Wen qi continent, Luo ye country.
This is one of the 200 countries in the Wen qi continent blessed with fertile land, wildlife, aquatic life, and lots of residents. In this world, martial artists and cultivators rule, and the strong can eat the weak so thins related to cultivation were highly sought after. In this country, there were cultivation schools or sects that recruited students every ten years because only children of ten or 8 years were accepted into sects to be trained and become geniuses depending on their talent and spiritual roots.
Somewhere in an alley, a porthole appeared and a figure jumped out. It was Lara still in her tight suit. A sly smile appeared on her lips after the porthole closed.
"Success!" she muttered with excitement. As a princess, she has access to the Hidden library of the kingdom and so she knows that not only her kind exist but that there are other planets with teeming life though the creatures there are weaker than their species. But as an outgoing girl, she felt it would be great to escape from her world and go to any of these planets. After all, none of the so-called masters on the planet is a match for her. And also, her kingdom was very advance in technology with people inventing new things everyday and she wanted fresh air and new people to meet so she refused to bring out her latest invention-a storage robot called Deline.
This android is able to store even a small town's buildings or let us say about 10,000 people or 1000 houses. After years of modification, Deline is able to change shape and become even an ant-sized pin.
Lara threw down the rin on her last finer and a bright light flashed immediately the rin touched the round causing dirt and dust to fly around. Only after the light stopped did the dust and dirt settle down though in another spot.
Now that the light was gone, what came into view was the figure of a human boy dressed in a white robe.
The android Deline went on one knee and bowed his head.
"Deline pays respects to master. Android will serve you to the best of its ability"
Hearin this childlike voice, she laughed.
"It's okay. Stand up now. You really don't need to do this again" said Lara but Deline refused to stand.
"What's wrong with you Deline?"Lara asked in confusion. She'd spent years on Deline so everything should be fine right?
"Master, please, do not be angry with Deline. During the crossover from the previous world, I felt Master's energy dissolving so I took it to complete the remaining upgrade of the system. Now in a 100 years, no other android can defeat me" said Deline.
"WHAT?"Lara exclaimed in shock. She checked her body and noticed that the energy left in her body was so little.
"Wait! Your joking right?"Lara asked trying not to believe this.
"Well, this is the rule. When crossing to another planet, the passenger in the porthole has to let go of some energy and you happen to be a little weak" explained Deline.
"A little weak? I am the 20th strongest person in Sirisia and you say I am a little weak? Why don't you say you stole my energy? Give it back now"Lara yelled.
"Master, Deline is sorry for your loss. To compensate, I will give you a map of this world. Master, though I've upgraded to a high level, there's still a little more to modify so I have to rest for now" said Deline.
"REST? YOU SCUM!"Lara cursed in ire. Good heavens! She'd just been jubilating her escape from home and thought of how no one here was her match. She could have a leisure life and everyone has to lick her boots. But what irony! She has little energy and strength left. She bet even a non-cultivator can easily finish her off.
"Why did you do this?" she asked softly hoping that it was all a hoax.
"It was the emperor's orders" replied Deline.
"Emperor father?"Lara gasped with eyes wide open.
"He knows?" she asked again.
"Yes, Master, he knows of my existence and threatened to destroy me if I don't make you helpless and destitute. He said not everything can you get in life. One must suffer a little before enjoyment comes.'
"Ah, what a good father I have. A very doting father" she said mockingly.
How could he do this to her, his precious baby? He'd never slapped her once but today, he had given her a spank on the head indirectly.
"This is unfair," Lara said as she sank to her knees.
"The emperor said that pride is before a crash. This is his final lesson. Take care master. Don't die quickly. We'll meet at a cultivation sect at a later time" Deline said before turning into a light ball and disappearing.
"AHHHHHHHHH" Lara roared. She hit the ground 7 times causing it to crack.
"How am I supposed to start? I have no money, or domestic skills. I don't even have a place to sleep. Now a newborn is better off than me. Father, I won't forget this lesson" she said as her eyes sparkled with lightning before turning to brown. Her hair had changed color to black and her skin looked tan and rough and she grew three heads shorter. Now she looked like a 10-year-old, having a height of 1.4 meters.
She looked more like a peasant human child now. Argh! she feels so mad. Not only did her dad take away her energy and Deline, but now she looked like a peasant and looked like a child. It really was terrible. She transformed the tight suit that was now evidently too big for her into a brown shirt and loose pants been held together by a black sash.
She sighed as she picked the map and opened it hoping to find something useful but all she saw inside was her father's handwriting.
In it was written the words:
"Silly girl.When you come back make sure to bring daddy a gift."
"Ahhhhhhhhh" Lara roared and tore the paper into pieces.
"Universe, why are you being unfair to me?" she cried.
At this moment some birds were flying past and she caused thunder to strike them.
Yeah! Siryans all have superpowers. Hers happened to be thunder, space, black fire, and superspeed.
Now that she was really angry thunder kept striking out of the blue causing commotion in the city.
Everyone including cultivators was alarmed. Was someone facing heavenly tribulation? It must be some big shot to have invited this kind of thunder.
Others thought the heavens were offended and thus sent thunder as a warning. No one knew that all this thunder was caused by a little girl named Lara.
