New home
"What is it clan leader?" the elders were obviously curious of what made the clan leader react like that. Hearing this question the clan leader was filled with rage "Do you elders not pay attention to what is happening! The great elder did just throw the head of Wei Yanduan on the table but you elders did not react!" the elders avoided the clan leader's eyes out of embarrassment.
"In the envelope is a letter that is written by the clan leader of the Wei clan, charging his third elder Wei Yanduan in assassinating our great elder, also he asked Wei Yanduan to come and meet him and three hundred martial artists, five kilometers west of Si city to prepare for an assault after finishing his task".
Si Zhang now understood why master Si was going full speed. What were the elders gonna do now? The elders knew what would have happened if master Si had been killed by Wei Yanduan. They would have never got the information that the Wei clan was preparing an assault from the west, it would have been disastrous.
"what will we do know, clan leader? Do we attack? do we negotiate?" the elders had to know. "let us send a messenger that will head west and send a strong message to the Wei clan by bringing Wei Yanduan's head to those bastards."
Master Si nodded in agreement " I am not always on your side clan leader, but it is a good idea. Seeing that my assassination has failed they will surely need to change their plans. So it will take time before they attack us"
Not losing anymore time, the clan leader send a messenger to the west. The elders retreated to their homes and so did master Si, followed by Si Zhang they made their way East of the domain.
They arrived in front of a big house "Little Zhang from today onwards my home is your home, my food is your food "
Si Zhang was feeling grateful to master Si, after having encountered him in the Evil forest though in a rough manner, Nonetheless he had saved him and now gifted him with a home and food.
The door suddenly opened and a bald middle aged middle aged man hurried and bowed to master Si "master, I have taken good care of the house during your abscense". Master Si was happy to see his butler back.
"thank you butler Hao" looking at the kid beside his master, butler Hao was very happy his master had finally brought someone to help him with the chores.
"Butler Hao why aren't you greeting your young master Si Zhang ?"
hearing his master's words butler Hao could not believe what he heard "young master?!" thought butler Hao.
Butler Hao bowed end greeted Si Zhang.
"butler Hao greets young master" after the trio had greeted each other they entered the house. It was very spacious, it had four rooms, two bathrooms and a large courtyard.
"Butler Hao, show little Zhang to his room and give him the clan's robe. Little Zhang you take this" taking two manuals and a sort of token, he gave them to Si Zhang.
"take this two manuals and read them through, try to understand them. The token that I just gave you will identify you as my disciple. I will take my leave now. I have to notify the clan members about the Wei clan"
Seeing Master Si leave, butler Hao guided Si Zhang to his room. "young master Si , this is your room. The clan's robe is on the bed and if you want to wash, the bathroom is just in front of your bedroom. Having said this butler Hao closed the door and let his young master rest.
Putting the clan's robe aside, and placing his sword against the bed, Si Zhang layed on the bed. Rest that's what he needed the most.
Ding! "Quest completed : successfully arrived in the territory of the Si clan"
"reward : 500 xp and 200 silver coins"
"The quest, I had completely forgotten about it! I even received 1 530 000 xp after killing Wei Yanduan." full of excitement Si Zhang opened the system.

"By killing Wei Yanduan I managed to gain 40 levels, this is incredible. I must upgrade my stats" looking at his stats he noticed that they had upgraded without him having to spend points.
They all had gone up by four. So for every ten levels all stats would go up by one and he would get 10 more available points to spend freely. As for his hp it would go up every level by one.
"system put 40 points in strength, 30 points in stamina, 40 points in speed and 30 points in agility" after having said this a red light engulfed Si Zhang and he felt the change in his body.

"my strenght has visibly increased, even my status has changed. I am now a.... Third rate martial warrior?" he doesn't know how the third rate martial warrior places itself on the power scale. "I will ask Master Si when he comes back".
As for his physical state and internal state he will not upgrade them, at least for now. He fears that his physique would change and it would be suspicious.
Not long after Si Zhang went to sleep.
