5 I Owe Her Too Much (1/2)
Even before Yun Shuqing screamed the elder already knew he made a mistake.
The young man in front of him was nothing and had no backing whatsoever, but he was still favored by the young mistress of the clan.
Although he restrained his might and only attacked with power equivalent to the peak of the Body Tempering Realm, it was more than enough to kill this trash easily!
If he died, wouldn't he also be buried together? Nevermind together, everyone knew the miss was cold on the surface but extremely stubborn and valued friendship highly. Before, when the Silver Clan attacked the Bright Clan and were determined to wipe them out, the miss disobeyed the Patriarch and rushed to the scene, forcing the Cloud Clan to take a stand.
When the cultivators of the Silver Clan found this boy in a slumber and wanted to kill him, the young miss crazily attacked them, almost dragging everyone into the war and being guilty of treason against the overlord. Were not for the fact that the White Clan and their prodigy also came over, the matter wouldn't have ended so easily.
When the Elders objected to bringing this boy here, their miss proclaimed she would leave the family and the Patriarch almost died on the spot. The greatest prodigy of the Cloud Clan, leaving the family over a trash at the 4th layer that would probably never wake up?
Over their dead bodies!
If their ancestors knew, they would be killed without burial.
The Elder tried to soften his attack, but another palm came meeting his attack halfway.
Ming Ren was furious. He could only think about his family and his clan. It was the second time the Bright Clan was expelled from their rightful home. The shame of the past and the present together already reached his limit, but now this old man came out of nowhere and attacked him.
The battles at the Bright Scripture hardened his resolve and tempered his abilities. Right now he was not that young man of fourteen years but a cultivator that went through hell and beyond. Seeing as he was in the fourth layer, the elder didn't use any Spirit Energy outside of his attack. The Elder was also only a common cultivator without any True Element or Rare Energy.
Ming Ren revolved the Qi inside his body and activated his Dragon Light Divine Body physique, meeting the attack of the Elder with his own palm instantly.
Crash!
The elder was slightly pushed back but Ming Ren crashed into the wall, breaking to the other side and flying a few meters. His body flew like a ragdoll before he landed on the ground. As soon as he landed, Ming Ren spurted a mouthful of blood.
The Elder was as pale as a clean white sheet, 'Ended, my life has ended…'
Yun Shuqing also trembled in fear. She was afraid Ming Ren died, but feared, even more, the wrath of her sister. Others might not know how much she liked Ming Ren, but she was the exception.
All the servants around froze on the spot. What the hell just happened? Was that a person… flying?
The other Elder at the peak of the spirit realm quickly rushed over and checked an unconscious Ming Ren's pulse, breathing a sigh of relief soon. The other Elder, seeing this, also relaxed.
”Uncle, you… you're so brave…” After she saw that Ming Ren only fainted, Yun Shuqing quickly poked his sore spot.
”Y-young mistress...p-please, d-don't tell your sister…” A solemn cultivator at the peak of the spirit realm trembled and almost fell on his knees begging.
Yun Shuqing could only look away. She was also mad at this uncle.
”He is not in danger. Let's bring him to the Patriarch,” the other Elder said.
Not in danger?
A boy at the fourth layer just withstood an attack at the peak of the body tempering realm?
What kind of luck was that?!
**
An unconscious Ming Ren escaped to the dreamland. He stood alone in a sea of blood, wearing a solemn white robe.
”Hehehehehe… Solemn Divine Monarch, all feeble and weak. How about giving me control of your body? I'll slaughter everyone that dares to cross our path.”
That figure was shrouded in a transient veil, and Ming Ren could not see who or what it was. Somehow, his voice was also the same, whether it belonged to a man or a woman unknown.
Divine Monarch? Was he talking about him?
”Don't look at me with those eyes… we're already one. Your enemies are my enemies, right? So, let your anger out. Burn this world. Burn them all and eat their souls. If you do, you will avenge your mother!”
”My mother isn't dead!” Ming Ren screamed at the top of his lungs.
”HaHaHaHaHa… that is it! This anger! This is what you need! RELEASE ME!”
But he knew. He knew that thing wasn't something that could be trusted.
”Fool! Death would be a good dream for your mother! In the world of cultivation, many things are much worse than death!”
Ming Ren's eyes exploded with Fury but he managed to restrain himself. His mother was still alive and well. Somehow, he knew it.
He would not give in to that demon!
As he closed his Eyes, the figure twisted his face in disgust.
”Someday, you will certainly need me,” he grinned before disappearing.
