Chương 12: Chapter 11: An Addition to the Family
As Chen Xin walked back from the Arena to the practice field, he couldn't help but yearn for the strength that the four geniuses showed on the field. He was 19 years old and only a four-star Battle Practitioner. His entire life seemed to be a waste compared to the geniuses in Canaan Academy. He wondered when he would finally be able to get revenge for the death of his entire family. He didn't know what the people who slaughtered his family were looking for, but his father and grandfather sent him out the secret tunnel and told him to protect the jade pendant, which looked like a sword, and gave him an old broadsword. He lived in the wild for a few days before being picked up by a kind-hearted Canaan Academy elder. Those thoughts lingered as he walked to his secret training ground.
He slowly took off the sword and began to swing the broadsword repeatedly. As his mind fully concentrated on the broadsword and swinging it, a small but sharp momentum continuously poured out of him. However, it was still too loose.
Hidden behind the trees, Fa Ma looked at the tall and broad young man in front of him. His hands were wrapped in bandages, and he looked relatively ordinary. However, he was a monster of a man, being over two meters tall and filled with muscles. Fa Ma hadn't sensed the faint sword momentum wrong at all. Even though it hadn't fully formed, it was halfway there. Was he finally going to get his first younger brother? Forming sword momentum was no joke, and the man must be quite talented to have already reached this step without a tutor. It was also a sign of one going his own path; the reason others get stuck at bottlenecks is that they haven't reached the cultivation state required for future realms. For example, a person stuck at peak Battle Spirit must have no clue how to mobilize the surrounding energy of the world if he is unable to advance to Battle King. If he could get further training and resources, he could very well reach the Battle Venerable. Now that he thought about it, Yao Chen had his brother Feng Zun. Therefore, he should have his own brother who surpassed him. This trivial thought directly decided Chen Xin's future.
An hour passed by as Chen Xin slowly wound down his practice due to exhaustion. Just when he was about to finish, a small dagger flew at him. He quickly blocked it with his sword and immediately raised his sword again, scanning for his opponent. Behind him, a short man launched a punch towards him. He only had time to dodge before a kick slammed into his midsection. He went flying before he hit the tree. As he finally got a full look at his opponent, it was a short man who was only about 1.5 meters tall. He gritted his teeth and pulled himself up. He still had to complete his family's revenge before he died. Despite the cold killing intent directed at him, his heart felt peaceful.
His sword shone, and an immature but sharp momentum finally condensed on Chen Xin. The sword shone brighter and brighter, and a bloody smoke slowly appeared out of Chen Xin's body. His strength vaguely reached a Battle Master. Shocked at this newfound power, Fa Ma immediately incapacitated him in worries that he was overdrawing his potential. As Fa Ma scanned Chen Xin's body, he only noticed some blood and qi being depleted while his essence remained fine. In addition, he felt a faint spiritual fluctuation from Chen Xin's sword. He seemed to have picked up a talented little brother. He carried Chen Xin on his back and refined some pills suitable for Chen Xin. He gave them to Chen Xin and laid him down on his bed. While scanning Chen Xin's body once over, he actually noticed that his new little brother had a strong blood attribute and that he was only practicing water-attributed skills. Fa Ma's life had begun to be a little more interesting.
Fa Ma simply practiced for the rest of the night and continued studying the Earth level techniques in the simulation space.
As Chen Xin awoke, he just saw a regular ceiling. Immediately, he reached out to his pendant and sword but could only grab ahold of his pendant. He got up in a hurry to search for his sword and soon saw it lying in the corner of the room. His mind was overloaded from all the changes that happened to him, but he immediately grabbed his sword and got in a ready position. As he exited the room, he soon saw Fa Ma cooking something in the kitchen. He immediately launched an attack but was soon immobilized. "That was a rude way to greet your big brother, you brat." Now Chen Xin was absolutely flabbergasted as he felt like he was imagining things.
"Tsk tsk, kids nowadays have no manners." Fa Ma promptly gave Chen Xin a fist of love as he turned around and put the food on the table. "Well, don't lie down for so long, get your butt up and eat." Chen Xin just decided to follow the kid's orders as he was stronger than him. They ate in silence while Chen Xin soon noticed that the energy in the food he was eating was amazing. He immediately started to sit down and practice, but before he could refine the energy, Fa Ma simply sealed it in his body. "Just relax, brat. Nobody is stealing the food from you."
Having had enough, Chen Xin growled, "Who you calling a brat?" Fa Ma looked at him as if he was an idiot. "You, you dunce." Chen Xin took a second to calm himself down before asking, "Who the hell are you?" "There are many answers to that question. I'm the guy you saw in the arena yesterday, the guy who beat the shit out of you last night, and your new big brother who even helped you condense your sword momentum." Chen Xin simply sat stunned as Fa Ma continued to eat with gusto. "Oi, you sure are slow at processing things. What type of women do you like?" "Ones with big butts as they could give birth to better babies," Chen Xin replied. Fa Ma simply sighed, "That's an acceptable answer, I suppose."
"Well, have you gotten over your shock yet?" "Yeah, I suppose so. However, I won't be anyone's little brother, especially not to a kid like you," Chen Xin briskly replied and soon began to stand up. However, just when he was about to finish standing, he felt a cold spear pressing against his neck. "Wrong answer. The weak don't get to choose." Fa Ma simply liver punched him. "Now answer the question again." Feeling Fa Ma's increasingly cold eyes, Chen Xin simply responded, "Fine, I'll be your little brother." Fa Ma happily stood up and said, "That was the best decision of your life. Here's a Profound medium-level blood attribute technique. Switch to it and tell me when you are done. I'll help you refine the energy in your body."
As Chen Xin sat at the table, he couldn't have imagined that decades later he would be writing in a diary about the best decision of his life.
