"Who controls the Holy Crystal, then?" This was too much information for my brain. Luckily, I had the system, otherwise, my head would have exploded.

"No idea. No one knows. The Holy Crystal was here since the start of the Seeking Continent or that is the information that has been passed for centuries. Actually, the Ancient Ruins is also related to it. Once you exit, you can go and find a Holy Crystal, it will show you your progress on the Ancient Ruins floor. So, if you exit right now, the Holy Crystal will show you something like 80% of completion or something like that..."

"I'm confused. This kind of information about being a citizen or the Ancient Ruins weren't displayed at all when I touched the Holy Crystal." I said while remembering the time I touched it.

"That's because you touched it without any other thoughts, for sure the one who made you touch it only told you about the talent testing. So, your thoughts were on testing your talent. If you touch it now thinking it about yourself, it would reveal everything about you." Li Qi explained with care and a wide smile on his face

'This guy, he is doing it on purpose, I treated them like fools before and now he's throwing me all his knowledge to make a fool of myself.'

*Cough*

"Is there any other information concerning the Holy Crystal that I need to know?" I asked rolling my eyes at him.

"There are many things. You can just check it out when you are back in some city, it would take too much time to explain the other stuff. You also need to know that everybody can see your information the moment you got registered, as well as common information. Touch the Holy Crystal and think about the person you want to know about and the information will pop out. If you belong to a Sect, you can just use the token."

"What if I do it on your token?"

"It won't work, as it's for my use, not yours. Besides, if you do so you will get struck by a lightning bolt as a warning." Li Qi said with a serious face.

"Are you kidding me? Struck by lightning? Just for trying to use it?" I gulped...

I had Li Qi's token in my hand. Fortunately, I didn't try to use it. I threw Li Qi his token back. I was strong but not strong enough to withstand a lightning bolt.

"Now that you know more about how the Sects work, are you still unwilling to join the Light Sect? Are you going to head to the Central Country?"

"No, I have some stuff going on with the DarkWood Sect. I will try joining them." I said with an evil smile on my face.

Li Qi was startled, he turned around. I could see his stunned face.

"Some Sects are not suited for this country," I said laughing.

"Indeed, a great man has greater goals. It seems I was too short-sighted."

Li Qi kept laughing until he reached the wall.

"I accept the test." he said with confidence.

Yet another one was gone, only You Ye was left. In my previous life, I wasn't good at interacting with women, so I couldn't guess what she was thinking. This young girl had a radiant and a bright smile on her face. Ever since the confusion in their mind cleared away, she was just watching as the events were developing. For some reason, I had a bad feeling.

You Ye exhaled, she arranged a little bit her robes, she untied her gold coloured hair and left it resting on her shoulders. She puffed out her chest and started to walk to me. I was starting to get nervous, even though Shu Yi and Shu Er had a more impressive and imposing appearance than her, it remained that Shu Yi and Shu Er were bought by me. The twins were mine and were also under my Death Seal, so I could restrain or control them, but that was not the case for the girl in front of me. As she was getting closer to me, I tried several times to open my mouth, but I couldn't utter a proper word.

'Shit, what's wrong with me. It's just a girl. Where is the guy who just exterminated more than 800 lives like stepping on ants?!'

Before I knew it, my back was already against a wall and You Ye in my embrace. She had hugged me, her head with her long golden hair was resting on my chest and her bosom pressing against my body. I took a moment to appreciate this feeling.

"Brother Ye, you know, I never knew my dad. The cultivation world is really hard and tough. Love is barely existing, it is only for those with power, only they can pursue it. There are many hindrances weak people can't go past. Cultivations levels, for example: You gain a longer lifespan as you go further. What would you do? Just wait for your lover to die of old age? Would you instead spend your time searching for an item that will make your love's cultivation grow to match your own? There are many possibilities that can happen. So many people end up renouncing true love, only showing some for the benefits it can bring.

My mother was a talented and stunning woman, many people pursued her, only to end up getting rejected by her. One day, my mother was beaten by a savage who she met in the woods; that man was my father. My mother was arrogant and spoilt until she met him, later on, she found out who this man was. He was an extremely talented young man, a genius who only appeared once in a millennium. He could defeat people stronger than him with just a thought. The youth's image was imprinted in my mother's mind; she had fallen for him and she pursued him. She succeeded in the end, otherwise I would have not been born. They travelled together, many things happened between them and my mother got pregnant. My father had many talents as well as faults, he was very temperamental. One day, an incident which forced my mother to take a decision happened. Powerful young masters from the Central Country took a liking to her, something my father couldn't tolerate. He annihilated them, but then got hunted down by the whole continent. That's how big the young masters' backgrounds were. As much as my mother believed in her lover, she couldn't convince herself, she couldn't trust the words of her lover claiming that they would be ok, that nothing would happen to them. How can a single man stand against the whole continent? Who would believe it? My mother, who was pregnant with me, ran away, she escaped for my sake. She wanted her not yet born child to live, she wanted me to be born without being hunted down or having to hide and run everywhere." You Ye looked straight into my eyes.

"I don't blame my mother, she raised me and always did the best for me. But she said it herself. She regretted her choice over and over and she would undo her decision if she could. My father was never killed in the end, and no one ever found him. Brother Ye, I want you to know that I don't care if you are like my father, I don't care if you stand against the whole continent. I have fallen in love with you. I will not walk down the road my mother did. I will pursue you! You will eventually become my man."

I was left speechless by You Ye's story, even more so when I heard her confession. I couldn't think straight.

You Ye's lips pressed against mine, they were mellow. My mind was being intoxicated by their savour.

"I accept the test." You Ye said while touching the wall behind me with a big smile.
