged, though a faint glimmer of curiosity surfaced in her eyes. Having finished evaluating the first prize, Zhi Ruo turned her attention to the second, the one she had chosen at random. Naturally, it was the flowerInside the glass box sat an unassuming flower, its petals perf
