Chapter 539 (2/2)

”You can't be thinking that Young Master Xiang will abandon us, right?” Han Qianwei asked.

Han Xuewei shook her head, but then she quickly nodded. ”He is a man of his word, so he won't easily renege. I believe he is just trying to evaluate how useful we can be in the future.”

”Exactly. Uncle said that we should work hard and catch up to him as soon as possible. Otherwise, we won't be qualified to be his followers, let alone his women,” said Han Qianwei.

”Big sister, you finally admitted it! I thought you didn't want to be his woman?” Han Xuewei teased.

”So what? Don't tell me you're not thinking the same?” Han Qianwei admitted frankly.

”I, y-yes...” Han Xuewei lowered her head and answered with a blush before running away.

...

In the main hall, Xiang Shaoyun asked Devouring Ghost, ”So?”

”Young master, are you sure you're bringing them to the Dragon Phoenix Academy?” Devouring Ghost asked.

Xiang Shaoyun nodded. ”Yes.”

”If possible, abandon that thought. Their physiques are terrible!” Devouring Ghost sighed.

”Is it that bad? I heard they each have a Yin Frost Physique. Although their versions are flawed, it can't be that bad, right?” Xiang Shaoyun was astonished.

”What do they know? What they have isn't even the Yin Frost Physique. They merely have some innate frost in their body. This tiny talent can at most help them reach the Dragon Ascension Realm. It's almost impossible for them to reach a higher height,” said Devouring Ghost with disdain.

”What? That bad?” Xiang Shaoyun blanked out.

”There's more to it. They won't live past 50,” said Devouring Ghost.

Xiang Shaoyun staggered. He had a.s.sumed that their talents wouldn't be that bad, so this was quite a surprise.

”What's up with that? Don't they look fine right now?” Xiang Shaoyun asked nervously. If they were really that bad, he might really have to give up on them. It wasn't that he looked down on them, but he needed followers with potential instead of followers that would die young. Also, he wouldn't know how to face Han Pojun after they died. In this scenario, bringing them with him would be an arduous and thankless task.

”Their innate frost energy should be something accompanying them since birth. You can also call it fetal frost energy. If they possess a full Yin Frost Physique, they would be fine. Moreover, they would have excellent talent in cultivation. Unfortunately, they each only have a strand of fetal frost energy in them. At birth, they were mere babies that couldn't control the fetal frost energy, resulting in the energy damaging their natural lifespan. They might look fine, but the stronger they become, the stronger a backlash they will suffer from their fetal frost energy, ultimately leading to death,” said Devouring Ghost gravely.
