Before the family was a child wearing some strange cloths that were surely from an unknown advanced era, with rainbow colored long hair on the head it made one wonder what was wrong with her parents' head to make her look like that.
The little girl? Then began to talk with puffed chest:
"I am your system spirit Xiao Ling'er, you were chosen to be the hosts of the Great Clan Family System…!"
"Get off from the table first, it's extremely impolite." Such a remark from Mrs Li interrupted the speech.
Xiao Ling'er stopped immediately and showed a bit more timidity as she descended from the table before continuing with a smaller voice:
"As I said you were chosen to be the hosts of the Great Clan Family System, your compatibility with it was the highest reaching 99.99 percent, from now on you will work together to make your clan the strongest in the universe among all the myriads species!" At the end of the phrase she got back a bit more vigor.
The Li family was feeling a bit stunned by her word but with all the strange things that happened to them today some random proclamation to become the strongest in the universe didn't create that much shock.
Father Li then took the initiative to ask:
"And what about our life in the past world? This is another world right?"
Xiao Ling'er answered him:
"You are right. This is another world but to be more precise, it is an alternate one, where your family didn't exist before, in exchange now, your presence in the older world was just erased so you don't have to worry about your absence there."
"We won't be able to go back then?"
The whole family was showing a rather mixed reaction to her words.
Li Cheng was relieved since that mean he didn't just let down his workers, but he was feeling a bit sad at leaving the work of his life behind.
Li Kun him was showing a rather happy expression, he was muttering about how any trace of him being dumped was all gone, goodbye past world, welcome new one.
Li Yun and Li Ya didn't show much reaction, they didn't have any particularly heavy attachment to the old world.
The one that showed the greatest reaction was actually Li Ying, she looked a bit absentminded followed by a bitter smile but she managed to hid it quickly since the other were showing a worried expression looking at her. Seeing that she wasn't depressed for long her three children didn't continue the heavy expression since that would only make her unhappy, Li Cheng was the only who gave a small sigh looking at his wife.
Xiao Ling'er wasn't good at reading the mood as she continued:
"As for your identity in this world, it was decided by analyzing your feeling and preferences, you can read it on your personal panel."
A blue transparent screen appeared before each of them, picking the attention of the family, they began to read what was written on it.
Li Yun was the most anticipating since he knew that it was the time to see wether he was a material for OPness or not, looking at the screen he saw :
[STATUS]

He was speechless looking at this, but he should be material for OPness right? He absolutely didn't dream about becoming one of those stupid young master that looked down on the whole world, absolutely not.
It was at this time that Li Kun hit the table hardly, startling everyone. He said sombrely:
"What do you mean your fated star was not coming yet. Then why am I engaged already? There is no reason for that right!"
[STATUS]

Was the tragedy about to repeat itself?He didn't have such a strange fetish right!
The other stopped bothering with him after the startle, they were more concerned about their own STATUS.
Li Ya was feeling quite good about what was written inside, what was written was a good fitting for her.
[STATUS]

In between, you are not in a relationship yet and have to support the courting of many suitors a.k.a annoying young masters. Advice: Toads always want to eat a swan's meat. Sigh~ beauty beget troubles, don't you think so?]
Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
She was just a bit worried about the suitors but it shouldn't be a huge problem no?
While the three siblings were acting out complaining about this and that, the parents who had seen the world weren't as excited, look at mother Li she didn't even frown a single time, if there was something that attracted her attention it was the wording.
[STATUS]
Name: Li Ying ( Mother)
Race: Human
Age:[Omitted] Gender: female
Cultivation: Ninth rank Soul Diffraction
Cultivation mantra: Nine Yin Boundless Lotus
Occupation: Matriarch of the Li clan [Respectable type: your esteemed self is a respectable figure admired by many in the whole continent, your beauty is like the sweet wind full of cheeryblossom in the spring, full of grace yet with a great humility, you try to lead your children and husband to the right path but respect their choice nevertheless. Advice: you are the only redeeming of this clan, please guide them well like you had always done.]
What was going on with this long description? And was she the only one feeling that something is strange or does it seems so respectful for some reason. A peculiar wording indeed…..
Father Li didn't show any dissatisfaction, but he seemed to be hesitating to say something, looking at the words described inside, he couldn't help to say:
"This… I don't think it's very suitable right?"
Xiao Ling'er gave him an explanation:
"Father Li didn't have that much condition to ask for, so your character was used to stitch the whole setting with the other, but don't worry your inner feeling have been taken into account."
[STATUS]
Name: Li Cheng (Father)
Race: Human
Age: 53 Gender: male
Cultivation: Third rank Deity Transformation
Cultivation mantra: Nine Yang Tyrant GoldenCrow
Occupation: Patriarch of the Li clan [Protective type: Tyrant Saber God Li Cheng! That's the surname you got through the fierce way you made a name for yourself in the cultivation world to become one the ten experts in the Spiritual great realm, the other nine are actually very jealous of your great temperament (the head). You reign as an absolute ruler of one of the Thirteen regions of the continent, and lead the Li Corporation to be a behemoth. P.s.: you are a cultivation mania who doesn't care about managing and are overprotective of your own, but that lead to drivers problem in the organisation. Advice: It's good to be fierce, but it wouldn't do bad if you learn some management skill.]
So that's what you mean by my 'inner feeling', sigh there was nothing to complain about though…..
Everyone seemed to come to terms with the situation so Xiao Ling'er took her courage and began the in-depth explanation:
"This world as you may have remarked is a world of mysterious power and fantastic background, believe me or not but this continent of thirteen region was the origin place of the first Immortal, he came from the human race named 'Yang Shu', he is the ……. Blah blah blah…"
The system spirit was talking passionately about the background of this world but no one was really interested in her blabber.
Li Yun suddenly asked his mother:
"There is something that bother me, where is Hong Xi?"
The other also looked at her being intrigued by the question.
Mother Li gave him a sigh before saying:
"It is asleep on the sofa in the living, I didn't bother it since it is already so old."
Li Ya was the most attached to the cat so she went to the living to look at it, the other waited for a moment before she came back holding the same fat cat, making them all sigh in relief.
Before it was a blue screen but they didn't bother Hong Xi since it seemed to be still asleep.
[STATUS]
Name: Hong Xi (pet)
Race: Cat( with divine blood)
Age: 9 Gender: male
Cultivation: Seventh rank Soul Diffraction
Cultivation mantra: ????
Occupation: Mascot of the Li clan [Hidden power type: as the descendant of one of the Divine Spirit, you possess wisdom and power beyond common sense, but you prefer keeping a low profile not talking and pretending to be a simple fat cat. Like grilled fish and sleeping under the sunshine. Advice: Well, your job is to sleep all day around, it's great to keep a low profile no.]
They then began to talk among themselves, about their future plan to deal with the current situation.
Like how Li Cheng wasn't confident in himself to lead such a strong organisation, he may have lead his company for several decades but that was incomparable to be the ruler of a whole region even though he didn't even know how big that was.
Li Kun was still concerned about the imminent rupture with his future fiancee he hadn't even seen yet, asking for advice to his mother in how to deal with the situation.
Li Ya and Li Yun were more interested about the Great Dao Academy of Prodigies talking about how great would their school life be.
".....this region is the in the southern….. sniff...sniff…"
It was at this time that they remarked that Xiao Ling'er was continuing explaining as best as she could while holding some tears. She was doing her best….. so why were these people so mean…. Boohoohoo.
Seeing her like this, they stoped talking among themselves, Li Ya put Hong Xi on the chair before coming to her side patting her on the head consoling her.
"Sorry for this, you can continue, we are listening to you now." Said mother Li while showing an apologetic smile, the three men also echoed her saying:
"Right right, we are listening to you."
Xiao Ling'er swept the tears on her face before continuing:
"This...This region is in the southern side of the continent, it is called the Blue River region because the longest river in the continent is going into the sea by traversing this part of the continent. What is produced in the region are a great variety of spiritual herbs, so it is known as the holy land for alchemists. It had been under the rule of the Li corporation since only ten years, since the advancement of the Li patriarch to the First realm of the Spiritual great realm the Deity Transformation. From then on, it is trying to stabilize the situation but the organisation is facing a huge threat as the leader is very rash in his actions and try to lead it with momentum alone."
She stoped here for now, while the member of the family were giving some encouragement to the so called leader who was feeling a bit exhausted hearing that. To change the atmosphere Li Kun then asked something he was more concerned about:
"What about the Sword Saint, who is he? And how did I get engaged to his daughter?"
"The Sword Saint is one of the ten strongest cultivator in the continent, he is far older than your father but his daughter is in the same age range as you, he only got her at an advanced age so he treasure her greatly, you seemed like a fine candidate for marriage so he accepted when your father asked for an engagement five years ago."
"Father! What did you do?"
"It's not my fault! This is just a setting, you know I wouldn't interfere in your romantic life, I am not your mother…."
'Crack'
The calm came back as everyone began to look at Xiao Ling'er to continue. Li Yun began to ask his question:
"I understand that it is a world of cultivation, so what is the world outside like? From the view we got from the windows, it does look like a paradise but it seems to be different from what you said."
The system spirit got back a bit of confidence as she answered proudly:
"Are you talking about the background outside? It's all part of the System space so you don't have to be worried about it, you can get to the outside word from any door in the house, and you can get back here with a single thought."
"You mean all of this space this house included is a part of the System space?"
The family was indeed impressed by her words. As they asked more questions, the time went by and it was now decided that they should go in the outside world to begin their new life, they could always visit the system space at a later date.
They went through the front door to go and waved goodbye to Xiao Ling'er who still had something to do and couldn't follow them.
Seeing that the family members were all gone, Xiao Ling'er sighed in relief, she then turned on herself three times before saying with pride:
"Everything went according the plan, as expected of the Great System Spirit Xiao Ling'er!"
She then saw mother Li looking at her with an apologetic smile before saying:
"Sorry, I forgot something."
Before leaving through the door in a hurry.
The system spirit was left here with a red face.
