"Hah, hah, hah, haaaaaa, urgh. Water, I need water."
"Tch, where is it, I'm sure I had some somewhere."
.
.
.
"Hah! Found it."
"Phew, ok, I'm ok, I'm still here, it's fine, I'm fine."
What was that dream? It seems familiar, but I don't remember that ever happening to me. Was it Murong Xue Meng's memories that triggered it? I wonder where I can try and find out-
"Hey sis, do you think we went too far when we poisoned that bitch? I mean even though she is the trash of our family, she is still our sister, do you think others will see us as being too harsh? Heh."
"Why would you think that? They'll probably praise us for weeding out the insignificant trash in our household. I bet you that mother will definitely reward us!"
"Hah, you're right, sis, hehe..."
"Murong Qing Yue pays respects to Matriarch Mother."
"Murong Qing Yang pays respects to Matriarch Mother."
"You may rise. This one has heard of your plan to 'weed' out the trash in our family. How did it go?"
"Mother, we confirmed that 'the weed' was pulled out yesterday."
"Good, for your hard work, this one will get you an invitation to the Myriad Heaven's sect's banquet in three days. I expect no less than in the top 20. You are dismissed."
"Yes, mother."
.
.
.
"Tsk, Tsk, this family is too vicious, going so far just to kill a 10-year-old girl. This Myriad Heaven's Sect's banquet, I will get an invitation to!"
But how? That was a different matter, rob her sisters? But humiliating them at the banquet seems better. Perhaps... Her father? In Murong Xue Meng's memories her father, he loved Murong Xue Meng's mother very much and treated Murong Xue Meng quite well, even if she was an illegitimate daughter.
.
.

"Father, Meng'er wishes to attend the Myriad Heaven's Sect banquet with her elder sisters. If father could grant this wish, she absolutely won't lose face for the Murong Family!"
"Meng'er, you're only in the 9th layer of the earthly realm! Not even awakened your martial spirits yet! How could one not lose face? Even if father wants you to go, I really can't -" seeing Murong Xue Meng's face, how could he not know? There really wasn't any way of convincing her. But this...?
"Meng'er, do you have some way of awakening your martial spirit? Your mother sealed them right before she died, even though I have no way of forcefully breaking the seal. Could it be that you had a breakthrough?"
"Father is indeed insightful, Meng'er had some comprehensions to this seal and knows how to break it, these three days Meng'er will try to break through to 1st layer harmonisation realm. After three days, if Meng'er doesn't break through, she will give back the invitation to her father."
"If that is so, here"
"Meng'er thanks father for his generosity. Meng'er absolutely won't let you down."
"En, you are dismissed."
Murong Xue Meng cups her fist as a sign of respect and leaves the hall. Her father, Murong Qing Tian, however, was slightly apprehensive.
"Hmm, Meng'er seems to be slightly different today. Perhaps there really will be a miracle. Lu'er, can you see this? Your daughter might really ascend the heavens!"

Of course, Murong Xue Meng had no clue what her father was currently lamenting about; her only focus was getting stronger! Only the strong had a say in this dog-eat-dog world!
As for the seal, it naturally broke when she died; now it's no longer a problem. But this seal..... Why did her mother seal her martial spirit? This seal would not undo until she died, but why? But now wasn't the time for questions; the pressing matter of awakening her martial spirit was still at hand.
