Family Meeting (1)
“We are here to call off the marriage pact” The first elder voice sounded shocking both Tian Long and the Long Family
The great elder asked, "Why do you want to call off the marriage?" The representative of the Murong family (first elder) replied, “It's not us who want to call it off, but the young mistress of our family”
The young mistress of the Murong Family was his fiancée. Due to her high talent, she was taken in as a disciple by a strong cultivator. Rumors said that the strong cultivator was a member of a powerful sect and his/her cultivation is high enough to erase Dragon City from history.
“It's the young mistress that want to call off the marriage”
“But why does she want to do that”
“I guess your young master is not worthy of her” First Elder of the Murong Family said with an arrogant expression.
“If she want to call off the marriage, tell her to come in person” Tian Long said interrupting their speech as he left the family hall. Even though she want to call off the marriage and her master is strong , she must come herself because as a man himself he had his own pride.
Entering his quarters, he remembered some things he wanted to do. Heading towards a side of his bed, he checked where he kept the bracelet and took it out. Looking at the bracelet, Tian Long began to smile unknowingly.
Seeing what he was doing, he was shocked as he saw that his predecessor had influenced him but there is nothing he can do but to accept it.
Taking the bracelet, “I hope I meet this little girl that makes my predecessor feeling so strong that it is influencing me” he thought as he smiled and put the bracelet on his hand
This was the package his adoptive father left for his predecessor. Opening it, he saw a black saber lying in it. Taking the saber outside, he dripped his blood on it
“Destroyer Saber” What a domineering name! Tian Long thought as he received information about the saber
The saber has five seals on it which would be unlocked when his cultivation is high enough. While he was thinking about this, the saber disappeared but he was able to feel its presence in his soul consciousness
Since there is nothing to do, I should use this time to cultivate. Thinking of what to do maybe to refine pills or refine his body, he remembered that he hadn't checked the Soul refining method of the Ancestral Beast Chant Method.
Checking the memory fragment that contained it, he began to study the soul technique. According to the soul method, he would have to visualize a strong weapon or beast that he had seen in order to start cultivating his soul.
“Putting a soul fire as the base of his soul, refine your soul as it release soul qi. Then absorb the soul qi and use it as the foundation of your visualized object”.
Tian Long read as he gazed through the instruction. He began to visualize the ancestral beast because they were the strongest expert he had meet and seen face to face.
Starting the process, he put his soul fire at the base of his soul refining the soul. But he didn't last long, it was as if they put a mountain to crush his soul.
The pain was instant. Try as he might, he couldn't escape the pressure of this soul refining technique. He let out a wordless scream, his voice failing him.
His eyes stinged as tears streamed down his face and he fainted. The soul qi began to move as if it was controlled by a force and the shadow of the twelve ancestral beast were formed.
Few hours passed, Tian Long opened his eyes with a frown on his face. “How the hell did they expect me to cultivate this technique. What bullshit is this! Is this a cultivation technique or a torture technique?. He felt like crying when he thought about the pain he passed through.
Even when he died in the training of Don Ming, maybe because it was a training the pain was bearable for him. But this pain was too intense that a whole adult like him was crying.
“Maybe I would leave it for the future” Tian Long thought as he peeked his soul. Looking at his soul, he was shocked as he saw 12 shadows which he was sure that it was the ancestral beast making him curious of what could have happened because he was sure he fainted before he could complete the technique.
The Visualized Ancestral beast shadow stood as they released a lofty and noble aura, he also noticed the destroyer saber in his soul nourished by his soul qi
But there was something intriguing. Both the ancestral beast shadow and the destroyer saber were staying at the edge of his soul. It was as if there was something at the center that instills fear into them.
Checking his soul he saw there was nothing at the center. Giving up when he could not find result from it, he checked the soul refining technique for what he should do next.
Browsing through it, he understood the next step as there was nothing strange to do than to nourish the visualized object to turn them into real existence.
Knowing what to do, his frustrated body calmed down as he began to fall asleep for his soul to heal carefully but was woken up by a footsteps.
Snapping his eyes open, he began to prepare to strike. This was an instinctive reaction of his body. Due to the training of Don Ming, his body instinct has been honed to react to any unknown danger.
Looking at the person, he calmed as a lady voice sounded
“Young master, where are you since all this day? Did Xian'er do anything to offend you” Feng Xian'er said with a downcast expression.
Seeing her expression, he teased her “Oh, is my little maid missing me already”
Hearing his words, her cheek and ear turned red. “What… what do… you mean? She began to stutter.
Confused by her expression,even though he is no longer a virgin, his mind was still virgin-like and still innocent on anything related to relationship
“Why are your cheeks red like this” as he began to check her temperature if she was sick
As he touched her head, her whole face turned red “The young lady of last time said that you should visit her when you arrive”she pouted running out of the quarters.
Watching her leaving, “Did I do anything wrong? Why is she running as if she saw something bad. But he smiled because as she left she looked cute with her red face.
She wasn't a maid to him but a sister to him. Checking his memories of his predecessor in order to know how they meet. He was meet with nothing. There was no memory of how they meet but what he knows is that she was not a maid to him but a sister and also he was sure he had known her since a child.
“It looks like there are still some hidden memory of my predecessor that have not been released”
“It looks like she want to give her decision of her joining of my sect. I hope she joins my sect. Also, I should tell Xian'er so that she can make her decision even though am sure she would join”
Few days passed as the day of the family meeting arrived. The Long family was filled with murmurs during this day because of the family meeting.
“Who do you think will win the match”
“I heard this meeting determines the young master position. It is an opportunity to vie for the position of the young master”
“What about the current young master?”
“Is it that trash Tian Long, don't make me laugh. Do you think he has any chance of winning”
“Yes, that's true. I bet Long Yan would win this match, his sword is unstoppable”
“ I don't agree to this, I bet my goddess Long Bilan would win this match”
“All of you are speaking nonsense. It is Long Ce that would win this match”
All of the Long Family members didn't put hope on Tian Long that he would win this competition but they didn't know they were underestimating him.
Meanwhile Tian Long had prepared himself for this match “I hope there is someone who is able to make me release at least 75% of my strength” as he began to head towards the battle hall.
