In another place away from the hustle and bustle of the city of Sun Jan, a desperate howler echoed in the air then followed by a heavy pound, in the middle of the room a woman with disheveled hair curled up on the cold floor clenching into a small wooden swallow statue 

"Why didn't it work?" she whimpered, sweat covering her forehead as panic enveloped her like a thick blanket. 

​​

"Why can I cultivate, why…. what's wrong with my body?" she raised her trembling hand in front of her chest muttering to herself.

A knock came from the door, then a worried voice came from behind the door "Master Zi, you are fine, are you hurt?" 

"SCRAM!" she roar.

Immediately the voice behimd the door quiet down.

The woman in the room was Zi Quan Mei, after the fight in Chang Yi's bamboo forest she was badly injured, at first, she thought it was an ordinary wound, she was not worried because this was not the first time she had been injured after the long battle but then something strange happened after her cultivation dropped due to Zhao Li Xin's fierce blow, she found out she couldn't raise her cultivation level anymore, is like she was hit in bottleneck situation, her cultivation was stucked.

He looked down at the small wooden statue in his hand, it was a small totem no bigger than her palm, she had accidentally found it when she was thirteen years old, this is a secret she kept without anyone knowing, not even her own parents. The truth was that Zi Quan Mei was born with ordinary talent, she was only slightly above average, she didn't have any other skills such as weaponry, array master, or anything, so her ability is quite mediocre.

Besides her extraordinary beauty, Zi Quan Mei was an ordinary girl until one day she found a small wooden totem in a shallow river, she thought it was trash, but before she could throw it away she was summoned home by her nanny, she quickly put the totem away inside her sleeve and ran back home.

One night when she cultivated she was suddenly overwhelmed by the enormous power and not long after she got his unexpected breakthrough, Zi Quan Mei was so happy she felt so proud and her parents praised her for the first time, her father then took him to the cultivation room to help her cultivated further, unfortunately, after a few weeks she didn't make the same progress, many people thought her previous breakthrough was a fluke.

Zi Quan Mei then returned to her bedroom feeling sad and disappointed, nonetheless, she continues to cultivate, suddenly the same thing happened again, she had another breakthrough, but this time Zi Quan Mei didn't immediately tell her parents, she realized there's something inside her room which could help her to speed up his cultivation, she searched her entire room all night, she begins to wonder what had changed… then she remembered about the small wooden statue she had found in the river.

She inspected the statue carefully, but she didn't feel anything out of ordinary. Zi Quan Mei thought the sculpture might be a relic totem so she holds the totem in her hands and begins to cultivate, just like she expected the immense power immerged from the totem then slowly absorbed by her body then increased amount of Qi in her body and the next thing happen she got another breakthrough.

Since then she was known as the peerless genius in the Zi clan but no one knew it all because of the little totem help he had.

However, the precious totem suddenly didn't work anymore, Zi Quan Mei had been cultivated for a week but nothing has happened, she can't feel the energy came from the totem as if the totem was dead. Zi Quan mei was panic, she didn't know what to do. if she can return her strength people would questioning her, her enemy in the sect would force her to abdicate her title as the leader, when that happened, how could she survived.

Zi Quan Mei took the lotus position on the floor, she closed her eyes and started cultivating again, she refused to give up, this was not the end of her life. She clenched the totem in her right hand trying to feel any reaction from the totem and he managed there was enormous energy coming from the totem, her heart surged with excitement but before she could stop cheering, the energy from the totem suddenly went wild, it hit her like the waves raging in the ocean.

It felt like she was being pulled into the vortex of her breath getting faster and faster and her heart was beating erratically, she wanted to scream but the voice caught in her throat, Zi Quan Mei's body shook violently, she tried to throw the totem but the totem seemed to stick to her hand, only after she was cough fresh blood out of her mouth it means she had injured her internal organs the attacks finally stopped.

Zi Quan Mei throws the totem to the corner of the room in fright then she drags herself to another corner of the room, Zi Quan Mei cowers with a trembled body. Her eyes filled with fear and shock, she doesn't understand what had happened, why the totem seems….against her?

"Why are you sitting here alone, Lory?"

"Father?"

Marcus glance at the silver staff on Lory's hands "I heard, you found trinity staff?" he didn't sound surprised.

"Girsha help me though" Lory responded with a casual shrug.

Marcus then takes a seat on the stone bench next to Lory "Can I see it?" he asked.

Lory hands the staff that a lot taller than her but surprisingly it very light like a feather. On contrary Marcus felt the staff is quite heavy, it seems the staff only let him touch it because it could felt the blood connection between him and Lory "It's heavy…"

Lory tilted her head in confused "No is not, it's very light!" 

Marcus smile "Because it chooses you, so in the future only you who can wield Trunitty staff" he returns the staff back to Lory.

Lory received the staff still with a baffled look, "Why is it choose me, father?" Lory caresses the glistening silver staff on her hands, it feel very sturdy and cold at the same time.

Other people would be overjoyed if they were chosen by the Godly weapon like Trinity staff but his thirteen-year-old daughters didn't blind by greed she wonders what purposed for the powerful weapon chose her, Marcus smile deepen.

"Why are you worry about it?" he teased.

Lory pursed her lips, her innocent eyes flickered as she stares at her father, "Because you always say everything happens for a reason and everything has a price, so I wonder what the reason is and how much I have to pay for this ..." Lory felt uncomfortable with her sudden blessing.

Marcus chuckled while stroking the little girl's head "How the Godly weapon chose their master or why? I'm afraid I didn't have the answer for you" 

"Is it because I'm Lucient heir?" Lory ask.

"The legend said the previous owner is not Lucient heir" Marcus reply.

"Is it because I'm strong?" Lory still persists to get the answer.

"But, there are other people who are stronger than you isn't it?"  Marcus raised his eyebrows.

Lory's expression fell, even though she is just a little girl who doesn't know much about life but she is smart enough to understand that when good things happen to Lucient it is not like a free gift, there must be a reason and clear purpose, this is not based by her own assumptions, this is had been proof by hundreds of years of Lucient's history, and it made her feel nervous.

Marcus saw her apprehensive look, he lifts her chin gently with his finger "You scared?" 

Lory didn't answer right away, she pursed her lips and nod weakly "Just a bit…"

"That's good…that mean you aware," said Marcus "You know Lory, from seven God sword only five chosen me while the other two were not, and wit your grandfather, only three god's sword chosen him, no one knows why….some said it feel same like the affinity you feel with some weapon, some said it is a fate….. "

Suddenly Lory cuts in, "What do you feel when you see God's sword, father?"

Marcus pondered for a moment then a warm smile appeared on his face "Like meeting with a long lost friend"

The answer made Lory's face glow, she lifted her head excitedly, "I also feel the same way, like…. it's been waiting for me for a long time!" 

"Yeah, that's exactly how it feels…" Marcus laughs, but a moment later his expression gradually turned serious. "That's why Lory, Godly weapons can only be used by their rightful owners, there are serious consequences for anyone who forces them to take something that doesn't belong to them. you, remember this! " 

"Dad, I'm not going to steal other people's divine weapons, I'm not a thief, you know!" Lory puffed her cheeks angrily, could her father have little faith in her, "Besides I already have Trinity, I wouldn't be that stupid!" she grumbled. 

"I know – I know…" Marcus faintly smiles, he patted Lory's head without saying anything further.
