The Female Cultivator In The World Of Men

"Whoa…" Le Fang ling opened her mouth in a wide 'O' as she expressed her surprise while she followed An Cheng inside the residence.

Since it was night time, she could not see everything about the place clearly like she would have in day time, yet what she saw was more than enough to make her feel like she had stepped inside a totally new dimension.

"Being an inner court disciple seems nice.." She expressed her opinion while looking around as she thought about the difference in treatment between outer court disciple and inner court disciple.

"There is not much difference, you know.." An Cheng heard her remark and replied nonchalantly.

"Huh, why not?" Le Fang ling asked when she heard what An Cheng said. From what she had learned about cultivation and sects from the system, it said clearly about the difference in treatment between inner and outer court disciples.

"People always have this weird misconception about inner court disciple being treated like prince and princess…tsk tsk.." An Cheng shook her head in disappointment.

"This residence looks beautiful and well kept because I always use my spiritual energy to cleanse and purify the surrounding around it." An Cheng opened the door of her quarter and walked inside.

Le Fang ling who had a curious look in her face pondered on what she said and quietly followed behind her.

"When I got promoted to inner sect disciple, I was given this house only, nothing more and nothing else." An Cheng flicked her finger making it glow in a bluish green color.

The whole dark room got illuminated with greenish fire that came alive the moment An Cheng had snapped her fingers.

"I planted the trees, dug out the fountain and since then I have been taking care of this place with my heart…" An Cheng spoke softly, her voice echoing in the seemingly empty room.

"I took care of this place with my whole heart as this is my only home." An Cheng added but her voice had a little bit of sadness and nostalgia.

"These flames…." Le Fang ling noticed the change in mood of An Cheng and decided to change the topic away from home.

She motioned towards the three candles that were in the middle of the room, but just those were enough to make the room light up and asked, "Did you just do these?"

"Yes, That's qi manipulation.." An Cheng gathered the qi in the center of her palm and the condensed qi changed it's nature to form a flame.

"As you saw, I have wind affinity based spiritual based root but I can still produce flames." An Cheng made the flame grow much brighter and let out a soft chuckle when she saw the look on her face.

"Ha ha..You don't have to be that impressed…You can do anything with qi as long as you learn diligently and cultivate with determination." An Cheng replied as she signaled Le Fang ling to follow her inside.

Le Fang ling nodded her head and followed An Cheng inside the room.

<Ding!!>

<Host, your penalty time is almost near. You better be prepared!>

The system that had been silent all this time spoke out reminding Le Fang ling.

'I know…How much time do I have?' Le Fang ling who had been expecting the notification to arrive anytime soon asked while walking behind An Cheng.

<Approximately 5 minutes until your immobilization and deep slumber!> The system answered about the two most important and troublesome penalty she was going to go through…Again!!

"I should probably refrain myself from using these in future." Le Fang ling sighed but increased her pace and started walking with An Cheng. She was left too vulnerable after using these abilities but she had no choice after all.

They reached a room which was separated by a golden brown curtain. An Cheng swept aside the curtain and both of them entered a place, which seemed to be a bath area???!!!!

The dimly lit green candle made the place emit a different kind of warmth but for some reason Le Fang ling was breaking out in a cold sweat.

'Thiss….' There was a moment of internal panic inside her when she looked around the room.

And why won't she? Considering it was her first time ever to enter somebody else's bathroom and to top it off that *somebody else* was a beautiful and classy maiden.

"Why did you stop?" An Cheng asked when she realized Le Fang ling was stuck at the door and she was not moving an inch from there.

She took off her outer robe and placed it on a hanger at the wall. Seeing that she got no answer from le Fang ling, she turned around and once again asked her to come inside.

Meanwhile, Le Fangling's heart rate and breathing frequency has increased abnormally.

<Host, you okay? You seem to be having some kind of traumatic attack..> The system's notification rang inside her head.

'I am fine, just…a little nervous.' Le Fang ling answered shaking her head to calm herself down.

"Err…Senior sister…I..We..why are we here?" Le Fang ling stuttered from where she stood but she had no courage to take a step inside.

"Here? Ohh.. I need to apply medicine to your wounds, patch you up before I take you to elder Lin." An Cheng shamelessly swallowed down the guilt in her throat and answered.

"Medicine?" Le Fang ling expressed her doubts.

"Yes, now be a good girl and come here.." She patted the sitting tool beside her and motioned to Le Fang ling.

"Forgive my rudeness, senior sister, but why here?" Le Fang ling had rooted herself on the entrance at this point.

"That's because, I keep all of my medicines over here." An Cheng opened a drawer from a cupboard and took out three-four bottles of medicines. She placed them on the table and looked at Le Fang ling.

"And there is also a new dress for you by the way." She took out a neatly folded uniform from her spatial ring and placed it beside the table.

"You need to change in to one..The one you are wearing is rather…err…not pleasant to the eyes." An Cheng measured up Le Fang ling from top to bottom.

"Now hurry up. Elder Lin might go and search for us in the willow groove if we delay any more." An Cheng shuddered at the thought of Elder Lin.

" She is a really nice person to get along with until and unless she was in good mood, but the moment she is angered....

Well, no one lived to tell the tale after that." An Cheng looked at Le Fangling with a dreaded expression.

".....", Was Elder Lin a monster? Le Fangling contemplated.

'That was a bit exaggeration...' An Cheng coughed lightly.

.

.

<If you are that reluctant, I can use your spiritual energy to heal your wounds for you.> the system offered a suggestion but Le Fangling quickly denied it.

"...", That was totally out of question. If every injury in her body disappeared like that then An Cheng was going to get even more suspicious of her.

And the fact that An Cheng hadn't even asked her about the purple aura was gnawing her from inside as this made her think about the calm before a storm.

'No, do not do anything until I ask you.' Le Fang ling made her intention clear to the system.

<Understood!> The system immediately went silent afterwards.

.

"Are you really going to camp there?" An Cheng asked with a frown. She felt as if she was luring a kitten to come inside her room to offer treats.

Nope, she felt it was much harder to lure the girl in! A cat would have already taken the offer.

"Fine, whatever you say..." Le fang ling gave in to the call of An Cheng and entered the washroom.
