Chapter 4: Sacred Family plot
[Glory City]
[Holy Orchid Institute, Library]
In Glory City, because of the danger outside the walls and hope for a better future, the Holy Orchid Institute exists.
It works by welcoming students every year, seeking to cultivate new talents for the protection of the city.
The institution's library is one of the largest in the world, where history has been erased by time.
There is possible to see a young man. He has a defined body and strange clothes, but the most strange thing is the fact that he is reading with a blindfold.
This is Ying Zheng, the only heir of one of Glory City's noble families. And for those who can look into the future and past can see that the identity of youth is even nobler.
Ying Zheng (POV)
That I am talented did not surprise me. I found the workings of soul energy odd.
My soul, due to time in the afterlife, is much stronger than a random soul.
However, I tried not to get attached to that idea. Nie Li, if he went back in time, were his memories brought with his soul? Why wasn't his soul stronger?
Someone only stored his soul energy in the soul realm?
Leaving the thoughts aside, I try to think about my technique.
Thinking one thing, I suddenly catch myself looking at the information that Soul Crystal showed.

My Soul realm was indigo. This means that my speed and aptitude in cultivation are better than general.
The Soul form is the White Tiger of the West, a mythical creature and legendary form. The vantage of a powerful soul form that can work with almost any type of cultivation technique.
This is an advantage that I like. My technique can be more general, but with a focus on metal.
My soul attribute is metal. I believe I know well, in the battlefield was everywhere.
However, how to develop in technique will be the part I need to work on. Metal is more focused on defense, but I don't want to be limited by the attribute, so I will have to try to see how to develop it.
Going back to reading the techniques.

While I was reading, night came, a sign that it was the end of the day.
Little did I know that the months of peace were about to end.
[Sacred Family Manor]
[Patriarch Room]
Sitting on a throne in the center of a nearly empty room was Shen Hong, the patriarch of the Sacred family.
In front of him were two people, Shen Fei and Shen Yue. Both were his sons and his pieces.
Their chess battle was against the current City Lord. A City Lord who didn't even know he was in a game.
He craved power.
When he heard that the heir of the Ying Family started to leave the protection of the City Lord, he began to think of possibilities.
His sister Shen Xiu is a little older, but with her beauty, she could win him over. However, he seems blind, wearing a blindfold all the time.
Then came the second idea, to humiliate him if the only heir of the family was blind and weak. His family's reputation will be practically at an end.
This way the merchants will create distrust, the prices of their business will go down, and the Sacred family will help, of course.
While he believed that he should make his plans carefully, he believed that if he left everything to his children, it could exempt him from any responsibility.
Since ancient times, all have known that elders don't get involved in discussing children.
This served not only him but Ye Zong too.
He just needed to create a situation where his family was attacked by him and ask for a battle to regain honor.
This way, he would be justified in taking action with his plans.
"Shen Fei, you have a mission for the family. You better do it right." Said Shen Hong, his aura emanated, and his voice seem powerful.
"You can trust me, Lord Patriarch," said his son, but seem more like a servant.
"She Yue, you are accompanying your brother, learn from him," Said Shen Hong to his youngest son.
"Yes, Lord Patriarch," answers his son. He gritted his teeth internally. This means that his brother is his favorite.
"RIght, then you will do the following Shen Fei..." said Shen Hong while explaining his suicide plan to his son.
In the Sacred family, the night was long and full of plans.
However, Ying Zheng spent the time training while organizing his plans to get stronger.
He hated his current state.
How can anyone go through the day without knowing that they have at least enough strength to kill one god or another?
While his strength was already near the peak of this city, he knows that in reality, this world was much bigger.
Well, while he's still not sure what to do, he knows one thing: no one can stop him from achieving what he wants.
Remembering one thing, he wonders, "How strong could this Sage Emperor be?"
'I hope he brings me the same thrill as fighting Hades.' he thought with a smirk.
[Unknown space and time]
"What... was that?" A humanoid being with horns and a powerful aura asked himself.
He couldn't understand. His body felt a slight chill.
Although a normal sensation, for someone at his level, this is like his senses indicating something.
He tried divination but found nothing. This made him even more worried.
When you reach his level of cultivation, for millions of years, in control of everything. Almost everything seems ordinary, but the unknown worries him.
Deciding what to do, he asks the demonic beasts to try to find any abnormalities.
Although his search would be fruitless, he would certainly not forget that day.
