Chapter 26: Fan Yaoli's Training

After she roamed inside the Ring, she still didn’t know how it functioned. But she also knew that this ring was the reason why she transmigrated to this parallel world.

So she decided to go outside and ask Zexel about the Ring.

She left her chamber and saw the whole place like she was in the modern era. A place of rich people there. Fan Yaoli didn’t know how Zexel was able to make this kind of place here.

She knew that ancient people had limited knowledge in construction and anything that might be new to them.

But Fan Yaoli remembered that the person who did this was a person who makes the impossible become possible.

She saw Zexel eating with a man while they were laughing, so Fan Yaoli coughed to take their attention, and she succeeded.

"So she was also a transmigrated person in the so-called Modern Era?" the man asked. Zexel nodded and smiled towards Fan Yaoli.

"Fan Yaoli, meet Ming Wangye, Feng Zhengying, my lover. Ah'ying, meet Fan Yaoli, an assassin in the Modern Era," Zexel introduced the both of them.

Feng Zhengying just nodded as acknowledgment to her. Fan Yaoli tried to scan her original host's memory and she saw that Feng Zhengying really treated her like that.

But her host did not mind because he did not hurt her sister before. She also saw that Fan Yaoli had already been exposed to a lot of modern technology that Zexel introduced before.

As she explored the memories of her host, she couldn't help but be shocked and at the same time frightened, since she saw for herself how Zexel managed to do a lot of modern technology and things with her own hands.

She even saw Zexel make and assemble a gun and use it in practice with Feng Zhengying.

How high was Zexel's IQ? It's not called genius, she was a monster genius.

"Are you okay, Sister? You look pale," Zexel managed to catch that Fan Yaoli's attention was not with her, so she snapped her fingers.

"Uhm, Si-Sister, can you help me?" Fan Yaoli was shy. She didn’t know how to approach her idol.

"Uhm, Ms. Dark Blood? Can you lend me a hand?" Her cheeks were red as a tomato, making Feng Zhengying and Zexel chuckle a bit.

"Ah'ying, I’ll just help her," Feng Zhengying just nodded and said that he still needed to go home since he had something to do.

Zexel just nodded as she let him do whatever Feng Zhengying wanted to do. She knew the power behind his weak facade, and she knew how difficult it was to manage.

--*--

Zexel already knew that she and Fan Yaoli had access to each other’s rings, so both of them managed to go back to the Divine Majestic Pagoda Ring.

It did not affect each other, but if it was combined, it would become a formidable weapon.

"They were right, your Pagoda Ring is exactly like mine," Zexel chuckled a bit as her eyes roamed around.

"You also have a Pagoda Ring?" Fan Yaoli’s eyes twinkled again. But she remembered that her 'sister' was also a transmigrated soul like her, so it was not impossible that both of them had the same ring.

"Yes, but the ring’s name is Divine Mystic Pagoda Ring, and the guardian beasts are the four mythical beasts of China," Fan Yaoli’s eyes widened, as she knew that the four beasts were really formidable—like her phoenix.

"Your beast is much more powerful than my four beasts. They told me themselves that even if they combined their power at their peak, they wouldn’t match it. It is the balance of the Pagoda Ring itself," Zexel said. Both of them went inside the big palace, and Fan Yaoli saw the row of many doors.

"This place is an aid for a cultivator that the ring chooses as a master. The ring will never be forced to be separated from the chosen one once it chooses that person, no matter what that person or a third person does. In short, the ring and you are inseparable," they were just walking as Fan Yaoli roamed around the place.

Before, in the other future of Fan Yaoli, she was forced to learn all by herself what was the function of the whole ring, since Han Yu, the legendary phoenix, didn’t even bother to explain to her what the function of the Pagoda Ring was.

But now, in this life, she had Zexel to guide her on how to use it, since Zexel had already gotten used to it for 2 years.

"Aside from a cultivation aid, it also has another function. Each of the doors you can see has a different function. There are resource rooms for specific work like armaments, alchemy, modern medicine, blacksmithing, array, and many more," both of them strolled around as Zexel tried her best to explain to her the function of each door in a simple way.

After Zexel explained everything, Fan Yaoli managed to remember everything, so they decided to go back, and Zexel cooked for her.

The fact about Fan Yaoli was, she never knew how to cook, so when Zexel cooked for her delicious dishes, she couldn’t help but indulge herself and eat it.

"Sister Zexel, it’s been so long since the last time someone cooked for me," Fan Yaoli said out of nowhere.

Zexel knew it. That’s why the restaurant was the first business she built. The reason why Fan Yaoli, in Zexel’s host future memory, was rich was because of the tavern—or bar in modern era—auction house, which was the landing of her work inside the Pagoda.

Especially the 3rd-grade to 5th-grade armaments, weapons, arrays, pills, medicine, elixirs, and even martial arts manuals that, for her, were all junk.

Aside from the tavern and auction house, she also had the pier trading and hospitals. That’s why Zexel did not build this business, since she wanted Fan Yaoli to do this job.
