"Ahh!" A deafening shout pierced through the sky.
After that, rumors spread throughout the capital city.
It was said that on that day, many people in the capital city saw a strange blackbird in the sky…
An unknown Magical Beast had invaded the capital city, but the best fighter of the city, Marquis Yun, had subdued it, so it gave one last earth-shattering cry before it died…
It was said…
But that's a story for another day.
"Qingyan, all is well now. If the Su family tries to make trouble for you again, Grandpa is going to make sure they become a bunch of losers." Grand Master Yun smiled brightly as he patted Yun Qingyan's head.
What was the Su family anyway? They were such sore losers. They lost the battle and still came to Qingyan to look for trouble. Who allowed them to be so bold?
But his Qingyan had done a good job. Even though she was unable to cultivate, she still managed to beat the daylights out of her opponent. She was definitely his granddaughter.
Her grandfather was going to beat the Su family into a family of losers, this old man was certainly Yun Qingyan's grandfather.
He was bold enough and domineering enough. She really liked him.
A little sly smile spread across Yun Qingyan's face.
Heh heh, she was sure that Su An was throwing a fit right now.
He had come to make trouble for the Yun family but ended up getting flung out. He wouldn't dare to talk about something so embarrassing like this, and would even have to make sure it was kept a secret.
When Yun Qingyan thought about how Su An probably had to swallow the indignation he felt even if he gnashed his teeth to powder as result, her mood improved tremendously.
She was so happy that she had a family who cared for and loved her in this life.
Yun Qingyan quietly clenched her fists. She told the other Yun Qingyan, "Don't worry, I'll help you to protect the Yun family, and take good care of Grandpa!"
At that moment, Yun Qingyan felt a persistent thought within her body fade. Her compatibility with this body had reached its peak.
...
The night was as cold as water as a gust of cool wind blew away the terrible heat of the summer.
After taking a bath and changing, Yun Qingyan wore a thin white chiffon dress as she sat on the bed with her legs crossed.
She closed her eyes slightly as she sat with her head, soles, and palms facing up. She released her inner energy and started trying to absorb the energy from outside into her body.
"I've failed again." After a few moments, Yun Qingyan opened her eyes again and a puzzled look flashed across her black eyes.
Every time she tried to absorb Star Power into her meridian channels, a green-colored ball of gas would end up absorbing it away from her.
The thing that horrified Yun Qingyan the most was that this strange green ball of gas didn't just absorb Star Power. It also absorbed the nutrition and even the life force that this body had.
It was little wonder that even though this body had been well fed and cared for and never had to worry about material things, her skin was yellowish and sallow, her body was thin and small, and looked so pitiful and undernourished.
Even though Yun Qingyan had seen a lot of things in her previous life, she had never seen anything so weird before.
It was merely a ball of gas, but it seemed to have a mind of its own. Every time Yun Qingyan's energy touched it, she would feel what this ball of gas was trying to tell her.
"I'm hungry! Feed me! Feed me!"
Yun Qingyan angrily rolled around on the bed a few times and felt like cursing at the sky.
So what if it was hungry? She didn't care!
Since it was hungry, it was going to eat up all the Star Power she had taken so much time and effort to cultivate, take all her nutrition away from her, and was going to swallow up her life force!
"What was this evil filth? Get out! Get out!"
The little ball of gas seemed to be able to detect Yun Qingyan's thoughts, so it sadly shrank to one side and gave off a feeling of indignation.
"This thing was feeling indignant now?" Yun Qingyan nearly puked blood in anger. She was the one whose Star Power was being consumed and she wasn't feeling indignant, but this little Star Power thief dared to say that it was so upset.
"Great! Just great!" Yun Qingyan gritted her teeth quietly and then chanted a spell in her mind.
An old dark-colored ring appeared on her hand.
Her left hand gently rubbed the surface of the ring and Yun Qingyan looked down at it.
She had transmigrated here and so did her Magic Ring, but she wasn't sure if Xiaoxuan was still inside or not.
She suppressed the slight worry in her heart and opened her mouth to call out a name.
"Xiaoxuan!"
It was completely silent and there was no movement whatsoever in the large room.
The bright room had nothing else but the flickering candlelight and Yun Qingyan sitting in a daze on the bed.
Could it be?
Her lips twitched as she tried to suppress that feeling of embarrassment in her heart. Yun Qingyan took a deep breath and opened her mouth to speak again.
