Chapter 37 - Not leaving a single person alive (2/2)
Jean: Alright… Where is Yuanba…
He took a step forward, and two shouts immediately stopped him.
Xia Yuanba/Lan Xueruo: Brother-in-Law!!/Junior Brother Jean!!
Jean turned around, and saw Xia Yuanba and Lan Xueruo running towards him with a worried face. Xia Yuanba immediately tackled Jean, who stumbled back in surprise from that giant mass of flesh and bones rushing towards him.
Xia Yuanba: Brother-in-Law!! Are you alright!? I heard from Senior Sister that you were going to the Xiao Sect… And I was really worried!!!!
Jean: Yeah, yeah… I'm alright, don't worry. I already fixed my problems with the Xiao Sect.
Lan Xueruo: Eh? Then…
Jean: Yep, there are only 6 more Major Sects in this city. Xiao Sect is no more, not a single person that was in that sect is alive, except me.
Xia Yuanba and Lan Xueruo gasped in shock at that news, and when they checked Jean better, they noticed some things that weren't there before, like those weirdly-shaped weapons on his back.
Xia Yuanba: Eh?! But the Xiao Sect isn't here anymore! You don't need to run!
Jean: Well, technically there would be some problems when the main sect will send some people to check over, so it's best for me to leave.
Lan Xueruo: Then-
Jean: Yeah, I know, but I won't follow you for now. I want to go to train a bit outside before reaching the Blue Wind Profound Palace. I will come in at least 1 month of time, I hope you can wait for me, alright?
Lan Xueruo: But…
Jean: Hoho? I have encountered you at least 3 times the entire time and you are so worried… It couldn't be-
Lan Xueruo: NO! It's because I am worried about you as your Senior Sister!!
Jean was in a dramatic pose while Lan Xueruo shouted at him in a comical manner. The next moment, Jean started to laugh while Lan Xueruo turned her head away, hiding a pout.
Xia Yuanba cluelessly titled his head before his titanic body reached Jean, who walked behind a wall.
Xia Yuanba: What's the matter, Brother-in-Law?
Jean: Ok, the thing I will say now will shock you a bit… I know the reason that your cultivation is so slow.
Xia Yuanba: Huh? Isn't it because I don't have much potential on it?
Jean: No, you have more than enough for that. The problem is that you have special Profound Veins. The Tyrannical Emperor's Divine Veins.
Xia Yuanba: Tyrannical… Emperor… Divine Veins…?
He was surprised that he possessed something with such an intimidating name, he trusted Jean, so he didn't question it.
Jean: Yeah, your veins are really powerful, so powerful that if you activate them, you can reach the Emperor Profound Realm, or even the Tyrant Profound Realm in a single night!
Xia Yuanba gasped in shock and covered his mouth. Emperor Profound Realm in a single night?! This is something that never happened in the entire story of the Profound Sky Continent!
Xia Yuanba: A-And how do I activate them…?
Jean: This is the problem… If you can't awaken them, you will never break through the True Profound Realm and just cultivating in the Nascent Profound Realm will be 10 times harder than now. But to awaken them… You need ambition.
Xia Yuanba: A-Ambition? But I already have it, I want to be strong…
Jean: No, not at that level… You need an heart of a tyrant, you need to wish for power more than anything else, that ambition alone need to outweigh all other aspirations you have.
Xia Yuanba: That…
Jean: I know, it's a bit hard for someone as gentle as you, but don't worry. One day, you will find that ”Trigger” that will help you to awaken the Tyrannical Emperor's Divine Veins. For now, you just need to continue to live as always, ok?
Xia Yuanba: Yes, thanks to warn me about it, Brother-in-Law.
Jean smiled and patted his big back.
Jean: It's ok, you and my little aunt were the ones to help me when I was ”Crippled”, this is the least I can do, now I need to leave.
Xia Yuanba: Mm, bye Brother-in-Law, and be careful on your journey!
Jean: I will.
After talking with him, he left the New Moon Profound Palace, leaving Xia Yuanba and Lan Xueruo waving at him, he hopped over his Dodge Tomahawk and drove towards the city gates, heading to the Ten-Thousand Beast Mountain Range.
