3 Chapter 3

It was raining heavily. The lightening struck down in the distance,which brought a white flash to the dark front yard of the Maple countyard...

In the rain,stood a white figure.

Her mourning clothes were closed to her skin... rain fell onto her head.... Streaks of water on her face.her eyes were closed and her face was up.... as if the rain could wash away her grief and hatred..

Then,muffled voices came out feom her tightly pressed lips..

And then,

"Ugh,Ha ha ha ha... Ahh... Uhh ...Ha ha ha ha ....!"

The figure fell onto her knees and clenched her heart....

No one could hear me now.... she thought.. .

But even if someone did see her ,she would not care...

"Ahhhhhhh!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"AhhhhhhhhAhhhhhhAhhhhh!"

She wailed and shouted till her voice went out but the suffocating feeling did not go.

'I can't even scream now....' the person thought as more and more tears flowed down her cheeks to join with the heavy rain ....

She wanted to sleep but she could not bring herself to move away from the place...

Well,dying is also not a bad thing..

And she closed her eyes...

Then,she felt that the rain was not falling onto her...

Someone scooped her up into his or her cold embrace and carried her away from the rain....

"Mom...." She said that and fell asleep ,a smile bloomed on her

face.

The person stopped for a moment as a stifled sob came out .

That person proceeded to carry the little girl into her room...

.....

After the heavy rain,is the sunshine and rainbows.. ..

But Sen Thider was greeted with bad news.

The physician let go of her wrist and wrote something on the paper.

"You are in high fever,little girl.." he said as he handed the paper to Yin....

"You should careful about the weather.Now,I must go to another two misses in your household.... Ay,young ones are really Delicate..

They are so weak... Tsk Tsk"

And he muttered a bunch of words along the lines of white hair see black hair out and things like that...

Thider rolled her eyes.... It's not like this could kill her.... But...

'Tell me something,Philia,what's up with my body now?'

Philia's old voice came into her mind... 'You are recovering.... that pills are only suited for the bodies of cultivaters above the Seven moons stage.... So,You are having this fever..But don't worry.you won't blow up...'

'...'Are you mocking me!?

Ay,there are too many obstacles around here.... I can't check on my physical exercises ..... Can't go to my half siblings.. . Can't go outside to buy new seeds ...Can't go see my fiance....

Ahhh,life is too boring! There are so many things to do...and yet I can't do anything.. .. I'm so useless!

Thider held her head in dismay. ..

"Miss?"What's up with her?Headache?

"Zin,who else is sick in this manor?"

"Fourth miss...Eldest miss...."

"Thought so...."

"eh?"

"Nothing,"

They must be venting their grievousness in that heavy rain... Don't ask how I know it... They always do that in novels... They,probably hate me right now... #Sigh# Being sick is not cool at all.

Thider turned to the side facing the wall...."I'm gonna sleep"

'sleep!' Zin and Yin paled drastically.. After all ,the last time she said she' gonna sleep,It ended up with a fever and poison....

"Don't worry,I won't die from it...."

.....

"Third miss is getting weaker since that day..."

Sen Kyi Kyi heard one of her maids talking near the door..

"Yes,they said that it was a miracle that she's still living ... there is a chance that she would be disabled for life!"

"Huh?How would she cultivate then?Won't she become a waste?!"

"Enough!"Sen Kyi Kyi threw her medicine bowl at the group of maids."How dare you talk about your master in such a way? Go get your punishments from butler

Sen! Out!"

"Eldest miss,please forgive us!"

"Roll!"

She glared at them... with cold eyes...

The maids cleaned up the mess and stumbled out of the countyard ,trembling as they did so...

Kyi Kyi pressed her temple and sighed .

A night in the rain had sobered her up somewhat from the pain.

She thought to the past where her mother was there...

When she was young,her Mom had always said....

"Sen Kyi Kyi,you are the eldest daughter of the Sen Family.Although you are not the legal child... You must become the pride of this family... like your eldest brother and second brother."

Her happy smile filled with pride when her top-grade dual spirit roots were revealed....

"Kyi Kyi,it is important to have the best of all things to have a strong hold in this family...

You must attend the best academy,make good friends and cultivate diligently to reach the top.It would be good if you can marry the best man in this country!"

Her words when she played the other kids in the manor and got along quite well with them..

"Kyi Kyi,don't trust people easily.

Don't tell your secrets to even your closest kin.You must be on alert with every move you make.."

Then,one day,she told her something while looking into the distance...

" When you want something ...

Kyi Kyi,You can work hard for it,fight for it,... if you can't.. just snatch it.. and if you still can't get what you can't till then,you have two choices.. destroy it or just let it go and move on..."

Kyi Kyi did not understand why she would say that back then...but now....

"Mother,that was not worth it...."

She sobbed while hiding her face in her arms....

"That was not worth it at all!"

She remembered how her mother would gaze in the direction of the moon gate every evening and grit her teeth everytime it turned dark... and no one came... No...

Kyi Kyi smiled bitterly... When her father won't come.

Her mother would do 'anything' to get his attention... 'Anything'

despite the fact that he only looked at the madam Sen.

Madam Sen was an extraordinary woman.She was very beautiful,and very talented ...

plus,her temperament is also great..She was not seeking for Father's attention like her mother..... instead,she would look at him with disdain everytime he look for her ... just like how Father look at mother whenever he meets her....

Kyi Kyi also like this lady,although she would hate her sometimes because of her mother...

Back then,Mother would flew into a rage every now and then... because of that person..

It was somewhat unsightly...After all ,the other party was not even ...#sigh#

It would have been great if they were good friends... but that was not impossible..

Madam Sen died after giving birth to the little Thider...

She really hated Thider back then... because of her ,a perfectly good lady had to go.... Damn,that child!

But she also knew that this child was also unlucky enough to have no mother.... after all,that father figure there was not a good person in Kyi Kyi's mind...

But the thing that troubled her the most was her mother's expression back then..

There was an obvious sign of relief and happiness in her eyes..but that happiness was not the same with the one she expressed when she saw Kyi Kyi's talent..

It was madness ....

After some years,she asked mother something she wanted to know for along time.

"Mother,do you love father that much ?"

Her answer left her even more puzzled.

Her mother thought seriously for a long while.... Then,she seemed to have realised something...

"No,"

Tears fell uncontroably as she hugged her and said ,

"Child ,what have I done!?"

And she cried for a long time...

She turned normal,the next day...

No,there was something different

It was resignation.. ..and

determination.

She didn't like that look at all...

....

"But Mother,it still wasn't worth it!"

.....

........

........

"What did you say!?"

Thider sat up on bed .

"Eldest miss is going to admit to spirit sword sect .... She is going today....."

But Zin didn't see her miss on the bed then...

Yin felt that something flew pass her and turned to find a fleeying blue robe by the door...

"Where did miss go?"

...

"Then,I will go now,father...."

Kyi Kyi bow downed to pay homage to the man she knew as her father and turned and left.

Looking at the back of the lonely girl,PaPaSen sighed.

"I am sorry,my child.I'll let you chose your life"

Kyi Kyi frozed for a second before continuing her steps.

"Thanks,Father.... but I will decide what I will do even if you say the exact opposite..."

'That was the longest sentence you said to me,Father.But I don't like hearing it'

....

"Eldest sister!"

"Eldest sister!"

Kyi Kyi looked back at the two little girls running towards her in the most unbecoming of a noble young lady should behave.....

"Running around like that... Aren't you afraid of falling ...."

"Ouch!"

"down...."

Helpless,Kyi Kyi could only go and help the two children up...who clinged onto her like some monkey spirits....

"...."

"What's up? I still have to go..."

"Why would you want to go,eldest sister? Do you hate me!?"

Thider said so as Ye Aye gripped both of sisters' hands...

"Big sister..."

Kyi Kyi looked away,

"In fact,I should hate you...but I have no rights to hate you and I can't bare to hate you.... " She muttered.

This kind of expression should not appear on the face of a fourteen years old... Thider tightened her grip.

"Eldest sister,kick me,yell at me,spank me all you want! Don't worry. I won't let him hurt you!You too,Ye Aye .Think of me as a punching bag!"

"What?" Ye Aye and Kyi Kyi stared at their sister ..... 'Have you gone mad!'

All the maids and servents's eyes grew wide at the sudden bomb they had on their heads....

Then,someone went to fetch the master.

"Come on!" Thider nagged at them .

'You,you, are you sane!?'Philia's old voice sounded in her mind ....

'Who asked others to beat them up in such an obvious way! And those girls are cultivaters for Buddha's sake!Even if you are stronger than those two ,your body can't be compare to them! You'll needmore time for recovering!'

'So what!? I can't let a perfectly good elder sister go just like that!'

Then,Thider felt a knock on her head .#Bang#

"Wahhh,you really hit me !"

But she didn't let go...

"I'll hit you too,third sister!"

Ye Aye said and knocked her forehead with her own.

"Ouch!"

Kyi Kyi smiled as she looked at the bruises on their foreheads .

"Stupid kids"

She then,looked up at the sky...

"I really hate myself to tell the truth.

I hate father for marrying many women.I hate mother for being the way she acted to keep me shine..I hate you,Thider for being that person's child. And I hate you ,Ye Aye for being such an idiot... What were you doing in the rain.And Thider.... your mother died because of my mother. My mother died because of you.... no she died because of her own actions....you must hate me.,right?"

"So,we should hate each other?"

Ye Aye said that and looked at her two sisters.

"Are you going to hate me,Third sister?"

"Nah,Hating someone don't suit my tastes.... It's tiring .... "

She said as she looked up to her big sister.

"Hating someone makes you feel suffocated.... you won't have the time to improve yourself ,if you hate someone and look for ways to push them down .... Hating someone would make you forget about those who loves you ..... It's the same when you seek for someone who don't love you ,It's tiring....and it's bad for cultivating!"

"And even if we are only half siblings,we are still one family. And families should stick together...After all ,even strangers can become best friends!"

"Thider,You are still naive.... but you are right! I don't like it either!.. "

Kyi Kyi smiled.... Her smile became more true...

"So,are you still going to that sect?"

"Yes,"

"Why!?" The two looked up at their elder sister.'Aren't we getting along now?'

"I want to get stronger....And perhaps,go and see the world like

that person and become a person that my mother wants me to be..."

Looking at the horror in their eyes, she chuckled.

"No,I won't do some of those things like finding the best man to marry .I will become the best!"

"Right,right!Becoming the best yourself is the best way of living !

Who needs those horrid men!"

'Girl,your father and brothers are behind you....'

'Forget them!'Thider shut Philia up as she hugged her two sisters....

Ah,having sisters is the best... Why did the sisters in that novel fight each other over everything? Must be mad!

...

As for the horrid men behind them,

'How did we provoked these little brats!?Someone come and explain!"
