Chapter 23: Rite Of Judgement [1] (1/2)

Zhang Xiu Ying was on the training ground early than usual one morning, practicing the Beasts Inferno technique with her parents. Since they all used the same fire technique, albeit with different beast manifestations, it was much easier for them to practice together. Except for Ju Feng, who was not fire affiliated, but still watched their training. His family had been engaging in mock combats for two years now.

Already, it was two years ago since they last had a visit from the titan lord. Lord Primus had told Zhang Xiu Ying during his last visit about her true nature. Zhang Xiu Ying already knew she was an Asura. She was born a demigod, and had already reached the full demigod stage. And she had also formed her nascent soul. But she wasn't expecting what the titan lord had told her. She recalled their conversation, clearly.

”Xiu Ying, it's true we met not long ago. However, I see you as someone I've known for ages. That's why I've been taking you as a long lost relative. If you don't mind being one, of course.”

”Really?”

Zhang Xiu Ying asked as she looked at the titan lord, who was radiating honesty and trustworthiness, in disbelief. Lord Primus, who had saved their lives, wanted to be her relative? Of course, she would agree. He deserved their trust in him.

”Well, I don't have many relative in the first place. So, it's welcomed by me and besides, who will turn down being a relative of a titan lord. Totally good by me.”

”Alright, that's settled then. Now, let me ask you this. What do you know about yourself?”

”Myself? What about myself, lord Primus?”

”Just call me uncle Primus. Alright?”

Primus gently swivelled her off, displaying an easy smile on his face.

”Yes, Uncle Primus.”

”Very well then. Tell me, Xiu Ying. What do you know about yourself becoming a demigod? Anything you can tell me?”

”Well, I know I was born a demigod is a stage one reach after forming a nascent soul, before ascension. Isn't it, uncle Primus? And I formed my nascent soul some ten years ago.”

”Indeed. And I'm very proud of you for forming your nascent soul. Tell me this, your divine powers, did they manifest before you became a demigod?”

”Yes. When I was in evanesce core stage. Why?”

”Please, allow me to do a little confirmation first.”

”What confirmation, uncle Primus?”
