Volume 1: The Human World: Phoenix Rising in Fire Chapter 13: Turning the tables (2)
It was quiet all around... There was no trace of the legendary spiritual energy flowing...
"It's not really that useless, is it?"
Hua Xi opened her eyes, wanting to cry but unable to. Was God playing tricks on her?
In the time-travel novels she had read, the heroines would usually find out after traveling through time that their originally useless bodies were actually super geniuses. From then on, they would use all kinds of cheats to kill all their enemies without leaving a single piece of armor!
Why is she still a waste?
"No! Try again!" She never gives up easily!
An hour later...
Hua Xi wrapped himself in the quilt dejectedly, feeling for the first time that life was so difficult.
Could it be that cultivation really requires a natural physique? With her strong comprehension ability, it didn't help at all.
Playing with the small gourd on her wrist, she would never give up. There must be a way. With her intelligence, she would definitely find an unusual way!
I didn't sleep all night and studied the spells in my memory. It was already dawn.
Ling'er pushed the door open and said, "Miss, you woke up really early. Madam just ordered that Miss still doesn't have to go to the academy today because she is not well."
Although martial arts are respected in this era, young masters and young ladies from noble families still go to academies from a young age to learn poetry, literature and etiquette.
Hua Xi thought about it and decided that since he had nothing to do, he might as well go to the college and take a look, so he spoke.
"I'm no longer in any serious condition. Let's go to the academy."
Ling'er bit her lip and said awkwardly, "Miss, don't go today."
"Why?"
"because……"
"Are you afraid that I'll hear those rumors when I go to the academy?"
Ling'er nodded and said, "Although you don't have to worry about those rumors, it's inevitable that the young lady will feel uncomfortable if she hears them."
"No." How could a stranger hurt her with just a few words?
Ling'er couldn't persuade her, so she had to help her comb her hair and dress up carefully.
She took out a snow-white wide-sleeved fairy dress. Hua Xi glanced at it and said with an unpleasant expression: "I won't wear this."
In the past, Mo Huaxi always imitated Mo Qianxue. This dress is exactly the same as Mo Qianxue's.
But Mo Qianxue is eighteen years old this year and has a tall figure. She looks as graceful as a fairy in this dress. However, Mo Huaxi, who is fourteen years old, is relatively small, and wearing such complicated clothes will only make him look old.
Ling'er was puzzled. This dress was the third young lady's favorite because the eldest young lady often wore it...
Hua Xi walked to the closet and flipped through it casually. They were all snow-white long dresses, which looked mature and complicated. She finally found one that she liked. She took out the scissors and cut off all the flowing, decorative and useless ones with a few clicks!
When she put on the modified clothes, there was no dragging on the ground, no complicated ribbons, just a simple long skirt , covered with a white silk robe and tied with a belt. It was simple but not without the demeanor of a lady, playful and cute, and also had a hint of heroic spirit.
She picked up a copper lock from the jewelry box and hung it up. It was the size of a palm, and except for the hollow cloud patterns around it, the center was smooth and round, like a mirror.
"Come here and comb your hair." Waving at the stunned Ling'er, Mo Huaxi thought to himself that he should make some new clothes.
Ling'er came over slowly and said in a low voice, "I'll help Miss count the butterfly buns..."
"A round bun will do." How incongruous is it for a 14-year-old girl to wear a butterfly bun and a head full of red hairpins? Little girls should be cute and lovely like little girls!
