Chapter 8

The next day Renata decided to go to the library once again but this time when the members of the family were awake. The dread she was feeling made her bones rattle a little, it was a good thing her supposed father was a good deterrent towards physical bullying, she could tolerate the emotional abuse. She was used to that already.

The housekeeper who had been by her side since her rebirth, helped her prepare for the day before Renata made her way to the library. The housekeeper silently followed behind, Renata was informed that the cultivation of the housekeeper was qi refining 6 layers, she guessed her father made this arrangement to protect her possibly from physical bullying.

When they reached the library, the housekeeper took out a blue token and she scanned it on one of the keypads on the side. Seeing Renata looking at her token, the housekeeper explained to her that once a person reaches the Immortal Realm even at a beginner stage like her, they can receive a blue token, those who are in Heavens Realm will receive a blue grey token and those who are in the Divine Realm will receive a grey token but since someone in Divine Realm has not appeared in the Nasir family for 1000 of years.

She has never seen it but rather heard of it and the only members who had blue grey token was Raanan, the patriarch of the Nasir family along with five of the seven elders. "What about those in Mortal Realm?" It seemed as if a person in the Mortal Realm could hardly enter without the help of others.

The housekeeper scratched her head, careful not to offend the eldest daughter with her words. Renata seeing her reaction, put her at ease by telling her she could speak freely and there was no reason to fear. It wasn't like she could do anything to her personally anyway.

"Most people who are in the Mortal Realm in the family have opened 4 veins or more, except for some household help who have only managed to open 1-2 veins. They would be considered mortal, thus no need to come to the library. Those who have opened 4 veins or more are between 7 - 12 years of age, after that they are likely to enter the first stage of the Immortal Realm by the age of 13 or 15. For example the young miss entered qi refining stage at 13."

The housekeeper went on explaining to Renata, Renata could not help but think no wonder she was bullied. She was no worse than a 7 year old. Looking at the housekeepers face, she looked like she was the same age as her. She wanted to ask but she was not sure if her heart could handle it.
