Yan Zaizen's feelings were rather complex at the moment. For most cultivators, they should feel ecstatic for being chosen as a disciple of an Origin Core Realm cultivator; however, he didn't feel happy. If anything, he felt more so helpless. Happy that his little life was safe for the moment, sad that he was essentially being kidnapped and threatened, while scared if this dirty old man would see through his fortune, albeit not obtainable by him, and rob him of it. So complex that his nerves were essentially being chopped to pieces with each random chuckle or flashed smile from this dirty old man.
”Where are we going?” He asked.
”Home.” Han Genji replied.
Home? Where was this home?
Another helpless sigh resounded as he recalled that his home was getting further and further away.
Han Genji's brow perked up, as he looked to the east. He directly pressed some of his Qi into Yan Zaizen's body which directly and deliberately made him lose consciousness. Since his life and death were in Han Ganji's hands, Yan Zaizen didn't even feel his consciousness being silenced.
”You talk too much.” Han Ganji muttered while frowning. Han Genji ceased his high-speed flight and maintained his status in mid-air. He silently waited, only moving Yan Zaizen's position from being dragged around by his claw-hand to putting him over his shoulder like a sack of sand. He looked indifferent to the fact that Yan Zaizen was drenched in fresh blood which still dripped towards the ground below.
A while later, a figure radiating a faint trace of fiendish black light appeared from the eastern horizon. The speed of this figure was astonishing, only taking it a few seconds before directly appearing in front of Han Genji.
The figure was revealed to be a fiendishly handsome man looking no less than 25-26 years of age. He wore violet robes, had short black hair, violet pupils, and had a familiar shade of pale. If one looked rather closely, despite the violet pupils, the rest of this man's facial features were slightly reminiscent of Han Genji's. His aura, however, felt more akin to a demon who escaped hell. It was very difficult to feel safe around someone emitting such a demonic aura.
”Elder Brother.” Han Genji's words were sharp and carried a hint of indifference. From this, one could tell their relationship weren't friendly. However, in regards to this tone, it seemed that this older brother - Han Zhenji - didn't take it to heart.
He only replied lightly with, ”Did you obtain it?”
Han Genji and his brother, Han Zhenji, stared at each other for quite some time. The tensions between them gradually started intensifying, and one could definitely see a hidden story between them.
”What do you think?” Han Genji countered. His words caused Han Zhenji's eyes to light up with excitement. Seeing this, Han Genji couldn't help but sneer in contempt. He waved a hand producing a sleek black box. The box was small, small enough to fit only a ring, but it radiated a powerful pulsating aura of the world's essence. A quick toss sent it flying to Han Zhenji, whereby he prompted received it. His eyes looked towards it with traces of elation and, if one looked very closely, anticipation.
The box vanished in a flash, stored properly within his spatial ring. ”Haha, little brother, I must thank you.” It was only after obtaining what he desired that he turned to look at the bloodied figure being hauled by Han Genji like a sack of sand. ”This is?” He inquired.
”My disciple.” Han Genji's tone started growing cold. Sensing this, Han Zhenji inquired nothing else but smiled lightly, radiating an aura of a friendly elder brother with good intentions. ”Advanced Nascent Soul, it seems like my little brother has found quite a talented one this time. Haha, I must give you my congratulations!”
