Demon core evolution

The next morning, the shocking reality of the death of two maids shocked everyone especially Ling Xan.

She couldn't digest the news correctly.

It wasn't those two that were supposed to die, the persons that were supposed to die were the family or Emerald, her rival in love but instead she woke up this morning to hear the shocking news of her life.

Her head snapped the moment the news reached her ears, her anger increased but she could only vent it out inside her room by destroying everything on sight without considering how she would like in the eyes of anyone that sees her at this moment.

"That fucking bitch and her bastards did not die! damnit, the concealing lethal yin poison was created by the a grandmaster poison master, discovering it is impossible. how the heck did she find out!"

Ling Xan kept saying to herself like a lunatic.

Two times..

It has been two times now that her plans to cause Emerald harm has backfired.

The first time, the Gregor family was having a meeting.

That day Gregor was happy because he won a Noble prize in the annual sword contest that was personally oversaw by the king himself.

That day he was on high spirits and he declared Galen as the heir to his seat.

Ling Xan decided to make Emerald feel inferior and dejected by making up a plan for Gregor to consider taking two heirs.

Gregor then made the two first born of his main women, Ling Xan and Emerald to have a sword duel in front of him.

Her reason was to make Gregor realize he had a waste of a son, Xavier, but contrary to her expectations Xavier was actually very good with the sword and with that he won Gregor's approval to be one of the heirs.

With that, Emerald status in the family rose up and she was finally given her own chamber as Gregor's main concubine.

Ever since that day she always seeks her head and has made minor attempts each of them failing in the most embarrassing ways possible.

This time, it has backfired the most.

.....

Meanwhile, For Liam it was a great feeling that day knowing fully well that one of the threats on his life was gone.

But he still has to stay on guard for the person who sent them might come for his life once again with another vile means.

Now he has to increase his strength to be able to protect himself from future troublemakers.

But things has became complicated because neither Emerald nor Xavier were willing to leave his side.

Even when he was going to use the restroom, the two of them will come with him and stand at the door until he was done with the what he wanted to do.

'If this keeps going on, it'll be very difficult to study martial arts, even using the lottery wheel will be difficult as well. I have to device a good plan.' Liam laid on his bed using his hands as a pillow while he looked unto the ceiling trying to conjure up a good plan.

At the entrance of his room was Emerald and Xavier keeping a very tight watch of him.

Liam was praying fervently for something to happen that will let his family leave him alone.

As though his prayers have been answered, a rushed knock came from the entrance causing Emerald and Xavier and leave to the door.

They were told by the guard that two of them has been summoned by Gregor thus both of them left.

'Finally'

Liam sighed in relief then he summoned out the lottery window, the first two spins were rubbish as well but on the last trial, what he was looking for showed up.

A scroll containing a technique that the system gave a notification that it was compatible with his demon core.

The name of the cultivation technique on the scroll was [Demon core evolution]

The system helped him scan it and translate it to a better and understandable scripture that he understood almost ten minutes after he meditated on it.

'Finally, I can now increase my essence cultivation. I'll pick a good martial arts technique anytime I'm able to leave this place again.'

Before he could do anything else, the door opened.

He could see Emerald with tears falling freely from her eyes while Xavier had a gloomy face.
