Chapter 26: Introduction

Wang Gui watched the scene play out and he couldn't help but feel shocked and at the same time proud of his son.

'Young Master? My son is their Young Master?' Wang Gui thought to himself.

'Yu'er, your son has grown' Wang Gui teared up.

HS stood up, bowed towards Wang Tian and then went back to the other guardians' side.

Wang Tian looked at the scene and then said, "Well, umm... This is awkward."

He chuckled and then said, "why don't we all get back to the house and talk there?".

He looked at Senior Dragon for approval.

"Your call, Young Master " Senior Dragon said aloofly.

Wang Tian nodded and then all of them disappeared from the blood forest.

Before leaving, Wang Tian looked at the surroundings.

'After 7 years, I've finally got out of this place.' Wang Tian thought to himself.

The gang arrived at Wang Tian's house just after a few seconds.

Wang Tian looked at the house that he hadn't seen for almost a decade.

He broke into a smile and then said, "Come on Seniors. Please enter our humble abode. Apologies if our house isn't that amazing."

"No it's okay. It's better than living in that tomb" Senior Golem said half-jokingly and chuckled.

Senior Dragon and Lady Second looked at Senior Golem and nodded. Judging from this, they agreed with what their brother said.

Although the Tomb of their master was very luxurious and exquisite, it was still rather different than being here in the real world. Not inside a spatia rift. The atmosphere, the air, the rocks, the surroundings, they were all something that the tomb of their Master couldn't replace.

Wang Tian and company proceeded into the house.

"Please sit down anywhere you like Seniors" Wang Tian said with a smile. Offering them utmost hospitality.

"Okay let us formally introduce ourselves." Wang Tian started the conversation.

He looked at his Father and then said, "Father, this is Lady Second." He pointed at the beautiful lady that was wearing red.

Lady Second smiled in return for pleasantries. She didn't treat someone like Wang Tian's father with respect like he treated Wang Tian. She and Wang Tian weren't even in good terms. How could she even treat his father good? But she still has some manners.

Wang Gui's eyes flashed but he also didn't say anything.

Lady Second felt a chill run down her spine. She broke into cold sweat but didn't say anything. Her pride as the companion of a supreme expert didn't let her bow down to someone else. Even if that someone was more powerful than her.

Wang Tian didn't bother with her but he noticed the exchange that happened between the two. He couldn't help but feel a bit shocked.

'Father can make Lady Second break into cold sweat? I wonder what cultivation realm he is in...' Wang Tian mused to himself.

"Okay next is Senior Golem." He looked at Senior Golem kindly.

Wang Gui's eyes gazed towards the buff guy who was clad in silver that had a bushy moustache.

"Greeting fellow daoist" Senior Golem stood up, cupped his fists and then slightly bowed towards Wang Gui.

Wang Gui wasn't the one to return kindness with rudeness. Thus, he returned the gesture. He stood up, cupped his fists and then bowed to Senior Golem. But the

Senior Golem was much more sensible. In fact, his cultivation realm was much more powerful than Wang Gui. But he nevertheless bowed towards Wang Gui. With his hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation experience, he could tell that something was off about Wang Gui. Something told him that his cultivation was much more than what meets the eye. He has his speculations but he couldn't voice them. This wasn't the right time.

Wang Tian also observed the exchange of Senior Golem and his father. He couldn't help but really feel shocked. He knew that his father was powerful. But he didn't think that he was much more powerful than Senior Golem. The bowing of the two to each other gave Wang Tian the data that he based off his suspicions from.

"Father, the last person is Senior D" Wang Tian said and then looked at his Senior Dragon. He didn't completely say "Dragon" since he knew that the existence of dragons was something that people could not regularly fathom. This was something that Senior Dragon told him. But he also found this information from Tang Jixian's knowledge.

Wang Gui and Senior Dragon looked at each other. Wang Gui hadn't really paid attention to this man earlier. He looked at the man. The man was very aloof and arrogant. Even when doing nothing, these two characteristics were shown.

Senior Dragon also didn't pay much attention to Wang Gui when they first exited the portal. But now that he has been given the opportunity to observe, he couldn't help but feel shocked on the inside. But he didn't show it on his face.

'Young Master's father... Has an extraordinary cultivation. But something is wrong with his body. He seems to be injured...' Senior Dragon thought to himself.

Wang Tian broke the silence and said, "Father, Senior D was the one who guided me in my cultivation all these years."

Wang Gui's eyes flashed with softness but his bearing was still there.

"A member of the Dragon Clan... Interesting" Wang Gui said mysteriously.

Wang Tian, HS, and Lady Second gasped in surprise.

They all thought the same thing.

'How did he know?'

While Senior Golem was slightly shocked as if this

Wang Tian looked at his father in surprise.

"Senior your cultivation base...?" Senior Dragon said.

Senior Dragon got up, cupped his fists and then bowed slightly towards Wang Gui.

Even though he has seen through Wang Gui's cultivation realm, he was still a bit suspicious. When their eyes met, Wang Gui gave off the feeling of a monarch. Senior Dragon felt that although Wang Gui was weaker than his Master, he knew that Wang Gui was still stronger than him at Wang Gui's peak.

They all gasped in surprise again.

What did they hear? Are their ears okay? Did they hear correctly? Senior Dragon called Wang Gui senior???

Lady Second furrowed her brows but said nothing.

"I had an injury before. So I cannot exert power above peak True Immortal Emperor realm." Wang Gui bitterly said.

The others all gasped again, True Immortal Emperor? Wasn't this realm something that normal people don't reach? Master also became a True Immortal Emperor but he was the only one who appeared in his generation. Turns out there was another one...

"Don't call me Senior, friend. With your cultivation of Quasi Dao Realm, you could easily kill me with just a glance if you wanted to. I'd prefer if you all call me uncle or brother. If it doesn't bother you all." Wang Gui continued awkwardly but there was a mixture of bitterness of sorrow behind his tone.

"Brother Wang" All of them said in agreement.

'True Immortal Emperor Realm? Quasi Dao Realm?' Wang Tian thought to himself. 'What are those realms? Immortal? Are immortals true?' Wang Tian thought to himself. He completely forgot that his predecessor was an expert who lived millions of years.

Suddenly, Wang Tian screamed. He felt a sharp pain attacking his mind, as if he was being pricked by millions of needles.

'Shit! I've done it again!' he thought to himself.

All of them cried out,

"Young Master! What's wrong?"

"Boy! What's wrong?"

"Brat! Why are you screaming?"

"Tian'er!"

After a few moments, the pain gradually subsided.

"It's okay. It's just a pain that I usually feel if I overstep my boundaries" Wang Tian said.

Wang Gui looked at Senior Dragon, wanting to ask about what was happening to his son.

Senior Dragon furrowed his brows and said, "This is... Something that is maybe connected to Master's inheritance."

"Young Master's mind can't take in Master's rich knowledge... Maybe his body has found a way to keep all of Master's knowledge judging from the pain. But there's a limit to how much he can access.". Senior Dragon's guess was spot on. Very accurate.

"It's okay everyone" Wang Tian said while calming his mind down.

After a few moments, Wang Tian was fine. Wang Gui wanted to know everything about what had happened. Wang Tian told him what happened 7 years ago, starting from when his father left to do a mission and then to the time when they decided to leave that Spatial Rift.

Wang Gui's eyes shone when he heard what Wang Tian said.

"Tang Jixian... The TANG JIXIAN?" Wang Gui said.

"Void Sovereign... Your master is Void Sovereign..." Wang Gui repeated his words as if he was crazy.

"Do you know master?" Senior Golem said.

"Yes! Who didn't hear of the peerless Void Sovereign who killed millions and tramples upon every single cultivator there is? Who didn't hear of the supreme expert who rocked the whole sky for millions of years?" Wang Gui said.

Apparently, Wang Gui has heard of the tales and deeds of Tang Jixian. He was like his idol.

"Void Sovereign... Void Sovereign..." Wang Tian mumbled to himself. He racked his brains for something related to Void Sovereign.

'Oh i've got it! Void Sovereign is Senior Tang's moniker!'. Wang Tian slapped his forehead, laughed and said, "How could I be so foolish to neglect his moniker?"

They all laughed when they heard what Wang Tian said. Even Lady Second laughed.

They all chatted and told each other a thing or two about themselves. They all felt a little bit closer than before. However, Lady Second was a bit distant. But she still mingled with them since she was infinitely grateful towards their master, Tang Jixian.

"Senior HS, Senior Dragon and Lady Second are going to leave for the time being as they have businesses to attend to. I shan't keep you with me if you don't want to. Tell me, will you also leave like them?" Wang Tian asked HS.

"No way! I don't have any family. Master was my only family. He gave me my life so my life will be forever dedicated to serving him. And that means serving you too. Besides, I'd like to keep Brother Wang company. I mean, where will you have the honor of having a True Immortal Emperor as your brother?" HS said happily.

Wang Gui laughed and then said, "You are most welcome to stay Brother HS."

Wang Tian also said, "great! The more the merrier!".

After a few hours, it was already night time. The guests were already resting. They came to an agreement that they would leave after a few days. Wang Tian was quite sad by this but he did not refute them.

Wang Gui was outside holding a gourd looking at the stars. Wang Tian saw his father and then he walked towards him.

"Father... Tell me about Mother please." Wang Tian said.

Wang Gui drank a mouthful from the gourd, sighed and said.

"I guess you have the right to..."

"Your mother's name is Lan Yu... She was as beautiful as the stars. She shined above all other women. She was quite fearless and brave... But she was nevertheless very kind." Wang Gui said with deep affection.

"I met her when I was travelling outside. She was leading an army to invade another planet. I was passing by that time. She was the general of millions of soldiers." Wang Gui said.

"She lead them to attack but alas, they had underestimated the enemy."

"I was a bit infatuated with your mother when I first saw her. Femme Fatale if you call it."

"Thus, even if she was from the demon race, i rushed in to save her."

"She was battling the leader of that planet back then. That leader was keeping her busy and then suddenly this other expert sneak attacked her."

"She fell from the sky like a kite with its string cut."

"I rushed in. Killed my way through and then caught her before she hit the ground."

"I quickly found a place to hide so that I can treat her injuries.
