Fellow Daoist! That scoundrel has written a new book again.

Chapter 287 Rebirth of the Fake Golden Beast Tamer as King

Zhu Wuyao noticed this last time he came: the storytelling business is not as easy as it used to be; you have to show some real skills now.

Therefore, "Rebirth of a Fake Heiress: Taming Beasts and Becoming King" combines rebirth, real and fake heiresses, beast taming, and a cheat code.

The inspiration came from her entanglement with Shen Xun.

As unsuspecting beneficiaries, they are actually in a similar situation to the fake heiress.

If she could do it all over again, she would never be so rash as to meddle and accept that wooden plaque.

It shouldn't be like this now. Not to mention that he can't repay this fortune, even if he could, Zhu Wuyao wouldn't dare to easily repay it without absolute protection for his own life.

The stalemate can only continue like this.

Zhu Wuyao didn't want to go too far and kill someone, nor did she want to easily trust Shen Xun's character. Therefore, she could only retaliate in kind, striking back whenever Shen Xun made a move.

Try your best to always be stronger than Shen Xun.

Whether I kill you or not depends on whether you want to kill me, provided there is a significant difference in strength.

But the initiative must be in our own hands.

Every time Zhu Wuyao thought about this, he felt a headache coming on. If he hadn't been so clueless when he first transmigrated and hadn't had so little contact with the Star-Picking Tower or destiny, he would never have chosen to step forward directly.

We should at least be more tactful.

When one has something in mind, one can put pen to paper.

Zhu Wuyao lamented her ill-fated life, while Gu Lang eagerly flipped through the manuscript beside her.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

The main character in the book is named Shi Huai.

In her previous life, she had a happy and fulfilling first half. Born into a family of cultivators, she had no shortage of cultivation resources from a young age. At the young age of twenty, she had already established her foundation. Moreover, her parents were loving and always there for her.

Growing up under such pampering and indulgence, Shi Huai naturally assumed that he would take over the Shi family and become the head of the family.

But all of this changed on her twenty-eighth birthday.

A young woman came to our door.

Holding a jade pendant in her hand, she claimed that she was the true descendant of the Shi family.

Looking at the girl's appearance, she bore an uncanny resemblance to her mother.

After going through a complicated process of bloodline determination, Shi Huai became the fake heiress that everyone avoided.

Her old friends were no longer friendly, and her kind elders turned cold. Only her parents tried their best to keep her, saying that they could afford to raise two daughters.

As she packed her bags to leave home, her parents waited in the corner, their eyes filled with tears, and said:

"Are you going to be that heartless person who doesn't care about their parents, turning their backs on them the moment the blood ties are gone?"

The Shi couple's desperate attempts to persuade him to stay swayed Shi Huai.

She moved to the small courtyard, accepting her parents' suggestion, and tried her best to build a good relationship with Shi Jin—the true daughter of the Shi family.

Shi Jin's adoptive parents died, and only before they died did they take out the jade pendant and reveal that she was just a child picked up by the roadside. In order to find her biological parents, Shi Jin experienced the coldness and warmth of human relationships and became timid.

Initially, the two did have a good relationship.

Shi Huai taught her how to survive in a noble family and how to wield a sword. Shi Jin was extremely poor at aptitude, and after returning home, her initial enthusiasm faded, and she was not well received.

When did it start to change?

It was probably when Shi Jin faced her parents' disappointed gaze once again that she blurted out that sentence—

"That's how Sister Shi Huai taught me."

As a result, the disappointed looks from the crowd turned into suspicion towards Shi Huai.

But at this very moment, the Shi couple firmly stated:

"Both of you are my daughters. Whoever achieves the Golden Core stage first will become the next head of the family."

Shi Huai was deeply moved.

This made her overlook just how terrible Shi Jin's expression was.

It was from this point that the collateral branches of the Shi family began to take sides, and Shi Huai, wavering between sides, was pushed by the crowd to the opposite side of Shi Jin.

Coupled with the words of the Shi couple, Shi Huai, who was being groomed to be the next head of the Shi family, also felt a surge of ambition and pride.

And so, the struggle began.

To Shi Huai's surprise, Shi Jin, who had extremely poor talent, encountered a series of fortuitous events after traveling abroad, and awakened his bloodline talent after undergoing a marrow cleansing.

From then on, his breakthroughs were incredibly rapid.

This makes the statement "That's how Sister Shi Huai taught me" even more credible.

Even Shi's parents gradually turned their attention to Shi Jin, and began to suspect that Shi Huai might be deliberately framing Shi Jin for fear of being completely replaced.

This left Shi Huai speechless.

In the end, the two entered the secret realm together and fought a life-or-death battle.

Shi Huai's plan fell short, and he died by Shi Jin's sword. It was thought that this was the end, but Shi Huai's soul did not dissipate after his death.

Instead, he witnessed Shi Jin suffering a backlash from his cultivation technique in the secret realm, losing all his senses.

It turns out that her rapid progress was not only due to the awakening of her bloodline talent, but also because she obtained a dark magic book during her travels!

Shi Huai's soul wandered back to the Shi family couple, only to discover a shocking secret—

It turns out that the babies weren't switched at birth.

Rather, it was because Shi Jin was born with extremely poor talent and had no chance of entering the Golden Core stage. In order to keep the position of the head of the main branch, he personally switched the pillars.

They bought Shi Huai and pretended to be her daughter.

Yet, unable to bear it, he placed a jade pendant around his own daughter's neck.

Therefore, after Shi Jin came looking for him, he tried his best to persuade Shi Huai to stay!

The discord between Shi Huai and Shi Jin stemmed not only from a conflict of interests, but also from the instigation of Steward Song, a spy sent by a collateral branch to the main household!

The evil technique that Shi Jin mastered was something that this Steward Song secretly gave her.

Due to a combination of factors, they ultimately suffered heavy losses, leading to their mutual destruction and death in the secret realm.

Having been given a second chance at life, Shi Huai decides to take his destiny into his own hands.

She had just opened her eyes when she heard a sound beside her.

"Miss, something terrible has happened! There's a young lady outside claiming to be the real heiress of the Shi family!"

At the same time, a few lines of text appeared before her eyes—

"Beast Taming System is now bound"

"Task 1: Raise three spirit birds."

"Quest Reward: A handful of spirit rice that will help the spirit bird enhance its spiritual consciousness."

After figuring out what a "system" and "beast taming" meant, Shi Huai slowly raised a smile.

She stepped out of the house and walked to the Shi family's door.

They saw Shi Jin, who was still in a particularly disheveled state.

Taming beasts is already the invincible path, why should I need to take another's life!

Gu Lang eagerly flipped to the next page, but it was gone... How could it be gone?!

Then what!!

"Quick, and then what?! Will Shi Huai leave the Shi family? That beast taming system, my god, how did you even come up with this idea!"

"Old Li was right after all. You have no writing skills at all, but your ingenious ideas are endless!"

"Miss Zhu, this plot was so satisfying! When I first saw the word 'rebirth,' I was actually a little disappointed in you, thinking you'd run out of ideas!!"

Gu Lang began to rock Zhu Wuyao back and forth, even more excited about the upcoming plot than when he saw "Sword Immortal Master".

The reason is simple: the "Beast Taming System" is just too novel!
