2022-05-20 23:31:00She could feel the pain being less by the minute and she knew that the newly acquired skill of hers was improving leaps because she was currently in great pain.
"Should I just cut my limbs off daily in the future?" Zhi Ruo uttered to herself absentmindedly, her body busy on cracking the caskets around her like peanuts. She moved swiftly, wary that the undead creatures could pop up at any second.
Knowing that she has a durable body because she cultivates, not minding the occasional lost limbs became somewhat of a social norm for those people that ha surpassed the realm of Gathering; Concentration ranks. But time to time again Zhi Ruo forgets, or she chucks it out of her mind voluntarily, that she currently has the body of a person that barely climbed up to Gathering; Concentration rank 5.
Her body was healing rather slowly, but

Apparently the reason why the system had given her a choice to choose from earlier, was for how the array would manifest now it was a skill and not some half baked combination of array put on by some mid array master. If Zhi Ruo had to guessed then she'd say the technique was probably refined to the extreme now it was in the hands of the system. Because as far as she observed, her two skills were practically broken, and by broken she means that it's not going to follow logic, if she puts on some SP for the skills to rank up. She guessed that this would be the same for this new skill. "Hmm?" The longer Zhi Ruo thought about it the more she realized how the skill worked. "What a money grubber." Zhi Ruo smiled wearily as she rubbed her chin in contemplation. It seemed like the skill wasn't as instantaneous as she expected,

At the Sighted Valley, in the entrance of the hunting grounds.Huo Feng and his two companions Wai Ling and Wai Bing arrived with minor injuries. By the time they got to the entrance, it was already sun rise. And it was evident that they had traveled throughout the night."I knew that we shouldn't travel throughout the night. Ugh, I think I got leaves in my clothes still." Wai Ling complained as she patted the insides of her sleeves, frowning. She also shook her hands for extra measures but the icky feeling still stuck to her, she could not do anything about it because she can't seem to find where the icky feeling came from."Who's idea was it again?"

Reborn in another world [The fallen]
Fallen demon is what they call a servant of a beast or monster, that has fallen out of grace from it's master. They are also classified as a beast themselves, but they are a bit different. Because fallen demon's usually intales that they are intelligent creatures.And whatever master they have fallen out of grace out off, it means those past masters of theirs are more intelligent and more stronger than the fallen demons themselves.A fallen demon in the area means that there is a intelligent high ranking monster or beast roaming the perimeter. This usually takes place is forests, or unpopulated areas. This also means the body of waters, like seas, oceans, or lakes.In this case with Zhi Ruo right now, it's in a forest.Because these intelligent monsters are whimsical, they take servants and

Zhi Ruo talked, but the fallen demon did not utter an ounce of information about the corpse behind her. Only that it is his master's worst enemy. And that it's hatred of the cultivator is crystal clear. No matter, the demon kept on screeching that it was clear to Zhi Ruo that she wasn't going anywhere.In the bouts of its whining, and screeching it spoke yet again. "If only I could cross this ring you wouldn't be sitting there alive! Cursed that damn pillar!" The demon screeched yet again.Zhi Ruo didn't look back to know which pillar it was talking about, in her heart she could not help but agree to that Fallen demon, for it is also the reason why she was stuck here. One could say that they both where the victims of the pillar. But the reason greatly varied."You hear that you bastard!? I despise you!" The fallen demon shouted until it's

To ensure that I will have a stable update, I will have to publish my chapters shorter. As to not hinder my schedule with this. I hope to have you all's understanding. I would love to make this a temporary thing, but sadly I cannot. Maybe in the future when I have more time on my hands, this arrangement will change. But for now, I can only do this. Because my updates are irregular , I hope to change that with this. Making a chapter daily with a word count over 2000+ is very hard to do, especially since this is just a hobby for me. So my updates will be every two days. I am eternally grateful for your understanding.

Zhi Ruo felt the handle in her hand, the more she felt on it the more she realized that the candle holder was something special. Well, she should've known better. As it held the fire that could even burn her hand even just by being beside it."This special too?" She asked the air."Yes," came in the pillar's response. It suddenly felt nervous when it saw Zhi Ruo's nonchalant attitude. "Please focus challenger, for I am about to lift up the restriction."Zhi Ruo sighed. The heat of two strange fire beside her scorched her clothes little by little. She found that if she doesn't do anything her decency would be at stake. So she gritted her teeth in frustration and coated her clothes with a thin layer of Qi.She made a mental note to herself that she should invest in some good clothes, if she w

[Information]
As if he doesn't know what was running through Yang Meixiang's head, Alberu turned his head and was heading straight towards the seat that was meant for the owner of the room. Which mind you, wasn't him.The owner could not help but break her expression upon seeing Alberu's audacity. It was clear to her that the masked man never put her in his eyes. But she could only open and close her mouth, knowing that she cannot afford to step on the toes of this young man. The fan on her hand fluttered quickly for a split second before Yang Meixiang chose to quietly regain her bearings. "Indeed I am busy these days..." The masked man crossed his legs as he made himself comfortable in Yang Meixiang's seat. "I hear you sell information?" He promptly changed the topic, his head tilting towards Yang Meixiang's direction. Even without seeing his eyes, Yang Meixiang knew that the young master wasn't in the mood for joking or beating around
[The Auction House]
Zhi Ruo rolled her eyes. "Quit yapping you brat, and just follow me." The young miss went inside first, before Yuan Chuanli sighed behind her and followed her lead. Behind the boy genius, Ravel followed calmly carrying Zhi Ruo's luggage. Inside, Zhi Ruo adjusted the container of Zhōngguó, and faced Yuan Chuanli unflappable façade. Before scoffing after seeing that the boy genius wasn't as unflappable as he wanted to be seen in Zhi Ruo's eyes. The vehicle started moving as soon as everyone was seated, Ravel who had already been instructed as to what to do, took over as the driver of the vehicle. And slowly, they departed from the Sighted Valley safely. The journey would take about 6 hours under Zhi Ruo's estimation given the speed that they were going, it was enough to catch up with the auction, so Zhi Ruo let Ravel do his thing and instead focused on Yuan Chuanli.
[Where Are We Going Exactly?]
It has already been day since the talk with Yuan Chuanli. And unfortunately for the young genius, Zhi Ruo saw through her words efficiently and without any waste of time. Because not even an hour later, Yuan Chuanli who was enjoying his alone time in his 'own' pavilion, directly received a scroll from Ravel. And again without him noticing that damn butler's presence ;Or so he grumbles under his breath. He was torn in between considering Ravel's actions, rude, or considerate, because the moment he handed the scroll to him (without even a greeting) the butler had disappeared instantly without a word. The young genius was certainly glad he didn't have to spend time with idle chatter (as his etiquette calls him to do) and fake pleasantries, but he won't deny that Ravel's appearance 'who was without greetings' irked him a bit. Well, not really a bit. Yuan Chuanli just find it beneath him to get
[Loopholes]
Vaguely, Zhi Ruo could see Yuan Chuanli opening and closing his mouth like he was trying to formulate the right words that was on his mind. She could not help but compare him to a goldfish, it was already arguable enough that he also had the type of look that she would see 'in a goldfish '. Although she had motioned for the guy in front of her hurriedly, she didn't actually mind and was not in a hurry at all, she is already taking her time secretly. Her reason? Zhi Ruo thought that this type of actions was like a power trip. The young miss would never 'miss' such a chance, even if it's miniscule. Yuan Chuanli who digested every words Zhi Ruo said, was a bit speechless, but was starting to get used to Zhi Ruo's antics. He understood where Zhi Ruo was coming at. And he knows that 'she' was giving this type cooperation was for her own, and his, good. But having
[Eccentricity]
As if she didn't hear the uncertainty that coated each of Yuan Chuanli's words, Zhi Ruo tilted her head. "Didn't you hear me? I already said that grandfather's words are most likely to be excuses." Zhi Ruo waved her hands dismissively. Yuan Chuanli watched Zhi Ruo's careless actions and wanted to sigh. It was his luck to face such a indifferent and free willed heiress. He had finally decided to trust the rumors, that the true blooded Ye clan members are an eccentric bunch, more eccentric than the ancient cultivators that decided to live out of the current society. Yuan Chuanli thought that Ye Gu Shi was a weird one. He soon followed that thought with; that was because he hadn't met Zhi Ruo yet. "Even if the patriarch's words are excuses, I plan to follow his words exactly at face value." The guy said, causing Zhi Ruo to frown. Who knew that Yuan Chuanli was such a good law abider th
[Playmate deal]
Zhi Ruo abandoned the thought of pretending any longer, and instead, her expression morphed into a mischievous, teasing, scowl that indicated none of her true feelings with Yuan Chuanli's behavior. She expressed her fake disappointment by sneering and sarcastically commented, "Oh, come on, where's your sense of humor?" She then reached out and grabbed one of the cups that Ravel had set on the table for them. As Yuan Chuanli rolled his eyes at Zhi Ruo's comment, his doll-like face remained cool and collected, displaying an unflappable composure that seemed at odds with his present company. It was clear that the young genius was used to a life of refinement and elegance, and even the slight hint of vulgarity in Zhi Ruo's tone, even though it was fake, was enough to make him visibly roll his eyes. "Pretend I don't have one," he said, his voice tinged with a hint of sarcasm. It sounded like he was trying to copy Zhi Ruo's tone, however it sounded awkward on his tongue as he didn't us
[You know else starts with "T" other than Tea? Tension.]
Yuan Chuanli reclined in his chair, studying Zhi Ruo intently with his cool, calculating gaze. Uncertain of what her next move would be, he remained silent, allowing Zhi Ruo to take the lead in the conversation. Zhi Ruo sat in front of him, her mask covering her face and her hands folded neatly in her lap. Despite Yuan Chuanli's intense scrutiny, she remained composed and unperturbed. Her eyes, though hidden behind the mask, betrayed a sharp intelligence and a quiet confidence, as if she knew something that he didn't. Yuan Chuanli couldn't help but feel a twinge of unease as he studied her posture, which was relaxed but poised, as if she was ready for anything. He wondered what secrets she was hiding behind that mask, and what kind of person would be so calm in the face of his scrutiny. All of a sudden, a laugh escaped Zhi Ruo's mouth. It rang inside the well furnished room, as if it was fir
[The clash of pride and duty]
If one were to happen upon the scene, without any prior knowledge of the situation, they would undoubtedly assume that Yuan Chuanli was being kidnapped. The look of indignant and reluctance on his face, coupled with the fact that he looked like was being forced to follow Zhi Ruo from behind, would be enough to make anyone suspicious. The resident genius's expression was a mixture of hesitance, frustration, and a poor attempt of getting his poker face back on. His face contorted in discomfort as he trailed behind the heiress, if anything, the only thing missing would be his eyes darting around nervously in search of a way out. Zhi Ruo, on the other hand, seemed completely unfazed by her companion's distress, or if she even noticed it at all. She marched forward confidently, her head held high and her gaze fixed ahead, as if she were completely in control of the situation. Despite the obvious discomfort of her companion,
[A meeting of Minds and Masks]
After much bargaining, and Zhi Ruo's display of 'im going to go even if you disagree anyways' Ye Gu Shi relented at last. Though Zhi Ruo did not miss how there were looks exchanged between Ravel and her grandfather, with her in the middle. The girl wonders if her butler and grandfather truly hadn't thought that she could see their little exchange above her head. And maybe Zhi Ruo did regret a little on how she ignored Ravel's report on her grandfather. It wasn't her fault that she really, badly, wanted to sleep at that time. One shouldn't be deprived of sleep you know. Nonetheless, she figured that the looks that they exchange between them, was mainly for her own good. And so ,she didn't care. It probably was something related to her safety anyways. She got what she wanted in the end, it was a win win situation. Her grandfather asked to borrow her plaque and Zhi Ruo handed it without much thought. Ye Gu Shi sighed when he received the plaque and told Zhi Ruo that she would need he
