The Reincarnation of the Ruler

Awal

"engh" the cry of a girl sleeping on the straw signifies that the girl awoke from her long slumber.

"Where is this?" The girl asked herself after waking up and looking at her sleeping state on a haystack inside a hut that was about to collapse.

"what are these clothes? so ancient! and didn't I die from that shot why am I here?"

"you were in the body of a girl in the past. Your name is Xue Yuan Li. Destiny throws you into this world to avenge"

"revenge huh? well will I do" Xue Yuan Li replied steadily. Yuan asked the foreign voice to explain about the life and past of the body of the girl he occupied. The foreign voice replied clearly and in detail.

"so this girl is a wasted princess because of a mistake she didn't make? how cruel"

"this world adheres to the jungle system, you should be able to awaken the cultivation within you. Meet someone who lives at the western end of this forest, there you can train to become strong" Xue Yuan Li nodded in understanding.Simplely then the voice disappeared and was no longer heard.

Yuan Li walked out of the hut to look for food. His stomach is hungry now. For so long he walked, Yuan Li finally found a towering apple tree.

"let's think, how do I climb in a long dress like this?" thought Yuan Li with a little annoyance.

Yuan Li tried to climb up the tall apple tree with little distress due to her long dress.

"doesn't it matter if I tear this shirt off? but I have no other clothes" Yuan Li lamented as he was unable to climb a tree to pluck apples. He's very hungry now.

"Hey miss!? what are you doing there!?" Yuan Li looked back. He could see a young man with blue black hanfu on his knees and long hair tied up looking at him with a strange look.

"i wanted to pluck the apple, but this shirt was very disturbing my movements" the man looked up at the many apples hanging on the high branches.

"let me help" said the man, then climbed up a tree, picked some apples and went back down.

The man gave his apple to Yuan Li and was well received by her.

"What's your name?Why would a little girl like you be able to be in the middle of a forbidden forest like this alone" Yuan Li finished the apple in his hand and replied.

"My name is Yuan Li, I was banished by my father due to a mistake I did not make" Yuan Li explained casually.

"so bad, where are you going?" Ask the man named Aling Zhu earlier.

"go look for a teacher at the western end of this forest, then become strong and take revenge" Yuan Li replied.

"want me to go with the little girl? it just so happens that the person you're looking for is my teacher, the only person who lives at the western end of this forest"

"that's good, then come on"

The two of them then went towards the West of the forest to meet with teacher Xiao Yue.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

"this teacher is Yuan Li, he wants to learn to cultivate"

After two days of walking down the trees, Aling and Yuan Li arrived at the place where teacher Xiao Yue was.

Xiao Yue observed Yuan Li intensely. Teacher Xiao Yue saw the strangeness in Yuan Li.

"young man, have you never trained your body and increased your cultivation?"

Yuan Li replied with a sledgehammer. "I didn't have time to do it. My father doesn't allow me to practice"

"It's a pity, then here you must be a strong person with high cultivation" teacher Xiao said and was reciprocated by a nod of spirit from Yuan Li.

while Aling Zhu only listened to their conversation while preparing firewood to make fire.

"Yuan'er help me catch a fish" Aling Zhu stepped foot into the river followed by Yuan Li who ran over him.

"Hiss you don't just be noisy! help me catch him"

"ay ye ye, I don't want my clothes to get wet"

"oy, then take this"

Xiao Yue smiled faintly at the small quarrel of Aling Zhu and Yuan Li. His old eyes implied a happiness that would never come to an end.

'They will be my strongest successors'

Starting at night, after dinner with a grilled fish menu made by Aling Zhu, the three of them had a light conversation.

"Yuan'er, I want to ask you something"

"please teacher, I'll try to answer"

"what's your name and where are you from?"

"Yuan Li, from the bamboo village" Yuan Li lied? of course not. The bamboo village is where her mother was born.

"Bamboo village? where's it?" asked Aling Zhu in surprise. He had never heard of the bamboo village before.

"a village in Xi's imperial territory" Yuan Li replied. Teacher Xiao's forehead frowned deeply.

"didn't the bamboo village have long since disappeared?" ask teacher Xiao.

"well, that's right. But only a part of it disappeared. The rest is still there"

"i had been there a while ago, and the village was gone without a trace. That region had already turned into where the demons lived"

Yuan Li only smiled faintly. "the place really still exists if the teacher dares to trace the territory the demons live in"

"well, why didn't your father allow you to cultivate?"

"so that I don't rebel, maybe. Teachers can see it, right? my dantian is sealed making me unable to do anything"

"why are you here?"

"dumped by my own father, of course"

"how could a father possibly throw away his own daughter" Aling Zhu asked. Although Yuan Li had said it before, Aling Zhu wanted to know what the reason was.

"my father's concubine did it. The pair of children and the mother were not satisfied if they did not become rulers"

At midnight, Master Xiao returned to the place where he lived. While Aling Zhu took Yuan Li to go to the cave where he lived.

"You sure I'm sleeping here?"

"of course. You have nothing to fear, my mother taught me to be a polite and dignified young man"

"i believe you" Yuan Li laid his body on a flat, long rock that was shaped like a bed. Hard indeed, but comfortable enough to rest.

Aling Zhu went towards another part of the cave. The cave that Aling Zhu lives in has a structure like a building in general. Has a box in some places.

Yuan Li tried to close his eyes. Tomorrow he has to do his first training. But his mind floated. He thought about how his life would go. A world foreign to him. People he doesn't know. Yuan Li lived here with instinct and the memory of the owner of the body only.

"i hope it goes well"
