[2ha x genderfluid reader] The Husky And The White Cat Shizun With Their Baobei

Chapter 1 (revised)

To be awakened in a body that was not your own, with limited access to power within the spiritual core, was truly a bizarre situation. The first day in the body got you already missing the technologies of the modern era; you were unsure how you'd even survive. The location was also crucial; after all, if it was in the middle of nowhere, chances are you'd likely die. Well, the first thing you realized was that you were in the middle of the forest next to a field of herbs. Your clothing was some common white robes, inner and outer.

There were times where you almost ended up dying, but thankfully your current body's agility and speed were quite decent. Allowing you to quickly move away from the approaching wolves that were hoping to have you as their dinner.

What's up with your fate with wolves? You were not sure.

You followed routes that looked strangely familiar to you, and you ended up coming across a village and meeting a kind old woman who appeared to know you. Only then did you realize that your current body name has the same name as you, Y/N. That woman allowed you to tidy yourself up in her home, which you were grateful for. Only by looking in the mirror did you realize that your current body shared similar facial features and the same eye colors. The current body of yours has longer hair than your previous self. It was a female body with boobs. You also found out you're the granddaughter of Ying Qin, the old lady who called you 孙女. You were thankful for learning Chinese during your previous life, or else you were sure that you would act like a fool in the village and be unable to communicate properly with the rest of the villagers.

Being a woman in your current body was not the best thing, especially during the ancient times of China. There were times you saw the villagers forcefully marrying off their daughters to rich merchants in return for a bag of golden tael. There was nothing you could do about it, since you can't even save your current situation. But you do feel bad for the daughters who got sold off.

It did take awhile for you to get accustomed to the lack of modern technologies, since in modern times, when it comes to any problems, it's easier for you to just look them up. You have to lie to Ying Qin and say that you bumped your head during your time collecting herbs, resulting in some memory loss. Thankfully, Ying Qin quickly believed you, even though it does sound too convenient. It was the fourth month when you heard from the villagers about a group of Sisheng Peak cultivators coming to help with the agricultural development of that month. Sisheng Peak rang a memory in your mind; you remembered reading a novel about Mo Ran and Chu Wanning. Sisheng Peak was where Mo Ran and Chu Wanning lived. But you were unsure if the timeline was after or before Mo Ran's identity as the son of Xue Duanrong.

From then on, you had one goal, which was to become a cultivator and get accepted as one of the disciples of Chu Wanning. Only then could you finally be close to your favorite idol. Yes, you would be quite a simp for Chu Wanning; who wouldn't be? The problem is that you would need a real cultivation book instead of those fake ones that scammers would sell. Almost as if fate answered your call, one of the Sisheng Peak cultivators accidentally dropped their cultivation-learning material during their visit without realizing it. You were unsure why they would even bring it when they're supposed to be helping to grow the crops of the village, but it's none of your business.

With the acquired material, you were finally able to learn the route of cultivation. Awakening your spiritual core was a hard task; for more than 3 years, there was hardly any process. You weren't sure if that was supposed to be normal or not. When you were almost ready to give up, suddenly you were able to sense your spiritual essence. Surprisedly, it was more than one, but you were unsure how many spiritual essences there were; it all felt mixed up. But regardless, you were happy to hear that you finally achieved the first step to cultivating. You wasted almost no time packing up and leaving the village to a location closer to Sisheng Peak.

Times that you wished that there was a system that could guide you, like the ones in novels. But you weren't as lucky as the characters, as there were no systems.

After leaving your hometown to earn a living, you resorted to collecting herbs and battling weaker spirits. During your travels, you stumbled upon a special herb that could transform you into the opposite gender. However, upon contact, you experienced a sharp, almost unbearable burning sensation throughout your body. You hurried to a nearby river to cool off, assuming you had encountered some poisonous plants. Although the river provided relief, the next morning you discovered that your body had transformed, forcing you to buy male clothing to accommodate the change.

The next day that you went to the field, that plant was gone.

The effects never wear off.

You were preparing for the new disciple-selecting ceremony; you have to think of a way for Chu Wanning to be willing to choose you as his disciple. Since you remembered that Chu Wanning doesn't blindly choose his disciples, Like Shi Mei, it was because of their kind and gentle nature. And you weren't the son or daughter of a sect leader like Xue Meng. There was almost nothing special about you. Your swordsmanship seems rigid and doesn't feel right after all; you don't have proper training, and some mere books weren't enough. Your cultivation is still on a basic basis, even though you can sense the mixture of different spiritual essences within you.

Perhaps picking a flower and handing it to Chu Wanning could boost your chances.

After all, you remembered reading a part about how hardly any disciples approach Chu Wanning due to statements about his coldness and harsh personality. Perhaps that was the reason why Chu Wanning hardly has any disciples, compared to the rest of the other sets of Shizun, who have hundreds of disciples.

You did it, and it succeeded. Strangely, since it shouldn't have been that easy, but who were you to not accept the kindness that the universe gives you? All it matters is that Chu Wanning has taken you as one of his disciples.

You met Xue Meng and Shi Mei; however, Mo Ran was nowhere to be found. You guess that the timeline was before the main plot line started. You naively thought that everything was going to be alright, since it's probably the second timeline and not the previous one. You were horribly wrong. Shi Mei ended up pretending to die, and it completely fooled Mo Ran. Mo Ran wouldn't try to even listen to your explanation on how Shi Mei wasn't actually dead, resulting in a huge argument that tore both of your close relationships apart. Chu Wanning also blamed himself for the 'death' of Shi Mei. You tried to explain that Shi Mei wasn't dead, but Chu Wanning only assumed that you were trying to comfort him with lies. Nothing changed from the original plotline, even with your existence.

Mo Ran becomes Taxian-Jun, the emperor of the cultivation realm, marrying the most beautiful woman. Taking Chu Wanning as his concubine.

You attempted to run away with Chu Wanning but were caught by minions of Taxian-Jun and later Taxian-Jun. You still remember the terrifying glare that Taxian-jun gave you; it sends shivers down your spine. Taxian-jun dragged Chu Wanning back after coldly warning you that he wouldn't hesitate to kill you as well if you interrupted his plan. Even despite that, you were still determined to help Chu Wanning escape the grasp of Taxian- Jun.. During your stay at Sisheng Peak, you finally found a method of changing back to your original form, which was female, but you decided to stay as a male. Your plan was to sneak in as a female maid into the palace and sneak Chu Wanning out. Chu Wanning was surprised to see you in your original form; however, you knew that you didn't have much time to explain. But during both of your escapes, you died. You were unsure how you died. Did Taxian-Jun kill you? You only remembered bleeding out and dying, with Chu Wanning attempting to stop the bleeding but failing miserably due to the limitation of his cultivation.
