Learning a little

Ju Jin calmly explained to him the rules of the capital, it was going to be a long trip in which they were going to pass through several cities. Which passed through paths that could have bandits apart from some other dangerous monster. The worst thing was that there was a time of migration of flying beasts and going to the capital you could cross several. The normal thing would be to see one or two in some other area but they get together to mate or try their luck in other territories causing some chaos in the kingdom. Since investing in the safety of the roads was something unfeasible for the kingdom, it had also been filled with bandits. So Lia was scared crazy because of her poor fighting ability and how to explain that to officer Ju. What drove him crazy the most was the dress code. There were all the fashions of Earth's antiquity mixed together. Cultivators will dress like the Buddhists or Japanese of old with those weird robes or kimonos giving them typical looks of a cultivator from a wuxia novel. But those who could not cultivate, their cultivation was poor or not good enough depending on the territory they inhabited, would dress as a nobleman or citizen of the European medieval epic.

The nobles or those who will occupy high ranks will dress as a court lady like those rare dresses of old looking like princesses with magical sleeves.

The only ones who seemed to have their own fashion were the merchants who dressed like Arab or Arab sheikhs from the older era according to their wealth and rank regardless of whether they were strong cultivators or not. This drove her crazy, had people of the land transmigrated from those parts of the world and imposed those fashions in those professional fields of application causing this chaos of dress ethics? . Luckily it wasn't compulsory, and you could wear improvised wild clothes in the event of necessity or eccentricity. But since that would include in appearance and reputation who would risk going out like that in an overcrowded place only in small towns, after some cultivation competition or port city you would not be frowned upon. You just needed to prove that you weren't someone harmful to that place, at best you could be accused of being a spy if you asked too many questions or messed with the wrong subject. If you were a woman you could be falsely accused to force a marriage, killing your husband and forcing you to be a concubine was also allowed.

That's why you could only see women walking freely in towns or fields anyone who had a bit of beauty would be locked up at home forever. And they would only come out with veils on sect selection days at best they would hopefully be accepted and protected by them. Although the normal thing would be that they would end up as the wife or concubine of a fellow disciple being locked up again to avoid being robbed. That's why it was rare to see her being alone if she wasn't for Ju's help she could easily have been locked up in that town. But now she understood that she had to dress as a man and hide on the trip if she didn't want to end up being locked up or worse. Only when she arrived in the capital she couldn't avoid it, she would have to use the etiquette and dress like a Japanese or an old lady, the one that caused her least disgust was the Japanese, nor was she crazy, she put on a corset.

The trouble was that she had no idea how to use it or how to behave but well, taking as deep a breath as possible to calm down because she was afraid, her fears about this world were not unfounded. He cursed this world inside him, he needed tools to survive and isolate himself as much as possible. He had told her about how the mixed sects worked, surely in the unisec they could become worse, who knows if there are ways to use another cultivator as a source of cultivation through some kind of sacrifice. Or worse she could suffer a fit of jealousy from some partner or envy and be thrown into the bed of some man.

Fear, extreme fear, is there a way to live in this world without fear, is there a way to die without suffering.

Fashions were a mess and people were even worse, the world needed a change and fast. She just hoped she could lock herself in some corner and survive.

Truly, life was disgusting, they thought and said, they had been packing clothes and some weapons and armor. Full body for all Lía gave him a blue pearl for her help because she wanted some change, it was not a good idea to go crazy taking out pearls especially of the quality that she possessed. If they didn't go after her because of her beauty, they would surely go because of what she possessed, she doesn't know if there will be space bags in this world and she didn't ask if there was something similar. Meanwhile she would only have common bags which she tied to her chest and stomach to hide her breasts during the trip. Already at the entrance of the city they had ways to see if one was a man or a woman by the way the qi was in her body so she could not hide it, she could only hide her face and hair with mud and pray.

The only reason she persisted in going was to get camouflage arrays to ensure a safe haven. She used to think of hiding or something between people but according to what she heard that seemed impossible.

Ju Jin and everyone who went with him had seen her without her male clothes and her face without messing up with those weird slimes, they were also worried about drawing her attention because of her even though she was strong. In the worst case she could abandon them and they didn't want to part from her especially Ju because of the pearls or her exotic beauty, but he didn't have the strength to push her or protect her so he only admired her, since she had rejected him but she understood for her he didn't have her insurance parameters.

And the truth is that he wouldn't want to force her, he really liked her, he just thought about it, but considering everything she is, it would be difficult for them not to take her away from him, and that hurt.
