Genshu Hao sighed to himself as he drank the cup of fresh tea as he looked at the morning sun, enjoying the rays of sunlight that fell on his body. He is a 15 year old member of the Moon Swallow Sect, and also a reincarnator as well.
He is someone who is close to the lady of their sect, being brought into the sect by the granddaughter of the Head of the Sect. Due to this, he has importance in the sect which grants him a level of protection and he is in an amicable relationship with the rest of its members.
He is a good looking man, not drop dead gorgeous but he is definitely better than most. He has white hair, blue eyes and pale skin, yet despite all of these traits, he didn't believe that he truly had gotten the so called golden finger for reincarnation.
But he wasn't that worried about it, as he wasn't someone who believed that you were entitled to get some boon just because you had reincarnated. The fact that they are even able to enjoy another life is a gift that not everyone can get, so he isn't going to think that he is about to get some advantage over others due to his rebirth.
He had recovered his memories when he was four years old, but by that time he had already been taken into the sect and unfortunately for him, he didn't know who his parents were. The only thing he knows about them is that they were friends with the sect leader's granddaughter and he was taken in after their passing in a disaster.
Genshu Hao drank the rest of the tea before he got up and stretched a bit as he smiled and walked back from the cliff where he was relaxing towards his home, the abode of the Moon Swallow Sect as he smiled as he walked. He was pretty certain that the person he is waiting for will be walking in the place.
And he was right as he smiled as he saw her walking with dignified steps. The girl is one of the rising stars of the Sect, having great potential and advancing in the cultivation ladder and is someone who is well liked by the sect and is of great importance to them.
And she is also the girl that he has been chasing for years now. While most reincarnators would try to gain power or other things, he doesn't crave power, not when he is in a good position in the sect to have protection from the princess of the clan, and it wasn't like he is slacking off in his cultivation, he is working on it, but he isn't as talented as he had hoped to be.
"Zhu Li!" Genshu Hao called out to the girl with a smile.
Zhu Li sighed to herself as she heard that and turned to look at the boy. The is a beautiful girl, with black hair which reached her knees, fair skin, beautiful red eyes, and a face that captured the attention of people. She is a very beautiful girl and despite being of the same age as he is, she is already turning heads, both in terms of beauty and cultivation.
He was taken by her beauty and personality when he had met her and he has been trying to get her to like him. Though it has always ended in failure, he didn't stop. She didn't have a partner so he didn't think it would be a bad thing for him to pursue her. This time, in this life, he wanted to get a girlfriend and perhaps an even closer relationship.
And he has been pursuing her since they were 9 years old. And she has grown accustomed to his attempts at getting her as she looked at him with her arms crossed under her growing breasts which were developing very well.
"Genshu Hao, I am not going to agree." Zhu Li said as she just stared at him.
"Come on Zhu Li. Why can't you give me a chance?" Genshu Hao asked with a smile.
"Just because lady Yanyue likes you doesn't mean that I will agree to your proposal." Zhu Li said haughtily as she crossed her arms.
"Come on, you are the rising star of the sect and I am a very well liked member of the sect and is favoured by the princess." Genshu Hao said with a smile.
"And you are not even at my level of cultivation. I am close to transcending the gold core stage. You are still only at the copper core stage." Zhu Li said to him with a huff.
"Well, I'm not as talented as you are so it's normal that I would have trouble in it." Genshu Hao said with a smile on his face.
It was true after all. He has followed the teachings of the sect, but it is quite hard for him to advance in his cultivation. He was able to create a foundation and advance into the copper core stage, but he has felt that he is close to transcending it, though it isn't a guarantee.
"I am trying my best though, you can't say that I'm being lazy about it." Genshu Hao said with a smile on his face as she sighed.
"You are someone who is liked by lady Yanyue, so you need to get better in your cultivation, especially since you're associated with the lady." Zhu Li said as she looked at him.
Genshu Hao chuckled nervously at her words as he understood what she is saying. As someone who was brought into the sect by her, he is often associated with her and his own conduct is reflected in her as well. And while his cultivation is not that impressive, his personality and actions are however good as he has a pretty good relationship with the people of the sect, which caused the lady to be praised for raising such a good child.
"I am doing what I can on my cultivation. But, we can talk about that later. I have this very rare sweets that I was gifted. I wish to eat them with you." Genshu Hao said with a smile.
"No. I am going to start training for my cultivation. I am close to transcending my stage, and I won't be distracted by it." Zhu Li said as she walked past him as he watched her go.
He sighed to himself as he walked away, knowing that disturbing her during her training would only earn him her ire, especially since he also has some jobs to do.
While he officially doesn't have much power in the sect, he often works as a secret mediator for the members, which often led to him brokering deals and exchanges and his position as the child brought by the princess gave him protection and the ability to do these things. He has been doing this for a while and has managed to gain the trust of many in the sect, and he also has to do some work due to it as well, though he didn't mind it as it gave him some position of power in their community, and having the trust and goodwill of many of the sect members is a good thing.
Not to mention the fact that he did get some very good items as payments and thanks for his work as a mediator, and due to how his personality is, he is in an amicable relationship with everyone in the sect, which also allows him to talk with others without getting any sort of badwill from them, and he considers it a very good skill to have, especially in a community.
But because of the fact that his actions are not actually done in public due to the fact that these exchanges are private, so only those whom he has helped and mediated for know of this, so he knows that only the higher ups know about his, if his suspicions are right.
But it wasn't like he is about to advertise that fact to everyone. That is one thing he won't do, as his trustworthiness in front of the other members is measured by how he is able to keep these transactions secret, as some are things they would not tell openly to others.
"Well, this morning started good like always, now time to do some work." Genshu Hao said with a smile as he walked to get another successful job done.
