Chapter 195 The Female Immortal Cultivator Wasteful 1
Chapter 195 The Female Immortal Cultivator Wasteful 1
The atmosphere in the main hall of the Lincheng City Lord's Mansion was oppressive, like the dead silence before a storm. Lin Ruan knelt upright on the cold, hard stone floor, her knees already worn raw. Crimson blood seeped through the hem of her skirt, staining the ground. Around her, the Lin family members sat or stood, their cold gazes piercing her like needles.
Sitting high up, City Lord Lin's face was so gloomy it looked like water could drip out of it. Her eyes were filled with disgust and impatience. She slammed the table so hard that the lid of the teacup jumped a few times and shouted, "Lin Ruan, you are a concubine of the Lin family. You have not yet formed a pill. You are a disgrace to the family! Keeping you in the mansion is a waste of resources. Today, you will be expelled from the Lin family. From now on, you will have nothing to do with our Lin family!"
Lin Ruan's heart was filled with endless sadness and resentment. Her frail body trembled slightly. She raised her tear-stained yet stubborn face, tears in her eyes, and her voice was trembling but firm: "Mother, I have been practicing diligently day and night, and have never slacked off. It's just that the opportunity has not arrived yet... I hope you can give me another chance."
"Hmph, no need to say more! There's no point in saying more. Come, kick her out immediately!" City Lord Lin waved his hand impatiently, his tone firm, leaving no room for maneuver.
Lin Ruan's elder sister, Lin Yue, approached with a light yet arrogant stride. A mocking smile curled her lips, her eyes filled with contempt as she looked down at Lin Ruan and said sarcastically, "Sister, don't waste your energy struggling. For a useless waste like you, leaving the Lin family is the best fate. Do you really expect to live a life of free food and drink in the Lin family?"
After saying that, she raised her foot and kicked Lin Ruan hard on the back.
Lin Ruan was caught off guard, thrown forward by the kick and falling heavily to the ground, her forehead colliding with the stone slab, drawing blood immediately. She gritted her teeth, clenching her fists tightly, her nails digging into her palms, but she stubbornly refused to cry out in pain, let alone beg for mercy. From childhood, in this cold Lin family, she had endured an endless stream of cold stares and bullying, simply because of her status as a concubine's daughter and her unrevealed talent for cultivation. Now, she was about to be ruthlessly expelled.
After being driven out of the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Ruan dragged her wounded, shaky body, trudging out of the city one arduous step at a time. Each step seemed to exhaust all her strength, leaving a trail of bloody footprints behind her. Finally, she arrived at a dilapidated temple outside the city. The temple had long been abandoned, its gates crooked and its roof riddled with holes, letting in a cold wind.
Lin Ruan staggered into the dilapidated temple and leaned against the corner of the wall covered with dust and cobwebs. Her body could no longer support her and she slowly slid down.
Then, Lin Ruan, who had traveled through time, took over this body. The original owner's body was too fragile, and Lin Ruan's soul was too strong. As soon as he took over, the original owner's scarred body showed signs of collapse.
Lin Ruan didn't dare to waste any more time, and quickly slipped into the space, immersed his body in the spiritual liquid lake to repair and optimize it, and began to accept the original owner's memories.
After a while, she smiled. This time, the world that Dog Seventeen found was really good.
In this world, men's status is lower than that of women. How low is it? Even the air repels them.
If a boy is born without a female contract, he will have difficulty breathing, let alone practicing. He needs a temporary contract from his mother to live and practice normally. However, his practice can only reach the great perfection of the foundation-building stage at most. Only after being contracted by his wife can he continue to improve his realm.
After a woman reaches the Foundation Establishment stage, her spiritual roots awaken, leading to the formation of a Dan. Upon achieving this, she receives the blessing of the Heavenly Dao and is compelled to contract three husbands. Of course, a woman can also contract additional men at her own will. The contract is one-way, allowing the woman to torture or kill the man with her mind. Any man who resists the contracted woman will suffer divine punishment. Upon the woman's death, the contracted man dies with her, though the man's death does not harm the woman.
However, there are also some men who are considered unworthy of marriage by women and are kept in temporary contracts. Such men are called lowly servants, and the children they give birth to are also illegitimate.
This is a unique world where women are supreme, divided into three continents—Tianxuan, Penglai, and Mingyuan—each connected by a teleportation array. Cultivators do not rely on sects, but rather on the spheres of influence of large and small families.
The original owner was the concubine's daughter of the head of the Lin family, who lived in a city called Lincheng on the Tianxuan Continent.
"Ruanruan, do you want to buy spiritual roots in the mall?"
"No need. I remember we still have a few 'Wish Come True' buffs in our collection. Put one on me. I remember that in the last immortal cultivation world, I seemed to have a single or dual spiritual root. This time, I want the best complete spiritual roots.
The best-grade full spiritual root, also called the best-grade chaotic spiritual root, is the strongest type of spiritual root, but it is also the most difficult to upgrade, requiring several times more spiritual power than a single spiritual root.
But Lin Ruan has several spirit stone veins.
After using his consciousness to connect the mineral vein with his body, Lin Ruan left the space. In an instant, dark clouds rolled in the sky and thunder roared. After a while, huge raindrops came down towards Lin Ruan, but not a single drop fell on the ground. They were all absorbed by this body.
Lin Ruan:!!!!!!
It turned out to be spiritual liquid rain!
Is this Heaven's preference for women?!
Even without absorbing the spiritual stones in the space, a spiritual rain pushed Lin Ruan's cultivation to the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage. After the spiritual rain ended, a rainbow landed on Lin Ruan's head.
She squinted her eyes and felt that her cultivation, which had just reached the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, suddenly became much more stable.
"Ruanruan, you are truly amazing. In this world, women are only pushed to the Golden Core Stage after awakening their spiritual roots. A few geniuses only reach the Great Perfection of the Golden Core Stage. Not only are you one level higher than them, you have even received the blessing of Heaven."
"I think it has to do with the strength of my soul. I just felt it, and my consciousness has recovered to the strength of the last immortal world."
system:!!!!!
"Didn't you reach the pinnacle in the previous world, the Great Perfection of the Tribulation Crossing Stage?"
"Yeah, what I mean is, even though I'm still at the Nascent Soul stage, my spiritual awareness has already reached the Tribulation Crossing stage. There's no need to hide, I can already walk sideways in this world!"
Lin Ruan was talking to the system, and didn't notice that when the blessing of heaven disappeared, the three drops of blood in his body were also taken away and scattered in different directions on the Tianxuan Continent.
"Now, Lincheng is mine." Lin Ruan smiled arrogantly, took out his original natal sword from the space, and headed straight for the City Lord's Mansion.
After a night, it started raining again, a normal heavy downpour.
The rain washed away the bloodstains on the ground, and the servants of the City Lord's Mansion knelt on the ground and trembled.
The city lord and all his children were dead, and the city lord's trusted relatives and servants were also killed. At this moment in Lincheng, there was no more legitimate heir than the illegitimate third daughter.
Lin Ruan selected a branch and some servants who had never said anything bad about the original owner to be her confidants. She had carved the mark of subordination on their souls with her spiritual sense. Needless to say, they were the most loyal lackeys behind the newly appointed city lord.
