Cultivating Ranks

Today, is a new day! I found out this morning that Zixie can become invisible. Not only that, he can disappear into my storage realm. But, I can't believe it, my storage never opened up and I had to always use physical bags instead! I knew about my storage being locked up and never opening that's why I didn't think about how he could go inside my storage, but how is this possible?

He told me that he didn't know about this either and just found out while I was sleeping. Zixie also said it was strange because everybody's storage are different, but it just isn't like mine. Mine is able to carry a capacity of infinity and living beings, while others have capacity rate and cannot carry living beings unless they own a storage bag called Howling Wind.

But that's impossible to own because there is only one in this whole entire world and the person who owns it is Wu Hueling. When I heard his name, I was so shocked, but what can you do. When I read the book, it said that Prince Wu was a very powerful man with many treasures. Also rich, but he is a prince after all, what do you expect. *cough cough*

Well, at least I also learned something else. And this is how I got myself into trying to become a cultivator.

"Xiao Ling! You can't just do that immediately! You'll harm yourself!"

"*Sigh*, Zixie, you gave me a bunch of books to study and said that these were books to speed up my cultivation. I read all of them and did all of them already, you don't need to worry."

"This is the last position from the last book. It was the most hardest difficulty because you had to be at a certain ranking first, but I already achieved all of them over the past month."

"I know, it's just... I'm being cautious okay!? A normal person would take at least half a year to learn not even a half of these books. I gave you 64 books to study because I thought you would need them to cultivate. I was trying to think of a way to attract your red string of fate faster because thats what Overlord Father said. Not only that.."

"Zixie, I thought you said you knew everything about me. I guess you didn't know about my cultivation skills, nor do you know about the fact that my body is a different from others."

"Of course I knew your body was different from others!"

"Zixie, let me tell you, during my 9 years of working as a secretary for Lu Ming, I have been cultivating with his guidance. I never knew why he wanted me to learn how to cultivate. But it's been 9 years and with that let me tell you, I have already reached the status as a saint."

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

"What! That's impossible! I mean not for me because naturally I was born with the status of holy, but you are a human! It takes at least 3 to 4 decades at least to reach that level. And even if someone was able to reach it at a young age, it was mostly due to the fact that they had the help of medicine and other things. Did you?"

"Of course not, I did, I would have been long dead. Boss Lu didn't want me to take them because they had horrible side affects. The only time he let me get aide was when I was stuck and almost able to reach a new breakthrough. He would give me a pill that let me go through a breakthrough with no side affects. As for the ones others eat, they die by the end."

What Zixie said isn't wrong. It would normally take many decades to just reach the level of a Saint.

In the cultivating world, there are 5 ranks, with 3 levels each. The 3 levels were beginner, mid, and high. The 5 ranks were Beginner, Meridian, Advance, Saint, and Holy. There is another 3 hidden ranks that not many knows about. Immortal, Demonic, and Godly. Those 3 were close to impossible to reach, but of course, my boss, Lu Ming, is a rank of high-Godly. That's why I could never oppose him.

"I don't believe you."

"Hey, you should know better than me. If I have then, would I be standing here?"

"No..."

"Ling Ling, breakfast is here. Bro Xie, you should join us!"

"Alright!"

And with that we ate breakfast before getting disturbed by the morning call of a runner. The Madam had summon us to the hall.

I wonder what it is? The Madam had never called for us ever since we've stepped into the mansion.

With that, I got dressed and left the Winter Court. While walking, I was talking to Hao'er about daily tasks I had to get done. I wanted to tell Hao'er about the fact that I'm not from this world, but, I could never bring my mouth to open. Maybe soon, though.

"Mistress, what do you think Madam summoned every woman in the mansion for?"

"I have no idea. I only know that Prince Wu had come home, but I definitely don't think it is about celebrating the fact that he's come back from a long time battle."

"Mistress, do you think somebody is getting punished, then?"

"Well, that's not a bad guess. Since ancient times, it has always happened..."

Wait, I remember this scene from the book. The prince had just come back and had almost been fed an aphrodisiac from a maid. The maid was heavily punished in front of others with a whip until she died. The scene was described as bloody.

Somehow, I'm quite happy that I read the book. I can at least know what to do to avoid strange situations that I don't want to get involved in. Like getting on the Madam's bad side. Both the Madam and Prince Wu, have a super cold personality, but the Madam is a safer option.

Of course, I chose someone else, too. The second male lead, Shu Xienghao, the male leads best friend and a smart fellow. He's a talented and handsome man just like Prince Wu, but he is kind man, so I'd rather run my buttocks to him. Still, I want to please the head of the house which is the Madam, so that I can live.

"Hao'er, huh... I wanted to take a break today, but yet, it doesn't seem like it."

"What do you mean?"

"Whenever I see someone from the Wu Clan, I feel so much stress build."

"Why do you say so? As the prince's woman, you should be happy to see him and please him."

"Right, hehe... It's just... Let's just say that I wasn't the one who wanted the marriage, nor did I want to become a daughter of a household, or become a concubine. I just wanted to live peacefully in my own little space that I had. Dammit! This is all Zixie's fault! The next time I see that phoenix, I'm going to chop to him in half!"

"Mistress Xiu, please lower your tone! You never know who could be around."

I took a look the man-made pond, the sidewalk, the pagoda, and everywhere else, but saw no one and sighed a breath of relief. Hao'er is right, I shouldn't be breaking loose outside of my court like this. I could be killed just for something like this.

Meanwhile, Prince Wu and Shu Xienghao was walking to the main hall together. Prince Wu had picked up Shu Xienghao from the main gates.

"Wow, Bro, I feel sad for you. Hehe, a woman with a fierce attitude."

Prince Wu merely casts a look towards the main hall where Zhao Ling is headed. 'She doesn't deserve to be a woman I own. Which family is she from?'

"Let's go! Your mother is already waiting such a long time for you."

With that, Prince Wu left to the main hall.
