Chapter 85: Xiao Yin was feeling aggrieved again...
Xiao Yin finally managed to finish eating the tasteless mass that she had been served as food.
"Little Fei, your father and I are heading out." Mrs. Jiang said as a maid came along and cleared up the table.
"Wait!" Xiao Yin called out.
"Hm?" Mr. Jiang raised a brow. "Feibai, what is the matter?"
"Look," Xiao Yin sighed and shook her head. "Can either of you explain what is going on? I am the Tenth Circle Greater Immortal, Silver Star Sage. Why am I here? How did I get reincarnated into a family of ordinary mortals?"
She had thought it over and she decided that the best course of action was to immediately begin her cultivation. To do that, she needed to understand her situation!
"....." Mr. Jiang.
"....." Mrs. Jiang.
The two of them were completely speechless.
"Little Fei? Are you sure you’re okay this morning??" Mrs. Jiang gave her ’daughter’ a puzzled look. Then, ehe turned her head to the side and called out loudly. "Cai! Come here, Cai!"
Auntie Cai immediately ran into the dining room and bowed slightly. "Madam Jiang called me?"
"Humph, did you give Little Fei the wrong medicine today?!" Mrs. Jiang inquired.
"Absolutely not, madam! I have been the one giving Young Miss Jiang her medicine for the past seventeen years, surely I cannot make a mistake." Auntie Cai shook her head in denial.
"....." Xiao Yin was speechless.
She banged her palm on the table and raised her voice. "I’m serious!"
"Feibai, don’t hit the table!" Mr. Jiang said with a stern frown.
Xiao Yin had the corner of her lips twitch.
Was she just told off by a mortal?!
She furrowed her brows and shook her head. "Watch your words, little fellow!"
Instantly, a deathly silence descended upon the table.
"........?" Mr. Jiang was speechless.
".....??" Mrs. Jiang was struck dumb.
"!!!!!" Auntie Cai was taken aback.
None of them had ever seen Jiang Feibai act like this before!
Their Jiang Feibai was a shy, quiet girl with a very low self esteem. She detested crowds and hated publicity. Thus, she did not have any friends.
As she had a very special condition, she had been homeschooled. And as she had been homeschooled, her socializing skills were at zero.
"Watch your tone, young lady!" Mr. Jiang frowned deeply.
"Feibai, what has gotten into you?!" Mrs. Jiang raised her voice.
Xiao Yin shook her head and sighed. There was no use talking to these mortals. Before her rebirth, she could squash people like these with a single breath.
Why would she bother with them?
"Tch..." Xiao Yin twitched the corners of her lips.
She just remembered that she was currently crippled and could not leave!
She turned her head and looked at Auntie Cai. "Little miss, take me away from this place."
"I dare not, Young Miss Jiang!" Auntie Cai shrank back.
"Oh, I get it!" Mr. Jiang’s severe expression instantly lightened. He nodded his head as though understanding something. "You are doing all this so that we would ground you and forbid you from coming down to the cocktail party, right?"
He said with a smile. "Nice try, Feibai!"
What is this fellow talking about??
Xiao Yin blinked her silvery grey eyes and gave him a confused look.
"Oh! Your acting is truly impeccable, Little Fei!" Mrs. Jiang gave her a thumbs up. "I almost believed that you were a rebellious teen!"
"....." Xiao Yin was at a loss for words.
Do you two think I don’t dare beat you both to death?!
She was a Tenth Circle Greater Immortal Cultivator Master, Silver Star Sage! How dare these mortals mock her like this?!
Her face darkened and she decided to obliterate these puny mortals, only to stop in her tracks.
She did not have even the least bit of strength in this crippled body!
At this moment, she felt very aggrieved!

Xiao Shen and Tian Hua went over to a roadside stall and had a simple breakfast of youtiao and soy milk...
Then a steamed bun.
Then a stuffed steamed bun.
Before they knew it, fried gluten, roasted chestnuts, baked potatoes, fried squid, meat sausages, stinky tofu, sweet and sour pork chops, stuffed dumplings, and all kinds of delicacies had entered their stomachs.
Not to mention the paper bags of snacks in their hands, a total of 1000 RMB was spent just this morning!
"Aiyah... My stomach hurts." Xiao Shen moaned in discomfort.
It just tasted so good that he could not stop eating, now he was having a stomach ache.
"Ah, you’re full already?" Tian Hua raised a brow. Then she beamed brightly, showing her cute little dimples as she narrowed her eyes. "Tee-hee, seems like someone has a weak tummy!"
To Xiao Shen’s shock, the petite Tian Hua, whose height did not even reach that of his shoulders, folded away her paper bag and tossed it in the trash.
The entire bag had been emptied!
What kind of monster is this?!!
He blinked his eyes and looked at her in surprise as she snatched his own.
"I’ll help myself to yours,Tee-hee." She laughed cutely.
Xiao Shen pursed his lips and gave her a questioning look. "Hua-Hua... Where is all this food going?"
When they were kids, Tian Hua had always been a head above him! Now, she did not even reach his shoulders!
"....." Tian Hua paused with a small stuffed bun in her mouth. She swallowed and beamed brightly, squeezing her chest using her arms. Her mountain peaks were pressed together and showcased in all it’s glory. "Tee-hee, can’t you see where it’s all going??"
"....." Xiao Shen was at a loss for words.
Tian Hua, that’s not how biology works!
He shook his head and smiled at her. "Anyways, Liang Yang invited me over for a gig. We’re going to be helping out at one of those rich and fancy cocktail parties."
"Ohh," Tian Hua’s eyes gleamed brightly. "Will your Witch friends also be there??"
"Ahaha, no." Xiao Shen chuckled at her enthusiasm. Since yesterday, she had been pestering him to introduce her to his ’Witch friends’.
However, the only witch he knew was Chu Miao, and even she was merely an acquaintance!
What, was he supposed to introduce her to the life stream?
Doing so would cause a lightning tribulation to befall them!
"Bah." The excitement in Tian Hua’s eyes dimmed. "But, even if there’s not going to be any cool witches or anything of the sort, I still want to hang out with you. Can
I come too?"
Xiao Shen smiled and nodded his head. "Sure! I was just about to ask you to tag along!"
