Runaway Goddess: Mischievous Third Miss

Chapter 9 - Brewing Another Trouble

Early in the morning in the second day of the week and fourth month of the year, something happened that made the whole imperial city upside down. The Crown Prince of the Xing Yan Empire actually has a relationship to the first young master of the Ren Manor. Not only that, they even engage in a certain activity on the night that the Ren Manor hosted a banquet for the Crown Prince.

Some say that the first young master of the Ren Manor was actually bent. There was even a rumor that the first young master actually visited brothels that has male p.r.o.s.t.i.t.u.t.es. There was even a rumor that he also has a relationship to someone from a noble family.

In just a single day, the reputation of the first young master of the Ren Manor was tarnished.

Hearing this made Ren Zhilan quite pleased. Having served a platter of vengeance towards Ren Liqin is just the first step and as for the Crown Prince, this is just the beginning. Everything she did will be the foundation for her next step. For now, she will be patient and do everything one step at a time.

Her main goal for now is to cultivate the mortal body she is using right now. Using a Nine Cosmic Body Seal to seal her divine power in order not to break her mortal shell is a bit excessive but she doesn't have any choice. This is the price she must pay. If only the damned Light God doesn't always chase her, she would never accept this kind of humiliating thing.

For divine heaven's sake, she is the Chaos Goddess and the ruler of the Abyss Realm!

Because of a certain trouble seeker god, she had no choice but to flee in this primitive realm. She still remembers the expression of the young master of the Silver Cauldron Auction House. She just shows a space ring and his eyes almost pop out from his sockets.

It seems that the North Star Continent is a low tier realm, the lowest of the lowest. What kind of calamity will befall in this low tier realm that the Fate God quickly agreed? Yes, she kind of threatened him with her aura but even so he can still refused. The so-called calamity may not be easy on the surface.

"Mistress, your breakfast is here," Hei Ying said in a respectful manner.

"En," Ren Zhilan said and stop cultivating.

Hei Ying only prepared a simple breakfast as she is not a picky eater. As long as the taste of the food is passable and nutritious, she would eat it. Back then in the Divine Heaven Realm, as a god she doesn't need to eat. All she needs to do is absorb the divine energy in her territory in the Divine Heaven Realm. Since she has a mortal body, she needs to take care of it.

On the table, Hei Ying served her some dumplings, congee and fruits. The tea Hei Ying served is rich in spiritual energy which is helpful to her mortal body. After all, her current body is still too weak as it never practices any martial arts.

The truth is the mortal body that she inhabits is actually pretty good. It's a four elemental attribute which are fire, wood, metal and light. These elements are useful in her growth. She could use the fire, wood and light element to produce elixirs while the fire, metal and light attribute will be helpful for her Artificer ability.

According to the information that Hei Ying gathered, the third miss of the Ren Manor have a mental illness. Even she has a good constitution but her mind is weak. Her relatives didn't bother to bring her to a physician. It may not help as mental illness is not easy to cure but the thought that they want to help her signifies that they care for her.

The first time she woke up in this lowly realm, the third miss seems not really favored. Her courtyard is shabby and more like a pig's pen than a house. There is no servant that serves her and the meals she receives three times a day is worse. The meals of the servants are much better than her.

Even so, Ren Weizhen didn't kick her out which made her puzzled.

After she ate her breakfast, Ren Zhilan washes herself and changed into a simple cyan dress and only a jade hairpin as an accessory. Hei Ying can't only be her only servant. Even though she can make herself look human, she still needs some precations.

"Hei Ying, I know you like to serve me but I still need some mortal servants with me. Our knowledge in this world is limited. Later, you will accompany to buy some slaves," Ren Zhilan said in a matter-of-fact voice.

"This servant understands," Hei Ying said in a monotone voice.

"I'm going to visit Ren Weizhen. After all, I can't be hasty. Just wait for me here," Ren Zhilan said and quickly left.

The courtyard where Ren Zhilan stays is located at the far corner of the whole estate. She quickly went to the Plum Hall, one of the three main halls of the Ren Manor and where all the main clan members gather for clan meetings and meals.

The Plum Hall is very gloomy, especially Ren Weimin. No matter how he tried to stop the embarrassing news of his son and the Crown Prince's intimate encounter, news still have wings. He tried to pry the servants but none of them spread the news. The news is already scandalous but once it became known to the whole imperial capital, the rumor will became a fact.

Only Ren Weimin is present while his wife and daughter didn't come to breakfast. Ren Weisheng has a solemn expression but deep inside is mocking Ren Weimin. Ren Hualing is peacefully eating breakfast with Fa Biyu. Her brother and concubine mother is sitting on a different table.

"Weimin, have you already stopped the news?" Ren Weizhen said in a serious chilly voice.

"Yes father but many people already knew it and they are many so I can't silence them," Ren Weimin said in defeat.

"He is your son and you didn't even know that he is a bent bamboo? Such a marvelous father you are!" Ren Weizhen said in a mocking tone.

Ren Weizhen is really furious this time. He can't believe that Ren Liqin will do something outrageous and scandalous. He even gave him a chance to explain but the latter seems doesn't remember. This made Ren Weizhen much furious to the extreme. The other person is not ordinary; it was the future emperor of the empire!

He is really troubled as he is going to attend court later and he is going to face the emperor. It will be so awkward that he wish that the land beneath him would just swallow him whole in order to avoid court today. As he is still troubled, a petite figure is slowly strolling to him.

It was Ren Zhilan.

"Granddaughter pays respect to grandfather," Ren Zhilan said and kotow.

"Rise Little Lan, join us for breakfast will you," Ren Weizhen said happily.

The only thing that pleases Ren Weizhen right now is her third son's daughter. With her talent in arts, she can still be betrothed to a decent household. Thinking about betrothal, Ren Weizhen froze when he realize that his granddaughter is engage to the crown prince. Since the crown prince is in an awkward position, will be the engagement still valid?

"This granddaughter thanks grandfather," Ren Zhilan gracefully sits next to Ren Hualing.

"Little Lan's clothes are so simple. This grandfather will send you a new one. Also, I will arrange a new courtyard for you," Ren Weizhen said with a guilty conscience.

"You don't have to worry grandfather, I prefer to live in there," Ren Zhilan said in a modest manner.

"Then I'll just renovate it for you," Ren Weizhen said, pleased to the response of Ren Zhilan.

"The truth is grandfather, Little Lan wanted to have your permission to buy slaves as I don't have any servants," Ren Zhilan said with a pitiful expression on her face.

Ren Hualing frowns as she is the main reason why Ren Zhilan doesn't have any servant. She made random excuses and lies in order to hinder Ren Zhilan having a comfortable life. Her grandfather is not aware of this fact and sure enough her hair at the back of her neck stands up.

She senses some trouble.
