Chapter

After a long time, a message transmitted by the wind was received by Cherry. It was from poppy asking where she was.

They had thought they were heading in the right direction but in fact. They had no clue where they were. After an hour poppy found them and brought them to the base.

Since everyone has arrived, We should go to where the others have gathered to pick up the Children.

Once arrived the millions of disciples were there.

Wow, many stopped and stared at the girls from the Hua sect. From head to toe, they were dressed in pretty garments.

They are so pretty. Poppy mumbled.

Greetings elder sister. Lin Hua said.

Who did this to you?

She picked a speck of dust from her sister's head as she glared at Gerald.

Lin Ji was not in a good mood.

She took her arm and inspected it only to find a wound.

Elder sister, she cried. For the past month, I was bullied by the 7th daughter of Qing. She even beat Gerald up. Gerald was too good-hearted and didn't want to hurt her.

She has gone too far the crowd stated.

Gerald, why didn't you teach the waste her place? Lin Ji screamed. Lin Ji had a big temper. She regarded herself with utmost pride.

The daughters of Qing rumours of your elegance spread far and wide. So far that I was going to invite you to the Hua sect. But these actions say something different. The dean of the Hua sect said. She was an old lady who would still pass as 40. She was wearing a long silver dress with flowers embroidered on it. In her hair were flowers as well.

A light floral scent wafted around telling Cherry of her presence. Cherry held the ends of poppy's sleeve. Cherry disliked attention, especially with an audience of millions. Do not offend without reason, but do not fear this sentence rang in her ears once more. Do not offend, I do not think I offended. They threatened us. I gave them a fake, they captured milk tea as bait, and then I beat them up. I didn't offend.

Didn't offend? Little spirit raised his brows.

The moral of the story is just to end it once and for all.

7th daughter of Qing I challenge you to a duel. The crowds became silent. To decline such a duel was the most disrespectful and dishonourable thing to do.

Lin Ji are you at the end of your wits? Orchid said.

It has been a while Lady orchid, such remarks aren't very ladylike. Lin Ji said.

Oh, it is coming from you?

What do you mean by that? Lin Hua said.

Hua Er quiet, when Elder sister is talking no one shall interfere.

Your younger sister must be disciplined. She must know her place in the world.

Young misses I must interfere with this conflict. Du Xian stepped in.

I would say the young ladies solve this conflict in a duel. The dean of Hua said.

I refuse cherry stepped forward to say.

Oh, come again I did not hear you. Lin Hua said.

I refuse, I will not participate in a duel. She said once more.

There is no reason for you to refuse. The dean of the cloud sect said.

The accusation of me bulling Lin Hua is false, I do not have the ability to.

Cherry lied. It is only this once and others have it as their hobby.

I think you do, lying is not a good thing.

Master says something he is ruining my sister's reputation. Lin Ji looked at the dean of the Hua sect.

Lei LI his disciple of yours is a bit funny. Her sister tells the whole crowd she was bullied by a rumoured waste and still hopes for a reputation.

You know what I am just wasting time here. Let the duel begin. Lin Ji said.

Then the dean of the Hua sect created a barrier between them and the crowd. It was invisible but there. Orchid was mad, but she kept her anger to herself.

It is about time cherry tells her off. Rose said.

But it isn't Cherry's style to fight someone head-on. What happened?

It isn't her style. the two deans looked at each other at then at poppy.

It looks like she is getting revenge for something.

The atmosphere tensed up, something was amiss.

Lin Hua, what did you do?

With all the stares Lin Hua looked at Gerald for help.

Well, I took her hamster.

You did what! Poppy was surprised.

Dean quickly releases the barrier.

Why?

Lin Ji might lose her life.

It was when other sisters understood what was going on.

One of her animal friends' orchids said.

Milk tea !!!!!!!

Inside the barrier

Lin JI launched an attack towards cherry.

Cherry avoided the attack.

How dare you avoid the attack?

Do not fear Cherry said to herself.

Is that all you nobles know how to say "how dare you do this" or "how dare you do that"

She mimicked Lin Ji

Are you trying to play the villain? Well, today is the day you can learn from a natural.

Clouds formed in the sky and snow began to fall and every time it fell to the ground it exploded.

Lin Ji struggled as she tried to evade the snow. Looking at Lin Ji was Milk tea who reported her actions to Cherry. She expected more from the Hua sect's most favoured disciple whose grandfather was a powerhouse in Catalan. Lin Ji's grandfather had stepped into the ranks of a true martial at merely 110. In Dong Xian those on true martial were countable.

Cherry gracefully walked out of the barrier. To create another barrier.

She looked around. You there, she pointed at a random person.

Yes ma'am he was terrified by cherry's actions in the duel. She used only one move to defeat Lin Ji who is on mortal martial 3. What on earth is she?

In about a minute's time, the snow will stop when that happens, deliver this message to the corpse you were merely adopted by the dark whereas I was born, bred and raised by it. To become villainy you must learn more vocabulary. Ask your pathetic sister of yours what she did and what she got. If you want to tell me off find a translator because I do not speak idiot.

If you're asking why you aren't dead. It is because I do not waste my qi on people without morals and worth. Cherry was a person of few words but when she opened her mouth, no one was spared.

Deliver the message as said and not altered. With that, she walked over to her siblings. The crowd who had watched the one-sided duel felt mixed emotions.

Cherry!, the sisters gave her a big hug and scanned her from head to toe.

Here is a replenishing pill. Rose gave it to cherry.

Do you have a pill that restores nails? Poppy asked Qing tu.

No, I do not.

So-called alchemist poppy rolled her eyes.

The crowd surrounding them were lost for words the sister's cherry as if she had lost the battle with injuries whereas a half-dead person was in the barrier. Who had spread the rumour that she was a waste? That person better come and collect their beatings.

Coming out of the barrier was a ghost and the person Cherry had sent, helped the ghost walk.

The expression on Lin Ji's face was a luxury Cherry could not see. Lin Ji looked like she had returned from the gates of hell. Her robes were no more intact. The jewellery in her hair had shattered into pieces. No blood was seen or smelt. Cherry despised the smell of blood. So most techniques she used would inflict great pain but no blood would spill.

Lin Ji looked in search of the master's gaze. Why is she saying nothing?

Lin Ji clenched her fists. How dare a daughter of a useless official, treat me, the second daughter of the Lin clan with no face. Grandfather will hear of this. When that happens will those * won't be able to hold their heads up high? She is not even worth a strand of my hair she consoled herself.

She went with her group of friends to change herself.

Since the duel has ended we shall proceed. One by one the groups were called into a large cave.

As their group waited to be called inside, the deans and many others tried to talk to or befriend Cherry. All those with such thoughts and plans backfired, Cherry wasn't good at small talk neither did she understand the jokes. Cherry's social skills weren't the best. Many of her anxieties revolved around humans and crowds.

How are you?

Nothing special. In the space Jade, little Spirit was massaging his temples. Cherry, he meant like if you are feeling well. Not how you tick.

I mean I am healthy. Cherry said.

There is no hope he thought.

The conversation was one-sided. Cherry's hand still held Poppy's sleeves. Many people were talking at once and were really close to her.

Du Xian saw the move Cherry did and told the crowd to take three steps backwards.

Lily who was far away began to sing while playing her flute which enchanted the crowd in her direction. Lily's voice was ethereal it sounded clear and crisp and was just relieving. Not all of the crowd went but at least half of them were gone.

Prince long couldn't contain his curiosity and began asking questions.

What Rank are you On?

Where did you learn such Techniques?

Are rumours just to protect your brilliance?

He reached for Cherry's hand when poppy stopped it by hitting his hand. While she mouthed do that again, and I will your hand off.

Poppy what happened ?

Oh, there was just a mosquito.

Oh, what a pity.
