what we is for you two to become become of our disciple at the main branch" the old man said proudly.

"what's the difference? and which one of you will grant me the most freedom" nyx asks

a different old man wearing a black robe witb stars all over it comes forward. " there is a vast difference, normally every 3 years the branches in the mortal world would have an inner tournament and only the top 3 would be allowed to come to the main branch. it's as different as heaven and earth. and I think my void sect would give you the most freedom," he smiles and says.

hang on old man" an older lady wearing place blue robes says. who says she will join you? nyx join me and I can teach you the strongest ice magic and you will be a shoe in for our next sect leader."

I don't mean to offend, but I want to cukvates both knight and magic, I also want to use all 3 of my affinity. not just one" I shake my head.

then you should join the immortal sect" an old man say, we have books about everything, he smiles. "what type of freedom can you give me" I ask with a serious face.

"you can go anywhere you wsnt, but you will have someone follow you, till your reach earth knight, best I can offer" he says.

" I need some time to think" I say.

without knowing yu walks forward" I want to join the battle hard sect, but I would like to reject the offer and start off in the side branch"

ehhhhhh" shocking everyone.

" why do you reject going to the main branch, you will be only delaying yourself" he says with a cornering look. "if it's about your friends they can come too. but they would have to start with being outer disciple before anything." he quickly adds, trying to win more favor.

yu looks down then he looks at star and silver... "okay, I'll go to the main branch but i want to start out in outer part with them and work my way inwards, so I can make a name for myself with my own talents" he says with pride.

good good" saying good twice he wave his hand picking up yu, star and silver. " I'll send your branch more resources this year" he looks at the battle hard rep.

" thank you elder" be bows

"so little miss have you chosen" an old man says.

before she could saying thing

" nyx don't react, I have a 3rd options just for you. I can send you away into the culvator world. I could only send you, because although your brother has immortal talent and it is rare, at least every great sect has at least 1 and at most 2. but you are different. I don't know where you will end up, but it will be the only way to grant you true freedom, but the cost would you will lack resources and cause your growth to slow down. is that what you want, blink once for yes, twice for no" the voice with a hypontic tone vanishes from my head..

do I want absoutle freedom? yes. am unknown drive in me. I blinked once, the voice comes back" good, tell then they you would like a night to think about it, and wait in your room. and I'll explain everything" then it vanishes.

" excuse me elders and reps I can't decided. I would like a night to discus with my parents on what I should pick, if that's okay?

" ridiculous, you think this a game, and because we are awear of your taken we are at your beck and call?" an old man wearing all red robes with skull coem forward. staring dagger at me.

" i know this is a selfish request but I don't want to rush into my choice and regret it." I bow again

"hmpt, we will meet back st the firdt light of dawn, we may not be more strict later, are you sure about it?" the older lady says.

"i am sure" I said back with determine voice

"okay, first light of dawn" they all agreed.

the atmosphere in the back was tense. I slowly withdraw back to my parents, as i enter their embrace, all eyes starring at me.

" with the exception of nyx the talent selection comes to a close" the city lord says. he clap his hands and waiters come our bring plates of food for everyone. the atmosphere livings up, yu, star and silver all come down the sky with dark faces, like they were confused and conflicting with themselves about something. our group is the first to leave, as we get in the carriage we head home in silence, once we got in, xue says she would make dinner. breaking the silence. I hear up stairs.

while at the front slowly walking towards the office. " ming are you sure you should have said that" lee says to his wife

" well we know the truth, if she joined any of the group's beside frozen glacier she would be used as a marriage to stronger sects or school or worse, I can't stand that. if frozen glacier was stronger maybe I would allow her to go." ming says with worry.

" but you used that and influenced her into choosing you, and we don't know where she would end up? she hasn't even cultivated yet. lee said back.

" i will try and get her as close to a tomb of the absolute immortal that we found in our younger days, I don't want her to end up like us. forced to run away and hiding. I hate it. we keep degrading levels each day. getting weaker and weaker." ming stars to tear up. thinking back to two heaven prides falling from a step to immortality back to mage and peak knight. in 20- 25 years back to a mortal..it would break the mightiest of people. lee gave ming a hug and said it will be alright. holding on the crying ming, lee wonders what it would be like if they didn't offend them. sighing" we have to make look like someone broke in and stole her. these sects would probably blame each other not knowing who has her, we can buy her some time to get stronger"

seeing ming stop crying they make their way up the stares and into nyx room. knock knock, "come in nyx says.

opening the door and walking In were her parents" nyx we need to talk" lee says with serious face. they then proceeded to tell her that she would be used as marriage to bridge stronger sects of school with them, or be used as a pawn. finally telling that ming was the mysterious voice. " I'm sending you near a tomb your father and I found, there is no one else who knows about the location to it since we found it on chance. we were going to leave it for you and your brother when you guys got stronger but we have no choice to give it to you, this is to enter" she passes nyx a 30cm jade slip. before nyx can say anything about who her parents were in the past. she hears a tear. turning her head she see a her father rip what look to be space, so many questions on her mind, ming starts tearing up. and hands nyx the ring she always wore. ' this is a space ring. it has everything you need for the next few years. it's able to store things. I umbimded it to me. you just need to drop some blood on it and then you active it, it was suppose to be yours when you left. ming says as tears roll down her face, crying more she forces herself to hug nyx one last time. before pushing her to her father who gives nyx a heavy hug, " I know you have questions but before that become a sky knight before coming back here" he is trying to keep the tears in as he hugs nyx tighter. nyx started to cry out as it is goodbye for who knows how long, she is then pushed into the broken space everything goes black when it sealed up. many lee coughed up some blood causing his face to go extreme pale. his culvation leave drops from peak knight to first level knight, before it finally stopped. " i hope we did the right thing" lee says and he is being held by the sobing ming.

CITY LORD HOUSE

as soon as lee broke space

" what is that, a powerful auroa appears out of nowhere, are we being attacked" the city lord panics sending the auroa he then looks I'm the direction it's coming from with wide eyes oh no, taking off to find the 10 elders. he sees them all in the sky staring at the direction.

" what is in that direction" one of the older people roared.

with a meek voice, the fang resident is over there" he answers back clearly afraid.

without missing they take off. just a half a second before they got their it vanishes, smashing through the roof they look around to see the pale father with blood falling from his lips, the mother in tears. "what happened" the older lady asks

"she was taken, a robed man took her" ming said with tears dripping down her face, showing the heart break.

"who was it that leaked the information, staring at each other with viscous eyes. each were extremely pissed. they let a golden goose slip through their fingers. roaring, everyone in the house ran to nyx room. seeing the elders roar and lee pale in ming arms. yu was the first one to panic and look for nyx. not being found he can only think that she was token. he coughed up some blood and passes out. star catches him. with tears in the eyes. it wasbthe worse night for the fangs.

the end or prologue.
