Rebirth Of The Queen Chapter 168

"Get out from my sight!" Gu Yi replied in such a cold voice.
Li Wei was frozen on the spot hearing the cold voice of the man in front of her.
Her face was flushed with embarrassment, especially the whispers from the women who were standing in the same queue as Wan Lie.
That woman is Li Wei, Dhong Li Wei. cousins of the Dhong brothers.
Finally, with a slow-motion, Li Wei backed away with a feeling of shame filling her. This is the first time she is interested in someone, so far there have been so many men who are waiting in line to be lovers and even husbands but are rejected by the woman. Nothing interested her until the silver masked man appeared.
The sense of belonging swelled in her, he should feel honored, but what did she get? Get out? Huh, this is a joke for her who is a Dhong blood woman.
Shame and annoyance made her face reddened, even so, it did not reduce the beauty of a prime minister's daughter.
The red jade that appeared to be attached to her waist indicated that she was a participant in the same solo battle as Fu Xie Lan.
Indeed since earlier, while still walking towards the palace, the woman's attention had been distracted by the man in the silver mask. Although part of the man's face is covered by a mask. But eyes and part of her other face that is not covered by anything allow anyone to guess what the face looks like.

"Next," came a shout from the officer at the outpost.
A tall woman immediately stepped forward, she was right in front of Fu Xie Lan.
When the officer saw the woman, he immediately greeted her with a big smile.

"Welcome Miss Yue Ahn," said the officer.
Who doesn't know that woman? Her victories often dominate in various martial competitions, in any kingdom. Whether she is in the category of solo battle or group battle. In addition, her beauty that amazes many men makes her admired wherever she goes. Perfect. Wasn't she the winner of the competition in the previous Kingdom?"
"Right, she's a former disciple of Great Master Xin isn't she?"
"Hmm, hopefully, I get spared from a strong person like her."
"I envy her, besides being beautiful she is also very strong."
"Truly the woman men dream of."
The whispers heard from other participants reached Yue Ahn's ears, not only participants from the Zu kingdom, but participants from other kingdoms recognized and praised her, and it made her feel proud and so confident.
"Please, this is your room number, Miss Ahn," said the male officer gently with a smile that never left his lips.
"All right, thank you," the woman replied in a very low and soft voice.
Even the sound of her voice could melt the hearts of many men. Make them want to become the woman's husband or lover.
"Next," said the officer again after Miss Ahn left.
Now it was Fu Xia Lan's turn, the girl stepped closer to the post, standing right where Yue Ahn was before.
"Name?"
"Xie Lan," the girl replied.
The voices of praise that sounded for Yue Ahn were still occasionally heard when her figure had even walked away from the queue.
The man on duty's brow furrowed at the name 'Xie Lan'. It sounded so familiar to his ears. usually, the name is only intended for women, but somehow such a name belongs to the man in front of him. Moreover, it is similar to the name of the dead Zu kingdom's eldest daughter.

"Origin?"
"Hunter Village."
"Huh? From where?"
"Hunter Village," repeated Fu Xie Lan.
"Are you sure you're in this competition?" the man asked disdainfully.
Fu Xie Lan nodded firmly at the man's question.
"Hahaha, Hunter Village?"
"Isn't that a place for outcasts?"
"What is he doing here?"
"Maybe he thought there were a lot of beasts in this place, hahaha."
"Master, this place is not intended for hunting."
"Isn't this the first time in the history of the martial competition that there has been a participant from Hunter's Village?"
"Is he joking?"
"Master, didn't you have the wrong address?"
"Master should have brought an ax. Hahaha. Who knows it can help you survive the solo battle, hahaha."
Those were the words of those who were there. With an exaggerated voice, it sounded disdainful to Xie Lan who was from the Hunter's Village.
However, Fu Xie Lan was still with the same expression. Hearing the ravings, the look on her face and eyes did not ripple in the slightest. Very quiet.
If it was someone else, maybe that person would already be covered in a cold sweat or worse, might just run away from that place right then and there.
"Come on, don't make a fuss," said the officer stopping the commotion, even though what the officer felt was the same with them.
"Here's your number and your room key," the clerk said to Xie Lan without even looking at the girl.
Fu Xie Lan accepted the thing without making a sound and just walked away.
"Tch," the officer squeaked.
.
.
.
"Next," said the two officers at the same time.
Gu Yi and Wan Lie advanced together but in different queues.
Gu Yi with his name, and so did Wan Lie.
But when they mentioned their origin, the two officers were again amazed. Not just one but several from that village?
The same thing happened to the other participants, some of them even laughed out loud hearing those from the village.
Even though the competition was held in the Zu kingdom, but wasn't this too much? What were the people from the Hunter Village thinking? Sending their people just to be humiliated?
While it was Li Wei who heard that the silver masked man was from the Hunter Village, a faint smile appeared on her face. A glint appeared in her eyes.
Meanwhile, those from other kingdoms were silent, not understanding at all what the people were talking about. The only thing they understood was that the people from the Hunter Village were just weak. Soon Fu Xie Lan and the people from the same village became easy targets for those who took part in this competition.
With the thought that having an opponent from the Hunter Village gave them a high chance of winning.
The same thing happened to Ju Xian and Xue Ning. The difference is that the two people look restless, it seems they can't stand the ravings of these despicable humans. If only they were allowed to use their magic, perhaps the bodies of these despicable creatures would have separated from their heads.
After receiving the room number and key, they rejoined. Fu Xie Lan, Gu Yi, Wan Lie, Xue Ning, and Ju Xian. while Qiao and Lim, the two men only escorted them to the palace gates.

The Shadow Paradigm - Book 1: Project Orb Weaver
Gardening, cooking, innovation, preservation, charity events... Madzistrale, Tom and Gabzryel does it all. But when they encounter the mysterious Shiakar Paradigm Society, a clash of paradigms ensues. Although both groups are aiming to make humanity stand stronger, their ideals and methods could not be further apart. Between the trio's optimistic yet naive ideals, and the SPS's tried-and-true surgical methods, determining the answer which methods can better humanity is a struggle that both parties must resolve in their own ways... Welcome to the 7th revision of my 10+ years ongoing novel trilogy. This revision took out some flawed plot concepts to re-introduce a more down-to-earth, film noir-like ambience, where a battle of wits is what will determine the outcome. It also added instead more in-depth expansion into the lives and mindsets of the characters, especially the heroes (a missing factor in older versions). Third-view limited storytelling was also introduced more prominently over my favoured third-view omnipotent, with each chapters concentrating as much as possible on a single character's point of view instead of head-hopping. So I shall begin uploading the chapters as I finish them; they're edited as much as I can, but there'll most likely be some typos and mistakes. As always, I welcome your comments and critiques, and I hope you enjoy reading that story as much as I did creating it! A parting poem to introduce the story (translated from its original French version): Credit: Les Mots, Mylene Farmer & Seal Firmly, the sky writhes When a mouth begets a death There, I will give my life to hear you To tell you the most tender words When all becomes all alone I'll break my life for a song And to lives that stoop to notice mine I know I will say goodbye But a fraction of this life I would give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives You could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple If one swept the world away One could touch the universe I will tell you how the sun rose high We could with a word become one And for all those words that hurts us There are those that touches us Which illuminates, touches the infinity Even if nothingness exists For a fraction on this life We will give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives We could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple
