2022-08-25 11:39:00People started trickling in the deck, as peacock stayed silently. Zhi Ruo got a feeling that she must have wanted to deal with the masked man but was unable to do so. Sadly, she knew that feeling well enough to sympathize with peacock, even though she had mixed feelings with the girl when she heard what the masked man said.
The young miss, peacock, took a look at the artifact on her hands and stared deeply at Zhi Ruo who was also looking at her with her arms crossed.
Without a word, peacock handed the mirror artifact on the hands of one of her cronies, turned around, and left. The only real indicator that the masked man was present mentally at the situation was when he whistled at the back of peacock, almost in a way that she was sure was going to piss the woman off.
But contrary to Zhi Ruo's expectation, peacock merely looked back

There was a odd silence where everyone watched as Zhi Ruo raised her middle finger as she crouched on the railings, she looked as if she was imitating a thug and she was pretty scary accurate at what she was doing. That despite the people not knowing what the middle finger meant, they knew that it gotta be something more disrespectful than what they were doing.She was so good at it, that the people behind her start throwing the middle finger at the contestants at the ghost ship despite not knowing what it meant. Raising a middle finger doesn't require moving your face muscle, shouting and it didn't also require any waving arms. So to them, it was something quite dignifying way to insult someone.And if it meant that they could insult someone while not looking like a buffoon, everyone at the Ye clan aircraft would gladly do it.By t
Reborn in another world [That is such a Tiān Dì thing]
Zhi Ruo didn't have to listen more about how the captain of the ghost ship was cursing up a storm. Because she saw how there was thin barrier that was slowly creeping up and covering the entire aircraft, she did not get why Tiān Dì would set up a barrier when they weren't under attack. But she did not have to wait for long because she realized what he was doing.When the barrier was put up fully, they suddenly could not hear a single word being uttered by the captain of the ghost ship aircraft."That is such a Tiān Dì thing," Zhi Ruo whispered under her breath, her tone had a tinge of disbelief on it. Is Tiān Dì not afraid that the people backing up the captain of the ghost ship and the backers of the contestants would come after the Ye clan as a whole? Nobody knew for sure, at least Zhi Ruo doesn't know.Well n
Reborn in another world [Names of the other teams]
Zhi Ruo made her way down the stairs, her mind occupied but yet present at the same time. The hallways were uncomplicated, and the crowd was following one direction. Zhi Ruo merely followed the flow, and in no time she arrived at hatch where majority of the contestants were already staying at.She looked at the crowd, feeling the stares on her. Yu Zhúlín's stare was piercing when she scanned the crowd candidly. He probably was at the deck when she made a show of putting a large "FUCK YOU" for the contestants of the ghost ship aircraft to see.Zhi Ruo pretending not to see his piercing gaze, as she stuck a finger at her ear trying to play it cool when she also noticed the stares she received by the Ye clan members that managed to pass. Which was was alot mind you, considering the venue was at the Ye clan's Sighted Valley.
Reborn in another world [52 hours]
The calls went on for about a few minutes, until all of the contestants from different venues was called out. Surprisingly, there were a few aircraft that barely made out. And it made Zhi Ruo wonder if that was the reason why the old man on the armour had even made a roll call in the first place.The old man in the armour introduced himself after the roll call. Turns out he was a general under the direct order of the emperor. Most people already knew who he was including the overseers. But Zhi Ruo didn't, but she had a feeling that he was on par with General Liu, if not a little bit higher on the social scale.There wasn't much to say, except he introduced himself. Zhi Ruo didn't bother catching up to his full name, but she knew that his last name had something to do with kindness and east. Catching on to the murmurs around her, she knows she'd remember his name later even if she did no
Reborn in another world [Ship]
Everyone started to pull out some hidden cards up their sleeves, after all if the team losses, their chance to go next to the last round would disappear. So everyone started pitching in their thoughts, and in the end someone pulled out a large ship from their storage. This earned a few wolf whistles.The person that pulled out a large ship on land was a familiar one, it was the woman that tried to bribe Zhi Ruo with artifacts, and eventually got told off by the masked man. She really was someone rich, able to pull off something like that with a flick of her hand, Zhi Ruo could not help but muse aloud after she saw the woman's smug look being surrounded by her entourage.There was two problems though, the teams saw what Zhi Ruo and the others were planning and eventually found out that they can do artifacts. The Sighted Valley team lit a fire under everyone's asses, and now some people w
Reborn in another world [Rubber Qi]
On Zhi Ruo's excitement on riding a ship, on land, she ended up being impatient and helped the rubber Qi guy with the instalments of the rubber thingy. Which turned out for the better because after they done installing the rubber. The purple clothed woman and peacock told everyone that the ship would need huge amount of Qi so that it could move.Peacock had a artifact on her that helped the ship to move, in the expense of everyone's Qi reserves. Zhi Ruo took the role of getting the sails of the ship to achieve maximum velocity. And the purple clothed woman took the role as the captain. Only peacock, the purple clothed woman and Zhi Ruo was exempted from adding their Qi for the ship.Because they were in charge of navigation. While the rest of the 500+ or so contestants were in charge of shoving Qi in the artifact that peacock gave. Which was enough to move the entire ship. Zhi Ruo
Reborn in another world [Dealing with something]
The purple clad woman gave Zhi Ruo a look, after seeing that she was moving freely around the ship. Silently inquiring about the ship that was also trying to one up their speed. Seeing the girl shake her head, the purple clad woman let go of her worries and trusted Zhi Ruo.The ship continued smooth sailing on land, that was until the rear shook and a large creaking noise echoed. This forced everyone to lose a second of focus before peacock got everyone's attention back and reluctantly made everyone focus supplying Qi. Zhi Ruo who was one of the free ones on the ship looked at what made the ship creak when peacock and the purple clad woman inclined their heads.She leaped up to the highest pole, her eyes looked at the damage and found that there were two teams on their rear attacking the ship with what looked like rocks.Zhi Ruo swo

"EVERYONE LEAP!" That was what the purple clad woman shouted, as the ship disappeared suddenly. Everyone leaped, some later than others, but nonetheless all of them leaped.The town's gate was on sight, and just as the ship was about to crash into the gate, it disappeared back into peacock's storage ring. All 500 or so contestants of the Sighted Valley safely reached the town, and they were the first in doing so.Everyone landed on the ground safely, before they charged inside the slowly opening crack of the gate. The guards opening the gate saluted at the numerous cultivators charging in, not even bothering on asking and delaying the people. It was apparent that they were already briefed by the general before hand.Zhi Ruo followed the inflow of people merely glancing at the town's people that was walking around. She felt the

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.

[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

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

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

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'.

[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

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

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
