Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

The matriarch held the side of the bed and sat upright, struggling to find balance.

"Grandmother!" Cai Lien cried out.

"Don't worry. I am just fine. So you want to know about your own background? The fact that Liu Qian hasn't told you yet surprises me. If you are so curious, you must have already asked a few others, and all of them have probably given the same answer. It is not my secret to tell. Let me just give you one hint though. The reason that I cannot tell you is that the information is tabboo. By none other than the royal family itself. It is not an existence that you can afford to mess with yet. You should just calm down and go your own way." she said.

"It is declared taboo by the royal family? This goes all the way to the top?" I was shocked.

​ "I gave you more than you were supposed to know. This is already too much. You should leave now. I will have Lien'er deliver this letter of alliance to your family, and I will be sure to explain how much you helped me. But if you will, I need the Cloud Suppression pill." she glanced at my hand.

I already took out the jade box and threw it at her.

"Such impudence! How dare you throw something at the matriarch?!" one of the guards at the side of the room pounced at me.

"Calm down! Just sit down, the lot of you. It is because of stupid rules like these that the families of yore eventually collapse. Now, let us see if this Cloud Suppression pill really works." she looked at me.

"The pill will work if you were bitten by the Hidden Cloud Snake. But if I am not wrong, that snake is only found in the-"

"I think that your analysis is enough. I think that this is enough. I appreciate your help, and certainly think that this is a fair trade." she glanced at Cai Lien, and then at me.

"You want me to go? Sure. I just don't want to get attacked by Cai Yian later. He does resent me a lot. I hope that the pill works." I said.

"Do not worry about him. No one will dare go against my words in this household. You shall not have any problems from the Cai family from now on." the matriarch said.

I nodded and headed over to leave the room.

"You are very curious about your origin, which I find confusing." I heard Liu Man say suddenly.

"What the hell is wrong with you? Can you not have like a way to warn me when you are going to startle me like this? If this happens during a life threatening situation, then I will go down so fast." I halted.

"That is beyond me. But one thing I don't understand is why you are so hung up on your origin?" Liu Man asked.

"What are you talking about? Are you not curious about who your parents are? Who you are as a person? Why do you ask me such weird questions?" I asked.

"Why would I want to know who my parents are? They are no longer a part of my life. My life is now defined by what happens around me, and the new experiences that I make. They will not be influenced by who my father or mother is." Liu Man said.

All of a sudden, my mind became that much clearer. I was thinking for Liu Feng till now, but I was also Gray. The person that I was before I reincarnated. I did not need to stay here in this place for Liu Feng. I needed to live. I could go and live my life to the fullest, and redefine who Liu Feng was.

"But arent you a little young to be giving advice like this. You are just a new born. How are you able to think like this?" I asked.

"I think what you humans say is that the innocent are the best at the truth. Or something like that. Sometimes, the truth is already known, but your perception of the world changes and distorts it." Liu Man said.

"This level of conversation is way to high. Right now, I just want to get a rest from all that happened. After this is over, I need to go to the sky heaven's sect. Now that I think about it, I think that it came up during the time that I was here." I suddenly realized.

"Yes. It did come up. How did you forget about it so easily? The girl called Cai Lien will be going to the Sky Heaven's sect, and under the matriarch's word, she should become stronger so that she can get away from the Cai family." Liu Man said.

"Wait, what? I am sure that this is not what happened there. I would have heard all of this happen." I said.

"That is because you are not reading the subtext. Considering what had happened previously and what was happening at that time, it was clear that this was what the matriarch meant." Liu Man said.

"So I am probably going to be meeting up with Cai Lien more than I expected. Now that is an unexpected coincidence. But for the Cai family to send their best talent to the Sky Heaven's sect, it must be a very good place to cultivate. Must be like a really good college or something. I just hope that I can get a lot of good opportunities there. Now then. You have to tell me how you are going to help me out, Liu Man. You are free loading within me. You better bring me some good value." I said.

"The way you said it makes me sound like I am just an opportunity for you. But that must be the very reason that you bought me at the auction. You do not need to worry though. Although I might not be able to show off my usefulness right now, I certainly can help you in the future. Once I completely incubate and get enough Qi to gestate, I will be able to grow into my proper body." Liu Man said.
