30 Chapter 30
"Haaaa...."
Xiao exhaled out as his eyes opened up, his black eyes that shined with a tingle of white focused on the opponent in front of him, Xiao's grip on his sword tightened, right now he's practicing in the Yun family's training room, in front of him stood a child of 14 who too used sword
The world he is in is an illusion with a touch of reality, here you would be able to fight against different foes to increase your mastery over different techniques, well it was only applicable for the geniuses of the family, even if he was not well liked by his father he was still a 'genius', so he was given the basic needs
Without wasting any time, the opponent he had chosen shot forward as his sword slashed at Xiao's neck, Xiao calmly lifted his sword as he parried it, the opponent seems to scoff as his sword lit up in a silver hue as he waved it in a precise speed causing several sword winds to be produced, as they ruffled their way towards Xiao
Seeing it Xiao's sword too lit up in a silver hue as he waved it at the exact same manner as his opponent but unlike his opponent Xiao's attainment in the same technique was higher, within seconds several sword wind slashes appeared from Xiao's sword as they met his opponents technique and as if it was made of paper Xiao's move easily overpowered his opponents move and killed him ripping him apart
Xiao sighed seeing it, right now all the opponents he faced would just go down in a single move, yet not a hint of arrogance remained in his eyes, why would he be happy at beating these losers?, especially when he knows the kind of monstrous geniuses that would be rooming the same era as him
'Sigh this is no longer useful for me...'
Xiao thought, currently it has been a few weeks since his engagement fiasco, things were a bit roudy for a bit but they settled down soon, his life alternated between increasing his cultivation, talking and playing with Xuanyin, Yun Yurou and Li Lun, it would seem that Li Lun would visit him whenever she would have free time
It seems that she was getting closer to him, as for Yun Yurou she seems to have returned to normal, just like always she spends her time with me whenever she's free, it would seem that she had let go of her feelings....maybe
Well since they have the same element he would always meet her and spar with her but she always seemed a bit weird when they were together with Li Lun, Yun Yurou would always look at Li Lun with a strange gaze, well it was unsettling to say the least
At least she was better than Xuanyin, who would stick to him like glue when the other girls would appear, she would hug him and try to keep him to herself, he would feel subtle hints of jealousy from her, a emotion he thought she would never have but once he felt it his heart warmed up
It would mean that she truly did care for him, as for her jealousy?, he just took it as the jealousy of a cute little sister nothing more, well she was just seven, what else was he suppose to think?, anyhow the past three weeks have being very entertaining to say the least
Anyhow things would look good for now but disasters is only going to come, within a few months Li Lun would turn 10, where she would awaken, causing her disaster, making her lose her ability to walk and making her blind, for this issue he's truly powerless all he could do was to support her
But the thing he has to do now is to deal with Xuanyin's issue, right now the bursts of cold coming from her body is increasing at a rapid pace, the cold blasts is getting stronger and more colder, if it wasn't for his cultivation increasing to the 7th level of the Body Refinement realm he would have frozen to death, even though he was just taking half of it
'No wonder she was that cold...'
Xiao thought, just how much pain did his sister truly have to go through?, it would make sense why she was always that cold, after all at his first life she had to take all this alone, shaking his head Xiao focused at his current thoughts
'Samsara Primordius Famine, I must get it'
Xiao's face turned serious as he thought of it, a heaven and earth origin treasure that's ranked within the top 10 of all natural made treasure, the treasure only had simple functions but each of them were heaven defying
One of it's main function being drawing in the latent bloodline and potential of a person, while it might not sound great, it's ability is something else, it would draw in the deepest ability hidden in ones body, miniscule as it may be it would draw in the strongest power that one might not be able to imagine
And the other great function of it is that it would bestow a physique on the person who would use it!, that's right a physique!, something drooled over by many, even the one's in the upper heavens, plus there are more powerful uses to it too
Xiao had gone through several scenarios and treasures, until he finally arrived on this one, from what he remembered this treasure was found by 'that' guy but it was destroyed in battle, thankfully there was two of it, hence he would be able to give one to his mother too, helping her break past the barrier that prevents her
As for himself?, well he doesn't need it, as greedy as he is, he always places his family above it, this would be the one and only chance to change his sisters and mothers fate, one might wonder why Xiao's adamant on helping his sister, even though she would awaken on her on down the line? 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄o𝐦
The reason was simple, leaving aside the pain his sister would have to undergo, the 'natural' way in which she awakens would make her lose something precious.....her feelings, that is the price she had to pay, unlike now where she was unable to show it, she would lose all her feelings turning her into a emotionless doll
And he Xiao will never allow it, the only problem here being is that at the current moment he is not strong enough to get that treasure, if he gors to 'that' place now, he would undoubtedly be killed easily
'3 years...'
That's the limit Xiao had set, at the age of 13 he must venture to find the treasure alone, truthfully Xiao has no idea if he will be able to get that treasure, all that he would be doing then would be a gamble, a gamble to change the fate of the people he loves
