Chapter 9 - The mark of Her kin

She walked several miles before she couldn't hold her footing and decided to sit leaning against a tree, she looked at Guan Jing and Xian Lu who still couldn't manage to recover their consciousness. She sat there quietly stroking Guan Jings furr "I'm sorry you got involved in this nonsense" Next from her spacial Jade she took two pills one was blue and the other was a pearl looking color, she fed the blue to Guan Jing and the Other to Xian Lu.

She placed a animal fur on the floor and placed her two children on it and she continued walking to a nearby stream. She took off her dress and slipped into the water she started removing the asheses from her skin that were from her dress and Zhao Chen and company's clothing that was burned from her energy.

While washing her self, Guan Jing still in his fox form woke and started searching for his mother, since he couldn't see her he used his sense of smell to find her, walking for a short distance he found her while she had started to clean her hair, Guan Jing saw something that broke his heart, a big slash on his mother back a slash of a sword that went from the back of her neck to her lower back.

He was speechless until Guan Shi Yin called him for the nth time,

"Jing'er are you feeling better, does it hurt anywhere?" By the time Guan Jing snapped out of his thoughts he looked at his mother who now was wearing a simple pink dress,

"..." He looked at her once more " Mother, I... I was just thinking what happened to you, I mean the scar on your back it look... painful"

'So that's why he looked so sad' Guan Shi Yin just walked to him and sat beside him " Well we could consider this is the mark of my kin, that is mine and my brother's"

Guan Jing looked at her with both shock and courisly " Mother how come you didn't mention him before?"

She just looked at him and said " Well that is a story for another time, you wanted to know why I have this mark correct" Guan Jing just nodded

" A long time ago there was nothing just simple and black void, and out of nowhere the first primordial Gods where born, Death, Life, Nature and Time, they in a fit of boredom started to create realms, one by one they were created where the primordial Gods overlooked them. A couple of millennials after, the second generation of primordial gods were born including myself and my brother, most of the second generation most of us where female and only a couple of males, three to be exact, once we had reached maturity they explained to us we needed to look for our own purpose and so we did, soon after we discovered the existence of humans who offered prayers to us and to a great surprise the wishes and hopes of the humans created more gods only that the way they were created earned them only they name of gods and no more. In a fit of rage and jealousy these gods started a revolt trying to get primordial Goddesses to wed them to create more powerful beings, I refused and the God slashed his sword at me, I was trying to protect one of my own and got injured"

She looked to the sky and a couple of tears fell down her cheek leaving Guan Jing Speechless.

"Mother didn't they get punished?, I don't believe the King Gods just left at that" Shi Yin turned to him and said

"Of course they were punished and most of them got destroyed, the ones who didn't take part where left alone"
