Transmigrating to become Hua Qiangu

Hua Qiangu followed Bai Zihua all the way to where the World Honored One was. After explaining some matters, they all dispersed to attend to their cultivation. There were many disciples on Changliu Mountain, and everyone was busy cultivating magic and studying their lessons. Although the atmosphere was not exactly oppressive, it was still very serious.

That day, Hua Qiangu was cultivating alone in a secluded place, as usual. She was still thinking about the spiritual spring pills in that magical space, and wanted to find a suitable opportunity to show everyone how powerful these treasures were. Just as she was pondering this, she saw a figure busy at work in the distance. Upon closer inspection, she exclaimed, "Hey, it's my eleventh senior brother, Luo Shiyi!"

Luo Shiyi was quite famous in Changliu Mountain. He was an upright person, serious and hardworking in his cultivation, and also skilled in insect control. Many of his junior brothers and sisters respected him. At this moment, he was intently fiddling with some small objects, as if preparing some kind of insect control tool.

Hua Qiangu's eyes lit up, thinking that this was a great opportunity. She walked up to Luo Shiyi with a grin, patted him on the shoulder, and said loudly, "Eleventh Senior Brother, what are you busy with here!"

Luo Shiyi was startled by the sudden slap. Turning around, she saw Hua Qiangu and said with a smile, "Oh, it's Xiaogu. I was just preparing some things to use for insect control. Where have you been playing again?"

Hua Qiangu was immediately displeased. She put her hands on her hips, pouted, and said, "Senior brother, I didn't go out to play! I've been diligently cultivating, and besides, I got a great treasure that I want to show you!"

Luo Shiyi raised an eyebrow curiously and asked, "Oh? What treasure is it that excites you so much? Show it to your senior brother!"

Hua Qiangu chuckled, mysteriously pulled a spirit spring pill from her bosom, and handed it to Luo Shiyi, saying, "Senior brother, look, this is it! This is a spirit spring pill that I went through a lot of trouble to get. It's amazing, and it's very good for cultivation!"

Looking at the ordinary-looking pill in front of him, Luo Shiyi was a little puzzled. He frowned and said, "Xiao Gu, this...this looks like an ordinary pill. Is it really as magical as you say?"

Hua Qiangu got anxious, stomped her foot, and said loudly, "Hey, senior brother, don't underestimate it! Let me tell you, this is really a good thing. I went through a lot of trouble to get it. Just trust me this once!"

Luo Shiyi was still a little hesitant, scratching his head and saying, "Xiao Gu, it's not that your senior brother doesn't believe you, but what if something goes wrong if we just swallow this unclear pill?"

Upon hearing this, Hua Qiangu became even more anxious. Her eyes widened, and she held the pill in both hands, trying to bring it to Luo Shiyi's mouth. She cried out, "Senior brother, just eat it! If you don't eat it, it means you don't trust me! Humph! I've already tried it, it's definitely fine, eat it now!"

Luo Shiyi was both amused and exasperated by Hua Qiangu's attitude. She retreated repeatedly, waving her hands and saying, "Hey, hey, Xiao Gu, don't be like this. This... this is too sudden. Let me think about it some more."

Hua Qiangu didn't care about anything else. She rushed forward, grabbed Luo Shiyi's arm, and forcefully shoved the pill into his hand. Then, staring intently at him, she said, "Senior brother, you have to take this today! Otherwise, I'll get angry. I genuinely want you to be well. This pill really can help your cultivation. Take it now!"

Luo Shiyi looked at the pill in his hand, then at Xiao Gu's resolute face, and sighed helplessly, saying, "Alright, alright, since you insist so much, I'll trust you this once. Take it!"

After saying that, he closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and swallowed the spirit spring pill.

After Luo Shiyi finished taking the pills, a while later, he suddenly felt a warm current slowly rising in his body. That warm current was like the warm sun in spring, slowly flowing through his meridians, and his whole body felt an indescribable comfort.

Luo Shiyi stared wide-eyed at Hua Qiangu in astonishment, and said excitedly, "Little Bone, this...this pill is truly amazing! I feel like there's a power surging within me, it's incredible!"

Hua Qiangu laughed triumphantly, put her hands on her hips, and said proudly, "Haha, I knew it! Senior brother, I would never lie to you! This spirit spring pill is really that powerful. If there are any more in the future, I'll get you some more so you can cultivate even faster!"

Luo Shiyi frowned at this moment and said to Hua Qiangu with a serious expression, "Xiao Gu, this thing is too powerful! Where did you get it? If others find out, it will be terrible. What if it causes trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Hua Qiangu waved her hand dismissively and said, "Oh, Senior Brother, don't worry! I obtained this by chance, and no one else knows about it. Besides, I only gave it to you, so don't worry!"

Luo Shiyi was still worried and said, "Xiao Gu, don't underestimate this matter. In Changliu Mountain, you have to be careful about everything. The effects of this pill are so amazing. If word gets out, there will definitely be people who covet it, and then you will be in danger!"

Hua Qiangu pouted and said, "Hmph, senior brother, you're too timid! I'm not a child anymore, I know how to handle this. Besides, I'm only trying to help you improve your cultivation, and you're lecturing me instead!"

Luo Shiyi was both amused and exasperated by her words, and said, "Xiao Gu, I'm doing this for your own good! Why don't you understand? This is no joke. If this pill brings you any trouble, how can I repay your kindness?"

Hua Qiangu crossed her arms, snorted, and said, "Senior brother, stop being so indecisive. I'm not afraid, so why are you? I'll just have my own way of dealing with it when the time comes!"

Luo Shiyi shook her head helplessly and said, "You're such a willful girl! But since you've already eaten it, there's nothing we can do about it. But you must remember, you can't tell anyone else about this, understand?"

Seeing his serious expression, Hua Qiangu could only nod and say, "Alright, alright, I know, Senior Brother, I'll listen to you. I won't tell anyone else, okay?"

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out: "Hey, what's going on here? It's so lively!"

The two turned around and saw that it was Huo Xi running over. Huo Xi was lively and cheerful, and loved excitement. She often caused some minor troubles on Changliu Mountain, but she meant no harm.

Huo Xi ran up to them, looking at them curiously, and asked, "What are you two up to, sneaking around here? Tell me!"

Hua Qiangu said with a smile, "Senior Brother Huo Xi, I didn't do anything sneaky. I just chatted with Senior Brother Eleven about cultivation. Nothing special!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Xi curled her lip and said, "Hmph, I don't believe it. You two must have some secret. Tell me quickly, don't keep it to yourself!"

Luo Shiyi quickly said, "Huo Xi, it's really nothing, don't ask around, go and do your thing!"

Huo Xi persisted, running up to Luo Shiyi and grabbing his arm, asking, "Senior Brother Shiyi, don't lie to me! I think Xiao Gu is hiding something in her hand. Is it some kind of treasure? Let me see it too!"

Luo Shiyi glared at him and said, "Huo Xi, stop messing around. There's no such treasure here. Stop causing trouble and let's go!"

Seeing that neither of them would say anything, Huo Xi could only mutter, "Hmph, fine, don't tell me then. Being so mysterious is so boring!"

After saying that, he turned and ran away.

Hua Qiangu watched Huo Xi's departing figure and said to Luo Shiyi with a smile, "Senior brother, look at you, you've offended Senior Brother Huo Xi. He must think we've done something bad behind his back!"

Luo Shiyi said helplessly, "There's nothing we can do about it. We can't let him know about this. If he keeps talking about it everywhere, it'll be a real problem!"

Hua Qiangu nodded and said, "Yes, I understand, Senior Brother. I won't tell anyone, so don't worry!"

Just as the two of them were talking, several more disciples walked over from a distance, including Ni Mantian, who had always been dissatisfied with Hua Qiangu.

Seeing Hua Qiangu and Luo Shiyi chatting and laughing together, Ni Mantian felt extremely uncomfortable. She snorted coldly, walked over, and said sarcastically, "Oh, what are you doing here? Hua Qiangu, what trouble are you causing now?"

Hua Qiangu frowned, looked at Ni Mantian, and said, "Ni Mantian, I didn't do anything wrong. I was just chatting with my senior brother. What's it to you?"

Ni Mantian curled her lip in disdain and said, "Hmph, what good stuff could you possibly have? Don't embarrass yourself here. Don't you know your place?"

Luo Shiyi was displeased upon hearing this and stood up, saying, "Ni Mantian, you're wrong! Xiao Gu meant well. It's one thing to be ungrateful, but to say such things is going too far!"

Hearing their words, Ni Mantian became even angrier and glared at them, saying, "Hmph, you're all protecting her! What's so great about her? She's just a newcomer, and she's always causing trouble here. Does she really think she can make a name for herself in Banliushan?"

Hearing this, Hua Qiangu was also very angry, but she still suppressed her anger and said, "Ni Mantian, I came to Changliu Mountain to cultivate. I will definitely make a name for myself through my own efforts. You don't need to say such sarcastic things here!"

Just as the two sides were deadlocked, Wu Qingluo walked over. She was gentle, generous, and handled matters properly, and was highly respected among the disciples of Changliu Mountain.

Seeing this, Wu Qingluo quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, "Oh dear, everyone, stop arguing. We're all from the same sect, why ruin our harmony over such a small matter? Ni Mantian, Xiao Gu is just trying to be kind, so please stop saying such hurtful things. Xiao Gu, don't take it personally. It's better if we all get along peacefully."

Ni Mantian snorted and said, "Hmph, for the sake of Senior Sister Wu Qingluo, I'll let it go this time, but you'd better watch out!"

After saying that, Ni Mantian turned around and stormed off.

Hua Qiangu watched Ni Mantian's departing figure, clenched her fists, and secretly vowed: "Hmph, Ni Mantian, just you wait, I will definitely make you look at me with new eyes, and then we'll see if you still dare to treat me like that!"

Huo Xi patted Hua Qiangu on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Gu, don't mind her. That's just the kind of person she is. Let's not stoop to her level. Come on, let's continue our conversation."

Luo Shiyi nodded and said, "Yes, Xiao Gu, don't take her words to heart. Just focus on your cultivation, and you'll definitely amount to something in the future."

Hua Qiangu looked at them gratefully and said, "Thank you, senior brothers. I will definitely work hard in my cultivation!"

Then, the group continued chatting about the spirit spring pills and cultivation matters, their laughter echoing again in this corner of Changliu Mountain, as if the unpleasantness from before had never happened.

Hua Qiangu knew in her heart that if she wanted to truly gain a foothold in Changliu Mountain and rewrite her original tragic fate, she still had a long way to go. However, she would not give up easily. She believed that with her own efforts and the help of that magical space, she would definitely be able to do it!
