"Scheming Guardian Spirit"

(From here on Sia will be mentioned as Jiang Ying Yue name of the owner of the body.)

Jiang Ying Yue was grumbling in frustration over her broken luck when suddenly an idea flashed passed her mind 'Wait, according to what that baby dumpling said the owner of the 'Brahma World' will have the power to rule the world. Doesn't that mean that as its guardian spirit he must be powerful too? Can he send me back to my world? If he can I don't have to remain stuck in this broken God damn world,right?'

With this thought in her mind Jiang Ying Yue finally saw some hope and turned to look for the little boy only to find him sitting pitifully beside the stream. His tiny back looked so lonely and sad. She felt her heart ache for him.

Jiang Ying Yue walked towards the boy and when she got near him she noticed that the little boy was crying silently. His fair, squishy cheeks were covered in tears and his little nose was red from crying. She was flustered to see him cry so pitifully. She had always been very fond of young kids. So, seeing the little one cry how could she not be bothered? She sat beside the boy and him in her arms. Then wiping his tears with her sleeves she asked him," Baby dumpling, why are you crying? Who bullied you?"

The little boy who hardly stopped crying started to tear up again on hearing her question.

Jiang Ying Yue was at loss.

Now what happened?

She didn't do anything, did she? So, why was he crying again?

She sighed silently in her heart and resigned herself to her fate. She started to coax the boy again to make him stop crying. After coaxing for a long time the boy finally stopped crying. Jiang Ying Yue heaved a long sigh of relief.

She wiped his tears and snots from his tiny face with her robe and tried to ask him again the reason for his crying. She tried to make her voice as gentle as possible fearing that she might startle the boy into tears again," Baby dumpling, why were you crying? Who bullied you? Tell me I'll seek revenge for you."

Abhram looked at her with his round eyes which were swollen from crying so long and puffed his cheeks retorting in a displeased tone," Master my name is Abhram not baby dumpling."

"Alright, alright then Abhram it is. Now tell me baby dumpling who bullied you?" Jiang Ying Yue didn't seem to notice his displeasure at all and kept calling him baby dumpling repeatedly.

Abhram found that it was no use correcting his master so he just accepted it and answered his master's question gloomily," Master it's you. You bullied me."

"Me?" Jiang Ying Yue who was suddenly accused of bullying a little child was dumbstruck.

When did she bully him? They met not long ago how could she bully him in such a short time? Instead she was busy coaxing him. How unfair was this world? First she was dumped into broken world and now she was being accused of bullying a little child. Jiang Ying Yue found this world was very unfair to her.

She looked at the boy in her lap and asked him seriously," How did I bully you?"

The boy looked down and played with his fingers answering her sullenly," Master you said that you don't want this Brahma world doesn't that mean that master doesn't want me as well? I have been living alone all these years that I don't even remember how long it passed?"

"Why were you alone? Didn't you go outside this world? And did you not have any master before me?" Jiang Ying Yue asked him curiously.

The little boy stopped playing with his fingers and answered in a very sad tone," Without a master I can't go outside this space as I am the guardian spirit of this space. So, I was stuck here all alone all these time. And this world has very strict criteria for selecting its master so it was very hard to find a master. Although I had a master before it was very long, long time ago may be ten thousand years ago or may be more than ten thousand years ago. I don't remember exactly."

Jiang Ying Yue gave the boy a deep look and knew that he was playing sympathy card but still Jiang Ying Yue found that he was really very pitiful. Being stuck in a place all alone for thousands of years it was really hard to imagine how miserable one must be feeling. His situation was far worse than her. At least she could move freely outside in the world. After hearing the little boy's story she found herself less pitiful.

Forget it just treat it as a vacation.

She looked at the boy and gave him a pat on the back to comfort him while asking yet another question again," Baby dumpling now that you have me as your master can you go outside again?"

The little boy shook his lowered head and said softly," No, I can't."

Jiang Ying Yue asked confusedly," Why? Didn't you say once you have a master you can go outside this space?"

The little boy finally looked at her and explained her in a serious voice," Master I can only go outside this space once you reach a certain level in your cultivation as my existence and my strength are both connected to my master's strength."

"Oh! So it's like that. In the end it's still me who has to work hard." Jiang Ying Yue sighed when this realization dawned upon her.

It looks like this vacation won't go well.

She looked at the boy who was sitting on her lap comfortably and staring at her with his pleading eyes. She understood what he meant. She found that she was really soft towards this little boy which was a disadvantage for her.

She looked away from those pleading eyes and sighed in exasperation. Before long she heard someone sniffing again.

She was really at loss and started to think how did she change into a culprit from a victim?

She was clearly the victim of fate but here she was consoling and coaxing someone else.

She found it very unfair. Finally she agreed to the little boy's plea and promised to give a try in cultivation.

Only then did the little boy stop his crying and hugged her neck to express his happiness. She also let him hug her as much as he wanted fearing she might trigger him into crying again. So, she didn't notice the sly smile on that little boy's face on finally succeeding in his plot neither did she realize that she long forgotten her purpose for seeking him.

'Hehe, Master, even though I don't know how ended up as my owner, since, you came here you can never escape. Hehe...the world will be ours!'
