Xiaoyan knew why did General An brought her here in this house. It was not well-known fact that the daughter of the House Jun was bullied by her parents. Before she became fourteen her parents used punish her for every small thing. Now they expect her to be the same mindless idiot that she was 7 years ago? No thanks.
After she became fourteen an accident happens and her grand-father the leader of house Jun decided to give his title to his grand-daughter instead of his son. It was some what true that Xiaoyan's cultivation skills was better than her father's but at that time girls were no allowed to cultivate. So, to support her. Xiaoyan's grandmother who have been separate from the family politics for more than 10 years decided to step in and made a bold move. As the elder she had all the rights to change the rule of House Jun and she did. She removed the rule of girls not allowed to cultivate and hence Xiaoyan got an opening to her future.
Xiaoyan at the age of fifteen started her training as the very first heiress of house Jun. But rather than an heiress she was becoming the puppet of her parent's hands. That day when her mother and father had their very first fight in the Palace Huang. Xiaoyan slipped away as her grandmother advised her and had gone to Mount Liaoyang to cultivate. Which was told by her close friend. There she met Jinxiao and also some what built a relationship between spirits there.
After 7 years of her humble and cultivation life this was her first time entering House Jun. As her father and mother smiled wickedly, they have noted that their daughter was 21 now and had a beautiful figure which can be married off as some government officer's first wife. Xiaoyan knew that her father and mother are both no good and perhaps the lady sitting inside the room was her father's lover? She smiled sweetly. Which gave her parents the impression that their daughter is still the young mindless idiot. A voice came from behind "Young beautiful lady, if you come with your father, I may give you the chance of becoming the wife of the crown Prince?" It was her father's lover indeed. Xiaoyan smiled even brighter. Well, it is a huge thing that she would blush upon the idea of becoming the wife of a crown prince while kicking and cursing a god? She sighed and with the brightest fake smile ever in her life she said "I would like to go with the father."
Father's eyes beamed and he hugged his lover tightly. Enough that her mother got jealous and made a face. Just as Xiaoyan tried to walk away her mother stopped her and said "Meet me at Palace Huang in evening tomorrow." With these words she let Xiaoyan go. Xiaoyan was tried of all the drama and stuff she just went back to her room and sat down in her bed. Just as she was breathing the air of relief. Jinxiao came and asked "What is this drama going on about?" Xiaoyan looked up and said "You know, my grand-mother changed the rule of girls not allowed cultivate but in exchange she had to create a new law up on girls under 28 will have a guardian. Because I am still 21 my parents are practically thinking that they can control the crown of House Jun now." Jinxiao sighed as he thought these humans have stupid rule over everything small.
Just as Jinxiao was about to walk away General An came inside the room. The both of them flinched at each other's presence. General An politely took a chair from the near and sat across Xiaoyan and asked her "Who is your guardian now?" "Father." Said Xiaoyan without giving much thought. General An sighed and said "You know the one who stabbed you in the market earlier? We had found the trace of the person." Xiaoyan sighed and said "No need, I had put a tracking spell in the person's hands. I can track them at any time now." General An knew from the start that Xiaoyan was no ordinary one to deal with. If he had to help her, he had to be two steps ahead off her but it doesn't matter as she will be always 5 steps ahead of him already. Just as General An was standing up and going out. Xiaoyan grabbed him and said "Can you please arrange a carriage for me tomorrow. I want to meet the person." She asked. General An just nodded and went out. Jinxiao who was there the all time also said "Then I am also going." "If you are going it is better to be never be back." Xiaoyan said carelessly. Again, Jinxiao was hurt by those words and he knew that a day will come when he really had to leave Xiaoyan at some point. As he was a god and he could be with her any longer.
After Jinxiao left Xiaoyan sat on her bed again and stared at the window watching the bird's fly. After a few minutes she sat up and walked towards a shelf. Inside that shelf there was tons and tons of books. Under all the books was a diary. Diary of 10-year-old Xiaoyan. She opened the diary and read it. It was mentioned multiple times that she wanted to go to market with her parents some day and eat and play all day. How she wanted to hug her father or mother just for once. Xiaoyan finally half way through the diary couldn't hold in anymore and shoved the diary aside while she cried silent tears in her room again after 7 years.
