Chapter 31: IT WILL BE GOOD FROM NOW ON.

(Zoru, I want to tell you a story. Although it is boring try to listen to it yeah for me, either way, it is not too long. A simple story, once upon a time a little girl was born in a powerful clan but instead of celebrating her birth they were planning to kill her at a perfect time so that the family patriarch can gain more powers and can destroy the bad omen born in his clan. A little girl who didn't even know anything was already mentioned as evil because of the future vision of a psychic who said that she will kill her father but if they will kill her after she is nineteen years old the person who kills her receive great power. Just like that everyone looked at the little girl as a symbol of evil charm who is merely there for the use of patriarch. They didn't treat her like a normal human being. Hell! She was not treated like an animal in their clan. She was just four years old when she was badly hurt by her father because he absorbed too much her cultivation power. She went to meet with her mother just like every normal kid who is scared after facing a near death event but she has to wait on her doorsteps for entire two days before her mother allowed her in. The little girl was too happy to meet with her mother. There were not too many occasion that she gets to leave her work and studies so she was too happy to meet her mother after watching her from afar. Do you know what she got after meeting with that woman 'who is this dirty kid?' but still that little girl didn't lose any hope because she knew that she never was face to face with her mother so she reminded her that she is her daughter and what father has done to her. She was expecting the warmth of a mother that she had seen others getting but all her hopes shattered that day. All her love turned into hatred.) Zhen Xiu choked on her words after speaking for too long.

Zoru knew that she was telling her own story which he has never thought about asking. He was sad to see this strong woman crying like a soulless defeated person.

[Master..]

(HUH! Don't call me master. I am not your master I am just here to fulfill her wish. You really don't have to behave like this. Just listen to my story completely and I won't ask you much. I will dutifully do my work and try to help your master resurrect back again by using my soul. At least one of us can be happy and live a fulfilling life. Just hear it once.) She chuckled at her pleading. Looks like her story is so boring that even he is not interested in hearing her, it looks like she really did live in vain.

(Let's get back to the story it is about to complete. I will not bore you too much. Her mother said that what was she doing there and why did she waste two days just to meet her? That silly girl thought her mother is worried about her leaving her studies so she excitedly told her that she is here to meet her mother just like everyone else and it was the first time that she was allowed to come here. But her mother said that who was her mother? She was the head lady and not a mother of this beggar. A vessel that was meant for extracting power was nothing but a tool beside she was an evil spirit known by everyone.

That silly girl cried hard kneeling on the floor to get acknowledged by her mother but she didn't get any acknowledgment but punishment to be thrown inside the forbidden forest for one month for creating nuisance in front of the head lady. The little girl now knew about her position and all the feelings, innocence and childishness, everything vanished from her like it was never present before. She was forced to grow up when she was just a four-year-old kid. There was no love for her, she never felt happy and in anger when she killed her mother at the age of eight she completely became an evil monster in front of others. She killed and lived in that prestigious clan. She was a princess in name but in reality she was just like a beast who has to live in jail cell every day and go fight with fighters or animals in their fighting arena and when there is enough power to absorb her father will come and absorb every bit of it until she is on the verge of death.)

[It is really a sad story but the girl was strong to survive in this. I impressed by her. Indeed, a good thing she killed that evil-witch-child-tormentor.] Zoru tried to joke and make her relax but this time there was no effect.

Zhen Xiu gave him a pained smile. (It's alright you don't have to pretend. I just wanted to know what my fault was exactly. I was just a child back then. I am sorry for my outburst. Let's talk about your master's feelings and perspective.)

Zoru was silent. This was not a good time to talk about her because she is really not feeling good.

(Don't worry I will not compare myself with her. I know I am emotionless when it comes to feelings but I am not that petty. I know that everyone has their own story and choices. I am evil to those who really need that evil dose. I don't believe that psychic and his shit visions. You can tell me. My life was bad so I really can't blame anyone.)

[It will be good from now on.]

(Damn right, it will be because we have to wreak havoc in the life of all those evildoers. I will try to find a way to resurrect her back.)
