Arc 2-chapter 9

As they are chatting, both Ning'er and Tian turned sensing a new presence approaching Ye ziyun.

Seeing Nie lie , Xiao Ninger was surprised he is so bold to actually make a move on Ye ziyun and Ziyun is actually interested in him. She can feel excitement from Ziyun as if she can finally speak , she can also sense that she's displeased by some of his words but she's atleast feeling happy. She realized she must reconcile with her quickly if she's that happy when speaking to someone like Nie lie who is trying to impress her so much from first day. The Ziyun she knows might not be Intrested in talking to boys .

Tian on the other hand , used his ability to listen to thougths when Nie lie asked Ye ziyun to inject her soul force. As expected of Xianxia Protagonist harem member, Ye ziyun is also ridiculously Talented with legendary ice phoenix soul form.

He heard many techniques getting recited in Nie lie's thoughts once he saw the soul form. Honestly , he was surprised by the level of Techniques . As a Quetzalcoatl with extremely high wisdom , which mainly gives him unmatched comprehension abilities. He can sense the Technique's deep concepts . Sensing such piece of profound knowledge , Many Cultivation Techniques began crafted in his mind.

However , this also gave him a glimpse of what Nie lie is truly capable of. Despite being hot-headed , he actually contains so much powerful knowledge that he can't take Nie lie as just a generic Xian xia protagonist. Nie lie can be a threat with his knowledge and craftiness. He got out of thougths when Ning'er spoke.

Ning'er: Hmm , you did the same thing like him when we first met , brother. Just what does seeing a soul crystal for long time determines?

Closing his hearing of thoughts , he replied to Ning'er.

Tian : Oh , that's actually important. You remember the first day , Nie lie told when he'll become bronze rank confidentaly even though he's just a red soul realm .

Ning'er: Yes , the previous me would have laughed at it but considering everything happened to me now , I think it is possible.

Tian : well, that's where his confidence comes from.

Xiao Tian began explaining about how soul realm colour makes no difference in the long run , about soul attributes and forms. How Cultivating Techniques that doesn't match attributes and forms reduce their potential significantly while at the same time Cultivating a Technique that matches makes them Cultivate extremely fastly and having a demon spirit beast matching your soul form only strengthens the Cultivator further.

Ning'er was once again surprised by the revelation but this time , her Cultivation Technique suddenly makes so much sense.

Xiao Ninger: does that mean my Technique....

Xiao Tian: Yes , I also gave you a Technique matching to your soul form and attribute. Your soul form is actually legendary , your soul form is Winged Dragon while you have rare dual attribute of Lightning-wind.

Xiao Ninger: H..How d..does no one knows this!

Xiao Tian : this knowledge is lost in time. I was told the information on soul forms and attributes is common knowledge in ancient era before age of darkness.

Xiao Ninger: By whom?

Xiao Tian : I have a big sister like figure called Lin Meirong. She taught me things she knows. Even the Cultivation of legend rank is not final ,there are even realms higher than legend rank . Infact Legend rank is just beginning of true Cultivation.

Ning'er: I ....I need some break. This is too shocking of a revelation.

Tian : Okay , you go on and Practice. I have to do things at home

Ning'er stopped once she processed what he just said. According to her knowledge, he lives alone. Now , she wants to meet this big sister figure because knowing how impressive her brother is , she won't be surprised if the other one is a rival to her.

Ning'er: Bother , wait .... Take me to her home.

Tain : ...She stays with me ...

Now , this became more important than knowing about upper realms to Ning'er.

Ning'er: Oh, then I want to meet her....

Tian understanding what she's thinking, he took her to his home . Luckily it is in central district near the academy.

The entire Glory city is Divided into 7 districts. First and foremost , the districts at north , west and east borders of city are Outer districts where poor and the guards live. Then comes the Guilds district and Merchant district where all major business happenes. Then ,the inner district where the aristocracy , noble families like Ning'er's and two major families live . Then at the back corner , the City lord's district is there . In the entire middle of it is Central district where important facilities like Alchemy association , Inscription association , physician association and finally Holy orchid Institute exists.

This is actually quite strategic because if a demon horde ever appeared, they cannot reach the main foundation of this city , the central district easily. Even if some major damage happens, the Institutions in central district will take care of next generation and train them since they'll be protected being in the middle of everything.

Getting a home in central district is very expensive but it is totally worth it.

walking home along with Ninger, he still have the rune activated. Once they reached home, Ning'er was amazed by everything. The house looks unique and extremely Beautiful but she liked the design.

The furniture and everything here is made by xiao Tian himself. Due to his Cultivation , he has ridiculously high affinity and talent in crafting . Being a modern person , he didn't liked the ancient style of house . So, he learnt everything about interior designing and furniture creation from here and designed it himself.

Picture of house interior...

To make sure no one enters this place , he updated the runes to make everyone that enters the house without permission, see an illusion of ancient interior and exterior.

{A.N: Runes are OP in any setting. Even Nie lie Reincarnated because of some Goddam scribbles in a book drawn with magic}

Xiao Ninger: Beautiful !

Xiao Tian : thanks , I personally like this design. Anyway, want some refreshments?

Xiao Ninger nodded dumbly , while she sat. He brought something unique again , something she never tasted in life , when asked he said it is chocolate which she liked very much.

Xiao Ninger: ...Brother .....

Xiao Tian : what?

Xiao Ninger: I want to ask you something personal and I think it makes you uncomfortable.

Xiao Tian : It's fine , go ahead.

Xiao Ninger: It's Just..... Actually who are you? I'm not accusing you or anything but everything about you is completely different from the norm. Your mannerisms are unique , you don't crave for attention. Even your home and food you consume are different than norm. They feel so luxurious yet you act as if it is common..

Xiao Ninger: Also, your way of speaking is entirely different than everyone else. No one speaks like you, there's a form of ...carefreeness in your tone. Even a prick like Nie lie speak in formal tone yet ...yours feel different.

Tian was surprised that she's able to point out but then again ,he actually understands where she's coming from. That is one of the reasons he never speaks to anyone or be careful and talking as less as possible because when someone observed him carefully, they can notice the difference easily, he is not eloquent like most of them with words, he doesn't have that unique way of speaking these people have from his perspective .

Not to mention , he is from entirely different culture , he doesn't have any religious beliefs but he grown up as a average guy in U.S. surrounded by normal people. His mindset contains ... certain sense of freedom where as people here are overly respectful towards more powerful people or talented Genius's or someone they acknowledge. Even he heard Nie lie calling Li piao 'good brother' , may be due to his past life experience . it is sincere and close mannerism but for him ,it sounds corny af.

He doesn't want to get used to this kind of culture because he feared he'll loose his own uniqueness , his past self. He is already changed fundamentally due to the influence of this world. His thought process is already okay with killing which is concerning but it's just how this world works. If he didn't take a life and overreact just because he took a life, he'll have fate worse than death in this world.

He decided to tell Ning'er his opinion, he won't tell complete truth but it is not a complete lie either.

Ning'er : You can say , It is my own form of .... uniqueness or character. I just have this unique mindset which will make me cast out, however I don't want to loose it to appeal to others when I am surrounded by people who will not keep weak in their eyes and raise the Strong to pedestal. It is conflicting because weak die and strong lives in this world , even I acknowledge it but ....I still want to stick to my own character and don't want to loose myself trying to impress others. In the long run, I will be like any of them out there so, I am spending this time as 'myself' for now , as long as my destiny allows me to.

That's when , Both of them heard a voice, Tian already sensed her presence but Ning'er on the other hand is a mess seeing such a Divine beauty.

Meirong: That's some Intresting conversation you are having, little brother.
