Story of a little girl and her encounter.

In a higher world on the mortal plane, there are predominantly two races: Humans and Demons. Both races have been in conflict with each other since the primordial times of that world. It is due to this conflict that Fang Xue, a young girl around 16 years old, finds herself abandoned in a place where the earth is dark, dry, and barren, with 1/3 of her bones broken.

This desolate place is Hell, where sunlight and any being dared not approach, and the moon has shone eternally since primordial times.

'How did it come to this?' Fang Xue thought as she lay with her back to the earth, her snow-white hair fanned out and contrasting against the darkness. Her eyes, also completely white, stared at the moon as she recalled the events that led her to this situation.

Fang Xue was born to a demon and a human—a forbidden union. Her parents, powerful cultivators, met while exploring a dimension left behind by a renowned cultivator from the past. Initially, being from warring species, they had conflicts, but they eventually explored the dimension together and fell in love.

Unexpectedly, Fang Xue, the product of their love, was born—a child of mixed blood, half-demon and half-human. It was unheard of for such a child to exist.

However, when Fang Xue was only 6 years old, some influential members of the human race discovered her true identity. Disgusted by the idea of a human child having demon blood, they formed an alliance with the demons to hunt her down and kill her.

Her parents protected her, fleeing for 10 years, but in the end, they were captured and killed. Fang Xue was then taken and used as a sacrifice to the supposed being that dwelled in the depths of Hell. To ensure her death in Hell, they broke 1/3 of her bones and crippled her cultivation, which was only at the third level of body training.

In a world where the strong rule over the weak, Fang Xue was considered talentless trash for only reaching the third level of body training at the age of 16.

'Haaa... It looks like I will be joining you soon, father, mother,' Fang Xue thought wistfully, remembering her loving parents and the hardships they endured because of her.

'If I were strong, I could change everything,' Fang Xue thought as her vision blurred and her thoughts grew sluggish.

'If there is a next life, I swear I will kill everyone who made my parents suffer,' Fang Xue thought coldly as her consciousness faded, and her heart took its final beat.

------------------------------------

'I didn't die?' Fang Xue thought, calmly surveying her surroundings.

She found herself in a completely white place with a few dark spots resembling stars, tarnishing the purity of the surroundings.

'Is this what the afterlife is like? How boring,' Fang Xue thought as she aimlessly wandered through the endless white expanse for what seemed like hours or perhaps days, until she encountered something different.

In the distance, she saw boundless darkness. Although it appeared terrifying, it exuded a warm and cozy feeling.

Unconsciously, Fang Xue walked toward the darkness, but when she attempted to cross over, a barrier prevented her from doing so.

She persisted for a while, but her efforts proved fruitless.

Finally, when Fang Xue gave up and turned away from the darkness, she heard a loud noise emanating from it.

Turning back, she discovered a white hole within that darkness.

Just as Fang Xue recovered from her shock, something even more incomprehensible happened.

A figure of a woman around 23 years old, with long black hair cascading down to her waist and pitch-black eyes that felt like an abyss, was ejected from that hole.

But that wasn't what shocked Fang Xue the most.

The woman's facial features were identical to hers, only more mature.

-------A few minutes earlier--------

Fang Xue, still in the void and flying toward the supposed Hell, suddenly heard a voice.

'If there is a next life, I swear I will kill everyone who made my parents suffer.'

The voice sounded like Fang Xue's when she was younger, but the coldness and hatred in that voice made Fang Xue tremble for a moment.

While Fang Xue was contemplating the voice she had just heard, a white hole appeared in the void.

Looking into the distance through that hole, Fang Xue saw a completely white place that seemed to beckon her.

Flying toward the hole, Fang Xue felt a suction force pulling at her. Before she could comprehend anything, she was expelled into a new darkness that seemed less terrifying than the previous void.

Emerging from her shock, Fang Xue looked around and noticed the white place that had called to her. However, what she saw surprised her.

In that white place, she saw a girl—her younger self—except her snow-white hair appeared immaculate and pure, and her eyes were completely white, staring at Fang Xue with astonishment.

As they both recovered from their shock, Fang Xue from Earth asked her younger self, 'What is your name?'

'I am Fang Xue,' the young half-demon answered, trying to speak calmly and analyzing the woman in front of her.

'My name is also Fang Xue. Do you know what is happening here?' Fang Xue from Earth inquired, attempting to approach her younger self.

'No, I believe I died, and then I appeared in this completely white place. While wandering, I found this place, and suddenly you were expelled from a white hole,' the young half-demon replied as she, too, approached the older version of herself.

When they stood facing each other with a barrier between them, something occurred that changed both their lives and gave birth to the person who would later be known as the Demon Empress of Chaos.
