I'm The Lowest-Ranking Daughter Of A Martial Arts Villain (2 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 242
An ominous feeling brushed down Jin Ryo’s spine.
“No, Senior. Just a moment…”
“If they’re demanding you hand over the Kunlun Eight Immortals, it seems there are no age or seniority restrictions.”
“There’s absolutely no way Grand Ancestor would appear at the Dragon and Phoenix Gathering!”
Sharp-minded, this kid.
Jin Ryo had only asked about eligibility, yet instantly saw through Na Rin’s intentions—it felt as if fire had dropped onto his feet.
‘I absolutely cannot let her enter the tournament!’
From the very beginning, the purpose of this Dragon and Phoenix Gathering was to widely demonstrate Shaolin Temple’s supremacy throughout the martial world. Naturally, the eventual champion ought to be a Shaolin disciple, while other participants should merely offer token resistance and then graciously praise, “Indeed, truly Shaolin Temple!”
“You were the one who said you wanted to see Kunlun Sect’s strength first.”
“But that doesn’t mean I wish to see someone of Grand Ancestor’s stature bullying junior disciples.”
“True. That would be rather unseemly.”
Na Rin’s eyes sparkled brightly.
“Then I’ll just have to hit the adults instead of the kids.”
“Wh-what are you…!”
Jin Ryo couldn’t bring himself to finish the sentence—“saying such nonsense?!”—knowing full well Na Rin would immediately scold him if he did.
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”

NaRin is just too weak. Giving up so easily isn’t so Lady-like. 😅
Well.. they are cute. Didn’t he tell her about the other lost relics? She has got the paper..
I remember that in Europe, the early potato growers sometimes ate the poisonous green leaves or fruits instead of the tubers, leading to actual poisoning. However it was a famine food at some period of time, too.
