Guiying Shufen glared at his younger brothers "eighth princess Qaihong Gho these two baboons are my younger brothers" he stated with distaste, the pair of twins grinned "Guiying Xeiren greets eighth princess Qaihong Gho" he introduce himself and place his hands together.
Guiying Xiang smirked "Guiying Xiang greets plum blossom fairy" he copy his younger brother, he place his left fist into his palm and bowed his head. Guiying Shufen lightly punches Guiying Xiang's head.
I grab the hem of my skirt to hide my shaking hands "Would prince Guiying Xeiren and prince Guiying Xiang like to join us we are on our way back to the palace" she invited them with a small smile.
Guiying Shufen furrows his brows feeling unpleasant, noticing this from the corner of my eye I started having second thoughts about inviting my future murders with us into the carriage. Am I scared out of my wits yes I am and, to be honest, I would have rather bolted back to my guest room and kept myself locked up in there to try and learn more about powers.
The twins looked up towards the setting sun "Sure we will take you up on that offer" the twins replied in unison. Guiying Shufen grumbled on his way back to our carriage while twins kept on pestering me.
"What's your favorite hobby Plum blossom fairy~," Guiying Xiang asked in a playful tone. I rack my brain trying to remember what hobbies I had besides doing paperwork "I love to make these little clay figures" I replied with a light smile.
My mind went back to when I was younger I used to mold clay into animals and even people, if I had to compare my art skills I would dare say it could rival the french paintings. Wait don't witches also make dolls and cast some sort of incarnation.
After riding in an overly crowded carriage I bid goodbye to the three brothers and headed inside my guest room where Cheng Chin sat on the floor cultivating while her hands moved in a fluid motion.
I have read one shouldn't disturb a cultivator when cultivating or it might cause a major blow to their soul. I guess it wouldn't hurt to ask for one of the maids assigned to me here to go and fetch some molding clay for me.
After sending a maid out on an errand I headed back into my room and pulled a thick book out from the bedroom bookshelf. My medical knowledge is limited about this world, so I have taken this book out of the palace library so I can do some research and hopefully brew a potion.
Peppermint: Has a cool refreshing scent that relaxes one muscle and helps with aching muscle pain if apply as an oil. Peppermint tea can reduce pains from headaches and many more health benefits.
Fox Tailed wonders flower: This herb has many properties that if used right can be a blessing or a curse to whoever consumes this herb. Fox Tailed wonders flowers have to be turned into a paste for consumption. Along with a few other herbs that can be poisonous, then turned into a paste after an hour of being boiled.
Heavens Angel: It is a tree that has golden leaves and white fruits, the heavens will always shine down on this beautiful tree, unfortunately, it's hard to find. Heavens angel leaf's has healing properties that can heal almost any disease.
The fruit of this tree can be consumed, the fruit properties can even make the ugliest individual in the world beautiful.
I closed the book as soon I heard a knock at my door, I got up and open the door with relaxed ease. The maid from earlier gave me a box of what I sent her for and left in a hurry, I closed the door with a click.
Looking out the window I sighed as the moon has yet to rise to the point where I could cultivate moon essence. I looked back over to where Cheng Chen is cultivating a powerful swirl of qi appeared 'This must be the legendary breaking into the next realm'
I'm jealous, but hey what can I do? I can only collect moon essence till something happens. Now let's get started on this figurine of Cheng Chen, I am sure she would cherish an item like this from me.
In four hours I put away the unfinished figurine and looked outside the window, looks like it's time to cultivate the moon essence, I pushed open the balcony doors and sat in the middle of the formations that glow under the moonlight.
This position is called louts, you sit criss-cross and hold your hands together if I understand correctly. I kept my eyes open to witness the white particles from the moon rushing towards me. In awe, I gasped out in surprise at the beauty of the moon's essence.
I closed my eyes and focus on collecting the moon's essence, a cold feeling burst through my heart "Kag!" my eyes shoot open in shock. Bloodstained the formation and caused it to go haywire.
It spun faster than my eyes could keep up and the moon essence was practically trying to drown me while forcing the essence into my body at full strengths. The cold feeling reached to every part of my body "So cold"
At some point I had passed out with a shrill scream, it was too much to handle. My body feels so cold but at the same time, the stinging pain of warmth ran its course through my veins. There's another thing that has been bothering me for a while…
Why did I suddenly receive some sort of backlash? I had only started cultivation and was being patient while gathering the essence. Wait I think I know why. Sending my subconscious into a deeper part of my body I had arrived at my heart.
Like I had thought the moon essence had really broken through that barrier, clear streams of white energy enter the heart from one end and left through the other side. I should stop admiring this and go and check on my moon essence core?
Yeah, I think I am going to call it my moon essence core "Qaihong-" wait who is calling for me? "Gho-" there's that voice again, who is it? "Your highness- you" why is their voice so distorted? I feel light-headed I think I am waking up.
I slowly open my heavy eyelids and see a blurry face, I reached my hand out to touch the person's face, maybe I can tell who it is "Your highness-" there's that voice again, why is it still distorted?
Is it coming from this person? Squinting my eyes I looked at the person even more intently "Doctor Bia-" another voice, this one is different. I tried to get up but to no avail, I force back down "Son of a!" I cursed from the shooting pain.
Clenching my teeth I closed my eyes and tried to figure out why I am blinder than a bat. The breakthrough my heart mandarin is still affecting me and from what I can hear its day time maybe even early morning.
Wait what's against my lips?! Previously as a full-grown woman in my past life, I couldn't help but think the worst, I glared towards whoever is putting the object to my mouth trying to force me to swallow something.
"Woooo" someone is sobbing, it sounds a lot like my maid Cheng Chin "Cheng Chin-" after I open my mouth a small ball is placed into my mouth and melted. I feel so sleepy, I won't be able to fight this. If I wake up I'll give whoever put me back to sleep a piece of my mind!
