Chapter 287 - Damians Attention (2/2)
However, Yan Zaizen didn't find the pride in Pinaka's tone something to be excited about. The True Spirit Path was a deeply flawed Path. It had to rely on formations and other existences to grow, limiting it to only being able to create artificial intelligence and nothing more. Yan Zaizen realized that, by itself, it could never reach the heavens in terms of strength.
It was a little depressing.
”Master!” A soft voice echoed. It belonged to Amy.
”Yes?” Yan Zaizen had produced a talisman for communication, even through chaotic space, allowing them to communicate with him if they needed it.
”Disciple requires your assistance.” The voice wasn't urgent. In truth, it was rather calm, but Yan Zaizen had long since gotten used to Amy's personality. As such, he knew it was an urgent matter.
About five years ago, Yan Zaizen had allowed Damian and Amy to craft their own path in the Graceful Sword Realm after his seven years of constant support. In truth, his own understanding of the elements, including wood, had likely grown greater than theirs. Fortunately, this made giving them instructions easier.
The only dissatisfaction he had was towards the Imperial Law of Samsara. Due to his sudden instruction and need to delve into formations, he hadn't the time to develop his conceptual law.
Keeping the book, he stepped outwards and vanished.
As if he materialized from nothing, he appeared beside Amy. She was dressed in her amber-gold attire, proudly displaying his personal emblem to the world. In twelve years, her cultivation had skyrocketed to the peak-Qi Unification Realm. With Yan Zaizen's top tier environments, cultivation methods, and resources, it would be hard for her cultivation not to progress.
”Master,” Amy calmly bowed and gave greetings. Yan Zaizen warmly smiled, turning his eyes towards the situation.
They were located in a courtyard. This courtyard wasn't anything too fancy, but it had a unique atmosphere that seemed good for cultivation. There was a clear pond with swimming fishes, an evenly flat ground with both a dirt clearing and lush grass, and paths that led to a cultivation room and resting room. However, there was no life signatures for quite a distance.
”Master, this is the clan grounds of the Aquas Clan, a Mortal Faction with an Origin Core Matriarch.” Amy explained, ”I was invited here to help ease an issue with Damian.”
”Oh?” Yan Zaizen was surprised that there was an issue with Damian. The boy was definitely interesting, but he was rather straightforward. The only issue was likely his one-track mind when he finds something he's passionate about, such as providing for his father or gardening. When he decides on a path, he treks it to the best of his ability with no regrets.
Amy could tell that Yan Zaizen was intrigued but wasn't deeply invested, so she continued to explain, ”The Aquas Clan's young miss had met Damian while he was undergoing training. While they met, they had a disagreement. Initially, it didn't escalate, but the young miss intended to capture and punish Damian for his insolence, using the entire clan's resources to hunt for him.”
As he heard more of the situation, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This world had a deeply ingrained concept of gender superiority, and such, it wasn't uncommon for someone like Damian, who was shredding this belief, to come into conflict with others.
”Damian didn't take too kindly to this and started to make it his mission to kill everyone in the clan…” As she reached here, Yan Zaizen realized why she was here. Yan Zaizen wasn't against his disciples killing others. He didn't even have any guidelines towards how they conduct themselves. It was a simple mantra he taught: ”Act as you wish, but do so with your life in mind.”
If they wish to be a villain, do so! Wish to become a hero of legend, do so!
Regardless, be sure to understand that your life can be reaped as a consequence.
Nevertheless, Yan Zaizen would avenge them, but he would not directly save them unless it was a situation that far, far exceeded their capabilities. Such as a heavenly cultivator coming to kill Amy, who was at the Qi Unification Realm.
”You've called me because of that?” Yan Zaizen furrowed his brows in a little displeasure. He expected it to be more urgent, but he didn't care for such a little situation. Even if Damian wasn't in the right here, he wouldn't interfere with his development or actions easily.
”...Master, the issue is that...Damian ascended to the Origin Core Realm and already slaughtered the entire clan. Now, he's gotten the attention of the Realmlord's Palace and Insurgency.”
”Oh?!” This took him back a little. Damian was only twenty-three years old this day. A twenty-three-year-old Origin Core Realm cultivator? This was mind-boggling. However, upon thinking about it a little, Yan Zaizen felt it was only right. All the top-tier resources he left them, the requirements for the Origin Core Realm, and how it wasn't based on not just talent but luck in discovering your origin source.
”It would be more accurate to say...the Realmlord's Palace and Insurgency has gotten 'his' attention.” Amy clarified, her tone awkward and helpless.
”I see, haha.” Yan Zaizen couldn't help but laugh. Amy didn't call him because of the Aquas Clan's demise, but because she was worried that Damian would directly impact her own mission due to his single-mindedness. He didn't even need to understand the situation further to understand it all. However, the situation remained the same; he would not directly interfere with his disciple's decisions or choices.
”I'll inform him not to kill your brother, but all his other choices are his own, so is yours.” Leaving these words, he couldn't help but feel slightly proud of Damian's talent and actions. He returned to his palace, his eyes effusing deep anticipation. Hearing about his disciple's success, he felt a sensation within his heart he had never felt before!
”Damian, I have quite a bit of hope for you. Don't let down master!”
