Chapter 6: We Will Get Even
The excruciating pain finally stopped. Gao Lan Mei did not know how long it took for all her bones to finish repairing and be reced. All she knew was that she needed to endure it silently. At the very least, it was now over.
Currently, her bones were ideal for cultivation. They were above mortal standard. Sadly, she still couldn''t feel any spiritual energy. Checking her pulse, she found no poison. Her meridians were also not blocked. This body just didn''t have an innate talent for cultivation.
<em>''How could this be?''</em> Gao Lan Mei thought to herself.
With the memories of the previous owner of the body, she learned that in the Gao Family, there were cultivators that were even scouted to live in the Immortal Domain. That meant that with the talent that the Gao Family had, it was confusing to have someone from the main branch who couldn''t cultivate.
Thus, for her to even reach the first-degree of cultivation, she might need external assistance. Incidentally, that was also the case during her previous life. It would be very difficult, but still manageable as long as she had enough resources.
From her previous life, she was lucky since her father''s subordinates had helped her be strong enough to be able to defend herself against even immortal degree cultivators.But that was the limit. They couldn''t teach her more while they were all trapped. Even when she managed to free them, teaching her more was still impossible.
"Miss, how was it?" Feng Ji offered the clean set of clothes to Gao Lan Mei. She was proud of her master. She couldn''t even imagine the pain of bones being reced but Gao Lan Mei did it without screaming.
The rebirth pill was supposed to be for cultivators, not mortals. Who, in this mortal domain, could do what she did while not having any spiritual energy?
"It''s finished," Gao Lan Mei replied as she took the clean set of clothes from Feng Ji.
"Miss!" Feng Ji eximed. While she changed her clothes, the child saw the w marks and scars running across Gao Lan Mei''s body.
While shey in bed, Gai Lan Mei already knew that parts of her body might be scarred. It''s a good thing that her back didn''t have any wounds or else she would not have been able to sleep as it would be difficult to even lie down.
She saw Feng Ji getting upset about the scars. cing her hand on top of the child''s head as a form offort, "We will get even. You just enjoy ying with them in the meantime."
Her tone was indifferent, but Feng Ji knew that Gao Lan Mei meant what she said. <em>''We will get even. Soon.''</em>
"Miss, one more thing. I heard that the Ye family made it hard for the minister to get you a blood replenishing pill. Because of that, your father is currently sick."
Feng Ji''s expertise was in collecting information. Initially, she did not intend to worry about anything aside from getting the rebirth pill. However, the left minister''s family had saved the miss. If not for their effort, the miss would have still been a wandering spirit. Who knew how long she would wander?
It''s unfortunate that the original Gao Lan Mei was not able to make it, but it seemed to be fated as the miss was verypatible with the body or else it would have already been mentioned that something was wrong.
"Ye family?" Lan Mei kept them in mind. <em>''One more family to get even with,''</em> she thought. From the previous owner''s memory, the left minister''s family didn''t have any grudge with them.
"Get more details on the Ye Family," she ordered. She would personally deal with these peopleter. All those that made the previous Gao Lan Mei''s life hard would surely get what they deserved. For now, her main priority was to cultivate. To be strong enough that they could not do anything to stop her when she did what she pleased.
"Understood, miss." Feng Ji said obediently, then changed to her sparrow form and flew outside while wondering if she could burn the Ye family''s houses too. <em>''No, probably something different,''</em> Feng Ji thought.
