561 Great Shang Shi family (1/2)
The Central Dynasty, within the Imperial Capital, a courtyard ten thousand feet from the Imperial Palace...
A scholarly, middle-aged man was looking at the jade letter in his hand in deep thought.
On it were words and some information being drawn into his soul.
\”Gantian, Zong Shou, Blood Cloud Cavalry? Who knew that this world would give rise to such a strong expert. Is it a blessing or a curse for my Shi family…\”
Frowning slightly, the brow of the middle aged man was filled with worry. He stood up as he stepped through the garden, entering a period of deep thought.
When he was sitting down, he gave off a scholarly and refined aura, but when he stood up his body was exceptionally huge, close to ten feet tall, giving off a suppressing pressure. He wore a Grade One general uniform, making him look quite proper and respectable.
Thinking carefully for a moment, the heart of the general shook. He looked back, and saw a teen wearing armor smiling as he stood a hundred feet away.
He was in his late teens, his face couldn't be considered too handsome, but he gave off a heroic temperament, his skin like jade. The armor on his body had dozens of marks. Who knew what the old scratches on the green armor were from...
The general was startled, he scolded, \”Where have you been? You finally know how to come back now?\”
The teen smiled, not caring at all. First he bowed seriously towards the general. \”Son greets father!\” He walked up beside the stone table and sat down, grabbing the fruit on it and biting down like he was extremely hungry, one bite was one fruit.
The general was helpless, walking up beside the stone table and looking at the young man there, love flashing in his eyes. He looked at the green armor, and the dozens of white scars on it. They were all half an inch deep, many parts had pierced the armor.
The cuts were clean, obviously made with much strength, leaving him terrified.
\”Yue'er, the outer regions are actually so dangerous?\”
With his son's skill, he even nearly fell due to his injuries?!
\”That was not the case!\”
The young man known as Shiyue shook his head, \”I floated from the world river to tens of worlds, their beings and looks were different from our cloud world. Many worlds had no spiritual energy, no martial path or spiritual cultivation appeared, only having the most basic striking techniques. No expert was able to fight shoulder and shoulder against me.
\”However, there were some worlds with really strong martial paths, but their cultivation techniques are different from the cloud world. What was amusing was that a few worlds heard news from our cloud world, they said our place is some celestial world! That many years ago as long as one reached a realm where they could break through space and the void they could enter our cloud world. I specially checked their books, someone at Grade Seven they would deem a celestial, how funny…\”
\”Oh? There is actually such an interesting matter? However, during the ancient era, our cloud world was filled with spiritual energy and was said to be the top of many worlds. It isn't surprising it was called a celestial world!\”
The general shook his head, amused when he heard this interesting news. Moments later, his voice sank down. \”Then who did your injuries come from?\”
Shiyue looked at his chest when he heard that, and explained without much hesitation, \”This time I went to hunt for that Yuan Wushang. In the end he broke away. Everything went wrong and I entered a world occupied by the Night Demon race, fighting with one of the military officials of their army. He stabbed me three times, and I sliced off his head!\”
\”Night Demon?\” The hands of the middle aged general shuddered. He had heard of the Night Demon race. During the Cloud Desolate Era they once ran rampant around the cloud world. In the outer regions, they were able to rule a region!
It was said that the cloud world's military system was modelled after that of the Night Demons!
A major led a unit, but the soldiers in the Night Demon unit were all above Grade Four, similar to Xiantian experts and Out of Body spirit masters of the cloud world!
The major was someone who was at least half a step spirit realm and had been through numerous battles, different from the cloud world experts, who were training in other worlds.
Such a person, if they in front of him, he would be able to kill them with one finger. However, if it was his son, who knew if he should be worried or happy.
\”The personality of those Night Demon race people aren't good, they couldn't win one versus one, so they decided to gang up and stop at nothing. I had no choice, during this year I had to flee east and hide west. Two months ago, I managed to kill a Night Demon governor commander before I was able to break free safely.\”
What should have been an extremely dangerous matter was said simply in the lad's mouth, like it wasn't worth mentioning at all.
The general frowned. The commander-level Night Demon race person would have definitely been at the spirit realm.
He looked harder. The teen in his eyes not only had a bit more killing aura, the energy in his body was something he couldn't see through!
