Chapter 90
"s.h.i.+t, how could you cheat me like this. Next time, can’t you give me a healthier body?" It was really painful, alright? Only after using all of her spiritual power was she able to barely restore the meridians in her right hand.
Her forehead was covered in sweat, adding another layer of messiness to her already dirty appearance. She swallowed a XiSui pill and DaHuan pill from her inventory.
XunMi felt as if the system was doing this on purpose. Why else would the system rewards from the previous world just coincidentally be something that she needed in this new world?
She sighed, she needed consoling.
"BaoBao, give me this world’s mission." She calmed the disorderedly spiritual power in her body.
BaoBao appeared midair. Seeing Madam Host’s appearance, he shrieked. [Ah! Madam Host why do you look like this?]
Her red silk gown was covered in gra.s.s and mud. Her face was battered and exhausted, covered in dried red marks of blood. Her hair was already knotted as of she had been sleeping in a garbage heap.
XunMi didn’t have the time to complain though. She weakly gave a side glare to BaoBao.
BaoBao quickly shut his mouth and transferred the original body’s memories to his host. Finally, he pulled out the mission board. [Madam Host. The main mission is to change the original body’s fate and counterattack the fake lead (the reincarnated girl). The side mission is to help the real Female Lead to become a winner of life. The hidden mission will be discovered when we start. Additionally Madam Host, this is a five star world. However, the difficulty is equivalent to a six star.]
XunMi was busy digesting the memories added into her head. Hearing BaoBao’s words, she blinked in surprise. "Why?" This had never happened before.
[The reincarnated girl has a Mary Sue halo effect. But don’t worry Madam Host! BaoBao also gave you a bit of a female lead halo effect. All you have to do is be on good terms with the real Female Lead to initiate the effects of your halo.] BaoBao excitedly spoke. This was a reward he had earned by betting against others that his Madam Host would successfully receive a S evaluation grade in the punishment world.
The veins in XunMi’s forehead was almost visible. She couldn’t even use the female lead halo right now? She was currently no better than paralyzed. She couldn’t even move the slightest.
The reason the original soul was here was due to Liu ZhenXin’s scheming. After ruining her meridians and bones, she had been pushed into Death’s Eye.
Death’s Eye got its name because, standing on the top of the cliff, this pit had the shape of an eye. The ‘death’ part was because those that fell from above had a survival rate of close to zero. Moreover, this was a common place for high level demon beasts to appear.
In her current state, XunMi was a sheep roasting over a fire.
With great difficulty, she used her
The restoration powers of the DaHuan pill was quick. After just half an hour, the spiritual energy in her body had also recovered. As for the muscles in her legs and left hand, she would need to eliminate the impurities blocking her inner power first being able to apply spiritual powers on them. If she wanted to restore her ability to the extent of using a sword, it would take at least two years. _(:зゝ∠)_
However, the plotline had already advanced to the point where Liu ZhenXin was about to meet Tian Xuan. That means Ouyang HanShuang would be transmigrating over in about two years.
Aiya, that would be perfect timing. If she wasn’t worried about going against her established personality, XunMi would have pulled her head back and cackled.
This Liu XunMi was an arrogant person. From her childhood, she had received others’ praises due to her talent and beauty. This helped cultivate her sense of superiority, but it wasn’t too extreme.
Her att.i.tude was straightforward. She never schemed. Instead, she would speak honestly. If someone were to beat her in battle, she would bow down to them. This was all the information available about her in the original book. When she realized her meridians were blocked and her spiritual power was all but gone, with little chances of being restored, Liu XunMi’s strong personality could not accept her new fate. When facing demon beasts, she didn’t even have time to struggle before she was eaten.
Just thinking about that image, XunMi s.h.i.+vered in fear. She definitely did not want to become a demon beast’s lunch meal. With the pa.s.sing of time, the impurities within XunMi’s bodies slowly emitted out. Soon, XunMi found herself wrapped within a pungent, acrid smell.
But she couldn’t even move right now, nor could she use any spiritual power to clean her body. This had to be the most pathetic XunMi had ever felt out of all the worlds she’s experienced.
She vowed that as soon as she was better, she would have Liu ZhenXin experience this journey too. Meanwhile, BaoBao quietly hid within a tree, watching with interest as his Madam Host tried to hide back her anger.
After three hours, she had finally finished was.h.i.+ng out the impurities within her body. Her body was completely covered with a layer of s.h.i.+ny black substance.
The only thing worth rejoicing was that her meridians were now all unblocked, and the muscles in her left hand were restored. The veins and muscles in her legs had just enough spiritual energy and should be completely back to normal within a year.
"BaoBao, is there anything in the system market that I could use?" XunMi pulled at her clothing. This smell really was a danger to her nostrils.
[There’s a bucket of health water. A clean wardrobe. A tent, and a protective force field. All for a grand total of twenty-three thousand eight hundred points. Madam Host, would you like to buy it?] BaoBao pulled on some tree leaves and hurled himself to XunMi’s side, swaying back and forth while speaking.
"My G.o.d, what a scam. A bucket of water, some clothes, a tent, and a force field are twenty thousand? Why don’t you just start directly stealing money from me instead?" XunMi erupted. She had completely these missions so cautiously. Even as she worked herself to death, she had only been able to earn just a little bit of points. But for just this package, she would have to part with one-third of her points?
BaoBao pitifully looked down at his paws. [Madam Host, you currently don’t have the ability to protect yourself. You have to buy the protective force field. Madam Host, this world is pretty cool. There’s an ability to conceal your presence so that those demon beasts won’t discover you. Isn’t that so cool?] BaoBao bounced up and down as he tried to sell the pros of this world.
XunMi withered. BaoBao telling her that she didn’t have the ability to protect herself really hit her in the heart. With gritted teeth, XunMi angrily bought the package.
She’s just going to add this to the list of things she intends to get back at Liu ZhenXin for. If not because of her, she would never have ended up like this.
BaoBao obediently helped open up the lid of the bucket, causing a stream of water to pour down. When XunMi felt the water land on her, she almost jumped out of her skin.
It was early March, spring weather hadn’t even arrived yet. Immediately, XunMi sneezed from the coldness as she s.h.i.+vered. Her pungent smell was gone but now she was frozen from head to toe.
XunMi shot an angry glare at BaoBao, her teeth chattering as she spoke. "BaoBao, come down. I promise I won’t beat you to death."
