3 Chapter 3 - Welcome to Lightning Lake (1/2)

Zhu Xuan calmed himself down and started to think about what happened, and couldn't help but frown when he thought about his second brother, Zhu Lang.

Zhu Lang, seven years older than Xuan, was the strongest among the younger generation of Zhu clan.No one knows for sure exactly how strong he is at the moment. He is rumoured to be already at the Meridian purification of Body purification Stage.

Body purification is divided into twelve stages, first three stages is Bone purification, second to sixth stage is Blood purification, sixth to ninth stage is Muscle purification, and finally last three stages is Meridian purification. Once your body is completely purified, you will start gathering Qi in you dantian to enter into Qi gathering stage.

Zhu Lang, being in Meridian purification is very close to Qi gathering stage.

He is destined to be the next clan patriarch. Though he looked like a kind person with his slight smile always on his face, he is actually a very cunning and ruthless individual. He just manipulated this body's previous owner and used him as ”Killing the chicken to warn the monkey” to show his other siblings this is the fate of anyone who goes against him.

His fifth brother, Zhu Huang, started to attract some elders to his side recently. It was clear he is building strength to fight for the successor position for the next patriarch. Just to warn his fifth brother, Zhu Xuan, who has nothing to do with the power struggle, had to suffer such a miserable fate from his second brother.

When he thought about all the issues he had to face when he get back to Qinglu city, he couldn't help but be anxious. He subconsciously touched his chest like he did in Earth when he was anxious. Suddenly he stopped and with shock looked down to see his hands touching the dragon shaped pendant.

He thought, ”How come the dragon shaped pendant is still here”. Then realisation hit him. The dragon shaped pendant is the reason he transmigrated to this world.

He couldn't help but wonder about the origin behind this dragon shaped pendant, how it possessed such ability, and how it was found in an ancient site on Earth.

He looked down at the pendant and couldn't help but fantasise about it. Back in Earth, reading wuxia novels was a way for him to release his frustrations and fantasise about how he will be successful. Those are the moments he would have a child like attitude, different from his usual crazy scientist side.

He couldn't help but give a silly smile and took off the pendant and turned it around and around and looked at it carefully. It looked the same as he remembered except for the eye is now blood red.

When he was about to check the pendant in detail, he heard the sound near him and turned towards the direction of the sound with caution.

He saw the tiger got up and walked towards him, it looked at him and he can see it was thinking about something. He suddenly received a message in his mind ”I need your blood.”

Xuan got frightened and subconsciously took few steps back.

”Don't be afraid. I'm not planning to kill you, I just need a little amount of your blood to verify something” the tiger replied calmly.

”May I know what it is you are verifying?” he asked somewhat with desperation being caught in a difficult situation.

”I'm not sure myself, it's just an intuition” the tiger replied with some eagerness in its eyes.
