Xiao Che laughed a little “Yeah...... Hah..... back then I think I was truly incompetent…”

Xiao Che was discouraged, he remembered the day when he was still a child. he tried to smile and said

“Back then I was mock by all because of my inability in cultivation. heh.... Mom and Dad were great Cultivators, both of them have achieved the Cosmic Heavenly State and comes from a great Sect. as for me, even since I was born, Heaven’s has deemed me undeserving of cultivating.”

Lian’Er, Xiao Che childhood friend, remembered too, that in the past, Xiao Che was a diligent boy; he would train all-day and sometimes all-night to increase his Spiritual Qi progress. It was unfair that he was one of the people who had a broken Spiritual Essence, if only Xiao Che was not cursed by fate, he would become one of the geniuses that shocked the JiangHu.

Lian’Er looked at Xiao Che sad expression, she then smiled and said

“Xiao Che, even though you have a regretful past, but you have grown into such a great cultivator... Uncle and Aunt must be proud if they can see you right now...” Said Lian’Er while looking at Xiao Che eyes.

Xiao Che looked at Lian’Er with a soft smile. He remembered that she had been with him throughout his entire life, he was grateful to have someone like Lian’Er to be on his side. He looked at Lian’Er with a soft smile.

“Hmm... but you are far greater than me, Miss Converging Heavenly State at the age of 19...” Said Xiao Che with a teasing tone.

“Eh..... That was just my luck hehe” Said Lian’Er with an embarrassed face.

Since childhood, Lian'Er had been blessed by resource and profound talent for cultivation. Her grandfather was the one that established the ravaging Flame Sect and thus, Lian'Er too, became a respected member of the sect. She was one of the genius and treasure of the Lian Family, but Lian’Er lacked the will in becoming the strongest, and that side of her disappointed the Lian Family; she also didn’t want her life to be bound by rules, expectation and tradition, and thus, she neglected her parent wishes and chose to be free. Lian’Er was a blessed child, sadly because she liked to be with Xiao Che who was considered “cursed”, many people and relative from her household liked to mock Lian’Er behind her back, this was also one of the reasons Xiao Che wanted to become strong, so that these people wouldn’t mock Lian’Er anymore.

Xiao Che then continued looking at the star, he then remembered his benefactor, the person that had changed his life.

“Lian’Er, do you think Lian Long ever been in these kinds of problem?” Asked Xiao Che with a smile.

“Uncle Lian Long? Hmm... If it was him, he would smack himself in the head for thinking useless stuff like this hehe... but if it regarding his Spiritual Essence, then I don’t know...” Said Lian’Er happily as she remembered her uncle.

“He never talks about himself when he is with me..... I think he only talks about himself, when he is with you, Xiao Che.” Said Lian’Er with a gentle smile at Xiao Che.

Xiao Che just smiled at Lian’Er.

Cursed by a broken Spiritual Essence, Xiao Che lived his life in a pitiful and difficult state. No matter how hard he trained, no matter how hard he studied, he wouldn’t even pass the High Earthly State. He was always get insulted and mocked by his big family and friends, even his parents also became the mocking stock of people. It was only when Lian Long, Lian’Er uncle and The Genius of The Lian Family came and help him. Lian Long was a 35 years old man who had achieved the Greater Heavenly State, he was "The Mount Tai and North Star” of the Lian Family and was respected by all of its member and also the JiangHu, even The Heavenly Blessings recognized him as a strong warrior. Lian Long was a kind man with a great sense of freedom in his heart. He had travelled all over XinTang Dynasty to became strong and powerful, but when he saw how the people treated Xiao Che, he became enraged at them, and since then, he became a Master like figure for Xiao Che. Xiao Che would learn the Ravaging Flame Art from him, and thus, both of them developed a deep connection with each other. But for some unknown circumstances, Lian Long suddenly vanished from Xiao Che and Lian’Er family, but not without giving Xiao Che something that would change his life, that was Lian Long own Spiritual Essence, and since then, Xiao Che started to prove himself worthy of cultivating. He rose from the Cursed Child to be one of the Strongest people in Ravaging Flame Sect, he proved himself to be stronger than the people from the Lian Family and succeeded in making the Lian Family acknowledge him. Now Xiao Che planned to achieve Godhood and find Lian Long. But for now, he had to control Great Dragon Fire from his body.

The Great Dragon Fire was a parasite that lived on Lian Long Spiritual Essence. The parasite made the Qi Flow of the inhabitant unstable and if left uncontrolled, will result in an outburst of the Qi Flow that led to death. But this parasite could also increase the Qi Power of the inhabitant at an unimaginable rate.

“This power, I want to control it, if I can control this, I’m sure I can be much stronger than before.” Said, Xiao Che as he touched his chest.

“En, Xiao Che if you can control The Dragon Fire, I’m sure you power would be on par with someone who has achieved Cosmic Heavenly State” Said Lian’Er brightly.

Xiao Che looked at Lian'Er, he leaned closer to her, and gaze deeply into her eyes. talking to her made him reassured, Xiao Che felt calm and happy when he was with her, he smiled at her and touched her hair.

"Lian'Er.... Thank you for accompanying me..." Said Xiao Che, as he touched the strands of Lian'Er hair.

Lian'Er was surprised at Xiao Che sudden gesture.

"Eh... Xiao... Xiao Che?" Said Lian'Er with a red blushing face. She braves herself and looks at Xiao Che eyes, her body froze in front of the person she liked; a Cosmic Heavenly State Cultivator, the Blessed Child of the Lian Family, still cannot hold herself in front of the person she loved.

"Xiao.... Xiao Che..." said Lian'Er with a soft voice, she felt Xiao Che was getting nearer and nearer, her heart was pounding, she didn't know what to do. Lian'Er then closed her eyes, and lean her mouth nearing Xiao Che mouth.

"............."

Lian'Er stayed silent, she was waiting with full anticipation and a little bit of fear for something to happen.

Unknown to Lian'Er, Xiao Che hearts beat faster than her. He looked at Lian'Er beautiful face, he was feeling absolutely uncertain of whether he should kiss her or not.

"....."

Xiao Che stood silent, he thought to himself.

"Lian'Er I have always loved you, but, do you truly wanted a man like me.... Ah! for fuck sake! it's now or never!"

Xiao Che then moved his mouth to kiss Lian'Er... Forcefully!

"Umph!" Lian'Er was surprised, she didn't expect Xiao Che to be... this willing. She was surprised but happy, the shocks of the lips of the person she loved intoxicated her, her hand suddenly moved to embrace Xiao Che. The sheer ecstasy of a long-awaited kiss engulfed Lian'Er with pleasure.

"Xiao...Xiao Che..." uttered Lian'Er with a soft moaning voice as she struggled to free her lips from Xiao Che untamed kiss. She opened her eyes, when suddenly...

*Knock! *Knock!

"Xiao Che, you've asleep yet?" Xia Yu voice was heard outside the room...

"Eh.... Xia... Xia Yu, no... I haven't" Said the surprised Xiao Che as he left the frozen Lian'Er on the balcony.

"Huh.... Then go to sleep, it's already this late" Said Xia Yu from the door.

"Oh.... o.. okay!" Said Xiao Che full with embarrassment.

He then looked at Lian'Er.

"Lian'Er I think you too should....." Before Xiao Che even finished his sentence, the overwhelming murderous aura that emitted from Lian'Er brought chills to his spine.

Lian'Er closed her eyes and put on a clear, big, smile

"Yes... I think I will go to sleep" said Lian'Er calmly with a murderous tone as she leaves the room.

"Eh....Eh...." Said Xiao Che full of confusion.
