💕-------------------------💕
Qin wei was the oldest by 10 minutes and Qin jin followed after. Out of the two of them Qin wei was the most quiet and Qin jin the sweetest with his wide smile and dimples. Both child are cute and have the making of a handsome man in the future.
Both of them love to smile when their mother was alive. They believed that they were the most treasured yellow buns. They have a kind and beautiful mother and a similar big sister who always look out for them.
But that all changed when their Sacred Awakening occurred at the age of 8 and found out that their potential was the lowest and they have a useless water veins.
What followed was their mothers death. Qin wei and Qin jin maybe young but they were smart. They know that their mother would never be able to hug them again.
Their big sister took over the role of a mother for them. Opposite to them their big sister was blessed and talented. She was always with them. And then their father took a new wife. The two of them thought that their new mother would cherish them. Thus the two of them was confused when their big sister rushed them to her lover Qi Yetian asking for help. They still remembered the words their big sis told her lover.
"Help me Yetian! My father and his new wife plan to extract my little brothers vein to nourish their new son! " Their big sis beg and cried in front of her lover in a heart breaking voice.
"It's fine Lou'er I will do something wait for me in the inn you currently are staying and we will bring your brothers out of the city. " Yetian calmly comforted their big sis.
Their big sis waited and when it was finally time for them to get out of the city they were ambushed by their step mothers subordinate who was tipped by none other than Yetian himself. Their big sis heart broken words still echoes in their ears as fresh as the wind.
"Why? Yetian why!? Why did you do this? "
"Isn't it obvious Qin Luo you were always the center of attention and I'm always at you're shadow! Always being compared to you! Which man could endure such humiliation? " Yetian yelled with killing intent overflowing in his eyes.
Their big sis eyes where filled with hurt and sadness and also a hint of contempt. The view of their big sis small and lithe body covering in front of them seemed so fragile at that time.
"I see... " that was the only word their big sis muttered with a soft sigh. Their big sis then faced them and squatted gracefully to give them a big hug.
"Don't worry my little buns this big sis of yours will protect you." Her eyes at that time radiated light of resolved and conviction. Though the words were uttered softly it was still heard by other cultivators.
"Hahaha! Qin Luo don't flatter yourself how could I let you escape. You will die here and I will gift that two trash to your step mother. " Yetian said with utter hostility that his handsome face twisted with malice.
Their big sis didn't pay any heed to what her former lover was blabbering about. She smiled at them and stood up. At that time her small back was like a big mountain that could shield them from any troublesome winds that may blow towards them.
"I will save you."
Those were the words she uttered before she was wrapped in a golden radiance. The golden light was warm and felt holy at first before it burst out with the power of dominance that demanded respect. What happened next was a flash golden fire. What then appeared before them was a golden dragon. Its head full with golden mane that reaches its tail. It had golden white antlers on its head and two long whiskers at each side of its horse like face. Its serpentine body was covered with resplendent golden scales and it had 5 claws as sharp as a hawk.
The same time the golden dragon appeared the time seemed to stop as all the gods felt stifled with its presence. They couldn't move and could only helplessly watched as the dragon brought the two boys away.
Qin wei and Qin jin at that time realised that they only have their big sister now as a family. They felt devastated when they found out that their big sis sacrificed her vitality to invoke the dragon gods forbidden magic to let them escape.
When they finally arrived at the edge of the divine realm away from the mainland of the Floating Cloud Continent and into its mountainous regions they found out that their sister is dying as her life force seemed to be sapped away day by day.
That's why they couldn't help being surprised to find their big sister roasting a rabbit meat outside their thatched house when just a day ago her life force was like a candle in front of a breeze flickering between life and death.
They run to hug their sister as teardrops flowed from their big and innocent eyes and into their soft skin. They swore to their selves that they would protect their last family by any means necessary even if they have to fight their destinies.
