Gakuto had late childbirth as he was busy adapting to the family head position. Gakuto's mother died when they were young and his father went to faraway lands as his place had no improvement in cultivation.
"Why are you still carrying her brother-in-law? Just sell her," said Fuyumi without connecting her brain to mouth. That really pained Yuki and a few of them. Gakuto and Akihiko only felt bad but didn't speak as they were the reason that the wealth was lost.
Yuki thought, 'Well, this looking down on girls is the only drawback of this world.'
"Fuyumi," shouted Katsuo in anger and slapped her face. *slap*
'Wow, that must have hurt a lot, I meant in heart,' Yuki said to herself.
Fuyumi looked at him in shock with widened eyes, "you just hit me? For that bitch?"
"Shut up," Katsuo shouted, "Is that a sentence a woman should be talking? That too to someone who is like you daughter." Fuyumi lowered her head in shame.
'Yeah, how can she say that?' Yuki wondered and said, "That enough uncle," while getting down from Gakuto's back. Everyone looked at Yuki in worry as she heard it, "you need money right?"
She took 20 silver coins from her storage, took Fuyumi's hand and put half of them in her hand and then she did the same to Chisato.
"I will bring more tomorrow. Adjust with this for today," she said, everyone was in wonder as to where she took them from. She thought she could make pills and sell them to sustain the family until they get back to normal position.
"Yuki, where did you take those coins from?" asked Gakuto as she got checked by female cultivators of enemies before leaving the town.
"From storage ring, where else," she said.
'Host, you got checked before by enemies,' the system notified.
Yuki felt awkward by the doubtful looks on their faces, then she saw her marriage ring and said, "Would you believe me if I say my marriage ring is a storage ring modified by my master?"
"Then why didn't anyone find it?" Gakuto asked.
"It's because it can be only opened by my cosmos energy," Yuki bluffed, "this ring is from faraway lands where my master came from, no one can use it once it got imprinted with my cosmos energy."
"Quickly show what you have in that?" asked Chisato as she thought Yuki would keep them for herself. Katsunari felt embarrassed to have such a selfish wife. As before she had everything, he didn't notice.
Yuki hated her greedy behavior and took out all the herbs and pills that she took from the Hoshi family and made. She said, "These belong to father-in-law," then she took out the furnace, "this is a gift from Akira," then she took out a book, "this is the alchemy techniques I used, to learn alchemy and make pills, you can sell it for few gold coins."
She gave the book to Chisato, Chisato got happy and said, "Good, we can sell this book," Yuki did it on purpose to show how greedy and foolish she was. Katsunari felt embarrassed about her behavior. Others looked at her with disdain that she didn't notice.
Then suddenly a man came, took the book from Chisato and rushed away.
The 5 men on alert tried to follow him but Yuki with a calm smile said, "No need to go, the book is empty. Did you really think I would give a priceless treasure to someone who would sell it for gold?" The men got relaxed and praised her.
The man who robbed it opened the book in happy, 'I am going to be rich,' and it was empty, he tore the book in rage and shouted, "Damn you little bitch."
Chisato in anger shouted, "Do you just fool me?"
"Stop embarrassing yourself Chisato," advised Katsunari, "you almost gave such a precious thing away to our enemies. Yuki must have done that on purpose to see if anyone is following us. We didn't sense them."
"I am not trying to fool you aunt," explained Yuki but she did for the exact reason, "you will get your life of enjoying tea back even if I have to make my bones as teacup and blood as tea," to scare Chisato.
Chisato got scared and rejected it, "no...no need to go that far."

Megumi was sitting on a bed with a beautiful dress and makeup, all the light in her life and face was gone with Yuki's defeat, even though her belief came true about Yuki but the circumstances made her a victim.
Fumihiro didn't feel any remorse even after Megumi's prediction was true, as he couldn't take the gift he gave to such a big figure as Kanesuke he gave up on Megumi.
*slam slam*
The room doors got opened and Kanesuke who was drunk came in, he didn't even close the door in the intoxication, as he was very happy to get a beautiful young girl. He looked into her face *burp* the gas hit her face from his mouth but she didn't move.
"You already broke before doing anything, children these days don't have any perseverance at all," said Kanesuke as he did it to many young girls.
He sat next to her and caught her left boob. He started to fondle it when Megumi reacted to the sensation, "ho ho! There is still sensation? Then this won't be boring," said Kanesuke by getting happy.
His assistant closed the door of the room by giggling at Kanesuke's words. After 1 hour, Kanesuke came out, the assistant felt confused and asked, "Master, why did you come so fast?"
"While doing my favorite exercise I suddenly got a doubt," Kanesuke explained, "every time I have been climbing different heights of mountains but I never walked on plain grounds. I want to see how it feels like walking on the ground with one hand and climbing a mountain with another hand."
The assistant understood that and with excitement, he said, "So you want her? I heard she is still pure, that bitch will be hard to tame."
*slap* Kanesuke slapped him, "she is my bitch," he shouted in anger.
The assistant got scared and said, "I...I will bring miss. Yuki as soon as possible master," he rushed away.
'Hard to tame? That is the most exciting part of the pleasure,' thought Kanesuke while giggling and drank his wine.

The 2 families reached a village. The villagers saw them with good clothes and welcomed them politely. They took them to the village chief.
"We are wandering cultivators, can we stay here for the night?" asked Yuki as others were embarrassed. They had never done this before.
The village chief happily welcomed them, "you are welcome here, wait for a moment, we will arrange the rooms."
Chisato unwilling to sleep in a small village said, "Why should we stay here? We have money, let's stay in a lodge." Yuki felt very bad for causing such inconvenience to them.
After they were settled in a few houses, Yuki came out of the room that she was sharing with Mira.
She looked at the sky that was filled with more stars than the polluted sky in her previous life while remembered her mother saying, "You will influence people just by being there, so instead of ignoring, make sure that they will either benefit or at least don't get irritated by you.
Everything in this world is connected with energy called cosmos energy; bad thoughts about you will definitely hit you at the worst point in life, so always influence people in a good way."
Then she remembers him saying, "But you said we shouldn't influence people."
Haruka replied, "yes but people will get influenced by one or another, so if you are good enough, then it's ok to influence them in a good way. Again as I said, everyone is connected by cosmos energy; do you know Japanese when you were born? No right?
You learned it by hearing from others and everything else is also the same. If you get raised with good people, you will become good and bad people make you bad. Same like if you were raised in western countries, you would lose life in your face and will be good in English."
Yuki decided to give them a better life than they used to have to make up for this inconvenience but she knew she was too dumb to earn money and asked, 'system, before you said in this world earning money is easy. Can you tell me one? But before that...why didn't you remind me that my energies were low while I am challenging?'
'To take you out of your comfort zone, are you mad at me?' the system asked.
'Of course not, I know everything you do is for my sake,' replied Yuki in serene.
'Host, can I advise you on something that you don't like?' the system requested.
'Ok,' permitted Yuki in curious about what it would say.
'Host path is filled with fighting and making a lot of enemies, right?'
'I am not jumping with joy to make enemies, it's just happening like that.'
'That is what I am advising about, you want to have inner peace and I don't want to stop you from it.'
'Come to the point.'
'You are not good at inner peace host, not because you are incapable or anything. It's just that your fate is of a leading way. You are more of a leader-type person and inner peace is more of a lone-type person way. So inner peace won't work for you at such young age. I advise you to experience the world completely first, then you will know what to do and what not to do.'
Yuki thought for a few minutes about this and then she said, 'I am pursuing inner peace because that is what mom said to me. I never thought about what to do,' then she decided, 'system, you are someone who is connected to the universe, so I will follow your advice from now on but I will still keep inner peace as my motto.'
