..

Xin manor in Ogden town

It was already late in the afternoon at about 3 o'clock when the figure lying calmly on the bed began to move.

"Ugh.." Xin Ja stretches his arms in the air as he sits up in bed.

He could feel a strange sensation in his body as if he has rested really well and his body is brimming with vitality.

.

"This.. What is happening?" he thought.

He then noticed a screen in front of him that shows something that made him feel elated.

"This.. I.. I have reached the gold stage?" he muttered as he quickly closes his eyes and inspect his dantian.

When he does, he immediately saw a golden sphere in his dantian which is brimming with power and vitality.

"So this is the gold stage.. Why does my unique vision call this stage, the saint realm?" he thought as he observes the gold orb in his dantian.

"I only need one more stage and I will reach the glowing golden stage, if that happens then I will be like the rest of the people in town. I can then be called a Ki fighter.. Haha.." he said in excitement as he jumps out of bed.

Then suddenly Xin Ja froze as he recalled that his father has already known his secret. He then quickly looks around and saw no one so he heaves a sigh of relief. No one ever bothers him in his room. He already knew that his father seem to have become an important person in the town, that's why they are now living in a large manor.

And the manor actually has many servants and guards along with some secret guards. He discovered this in the 4th year when he woke up, and he was happy about it.

But of course, he did not still give up on his goal of becoming strong.

"Should I still go out sneakily at night, or just strut through the door?" he thought.

But the idea of interacting with people made Xin Ja feel a bit uncomfortable.

"Nah.. Let's stay as I used to be.." he muttered as he sits on the bed in a cross-legged manner and began to cultivate.

Suddenly, Xin Ja heard some footsteps getting closer towards his room.

"Hey.. Are you sure that young master Xin is not a fool anymore?" he heard a female voice asked.

"Yes, I noticed master and his son fighting last night. I was really amazed at how strong the young master really is.. Hihi.." the other female voice said.

"Really? I.. I want to see him. If he really is not a fool anymore, I don't mind being his bed servant.. Hihi.."

"Hey.. Let's share.. Hihi.."

"I have my eyes on young master ever since I saw him. Although he is a fool, I could not deny that he is a very handsome fool."

"I know right.. let's just peep, I don't want him to have a bad impression of us.."

"Umm.."

Then he heard some rustling sound on the side of the wall where there is a window.

A slight smile crept on Xin Ja's face as he suddenly open his eyes and looks at the ceiling without moving. He was back in his old self when he was in the process of learning.

When the two young women saw this, they both showed a dejected expression on their faces. This is true especially the one who saw the fight between Xin Ja and his father. She almost could not believe her eyes.

"Wait a minute.. he is still the same. Are you kidding me?"

"No.. I mean, I really saw him back then."

"Hold on, it was dawn at that time. Maybe.. Maybe the young master is just awake at night?"

The two seem to comprehend something and nodded their heads to leave.

When the two left, Xin Ja chuckled and shake his head.

"Is that really funny?" suddenly a voice sounded in the corner of the room.

Xin Ja's figure immediately froze.

"You kid.. Are you really going to do this to me?" Xin Jong said with a serious expression.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback he did not know when his father appear and he did not expect that his father is actually just in the corner.

"Pa.. Papa.. when.. When did you know how to use runes?" Xin Ja said with a doubtful expression.

Xin Jong walks to the bed and hits Xin Ja's head.

"You have a lot of rune plates in your bag, this is one of yours. You.. sigh. Son tell me... what is your true goal? And.. and also I noticed something really peculiar... How are you able to absorb chaotic Ki?"

Xin Ja's did not know how to answer that.

Well, he already told his father when he was younger about the unique vision, but his father did not believe him, so how could he explain this then?

"Umm.. Papa.. When I was young, I told you something about my strange and unique vision, right?"

Xin Jong thought for a while and seems to remember something so he nodded his head. Then suddenly, he realized what his son is getting into.

"So you mean to say that your ability comes from that vision?"

"Yes.. I have been learning for four years the things in the vision. And on the 5th year, I began to practice them.." Xin Ja began to explain what he has learned and did for the past 5 years.

His father was silent for a while and heaves a deep sigh. How could he relate to that strange phenomenon? If he truly believes it.. then that means that his son is being taught by a ghost or something like that?

But no matter how hard he tries, he could tell that his son is telling the truth. Plus, he has already seen his son's true strength so how could he deny it?

"Alright.. So do you plan to continue doing this for the rest of your life?" Xin Jong asked.

This time Xin Ja was the one who turned silent. He also knew that this is not feasible. In fact, when venturing out at night, he discovers that the world outside is vast and wide where he can have many adventures. He knew that one of these days he has to go out.

Seeing that his son is in deep thought, Xin Jong stood up.

"Think about it son.. no matter what your decision is, I, your father, will always support you." He said with a smile as he turns around and left.

..

The night sky is a bit bright today as the two silver moons in the sky illuminate the surroundings without clouds obstructing their light.

The town of Ogden, market place

Although it is already nighttime, yet there are still people walking around the town.

The vendors at this time did not shout out their wares as night vendors are different from morning ones.

Those who dare sell their wares at night at those that have the strength to back it up. This is because.. nighttime is one of the most dangerous times within the day for the weak in Ogden town.

This is why, Xin Jong when his power is still sealed, he dare not sell at night. When he went home twice and it was already nighttime, he got nabbed and has even been stabbed.

And so, those that dare to venture are night at those that are at level 2 at least and above.historical

In the marketplace, many Ki fighters are looking around at the vendors who are selling their wares. Most of the wares on sale are mostly medicinal herbs, old artifacts, rune talismans, and weapons and armors. Those are the things that most Ki fighters use and needed in their missions.

At this time, a figure cloaked in black is currently walking through the streets while looking at the wares around him.

Every now and then he would approach a store and looks at its wares. However, he has been to many stores, and still, he did not find what he is looking for.

Suddenly, from the corner of his eyes, he noticed a group of people.

There are four young men and one young woman in that group. The young woman looks really pretty and she is wearing a silk gown which insinuated the curves of her body. However, in just one look, the figure could tell that she is the strongest of the group.

Then his eyes landed on the thing that the group is trying to buy.

The one behind the stall is a white-haired old man smoking from his pipe while looking calmly at the group of youth.

"Old man.. This is just s piece of metal junk. Why not sell it to us? I am willing to pay for it for 100 coppers.." the young man standing beside the young woman said.

His words made the old man frowned. He did not reply and just shake his head.

"What a foolish old man. I am already giving you a bargain. Do you know who I am? I am Man Wanjing, a student of Ogden academy. My senior likes this piece of metal scrap.. you should be lucky that I am willing to fork even 100 coppers for it!" he said with a proud smile.

The people around them are already beginning to gather and most of them are here to see a show happening.
