Quick Transmigration: Picked Up By Stud Horse System - 26 Pillar of the Country 5

When her senses became clearer, Xi Sheng was surprised.

I just closed my eyes for a bit, how come it became like this?!

Xi Lan attained bruises and injuries, and his clothes are almost damaged. He sat pitifully on the ground while raising the cub.

The innocent cub pitifully whined:”Awoooo…awooo…”

Her hand formed a dagger-like stance directed at the cub’s face.

Hiss!

A tingling pain was felt into her neck. There  are about three Sol Keepers pointing their  spears towards her, two of them already made a graze. They formed a posture of protecting Xi Lan.

Xi Lan: “Retreat!”

The three Sol Keepers look with each other.

“But Young Master! This feral tried to hurt  you!”

Fe…ral?

Xi Sheng retreated her hands and supported her head. Uncontrollable rage was forming again. Painful wails surrounded her hearing. Another bloodshed replayed in her mind, but it quickly disappeared.

Xi Lan was aided by the Sol Keepers, he reprimanded them for their insolence. The three Sol Keepers accepted their fault and were about to ask for forgiveness when they felt Xi Lan shuddered and muttered in horror:”Junior Sister…Sheng? Junior Sister  Sheng, don’t run!”

Before Xi Sheng dashed, he saw it again. That kind of countenance before she went on a rampage.

Xi Lan felt a chill on his spine. Every possible reason that caused her to show such facial expression made him terrified.

Junior Sister Sheng, what kind of suffering did you experienced to show that kind of expression?

“What’s happening here?!”

…

Puff! Puff!

Xi Sheng stopped in the middle of the forest.

She wipes her sweats and gasps for air.

It’s not enough!

Her eyes swept to the whole trees and find a sturdy looking tree and punch it multiple times.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Why?

Bam! Bam!

Why does her heart feel so much pain?

It’s akin to millions of ants crawling to her heart.

When she was called feral, something was triggered inside of her. Memories  flashed but quickly disappeared even before she got a hold of it.

And that memory is too unbearable. She doesn’t know what it contains but just remembering its existence already put her being into torture.

She clenched her chest, her neck and hand are obviously bleeding, so why does her heart felt that it was being stabbed multiple times?

Xi Sheng slowly sat under the tree.  She closed her eyes and enforced the breathing technique.

Inhale… Exhale…

Step by step, her turbulent heart became normal.

Any raging thoughts are dissipating.

Xi Sheng opens her eyes. Her amber-coloured eyes are switched back into its lustrous and full of vitality state.

She dusted her clothes and did a stretching.

Xi Sheng took a step forward when she recalled what she did.

Should she just go back and say:’Hey what’s up? I’m sorry for what I did earlier. I didn’t try to kill you. I just strike your critical points! But hey, you didn’t die anyway. So, bye!’

Of course, she can’t!

Xi Sheng caressed her temple. She must go back, but she’s too guilty to go.

“Sigh. I need to train myself, so these things wouldn’t happen again.”

Because of her uncontrollable state, she inflicted internal and external injuries to him.  In the present, she could barely assist in healing his external injuries.

Xi Sheng shakes her head: “This is better than doing nothing.”

Instead of going back, Xi Sheng explored the forest. Her eyes focused on finding a certain medicinal herb for the recovery of deep wounds.

The said plant usually grows beside a lake. So her first priority is to find a lake existing in this humongous forest.

A sweat trickled in Xi Sheng’s face.

Will a day be sufficient in finding the lake? If you’re new to the forest, of course, a day isn’t enough.

But who was the Xi Sheng of this world?  She became one with the forest since she was a child, finding a lake is easy peasy as one two and three!

Xi Sheng strolled forward and the sunlight caused her to be blind for a moment.

Upon regaining her sense of sight, Xi Sheng was astounded because of the scenery.

It was like a whole new world!

The clean pure air assaulted her nose. It was so refreshing!

When she looks in the middle of the place, a pristine and dazzling lake came into her sight.  It was surrounded by flowers and there are even some patches of light lingering in it.

Xi Sheng kneels down and looks at the lake, it reflected her face.

It was so clean and clear that she could see the bottom of the lake. There are even some kinds of fish swimming in it.

The reflected face softens, and the lips arched slightly upwards.

“Fuck!”

The reflected face creased its eyebrows while its ears are turning red.

Who’s that devastating hottie?!

Xi Sheng looks at her reflection.

Oh, it’s just me. Sometimes, my beauty even startles myself. I’m such a sinful wo…man?

The hell? She examined her facial features with anxiousness.

It’s still the same face, so when did it become androgynous?

Xi Sheng tried to smile, but the result astonished her.

Is this even a smile?

Then she remembered her quirk, mild facial paralysis.

Anyway, this kind of smile is already devastating. What will happen if she ‘truly’ smiles? It could cause a downfall of a country.

Xi Sheng shakes her head.

I should stop bullshitting. I don’t want to become Narcissus[1].

Xi Sheng stopped trolling with herself and became partly serious.

She scanned the area and found the plant she’s searching for… Bleu-mist lady slipper!

True to its name, the plant is coloured blue and resembles a mist. Maybe because of its water composition, the plant, if handled wrongly, would slip in the hands and like a lady, would disappear. It would appear again at night.

The plant is only small in size, but it surrounded the whole lake.

Newbies would pluck the plant straight away, but that’s wrong. Although Bleu-mist lady slipper has a huge population, its price is very expensive. Because only a few of it could be plucked perfectly.

“Ignorant fools,” Xi Sheng muttered to herself.

In order to capture these plants, the great me will show you magnanimously.

First, Xi Sheng took a sharp rock and torn the part of her robe. Together with her hands, she washed  the cloth  thoroughly. She didn’t squeeze the cloth and let it soak to accommodate the lake water.

Next, she carefully removes the main plant from its stem, so it would still continue to grow even if the head is gone. Then placed it in the wet cloth. She collected for at least twenty of them.

The sky already lost its passionate glare. She spent so much time in the forest; the people in the temple might he worried…or maybe not. Xi Sheng felt a sudden uneasiness.

She should go back, but she felt nervous about what to say when she faced them. Will he still accept her?

She shrugs it off. If she’s suddenly kicked out, the forest is available anyway. She lived as a ‘feral’ anyway.

It’s probably four to five in the afternoon when she decided to go back.

“Ah!”

Xi Sheng’s ears tingle. She looks at the eastern direction of the forest.

Was it her imagination?

Xi Sheng’s ears caught another faint sound of shouting.

“Hel…me”

Her instinct told her that there’s really someone, maybe about a kilometre, crying for help.

Maybe living in the forest and acting out with the animals has some benefits, though she wasn’t sure whether that benefit is good or bad.

Should she respond or not? It’s not like it would do her some good.

Hiss!

Xi Sheng’s eyes turned unfocused for a bit.

That memory again.

She glared at the direction of the eastern part. Although she felt that something bad would happen if she helps them, but…

Xi Sheng clicked her tongue in annoyance. While her expression is still uncaring, her eyes state otherwise.

In a mild and irritating tone, she voiced out: “How annoying.”

Xi Sheng put the cloth containing bleu-mist lady slipper plants into a part of the lake where it won’t float far away.

She quickly stretches her body and jumps from trunk to trunk of the trees.

Her silhouette vanished in the wilderness.

He saw his reflection, became entranced by it, and killed himself because he could not have his object of desire. Narcissus did not realize it was merely his own reflection and fell deeply in love with it as if it were somebody else.
