《The Female Cultivator In The World of Men》 The Map Of Twin Star Continent Here is the map of continent that comes up in chapter 36 in comment section. So if you are new here, you can just skip it or see this..your choice. Indications: Red name = Name of Sect Pink Name= Name of the palce where the Sect is established Red cross= Forbiddened Area ... Disclaimer: These are four chinese mythical beast and also the constellations or what not. But Vermilion Bird is of South while Black Tortoise is of north. Yet they are swapped here. Cause its my own making and I did not it until recently. plus its all fiction so its fine. I will add other places as we go on slowly in future The system information The ability that MC unlocks are all basic level abilities. There are main 4 types of abilities in this world: 1) Mental Ability -Level up after collecting awareness points 2) Resistance ability -Level up after collecting defense points 3)Physical ability -Level up after collecting strength points 4)Speed type ability -Level up after collecting agility points The abilities are: a) Basic level--- Has restrictions and limitations b) Moderate Level--- Has lesser restrictions and limitations c) Advanced level--- Has no or rare restrictions *The ability unlock randomly whenever the criteria is fulfilled. All of this is exclusive to MC only. Since s/he had suffered so much, s/he deserves a few leeway I guess? Ps: System is not the main focus as it only gives information and helps to unlock the abilities based on certain criteria. The cultivation Realms Disclaimer: The cultivation relams here are not 100% accurate as I have taken out/added relams as per my wish. 1) Qi Absorption Realm (This realm is the begining of cultivation) 2) Body Enhancement Realm (This realm is about the tempering of body and to cleanse the marrow and meridians for further cultivation.) 3) Foundation building realm (The qi absorbed will be compressed in to spiritual liquid to prepare for formation of golden core) 4)Core formation Realm (As name suggests, in this realm one continues to purify and reform their golden core and strengthen it.) 5) Spirit Enhancement Realm (The spirit is the undying entity of human body so after the formation of golden core, ome starts to enhance their spiritual energy and strengthen primordial spirit.) 6) Nascent Soul Realm (The fusion of Golden core and primordial spirit to form a nascent soul. The first step to immortality.) 7) Deification Realm (Cultivate like a mad man until you can challenge the heaven and survive the heavenly tribulations. Congratulations!! You have become a GOD!) ....... Only those cultivators at or above the spirit enhancement realm can perform sword flights and flying as they are near to the nascent realm which is the foundation of Immortalization. ... One can increase the pace of cultivaton and breakthrough by eating spiritual pills, using magical artifacts and continuous effort!! .... Chapter 1: 1.Truck-Kun strikes again!! This was humanity''s probably last struggle against the heinous creatures of darkness. After this war, there was no doubt... Humanity will cease to exist!!! All the immortal cultivators, even those who were proud in their cultivation base and talent were down on their knees with only one expression pasted on their pale face; defeat! Suddenly there was a flash of blinding light. All it took was this measly one second for everything to end... ____________________________ [Meanwhile on a modern and seemingly normal day on Earth in city C] "You look beautiful." A man whispered in his low voice looking at the bride clad in a white long wedding dress, who was smiling showing her cute dimples. Her face lit up making her look as bright as the sun while the real sunlight falling on her pale smooth skin made it glisten like precious jade. Xin Xiao once again whispered to himself. "...I wish... I was the one holding your hand..." He wore a dull green shirt paired with a shabby jacket and sat in the far corner of the chapel looking lifelessly at the center where the ceremony was going on. "Do you take her to be your bride?" The priest glanced at a tall man who had the silliest smile on his face as he vigorously nodded his head in agreement. "YES, I DO." ''I do too.'' Xin Xiao gave a sincere response in his heart all the while he felt his heart crumble down. "Do you take this man to be your husband?" The priest once again asked in his loud and precise tone looking at the bride through his glasses. The bride stood still without speaking anything. The people seated in there looked at each other in awkward silence. The priest looked at the silent bride with a questionable look. "Do you take him to be your husband?" The priest asked again emphasizing each word. ''Ba-Thump...'' ''Ba-Thump..'' Xin Xiao looked at the silent bride, a small hope igniting in his dead heart. The groom who was smiling like an idiot suddenly turned dark as he looked at her with pitiful eyes. "..Heyy..." He whispered to her trying to get her attention. The bride looked at the groom and playfully bit her lip. She gave him a flirtatious wink before replying joyfully. With his heart thumping as crazy Xin Xiao waited for her answer. "YES...I DO. With all my heart." She looked at the groom with eyes overflowing with emotions and affections all of which were directed at the man on the chapel with her. ''Please don''t.'' He begged in his heart. He was not ready to hear the next statement. "Then I declare...." The priest confirming their answers proceeded to announce their successful marriage. ''''P-Please don''t...'' Xin Xiao wished the world would end right there. But contrary to his wishes the priest completed his statement. "....you Husband and Wife." The whole garden soon filled with claps and cheers as the bride jumped at the groom who caught her in a big hug. She raised her head slightly, her rosy plump lips touching the thin lips of the man in a slow kiss which within a few seconds turned into a passionate one. The crowd gasped at their boldness while some people cheered for them. Some blocked the eyes of their children. ''Don''t look right now.'' A woman giggled lightly blocking her son''s eyes with her hand while looking at her husband flushing slightly. "Heh....what am I even here for?" Xin Xiao looked at the scene dead-eyed. "Just to suffer?" He did not need anyone to answer. He knew it much better than anyone else. He slowly stood up from the bench he was sitting on, the bones in his knees produced a creaking sound. ''Tskk...'' He frowned in pain clutching his deteriorating knees. Taking the support of the bench he slowly got up limping like a cripple. ''If this continues I might become a cripple.'' Xiao made his way out of the garden dragging his sore legs. Before he exited the place he looked back at the bride. "Always be happy." He gave a sad and bitter smile before turning away. No one noticed him leaving just like how no one had noticed him entering. - "Damn..why are my eyes so wet today??." He wiped his teary eyes with the back of his hand as he continued down the lonely street but it couldn''t hold a candle to the emptiness inside his heart. "Must be sand.." He once again wiped his eyes but that only made his eyes more blurry. But the road was clean with not even a speck of dust. He did not see where he was going clearly nor he could think properly. He was just wandering wherever his feet took him. Xin Xiao was once upon a time a loser man and he still was considered a loser in the eyes of society to date. He made barely enough to fill his stomach and there were times when he slept with a hungry stomach shivering on the cold and concrete floor of his cheap rented room in the basement of a building. "Your knees are getting worse." The doctor had sighed looking at the X-Ray report of his knees. He saved up money for a check-up only to learn his knee cap bone had decayed and continued to deteriorate. "Fuck my life...everything sucks...." Xiao cursed gripping his old jacket. Being born poor and an orphan was not his fault and neither was his current situation his fault. One thing led to next and before he knew it he was scraping at the concrete ground day after day in hope of finding a handful of earth. (mud) Limping he continued walking cursing the one who gave him birth and abandoned him on the doorsteps of a temple. He cursed the girl who happily married the man of her dreams shattering his heart to pieces. "Fuck this shitty world." He cursed the world that was unfair and unjust all the while wiping the overflowing water in his eyes. - - "Haiiiiii....." A bald man scratched his obese stomach yawning. ''So sleeepyyyyy.....haiiii...'' He gave another long yawn squeezing out two drops of tears from the corner of his eyes lazily. He shook his head to ward off the sleep that was overtaking him. It was the weekend so the road was empty with only a few vehicles running. That too gave him an excuse to drive lazily. Xin Xiao walked on the zebra crossing to get to the other side of the road sniffling as snot-filled in his nose since he was trying to hold back his tears. *Teet..teeet.....* A loud horn echoed throughout the empty streets startling the shit out of Xin. "Move away." The man on the driver''s seat shouted at him but Xin was too far to hear him and frozen stiff to move his limbs even if he did hear him. "Why this shit is not working!!" The driver was wide awake now and trying to stop the truck but for some reason, it was not stopping. Xin Xiao blankly stared at the Truck which was zooming in on his vision. *Bang.....* *Crash..* With a screech, the Truck stopped after hitting Xin. The driver took off his seat belt and jumped out of the car and went to check up on the dying man he had just hit. A shabby-looking man lay on the road groaning in pain, his clothes soaking in his pool of blood. "Is he dead?" The driver who was scared shitless observed the unmoving body of the man. His consciousness was barely there, Xin looked at the sweating man raising his hand. ''Don''t want to die.'' ''I have to see Yu Yan playing with her kids.They would probably be as cute as her.'' Xin Xiao had only one thought in his mind. His mind was filled with the girl he had loved his entire life. ''H-Hel-lp..'' He could barely speak but managed to get the attention of the driver. Hearing him speak the expression on the driver''s face turned ugly. "This fucker is still alive??" The driver looked around at the empty street and finding no one to bear witness he went to the roadside and returned with a rock as big as his head. "Sorry man...but I don''t want to pay for your fees and I do not want to be charged with hit and run case.....Let me end your and mine, both of our misery." The driver spoke as if he was doing him a favor. ''Ahhh...I knew this world was shitty..'' Xin Xiao stared in silence even when the big rock slammed right on his face. The driver looked at the clump of flesh which just a moment was the face smashed to pulp, with blood splattered everywhere. "W-What have I done??" When it dawned on him that he had made things, even more, complicated the driver panicked. Throwing the stone away and making sure his pulse was dead the driver quickly took off. He had fucked up either way. Xin Xiao felt an excruciating pain which subsided soon only leaving him.. *emptiness* *Darkness....* *Silence* Until there was nothing. - - ''What''s this feeling?? Hmm...it''s soft....a little bit squishy....hmmm.." Xin Xiao slowly groped the heavy bumps on his chest noting down the feeling since he couldn''t see properly, the surrounding where he was at being dark devoid of any light. That was a new feeling to him. '' But somehow...it feels nice..'' "Nice? Squishy?" Xin suddenly remembered an important detail. "I DIED!" He could even remember how it felt when the boulder smashed his head. Question marks filled his thought which came to an abrupt interruption when a mechanical voice greeted him. Beep...Beep.. <20%, 30%...50%...99%.....99.6%....100%) ''What soul and vessel?'' Xin Xiao who was a little slow in understanding things had a blank expression on his face which turned even blanker at the next thing the voice spoke. Chapter 2: Reincarnated in someone elses body?! Xin Xiao quickly got alert when he found himself in a black void and all he could hear was a mechanical sound inside his head. ''Am I inside a void?'' He thought but felt the question in itself was absurd. In a voice that sounded as if it belonged to a small girl, the system made it clear that he had reincarnated. "Second chance at life? Okay okay.." Xin nodded inwardly. "WAIT! A second chance at life? Seriously?... Wait... it''s too unreal to believe¡­" He gasped placing his hands on either side of his cheeks, jaw wide open, they could even touch the ground. " Wait, do you mean, Right now I am someone else?" He asked with caution. ''Is it some kind of after-life scam played by the god of death?'' He had a momentary thought. The tiny voice that was hovering inside his head sighed a little. The voice hovered inside his head like a bumblebee. "...." Fine, I believe you. "If this is not a dream and I am inside someone else''s body, then who are you?" Xin Xiao asked with a curious look on his face. He finally asked. The system had been waiting to explain about its thousand years of grandeur and greatness to the mere human being that had been assigned to it. The system continued. "Oh really?" Xin Xiao asked with a questioning tone. He doubted whatever it said. " Alright! so more or less, you are my assistant.." He concluded her main function in one sentence. Who I am. The system was about to refute but since what he said was almost similar to its work so it decided to shut its mouth. "So where am I at the moment?" He asked to confirm his location. The system once again spoke in its sharp pitched mechanical voice. "Welcome to the world of cultivation??" He repeated what the voice had said to him. "Hmm...Cultivation huh?" He thought and his eyes lit up when he thought of something. "Is it something like cultivating crops and vegetables?" <"....."> He could hear the speechlessness of the system and decided to cut off the joke. "That was a bad joke." Xin Xiao cleared his throat. The system continued in its mechanical voice. "Okay.." He nodded his head and waited for the system to speak. < Currently, the senses of the body have been nullified which means you don''t have any sense of the outer world.> "Does that mean the body I am in is a corpse?" " How?" He asked with doubt. < When there is external stimulus on your body.> <^...^> He didn''t have to ask questions anymore. Because as soon as the system finished talking, a kick landed on his stomach waking him from his delusional slumber. "Wake up¡­you dirty slut." A loud ear-piercing voice spoke coldly and ruthlessly. More than the kick itself or all the curses, his voice hurt the most. But the kick still HURT LIKE CRAZY. "It hurts..." Xin Xiao clutched his stomach, the excruciating pain sobering him up. He finally opened his eyes but still, all he could see was darkness. But it was because they were swollen. Seeing the body sprawled on the floor lost in their thought the boy who had just shouted at him landed another kick on his back. *Crack..* A sound of bone breaking resounded throughout the empty shed. "Arghhh...." Xin cried in pain. He could feel his spine cracking. An electrifying sensation of pain moved towards his brain. He could even feel the signals being sent to and sent by the brain. More than that he could even feel how many cells inside his body died exactly at that moment. He even felt the tiny movement of blood cells and corpuscles. He felt as if he is in a sci-fi movie where he was playing the protagonist undergoing body mutation surgery. <10, 9,.....> Xin Xiao clenched his teeth but while doing so the cracks on the lips of the body opened again and he could taste a salty but sweet taste in his dry mouth. Forget about the taste he could even smell the almost negligible smell of the blood. The pain lasted for a while and ended with the countdown of the system. -The owner of this ability can see the bloodlust, malice, and hostility of any creature directed towards the owner. Limitation- One entity a day -Side effect: Your senses will cloud for 10 sec] The mechanical voice rang inside his head overlapping with the loud snort of the boy from outside. "Tch..you bitch¡­.Behave when your master is here." The boy shouted at him in his usual terrible tone the only difference this time was that the voice was more irritating than before. Xin Xiao wished if he could he would seal his mouth but first, he had to take care of himself and the body he was in. Raising his eyes with a struggle, he looked up. He saw a tall figure standing on the door looking down at him with a dangerous glare while his face had a smug look. He was enjoying looking down at him or the body he was inhabiting to be precise. Even without having to use his ability, he could sense the hatred in his eyes. As for the ability, he was not fond of it as it had a backlash. So he was waiting until he needed to use it. "Heh..This bitch dare to speak back at me." The boy looked at the fiery and angry eyes glaring at him. "Senior brother, why don''t you teach this dog a lesson." A teasing voice was heard. They must be his men Xin thought but he was still not done with the rude boy. "Oho, I don''t want to touch a dirty bitch ..This one is no exception." He smirked looking at Xin showing a high and mighty look. "Ohhhhh¡­" The people outside gave a saddened noise when they realized they could not see another scene. "But don''t worry¡­.." The boy spoke in his pitchy and irritating tone which when added with how dominating he tried to make it sound could make one''s ear bleed in cringe. He looked at Xin Xiao with incomprehensible hatred and malice. "Brothers teach this slut a lesson...And I will stay back and enjoy." He gave an evil smirk as he looked at his brothers, the people who followed him. "Can we?" A boy spoke in an excited voice as soon as he completed what he was saying like as if he had been waiting for this moment since the beginning. "Yes¡­This bitch needs to be shown her right place." "Thank you, senior brother, Thank you, Senior Le." ''This brat is Senior Le?? He looks like a milk-suckling baby..What is with his high and mighty attitude?'' Xin rolled his eyes inwardly as he continued to observe the situation. He knew he had to be calm to not mess up anything. Everything was sudden and the system had gone off temporarily. . The boy quickly rushed over towards the shed and stood beside the person called Senior Le. There was urgency in his step and a mad glint in his eyes. Looking down at the weak and battered body lying on the cold floor, the boy''s expression quickly turned ugly showing a disgusted expression. "What is this ugly hag? Is this even a person?" He wrinkled his brows in an ugly frown. The excitement from before all fell in a swoop. Even his little brother could not stand the sight of the ugly girl. "This is MengMeng?" He squinted his eyes when he looked at Xin again trying to find even a little evidence of what he had heard about MengMeng, the beautiful but illegitimate daughter of Le Family. "Don''t call her MengMeng.." The boy suddenly growled at the boy almost making him jump in fear. He turned his head down to look at the body sneering. Xin Xiao had sweat all over his body as he tried to get up but in vain. He could not feel his leg, they were all numb due to pain and cold. With this body condition, he was not sure he could defend himself if anyone attacked him. ''What is this situation?'' He felt as if he had jumped out from pot into the fire when he sensed the malice in the air emitted by the people around him. "Little Zhen.." Senior Le looked at the boy who had lost his interest in the girl. The way he called him was not the friendly one at any cost. "A-Ah Y-Yes.." Being called like that he almost had his heart skip a beat. He stuttered as he answered him. Senior Le also called Laoling was the spoilt young master of Le family who abused his power and authority without any care. He had these influential and powerful parents to wipe his ass clean even if he made a mess of shit. "If you won''t do it...Then how about you take her place?" Lao Ling put a straight face as he placed his offer before him. "It''s either you or her who gets the goods today." Chapter 3: 3.Little Brother Lost? I am a Girl?! ''Senior bro-tother¡­.W-What do you mean by that?" Zhen Xue stuttered, his face paling at the speed visible to naked eyes. He understood what Le Laoling was implying but he was not ready to believe it. "Ohhh¡­. Seems like our little Zhen can''t understand words." He gave an evil smirk, his eyes plotting a something more fun and gruesome for his enjoyment. "Maybe a little demonstration might help you." He snickered in his irritating voice. "Da Fu, Wu Cheng! Come here." Laoling shouted over to the two bulky man standing guard on the gate of the mansion. Zhen watched the two guards come over in horror. "Yes, young Master." Both of them hurried over leaving their post. Kneeling on the ground they asked why they were called. The other few people whispered among them as they continued enjoying the new drama unfold. They were happy to see people suffer and in misery as long as they were not the part of it. "Young Master Zhen from the Zhen household had come here today¡­.especially to entertain us." Laoling glanced at the pale face of the boy and felt a feeling of superiority rise within him. ''What young master..you are not even qualified to become my servant.'' "Then what orders you have for us?" The man called Da Fu gave a firm response. "Senior brother¡­A-are you serious??" Zhen was already limp on his legs. He belonged to a lower class family than Le Laoling. He was just trying to curry favor with him by being one of his followers but he had never taken this series of events in account. He had come here today since he had heard the beautiful daughter of Le Family was being disciplined. He was there just to enjoy the suffering of the girl and at the same time if fate willed, to be the one to have some fun with her. Ignoring his stuttering voice Laoling turned towards the next guard who was kneeling, with a frown. Ever since he had arrived he was kneeling on the ground without speaking a word. If one did not see his back moving slowly up and down syncing with his breathing they would think he was a statue. "Wu Cheng!" He roared at the silent man. He did not like how he kept silent all the time when he was speaking. "Yes Young Master." Wu Cheng answered automatically as if he was programmed. But his position did not change once. Hearing the response he gave a smirk in triumph. ''Dogs are Dogs after all.'' - Lying on the floor, Xin Xiao frowned when the pain of the body started to intensify as with passage of time, his senses got accustomed with the body and surrounding. It hurt to the point he wished he was dead but like a ray of saving light, the notification rang inside his head. [The body of the host will be numbed according to the degree of pain.] [Limitations- 10 minutes The body of host will be temporarily immobilized for 10 minutes!!] The stat table that appeared out of nowhere flashed in front of Xin Xiao. "????" "Why in the world is the skill active one?" He gasped out. "Erm....sounds like a load of bullshit to be honest." "Y-Yes..." Xin Xiao gasped for air as he answered the system. As if there was a holy shower from the heaven and he was bathing in it, the pain in his body subsided slowly.... And by slowly, it was really slow. The injuries in his body were intact and only the pain was reduced as if he had just taken a painkiller. ''No wonder, its just a pain resistance and not healing ability.'' Since the ability was just a basic level the effect was slow for shorter period of time. ''Welp that means no time to waste.'' He had to make a run for it before he lost the strength in his body. . While Le Laoling was busy chiding his slaves and his followers, the sprawled body on the floor stood up from the floor staggering a little bit. The body he inhabited really was the epitome of battered and shatterd. Xin Xiao dusted off his clothes. Strands of hair covered his eyes as they got stuck on his sweaty and bloody face making the face look like as if it belonged to a madwoman who had run away from an asylum. The slave who was kneeling on the ground, Wu Cheng was the first to notice him. "Young Mi--..." In an impulse he shouted out but soon closed his mouth when he realized that Lao Ling was still there and he could hear him. But he was too late... Lao ling noticed his shout and following his eyes, turned to look at the shed where Xin Xiao was currently at. Through the parted hair, a pair of turquoise eyes were staring at him. Those eyes were the ones he hated the most. Those clear and pure looking eyes resembled the vast mysterious ocean but once you go in depth one would know the true color of it. " So you can finally stand up, huh....Good very good..."Lao ling whose face was twisted in an angry and ugly frown laughed hysterically. "I must have been lenient with you yesterday.....I won''t show mercy today." He roared angrily at Xin Xiao, his fat body shaking uncontrollably in anger. Xin Xiao did not know why this man was making the person he had become suffer like this but given the situation he did not have time to ask about it. "Pfft...What mercy? You are just a coward hiding behind your slaves." Xin Xiao was testing waters when he said this. " Just like now." He motioned towards his followers and slaves that had tagged along with him just to take care of *already injured, almost dying* person. "You are courting death Le Fangling!" With red face; probably due to anger and embarrassment he shouted at the scrawny body inside the shed. ''So, my name is Le Fangling huh?'' Xin Xiao got one information from this. But he felt there was something girly about this name..but..well never mind about that.Xin Xiao looked at the number of people present. There were only two options for him now. Either he should give in to the flow and be overwhelmed by them to not raise any suspicion on his identity. Or ....currently he had no idea. He knew he could not fight all these people and escape from here successfully. Just when he waa contemplating on what should be done in this situation, the notification rang again. < The awareness of the host has increased potentially.> Your awareness attribute has increased by +2 "....", Xin Xiao grimaced. This was a weird time for him to get something. "Nope, I just arrived here so, I am totally clueless." ''Two moons you say..'' He nodded his head. "Aight...I will hear the rest of the tale later~~" The story aboit the moon could not help him to fend off the pickle he was in, especially when Laoling was staring at him like a wounded beast, his body emitting a layer of red aura. Xin Xiao wanted to check the hostility he possessed towards him but the backlash was stopping him from doing so. "Grandmaster Lan is here." Someone shouted from the outside. "Grandmaster Lan is here." The voice again repeated. "Senior Le, Grandmaster Lan is here." A boy came running huffing. "Fucking wrong time..Tch¡­." Le Lao ling had a ugly and scary look on his face but the red aura surrounding his body quickly disappeared. "Fuck that old man..he had to arrive just when things were getting fun." He gave a deadly glare at the one who brought the message. "I am leaving." He turned around from the shed and started walking towards the main house. "Da Fu, Wu Cheng¡­Clean up this mess." He ordered the two men. "And you people.." He hissed at the onlookers and his so called little brothers and followers. "Scram.." Leaving Le Fangling who was still inside the house and the disappointed crowd he haughtily walked away as fast as he could. . " That was nerve wrecking..." He let out a sigh looking at the dispersing crowd and thanked the arrival of this man called Grandmaster Lan. The pain in his body was again returning back as ten minutes was about to be up, so with a loud thump he sat down on the floor to rest now that the worst had passed. He could feel his body losing the ability to move. He was being immobilized like how it had said in warning. But that was when he realized something amiss..... ''Why is it not here? W-where did it go?'' Xin Xiao felt an unprecedented emptiness on his crotch area which felt lighter than ever. He hurriedly placed his hand there but found nothing. His little brother was gone, literally it had disappeared in thin air. ''Poof.'' Seeing the young lady pale, Wu Cheng who was asked to stay behind asked Xin Xiao. "My lady, is anything wrong?" Although that was a wrong question to ask since the body was covered with wounds and injuries all over Wu Cheng did not have time to consider it. ''My lady..'' Xin Xiao had a bad premonition. "What did you call me?" He faced the man with a blank face. "My lady?" He answered with a confused expression. Xin Xiao did not need anymore explanation. He understood everything. Clasping his hands on his face he shook as he laughed. No wonder there was squishy feeling, no wonder the name was girly when he heard it. All pieces came and joined forming up the picture he was missing. "Young miss?!" Wu Cheng looked at her. Taking a deep breathe Xin Xiao shouted. "THIS LAOZI BECAME A FREAKIN'' WOMAN." Chapter 4: 4.Shimmering hot bath in a pond! ''YOUNG MISS HAS GONE MAD!!'' Wu Cheng screamed inside his head his jaw almost dropping to the floor showing his shocked expression. Even Da Fu who was waiting by the door, leaning on the wall almost slipped and fell down flat on his face when he heard the outrageous roar of the little miss. "M-Miss¡­."Da Fu tried approaching Le Fangling who was still curled up like a ball slightly trembling. The system, "¡­." ''Did I just speak out loud?!'' She wanted to smack herself in her face but refrained herself to prevent looking even more out of character. "I mean, I am such a strong woman¡­Wahahahah¡­" Le Fangling realized she had actually almost¡­Yes..by a tiny bit she almost let the cat out of bag. "Cough cough¡­." There was a stinging pain inside her chest when she tried to move around. There was a sharp pain and before she could come back from the pain, she coughed out a mouthful of blood. ''Ah.no wonder...'' Le Fangling stopped moving and tried to calm down her body that was trembling due to pain. She leaned back on the old and smelly wood wall of the shed and tossed and turned around until she found a comfortable position. "Young miss¡­Let us take you to the family doctor." Wu Cheng hurried towards her and kneeled down right in front of Le Fangling. He looked guiltily at her and shook his head while he clutched his fingers in to a tight fist. He was helpless against the absolute law of the slaves. Obedience to their masters,their ultimate mark of slavery. His hands unconsciously reached to his necks where there was a brownish red collar. He could not do anything but look silently when the young miss of the family was beaten till not a single place in her body was left intact. Taking the chance of the main master and mistress going to the imperial palace, Le Laoling beat the shit out of Le Fangling in the name of training. Seeing the young miss silent, Wu Cheng was anxious and he approached her once again. Le Fangling currently did not trust anyone in this world she had transmigrated in to. ''Hey, system can you heal me?'' She spoke in her head hoping the system will answer. "Cough¡­Don''t I have enough spiritual energy?" The emotionless voice of system once again rang inside her head. The system finished its quick but informative session. "Ohh..I see¡­" Le Fangling nodded her head as she briefly got the idea of the place she was at and how it worked. She remembered about the red aura covering the little brat from before which further enhanced her knowledge of this world. That Laoling guy was also a cultivator. She was glad to not have confronted her head on in a fight. "I will be fine, Wu Cheng¡­ You can go now." Le Fangling noticed that the man was still waiting for her answer. "But Miss¡­" Wu Cheng tried to reason with her but he stood up and quietly went outside and stood beside Da Fu guarding the door. ''Then are you suggesting me to go to the house?'' Le Fangling had a gut feeling it was a bad idea to jump into the place where the lunatic boy was in such a weak condition. ''Then what do you suggest I do?'' Xin Xiao who was new to this had a trouble catching on to its word. He was barely catching up with what the system was saying with his head now buzzing silently. The fact that his meridians have been injured meant a lot of trouble when he tries to cultivate in future. "Can I somehow stabilize my spiritual energy?" Le Fangling asked the system inside her head as she knew she was about to faint any second now. Her eyelids drooped clouding his senses. She wanted to resist it but it was getting harder to do so with each passing moment. I can''t fall asleep! She pinched her already broken skin in her things which some how brought back the sanity she was about to lose. Falling asleep under this conditions means it was similar to courting death. She was going to resist this drowsiness. She was determined in his heart. [The host can activate this skill to resist sleep.] [limitations- 10 minutes The host will fall into deep slumber after the 10 minutes time is up!!] Le Fangling looked at the blue transparent screen that appeared in front of her once again. She had no idea what this ability will be useful for but he was happy to have acquired another new skill. As an insomniac person, he thought it was wasted on him nevertheless. Until now he had acquired three skills; Heavenly sensation, Pain resistance and sleep resistance. Although all of them looked awesome, Xin Xiao wanted to cry salty tears because of their limitation and criteria. "What about my question from before?" Le Fangling asked painstakingly as she held on to the last thread of her consciousness. The stats tab grew brighter shade of blue. The sudden glow made her widen his eyes in surprise and looked at the two guards who were waiting for her cautiously. She almost felt that they could also see this flying screen. . A simple map appeared on the tab screen with blue and red dots. Looking closely she saw tiny green dots far away from these dots. As for the graphics¡­she did not have much to say about it. It was a two dimensional map but it did the trick. As for the whole map, she only recognized the blue mass as some kind of water reserve. As for other weird things¡­Ahemm..she meant symbols on the map she had no idea. Instead of wracking his brain, she decided to wait for the system to start its description. The mechanical voice of the system like how she had expected rang inside his head. on the blue map which she had thought to be water body, an arrow appeared. ''What is it? A water body?'' Ignoring the pain in the body she asked the system raising her eyebrows. Le Fangling gestured at the brown pile of who knows what. "¡­..", Someone please tell the system it sucked at drawings. Le Fangling did not whether to laugh or pity the system. It''s fine. Everyone has their own weaknesses. She gave imaginary back pats to the system. "Okay, Back to the topic. What am I supposed to do there?" Le Fangling had a feeling she was going to hear something unexpected from the system and what she heard was more than enough to confirm the strange feeling in her heart. Chapter 5: To the southern forest "But I..cough cough¡­.I can''t walk in this condition." Le Fangling pointed at her tattered body and clutched her chest when the suffocating feeling returned once again. Covering her mouth, she once again coughed violently. ''Hey, am I going to die like this?'' Stretching out the blood covered hand in front of her, she asked in a tiny voice to the system while she limply lied on the ground due to the immobilization. "¡­.", "Heh, you are kind missy." Le Fangling laughed inside her head complementing the system that sounded like a loli girl from anime. Although the mechanical voice was cold and harsh, What it said made Le Fangling feel a little bit happy. Hearing the rustle of the hay inside the shed, Da Fu and Wu Cheng who were standing guard outside the door got alert and peeked inside the shed. "Miss, Do you want us to help you?'' Da Fu came forward in large stride and stood in front of Le Fangling. ''Right, I am a miss here.'' Le Fangling sighed and looked at the mountain like tall people before her. "I want to go somewhere. Can you take me there?" Without much expression Le Fangling looked at Da Fu. "What about your injuries?" He asked with a worried face. Although he had been silent all this time he was concerned about her injury. "I will get them treated soon, for now, help me get to the southern forest. Real quick." Le fangling was not able to walk all that distance by herself. "The southern forest? Isn''t it where the forbidden pond is sealed?" Wu Cheng who was probing in to their conversations spoke when he heard the name of southern pond and sealed area inside the forest. ''Oii¡­what are they talking about? It''s forbidden?'' Le Fangling asked the system who in response said nothing. ''Wow, selfish guy, speaking when he wants and keeping silent when it doesn''t wants,¡­" "Yes, I have an important task there." Le Fangling thought for a while before speaking again. "Please keep this matter a secret from the elder brother." She knew if that scum bag found out even a spec of dirt on her he will say he found a pile fo dung on her in exaggeration. "I¡­." If Laoling asked about her then they will have to open their mouth so they were not sure about promising her. "We will try our best." Da Fu bowed down and extended his hands in front of Le Fangling. "¡­", What are you doing kneeling on the ground like that? His postures seemed identical to somehow a man proposing his bride and that brought back unpleasant memories to her. "This humble servants requests to get permission to carry the young lady." "Ohh...okay, lift me up." Le Fangling allowed Da Fu to come over and carry her. [Hostility: 10% Empathy: 45% Sympathy: 90% Malice: 1% Bloodlust: 20%] Only after getting the green flag from the system, Le Fangling allowed herself to be carried in a freaking bridal carry. With Da Fu carrying Le Fangling in a princess carry, they exited the mushy smelling dark shed. ''It''s just a princess carry, nothing more, Be happy you are still alive idiot.'' The then male, now female Le Fangling consoled her broken heart. Once outside from the wretched shed, Le Fangling took a long breathe filling his lungs to the brim. She smiled unconsciously at the fragrant floral scent that filled his lungs. She could never forget this fragrance even after her death. "Cherry blossoms¡­." A blessed smile appeared on her face. She unwillingly let out her breathe with a deep sigh. "I missed this scent." "I finally saw you smile, young miss." Da Fu honestly was mesmerized by her pure looking smile despite her face looking like a scrunched piece of metal can. "I never smiled before?" Le Fangling was surprised when she heard the remark from the guard. It made her wonder what kind of hellish life the body had been living before she took over. "In the one month time that you have come here, its my first time seeing the young miss smiling." Da Fu nodded his head answering her. ''Bingo!'' Le Fangling got another important piece of information. "Da Fu, Who is this Grandmaster Lan?" Curiously, Le Fangling asked the man carrying her. "Grandmaster Lan, they called him right?" He remembered this name. After all it was this name that saved him. "Hmm...Grandmaster Lan? He is the friend of the old master of the Le Family but he belongs to the Eternal Blossom Sect in the north." "I am not sure why is he here at this time though. I thought he would be busy with recruiting new disciples." Da fu was thoughtful for a while. "But don''t you know this already?" He gave a weird look to Le Fangling. "I know, its just that my memory has been a bit fuzzy these past few days." Le Fangling hurriedly averted her gaze and answered calmly. This man is sharp. ''Oof...'' Le Fangling breathed out the breathe she had been holding in. "¡­.", Le Fangling made a face at the system who seeemes to be enjoying at this point. ''What about you? Don''t you know about him?'' She wanted to check if the system was omnipotent and all-seeing divine entity. . The system laxly said as if it drinking a cup of coffee when it answered Le Fangling. .
