Chapter 146 - Knowing [2] (2/2)

After recollecting herself, she sat down in a lotus position to meditate. As she closed her eyes, she wondered if she could truly cultivate. It would be beyond comprehension in the realm. She had woken up quite early from the induced sleep, hence, she decided to meditate a bit. Moments later, she cleaned herself and put on the new armoured robe that her parents had bought for her for this glorious night. After preparing herself, she went looking for her parents and found them in the living chamber, deep in discussion. They were pretending as if they hadn't been watching and expecting her. With their side to the entrance, they appeared to be lost in their conversation.

”Good morning, father, mother.”

”Oh, Chang Chang! Good morning to you too.”

Her parents replied in surprised pretence as they turned their attention to her.

”We didn't see you come in. A bit early for you today, don't you think? ”

”And look at you, Twin essence. All dressed up and looking lovely this morning.”

”Is there any occasion for you today?”

”Huh?”

Chang Chang exclaimed in astonishment. What is going on? Could they have forgotten about her summoning rite this morning?

”Arrgh.”

Screeched Chang Chang before smiling while shaking her head. She might be a young deity, but she knew the extent of  her parent's love for her. She knew they were even more concerned about the rite than her.

”Thank you, father, mother.”

”It's the least we could do, Twin essence.”

With faces full of smiles, they proceeded to check the prepared items together. Everything in order, it was time to head towards the valley of a tbousand death for the rite of paths. After checking the protective arrays of his small manor, lord Chang Liu removed a seal from his dimensional space and threw it into the air. The Valley's portal seal. The seal that was delivered to them after their confirmation of their daughter's participation.

Immediately after its activation, a portal opened. On the other side, they could see the valley in its glory. Feeling a little apprehensive, Chang Chan glanced at her parents who nodded their heads in assured confirmation.

”It's all good.”
