"I will protect you no matter what." Lihua said and then they both close their eyes as they are being transported to another location.

Barf****

Lihua pats Yue's back.

Yue can't believe it. The feeling of being on a roller coaster while being blind folded is very unpleasant.

"This Practical training starts now."

One of the Senior's said and then got back to the transportation circle and disappeared.

Yue wants to grab him so she can go back to the sect but what if he brings her back instead. It's like riding the roller coaster 3 times.

The others already take out their swords and float away.

Yue is staring at them a bit dumbfounded.

Lihua pats her shoulder.

"Let's go."

"Huh? Ah. Yeah."

Yue came back from being dazed and stared at Lihua. She can't believe how beautiful Lihua is.

And it seems like nobody sees it but her!

Not anyone even spares her a second look.

'Well this is a cultivation world. Beauty is only attached with power.'

"Do you need help?"

Lihua frowns and grabs Yue's hand.

"Let's go Yue."

Yue looks at the handsome man that has long black hair just like Lihua and as manly as those ancient cultivation dude's illustrations with the novel cover.

If this is not Li Jie, the male lead, then she might not ever read a novel book again as she is that stupid.

"We do not need your help." Lihua said while she glared at the man.

"Actually, we do." Yue said as she almost wants to kneel and beg this man for help.

"Yue! Where is your dignity?"

Yue frowns and looks at Lihua.

'Yeah. Where is my dignity. Hasn't I flip when the author makes the female lead succumb and rely on this male god?'

"Can dignity ensure our safety?"

Li Jie raised a brow.

Did this small clown here before?

"I am only asking Lihua. I am not including you."

Lihua glares deepen.

Yue is a bit moved.

"Really?"

Yue remembers that Lihua is a walking disaster. Just her walking and it turns into a problem.

That's a female lead to you. And also, the reason why Yue dies is because Lihua carelessness provokes a demon cultivator that is sleeping peacefully. If she didn't start spouting about righteousness and justice maybe Yue doesn't have to die.

Without this ticking time bomb, she will have more chances to live. Probably.

Li Jie is finally intrigued.

For the first time, he finally looks down and stares at the woman beside Lihua.

There is no reverence or faith or worship in her eyes. She just stares at him as if he is a good person.

Lihua shakes her head.

"No! I will never leave my best friend! Yue, let's go."

"She is a bit stubborn but she is not a bad person." Yue said and pushed Lihua to Li Jie.

Li Jie catches Lihua.

They look at each other then separate looking away.

This is not what happened in the story.

Lihua just ignores Li Jie and walks away pulling Yue who never has any opinion at all.

But this time it is different.

"What are you saying?" Lihua eyes dilate. She trembles and catches a space pouch that contains all their food supply.

Yue smiles at her.

"Remember our promise?"

Lihua trembled and she clenched the pouch.

They made a promise.

To survive and become the best in the world.

They are still weak right now. They may not live even if they psych themselves into believing they can.

They are waiting for death so to say.

They need strong people to help them at least for now but they know no one.

Lihua looks at Li Jie.

Li Jie is someone that makes Lihua feel insecure so she hates him.

But this man offers his help.

Something they really need.

"C-can't...can't you bring us two?" Lihua said as she swallowed her pride.

Li Jie looks at Lihua and then to Yue.

Yue smiles.

'This girl is so cute. Deserves to be a female lead.'

"Lihua, we can't be selfish."

Lihua nods.

Then she looks at Yue.

"Let's meet again."

Yue nods.

"Of course."

Li Jie… is actually just joking.

He just wants to see Lihua's frustrated expression. But he has a lucky find.

It appears that there are true real friends in this world.

That Yue can pester him to stay.

She can use Lihua to beg for her.

But she accepted his condition so easily and left not thinking of any sort of underhanded tricks.

"What did she give you?" He asks.

Lihua bites her lower lip.

"Our entire supply."

"Let's go."

Lihua looks at the place where Yue disappears before she leaves and goes to the other side.

Janna or Yue is now suffering from her ignorance. She thought she gave Lihua the books but it turns out she gives the food and herb supply to Lihua!

She still has some of her tools but nothing to eat.

"That's what you get from trying to cheat a good girl's heart by escaping death. You will die hungry."
