Reborn in another world [Sociopath]
Wai Ling had encountered a sociopath, and Zhi Ruo knew that despot having a disdainful defeat by surrendering. It was far more better than staying and fighting and then eventually loosing her life. Wai Ling had chosen the right choice, and Zhi Ruo applauded her every step.But not everyone felt the same as Zhi Ruo, take Wai Ling's brother as an example. When one would glance over to his expression,they would see the utter disappointment on his face as he watched as the practitioner declared Wai Ling's opponent as the winner of the match.There was sense of confusion in the room, and Zhi Ruo didn't try and stand up to assert her opinions on Wai Ling's battle. She merely clapped and that was it. Although her actions were just that, everyone knew that Zhi Ruo had no qualms about Wai Ling suffering a defeat by her own hands just like that.Bu

Zhi Ruo took note of his reaction immediately, a small frown made it self into her face. Though nobody could see it.When the staff moved aside to reveal the new member in the room.

Reborn in another world [Blessing and as an unfortunate situation]
However, as the people in the room changed, the fact that Zhi Ruo was still the one calling the shots didn't change along with the people in the room. The room was still dominated with the original rankers, and mostly majority of the rankers were Ye clan members. No one could shake her position.This came as a blessing and as an unfortunate situation for Zhi Ruo. Nevertheless she took it with grace, because it was much better than her leading the people in the room then 'it' to be handed by whomever.And besides, Zhi Ruo thought that following another person was a waste of time and was totally not her style.The tournament was coming to an end pretty much after the few people in the room got replaced. And it didn't take long for Zhi Ruo to stand up for her next fight yet again. Though the expression on her face wasn't seen whe

Zhi Ruo languidly walked in the familiar arena, the crowd was still as enthusiastic as ever. And Zhi Ruo didn't find it within her to match their excitement. Not when she caught a glance at the person in front of her waiting, and was mirroring her actions of languidness.Narrowing her eyes, Zhi Ruo sneered but her expression wasn't seen by anyone. The blank eyed on the other hand was seen with a soft smile on his face."Prepare," the practitioner motioned for Zhi Ruo and the blank eyed man. He stepped out of the arena and the barrier went up.

Zhōngguó wasn't a normal weapon, that much the blank eyed man could tell. But as much as he was hell bent on taking Zhi Ruo's weapon. He did not realize his chains were starting to melt the moment they came into Zhi Ruo's vasinity.It wasn't long before the wraith devourers manifested into their flame forms and swarmed around with the chains. Zhi Ruo was a bit surprised that the wraith devourers went out now. She wasn't restricting the wraith devourers in anyway, so she let them do as they pleased as long as they protect her well.But upon closer inspection she knew that the wraith devourers only went out when they want something. And in this situation, the 'something' that the wraith devourers wanted was the book on the blank eyed man's hand. And by extension, the chains around them that kept whipping on the air menacingly.

The blank eyed man's eyes widened in disbelief, but he could not even register the fact that Zhi Ruo's aim wasn't him, but rather he was merely a catalyst because her true aim was truly with the book that was in his hands.Other than the fact he was in disbelief, he could not even show anger, because he was more preoccupied with the slowly expanding Zhōngguó on top of his head.Zhi Ruo met his shaking eyes with more glee than the man could have ever imagined, and thought, what could he ever deserve to incur Zhi Ruo's wrath and glee like this. It was a confusing feeling for the blank eyed man to have.But what was even more confusing is the fact that the blank eyed man could feel the strength on Zhi Ruo's fingers as she gripped him.

[Surveillance] pt 2
The young women heard the middle aged woman's words, turned to look at the woman's hands who was dearly gripping the wine guard, and with a last huff she stayed silent. She looked resigned almost, as if she didn't want to argue anymore. Only the downturn of her lips were apparent in her features as she gaze blankly ahead.Seeing the silent treatment that the young women was putting on, the middle aged man's lips upturned into a smirk. The smugness was radiating off him as he straightened his back, the self assured confidence that radiated off him disgusted everyone in the room. Watching him put on a coat that was far too big for his status couldn't stop the looks of contempt that was shot on his way.As if he didn't notice the look that everyone was shooting at him. The middle aged man's eyes trailed away from the riches that the host was putting up to sell, and unto the pile of gold that was set at the corner of the room. Hi
[Surveillance]
Zhi Ruo's focus was on the host the moment the auction started, she placed her chin on the palm of her hand as she leaned on her knees looking ahead. Yuan Chuanli on the other hand, crossed his arms and leaned back on his chair, over looking the whole event with a 'ah, finally' written all over his face.Though his haughtiness was apparent on his face— well written on his facial expressions— the fact that his eyes kept in flickering on the other private rooms (much like the one that they were inside now) couldn't be kept hidden. At least, not from Zhi Ruo who was keenly aware of everything that was happening 10 meters around her."No matter how much you turn your head towards those rooms, you would never see what is inside them." Zhi Ruo spoke out, her eyes didn't leave the host who was explaining the rules of the auction per instructions. "Just keep your eyes peeled, the auction is just getting started." Her voice lightly adviced.
[Telltale]
[Qiao Liwei Auction house]Zhi Ruo gracefully accepted the outstretched hand offered by Ravel, who was dressed in his servant clothes. The only difference was, he had taken upon himself to don a white mask with no holes for the eyes nose and mouth. Stepping down from the carriage they had taken from the opulent mansion after their— quote on quote "satisfying lunch", she found Yuan Chuanli awaiting their arrival. As he had went out before her.His imposing figure stood tall, the clan's emblem prominently displayed on his back, drawing curious gazes from onlookers nearby. Both the participants of the auction and the bystanders that had nothing else to do but waut outside the auction house to try and take a good look of the rarely seem rich people.Zhi Ruo stepped beside Yuan Chuanli with a similar robe on her shoulders, adorning the Ye clan symbol of a similar fashion. She didn't mind the stares that was aimed at her, because in the first place, she didn't want to hide, nor cared to hid
[The Mansion]
With a brisk and determined pace, one that Yuan Chuanli grew to familiarize, Zhi Ruo arrived at the mansion she knew so well. Well, as much you can know from the daily reports of your butler that is. As she stepped inside, she couldn't help but notice the striking metamorphosis that had taken place. The familiar building and grounds remained, yet the ambiance and energy of the house had undergone a remarkable transformation. As Zhi Ruo led the way, Yuan Chuanli quietly followed, his initial grumbling fading away. Their path unveiled a street of lavish grandeur, unmistakably tailored for the privileged few who could afford such opulence. Yuan Chuanli couldn't help but entertain the thought that Zhi Ruo had led them astray. However, any words that formed on his lips died as his tongue was suddenly glued to the top of his mouth, he observed Zhi Ruo confidently and nonchalantly enter one of the most expansive estates.
[The Maid's Incompetence]
Yuan Chuanli stretched his hands upwards his shoulders popping in the motion, his face sported a refreshed look of satisfaction as he went out of the building with light steps. Obviously in a good mood. In the far distance, he could see Zhi Ruo's figure as she talked with her butler. He could not see Zhi Ruo's expression, but he certainly can see Ravel's.Without wasting anytime, he made his way towards the two with a look of inquiry. "The auction will start around one in the afternoon, it's still daytime and we haven't even gotten our lunch yet. What does the young miss intend to do?" Yuan Chuanli folded his hands underneath his clothes as he walked towards the duo.Upon hearing Yuan Chuanli, Ravel nodded his head. "Deciple Yuan Chuanli is right young miss, it would be advisable to eat before we attend the auction." Like a responsible servant, Ravel suggested to follow Yuan Chuanli's words. The two looked at Zhi Ruo's mask,
[Tassle]
The servant with the tassle smiled upon hearing Zhi Ruo's words, it was a tight lipped smile, as if she was saying that she knew something Zhi Ruo didn't. "It was the head that gave the order to give this to the young miss. I am to inform you that the resources that you chose and won from the tournament, along with the deed of the training ground, the plaque of the noble title, and the merit points, are inside the plaque in your hands."The servant's hands motioned for the rest of the servants in the room to line up at the sides, earning Yuan Chuanli's silent gaze. Zhi Ruo raised her brows upon hearing the servant's words, she then tied the plaque in the insides of her robe after shooting a nod towards the servant with a tassle."The head has had the heiress plaque be customize so that it can store storage now. The patriarch advices the young miss to not lose the plaque because it has now become more valuable than a mansion in the capital." The
[She's the heir]
Yuan Chuanli raised his hands and clenched on thin air as if he was clawing the clear sky above him, his face was red with unconcealed rage, and he looked close to launching himself towards Zhi Ruo. Who, even without showing the expression on her face because of her mask, still manage to annoy him to no end.Yuan Chuanli quickly realized that pretenses were useless in front of the person who is like Zhi Ruo. Because regardless of how you act in front of her her, in the end, if she is in the mood, you would be left coughing up blood in rage. Yuan Chuanli wasn't called 'boy genius ' for nothing, as he learned fast. And Yuan Chuanli learned to stop trying to control his emotions in front of Zhi Ruo, because Zhi Ruo wouldn't care if he broke his 'boy genius' façade anyways. The boy genius cannot help but feel rather offended of this somehow.But before he could do anything drastic, a woman greeted Yuan Chuanli
[Curious]
"Interesting people you say..." The owner echoed Alberu's words. The side of her lips pulled up in a quirk. A flash of uncertainty crossed her eyes looking at the representative of the Liu clan being led by her staff. 'Those guys are pretty bold to come inside without any disguises, are they not afraid of others spreading rumours? It's already bad enough that General Liu is already rumoured to have taken a bad turn in terms of his health. Now his people are coming in so brazenly. How careless, to think they even displayed their logo so proudly on their chests.' Yang Meixiang closed her fan, and tapped it gently on her palm, her thoughts were full of dissatisfaction towards the representatives of the Liu clan. Full of judgement she may have, but she could not voice these thoughts aloud.'Its also very unusual for his two concubine borne daughters to not appear in the socialite circles. In most cases, in big auctions like these, they are usually the first in line to book a private roo
[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
