= Luo Household =
“Luo Kai greets the Supreme Divine God!”
“Luo Kai greets the Supreme Demon Empress!”
“Son, why are you being distant? You can just call me father.”
“Father called me in the meeting room, so I thought.”
“Alright, it was father’s mistake. Please be at ease.”
Demon Empress Luo Bing leaped and hugged Luo Kai crying like a child.
“My son, mother really missed you, are you healthy? Do you eat on time? Brush your teeth? Take a bath? Did someone bully you? Tell mother! I’ll eradicate all 18 generation of their family!”
Helios Kai : Hayssss.. “My wife, can you be a little decent? Your son is getting annoyed.”
“!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Luo Bing : “WHAT DID YOU SAY YOU STINKY OLD MAN! Why would my son get anno---!!!!”
Luo Bing is sulking and drawing circles on the ground.
Luo Bing : “My son now knows how to get annoyed with his mother, after all the hardships I had since pregnancy until nursing him when he is still a small baby.”
Luo Kai : “Alright mother I am not annoyed. I’m just wondering why you came here without even informing me beforehand?”
Luo Bing’s playful nature suddenly changed and the atmosphere got tense. Luo Bing and Helios Kai’s expression showed sadness and worry all while looking towards Luo Kai.
Marcus : “It seems my breakthrough is imminent.”
Luo Kai : “What? Why would you suddenly breakthrough old man Marcus? Don’t you need more time to prepare?”
Marcus : “Troubled times have come young master, peaceful days are counting.”
Luo Kai : “What do you mean?”
Luo Kai is so confused, he looked around, he looked at the faces of all the person in the house, his father and mother, marcus and selena, the warriors and servants. It came to him and realized, the remembered what and who he is. He’s the son of a forbidden love between a Demon and God. There was never a peace in the first place, there was never a Luo Household it was just a cover up to protect him. He was his parents’ biggest weakness.
Luo Kai : “I get it, father, mother.”
Helios Kai and Luo Bing’s expression showed a more painful expression. They know that after parting ways here, they might not see their son again.
Luo Kai : “I will also fight!”
“!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Helios Kai : “NOOOOOOOO!”
Helios Kai got shocked with Luo Kai’s words and exert an outburst of tremendous power that made the surrounding thousand mile radius tremble in earthquake.
= Somewhere within the thousand mile radius =
“What was that? That was such a strong earthquake, as if the heaven’s wrath descended upon the land”
“Did someone angered the heavens?”
“It seemed like someone provoked the heavens. They truly are out of their minds!”
= Luo Household =
Luo Bing : “HELIOS KAI!! STOP RIGHT NOW!! DO YOU WANT TO KILL YOUR OWN SON!!”
Helios Kai didn’t realize that he let out such huge amount of power that knock even some of the Sovereign warriors of the household. This amount of power can instantly crush a Human Phase warrior such as Luo Kai to a bloody pulp leaving nothing but a pile of blood.
Helios Kai : “What?! I’m really sorry, It’s not my intention for hurt anyone. I was just taken aback by Luo Kai’s words.”
Luo Bing : “I know, even if you ain’t the one who did that, I might be the one who exploded just now. I also don’t want to lose my son again, whoever dares to touch him will know that death is the easiest way to escape my clutch!”
Luo Bing let out a thin but powerful bloodlust infused with sharp killing intent that made everyone feel suffocated, even Helios Kai felt threatened. Amid all of this events, Luo Kai remained unscathed and unbeknownst to him, he could have died a thousand time have he not been protected by either Helios Kai or Luo Bing.
Luo Kai : “But father, mother, I also want to fight!”
“There could be a lot of things to scavenge there and tons of exp!”
Helios Kai : “Son, you ain’t ready for it.”
Luo Kai stand firmly refusing to back down.
Luo Kai : “Father! Don’t they say that the best way to train a soldier is to send them to the battlefield?”
Helios Kai : “But you don’t even qualify to be called a soldier?”
Luo Kai : “Hmmp! You really underestimate me father! Lookfor yourself.”
Luo Kai let his qi flow, he was suppressing his cultivation to that of 2nd Level of 3rd Stage in the Human Phase. That is to not gather too much of an attention from them and be left as a lazy young master.

Everyone was dumbfounded when Luo Kai revealed his cultivation. Everyone thought that we was slacking and just a lazy young master that’s still in the 3rd Stage. But what shocked everyone is not his cultivation level revelation but the fact that he was able to hide his real cultivation under everyone’s nose.
Marcus whispered to himself.
“Young Master managed to hide himself deeply from everyone, everyone here is a Sovereign and Emperor yet no one was able to detect his real cultivation. Even Master a Peak Supreme showed a shocked expression, shows that even him and Madam Demon Empress didn’t manage to dig his real cultivation. How did young Master did it? Did he somehow managed to pick an artifact that’s stronger than a Peak Supreme Master’s Divine Sense? But he stayed in his room. Hooo! It seems like there is something to our Young Master than meets the eye. I didn’t pay much attention to him before because I thought he was just average at best. Interesting!”
Luo Kai : “How about now father? Am I qualified now?”
Helios Kai : “I admit, you managed to fool me. Despite being a Peak Supreme Master, I didn’t manage to see through your real cultivation. But still not enough. The best geniuses of Demons and Gods can reach the Earth Phase at your best, and those gifted by Heavens can reach the Heaven Phase at age of 5. Your [ Elder Brother ]* reach 3rd Stage of Heaven Phase during his Coming of Age.
* [ He’s referring to the real Luo Kai who died 50 years ago ]
Luo Kai : “Then father, when will the war likely to happen?”
Love what you're reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on.
Helios Kai : “The war have already start but still in it’s infancy stage, tension build up more but battles are only small scale dispute. Reach the Cosmos Phase first before you can enter the battlefield. It will take at least 30 years.”
Luo Kai : “30 years? That’s too long. Father! Give me 15 years and I will reach Cosmos Phase. I will show you how OP the bloodline of a Supreme God and Supreme Demon is. Together with Alpha it will be easy.”
Luo Bing : “OP? Alpha? What are those my son?”
Luo Kai : “Hm. It’s nothing mother, it means that I am confident enough to achieve Cosmos Phase in 15 years.”
Helios Kai : “It’s good to be confident, but don’t be too complacent, even the best of geniuses can still meet their demise if not careful.”
Luo Kai : “Don’t worry father, I am not some ordinary genius, I am the Chosen One!”
Everyone let out a smile and eases the worry and fear in their hearts. If a 5 year old kid is that daunting then what’s holding them back. If the kid want to challenge the heaven then what’s stopping them to challenge the world?
Luo Kai : “Then what do you plan on doing for now father?”
Helios Kai let out an evil grin.
Luo Bing : “SHIT!! EVERYONE RUN!!”
Helios Kai, in a fraction of a second blow the entire Luo Household into smithereens.
Helios Kai said to Luo Kai while flying away from the Luo Household.
“From this day Luo Household will cease to exist in the face of the world.”
Luo Bing was shouting pursuing Helios Kai, she was really angry.
“YOU OLD DOG! COME BACK HERE! DO YOU PLAN ON GOING AFTER KILLING MY CHILD!”
Luo Kai remained unscathed because Luo Bing shielded him before Helios Kai bombarded everything.
A day after the incident talks about Luo Household after earning the anger of a master spread like wildfire. There are even talks about the Matriarch pursuing the master for revenge after he killed her son, they said that the Matriarch also suffered the same fate of dying at the masters hands.
= 1 Month Later =
[ Blue Gale City ]
A small city attached to a Grade 3 Sect [ Blue Gale Sect ].
“It only takes me a minute to travel between different plane but have taken me a month to travel a thousand mile. Having no means of flight is really inconvenient.”
“I remember that young girl is from Blue Gale Sect, I wonder how are those kids, I didn’t communicate with them since then. I remember putting it in system, old man Marcus might see it and ask too many questions so I kept it first.”
After Luo Kai have taken it kept on vibrating due to many messages. It was like a [ Messenger App ] on smartphones from his previous life.
“This kids, do they not have anything to do? Do these guys have so much time on their hands and just kept on chatting?”
Then he suddenly remembered. His brothers are exiled, orphan young lady, and a mysterious killer.
“Yeah, thinking about it, those bunch do look like they have so much time to spare.”
Luo Kai checked what’s happening with his brothers and decided to check their messages. He inserted his divine sense into the Imperial Token. And all he sees are messages calling for him.
[ Barlock ] : Eldest Brother are you okay?
[ Orphius ] : Eldest Brother are you okay?
[ Xingye ] : Eldest Brother we are all worried.
[ Zordick ] : Brother?
Same contents of messages kept on repeating. He really felt comfort and care from the kids. This kind of feeling he never felt on his previous life as an orphan and a company slave who works almost 24/7.
“Ironic. To feel this kind of feeling, a sense of camaraderie that I didn’t feel in my workplace in the previous life. And to feel it from a bunch of 5 year olds, really ironic.”
[ Luo Kai ] : How are you guys?
[ Barlock ] : Brother! We are okay, how are you?
[ Xingye ] : Eldest Brother, where have you been? We’ve been worried to death, You aren’t responding to us. We thought something bad happened to you!
[ Orphius ] : Elder Brother, Are you okay?
[ Zordick ] : Eldest Brother, where are you now?
[ Luo Kai ] : I’m okay brothers, just some things happened.
[ Xingye ] : Eldest Brother I heard your household got attacked by a really strong master, they said your house got destroyed, everyone inside died and even your mother pursued the culprit for revenge saying she will kill him for killing you.
“Rumors sure travels fast, but a strong master huh, well my old man is ridiculously strong, so it counts as half the truth, but my mother pursuing for revenge?”
Then Luo Kai remembered what her mother said back then.
[ “YOU OLD DOG! COME BACK HERE! DO YOU PLAN ON GOING AFTER KILLING MY CHILD!” ]
“Ehhh, is that what it is? Well, she’s shouting so loud, someone might have heard it. Let’s just keep it to ourselves.”
[ Luo Kai ] : Indeed, my household got destroyed by a strong master but luckily I survived.
[ Everyone ] : I’m sorry for you loss Eldest Brother.
[ Luo Kai ] : Enough with that. Xingye, I am in the Blue Gale City, are you near?
[ Xingye ] : WHAT! You’re here? Wait eldest brother, I’ll take my aunt and meet with you.
[ Orphius ] : Brother, how long will you stay there? Can you wait for me? I’m heading in that direction.
[ Barlock ] : Eldest brother, I’ll be there in a week, wait for me. Let’s travel the world together!
[ Zordick ] : Eldest brother, I’m still waiting for this 1,000 year old [ Purple Azure Poison Orchid ] it’s guarded by a Cosmos Phase level beast, it’s much faster than me so I can’t steal it. I’m still waiting for it to leave it’s nest. Can you wait a little longer for me?
[ Luo Kai ] : Zordick, I’ll be here for a little long, just take your time. You’re doing something really dangerous, be careful. Update me if there’s something.
[ Zordick ] : Thank you brother.
“Now that everyone calmed down, shall I go look around? I might find something good. I have the All-Seeing-Eye Alpha. It’s like walking through a guessing market with x-ray vision.”
Alpha : “……………………………………”
= Blue Gale City Market =
Luo Kai is walking through and scanning all the item sold in every stall. Since he is walking with Alpha he was able to determine the Grade and use of different items. Since Blue Gale City is only a 3rd class city attached to a small sect there was nothing noteworthy for him to buy.
[ Ding! ]
Alpha : “ Host, there is an [ AA ] Grade fire attribute item on the fifth stall to your right.”
“Most of the items sold here are around C and B Grade. It’s worth taking a look.”
Luo Kai walked to the stall directed by Alpha.
Luo Kai : “Old man, are you selling this seeds?”
The old man looked at Luo Kai who’s only a 5 year old kid. Although his clothes look a little well off it’s dirty and thorn. The old man assumed that this kid came from a decent family that have now fallen. He remembered his past, we was once a son of a well off family that got destroyed in a war.
Old Vendor : “Little guy, this seeds are indeed for sell, you looked young and have a passion for farming, I’ll let you pick one seed for free. This seeds are valuable seeds that I’ve collected through trading for many years, although this seed don’t have value for me now because they aren’t compatible with my lands soil, they still have value on their own.”
Luo Kai scanned through all the seeds and indeed they are all have a bit of value compared to the other stalls all seed are at least [ B- ] Grade, some even reached [ A- ] but the seed that really caugth his attention is the one Alpha was pointing to him.
[ AA+ ] [ Crimson Flame Tree Seed ]
[ A seed of ancient tree that only grow and prosper in a high density fire attribute places, it needs a constant supply of pure fire qi and exposure to heaven and earth. This tree is lost in history and can only be found on history books. This is a Heaven and Earth treasure. ]
“Alpha, this thing is so demanding, where would I find a fire attribute place that is exposed to heaven and earth without it being spotted by strong masters?”
Alpha : “Host should better keep it first, when the time is ripe we can plant it.”
“Alright, I’ll follow you.”
Luo Kai : “Old man, are you sure I can pick 1 for free? I’m not gonna hold back!”
Old Vendor : “Kiddo, this old man don’t take his words back. Suit yourself.”
Luo Kai : “Then I’ll pick this Azure colored seed. It looks beautiful, it could become a beautiful tree when it grows.”
Luo Kai picked the Crimson Flame Tree Seed.
Old Vendor : “You really have talent for farming young man, unfortunately that seed needs to be planted in a place with high density fire attribute, I tried planting it but within a hundred mile inside and outside this city, there’s no such place.”
Luo Kai : “Don’t worry old man, I’m still young, when I grow up I’ll travel the world and look for a place to plant this seed!”
Old Ventor : “Hohohoho, you have patience befitting a farmer. I look forward to that day young man!”
Luo Kai talking to himself.
“Don’t worry old man, I don’t plan on being a farmer. I’ll be a cultivator who lives for thousands of years, waiting a little time is just like a drop of water on the sea.”
Luo Kai continued to walk through the market only to be disappointed. Except the old man’s stall nothing really stand out, most of the items don’t have much value. He decided to head to the food section and eat while waiting for Xingye to come.
= 2 Hours Later =
Luo Kai unknowingly have fallen asleep on a chair besides the table where he ate some dumplings. It was already night time and most stalls have already closed. The owner of the stall took pity on Luo Kai and thought he was a orphaned beggar and decided not to wake him and left the table and chair untouched as to not disturb him.
Yawwnnn..
“.….ther.”
“.…..rother….”
“.…..nior brother!”
Xingye : “Eldest senior brother! WAKE UP!”
Luo Kai : “WAAHHH!!! Huh? What? Did I fall asleep? Staying up for a whole month did take a toll on me.”
Xingye : “Brother? Why are you sleeping here? You’re too carefree. What if you got killed or kidnapped?”
Luo Kai’s fully awaked after hearing what Xingye said. She’s right they are on the world of cultivation, there are strong masters loitering everywhere, he could have been picked without anyone knowing.
Luo Kai : “I’m in the wrong junior sister.”
Orphius : “Elder brother, I’m also here!”
Luo Kai : “What? I though it would take more time for you to come.”
Orphius : “It would have if I just go by foot, I was just about 200 miles away from this city and I have my own flying artifact.”
Luo Kai : “I see, but why are you so near here?”
Orphius : “Brother when you are unreachable, all four of us decided to meet up here in this city and make Sister Xingye lead the way to your place, we decided it after not hearing anything from you after the ceremony and especially after hearing the rumors of your household being attacked.”
Luo Kai : “You know we we’re attacked yet you want to go to my place. Are you out of your minds?”
Orphius : “Well, Zordick was pestering us too much so we can’t say no. He was saying some nonsense about him attacking the culprit and assassinating him.”
Luo Kai : “Seriously, that kid really. He’s so quiet but easily lose control of his emotions.”
Orphius : “Well we all agreed to him and I also feel the same after hearing it. Barlock even cried.”
Luo Kai : “What!! He’s so huge yet he’s actually a crybaby!”
Xingye : “We all had the same expression when we heard him cry. My jaw almost dropped.”
Orphius : “^_^”
Xingye : “Anyway let’s go to my place first, Eldest brother you look too pitiful, you should get a change of clothes first.”
Luo Kai, Xingye and Orphius head to the Blue Gale Sect.
= Blue Gale Sect =
“This sect looked better that I thought it would be. Their building and landscape are better than some Grade 4 sects. They even have a Low-level Axis Grade sect defending array. Most grade 5 sects only have mid-level Heaven Grade as their sect defending array. It seems like this sect have some history to them, they might have been a Grade 5 or 6 sect in the past.”
Xingye : “Brother, I don’t have any cloth for a boy, it seems like you need to wear some of my clothes at the moment until the servants come back to buy some clothes for you!”
Luo Kai : “WHAT! You wan’t me to wear a girl’s clothes! Sister! Stop what you’re thingking right now!”
= 5 Minutes Later =
Luo Kai was forced to wear Xingye’s clothes, he was dragged by Blue Gale Sect’s Heaven Phase level female Elders under their Young Lady’s orders.
“I was so pitiful, my dignity as a man was tarnished by a bunch of old ladies. I am so unclean now. I’m tainted.”
Orphius : “Elder Brother! You’re so beautiful.”
Luo Kai : “FUCK YOU! STOP THAT I DON’T SWING THAT WAY!”
Everyone : “He’s so beautiful!”
Luo Kai : “STOP IT!”
Orphius : “Brother, I might have fallen for you!”
Luo Kai : “STOP IT YOU HALF GECKO! SHUT YOUR MOUTH IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BECOME A DRAGON BARBEQUE!”
Everyone laughed and time passed by, soon after the servants carrying the youcng ladies orders to buy Luo Kai’s clothes arrived.
Not long after Luo Kai got dressed, they talked a little with Xingye and Orphius at the garden own personally buy Xingye. And a little later one of the servants of Xingye walked towards her and whispered something.
Xingye : “Brothers, it seems like my Father want’s to meet the two of you. He seems curious about my Senior Brothers.”
“Heh, I was expecting this. But aren’t he too hasty, he didn’t even let us rest. Is a descendant of a high level family too attractive for the Blue Gale Sect Patriarch?”
Luo Kai : “Alright, Junior Sister lead the way. Brother let’s go.”
Orphius : “Behind you elder brother.”
The three of them walked through the Meeting Hall where the Sect Master and 7 Elders of the Blue Gale Sect were sitting. The moment they stepped they felt a heavy pressure as if the gravity itself multiplied, they had a hard time breathing and walking but they know that if they back down they might never see Xingye again. Luo Kai and Orphius’ walking speed started to slow down a bit but Xingye was fine, it was clear that the Sect Master was only putting pressure to the two of them. Xingye who was unaware of the events was confused as to why her brothers was walking a bit slowly. She thinks they are afraid of his father.
Xingye whispered to them.
Xingye : “Brothers, don’t be afraid of my father, he acts cold but he have a soft heart.”
“Soft heart my ass! He’s been putting too much pressure as if he wants to kill us. Does he not care about his daughter’s friends?!”
Orphius : “Do-don’t worry about us sister. We-we’ll follow behind. Just wa-walk on ahead.”
Luo Kai and Orphius walked a few more steps before Xingye realized what was happening. She took a clear glance again at them and realized that their expression does not seemed to be from fear but rather an expression of someone struggling, their steps are heavy and they are putting too much strength on every steps, too much strength than they should use just by walking.
Xingye : “FATHER! STOP RIGHT NOW!”
After Xingye spoke up for them, the pressure vanishes. They are breathing heavily as if they’ve been climbing a thousand foot mountain carrying stones at their back. Their arms have become numb for focusing all their strength on their foot and waist, their arms have been void of strength.
Xingye : “Brothers, are you alright?”
Luo Kai : “We’re okay Junior Sister, we’ll me and Junior Brother will remember this humiliation and return it hundredfold in the future. It won’t be long.”
Xingye : “Eldest Brother……”
Xingye showed a worried expression. She worries that something bad might happen to his father if her brothers really do take revenge. She knows how extraordinary his brothers are and that makes her worry more.
While they are busy fixing themselves a sudden a tiny but loud voice was heard from the front.
“How dare you! Who are you to say that you’ll take revenge against the Sect Master!”

* [ His referring to his sworn brothers. He views them as kids because he thinks that he’s 20 years older than them. ]
Rogue Shin : “You dare to plot a revenge when you’re just an orphan from a destroyed household! Stop spouting nonsense!”
The room was suddenly filled with killing intent, it was no ordinary killing intent, it was bloodline intent, the intent of a dragon to kill was more than enough for everyone to be wary. The mortal maids and servants either fainted or vomited blood. It was Orphius letting out his intent unintentionally after hearing Shin talk about his brother’s misfortune. Rogue Shin who have lower cultivation and overall strength than Orphius fell on the ground and wet his pants, it was as if he was facing a dragon and was about to swallow him whole. Had he not been shielded by the Blue Gale Sect Master, his Dao Heart could have shattered on the spot. He fell unconscious right after.
“Hoo! Is the the bloodline intent of a Draconian? Fascinating! It was an awe-inspiring scene to experience. I humbly apologize for what my foolish disciple have said before, he was just an immature brat spouting nonsense, please don’t mind it.

He’s physical stats are mostly on [ A ] but he’s got a high potential and luck. It’s even higher that Barlock with [ 40 ] and almost at Zordick’s level with [ 61 ].”
Luo Kai : “Of course Sect Master Xingye is right. Mistakes are meant to be forgiven.”
Klein Xinye : “Young Master Luo is indeed wise.”
Luo Kai : “Sect Master Xingye, Mistakes are forgiven, but shall not be forgotten.”
Everyone was shocked by Luo Kai’s words, it was a warning for them to not cross the line, it was not meant just for the offense of Rogue Shin but also for Klein Xingye’s offence for them earlier.
Klein Xingye : “I understand, I was indeed rude earlier. Please forgive me.”
After the mishaps, Sect Master Xingye held a banquet for the guests. Rogue Shin have also woken up and joined the banquet. They drink and eat for the whole night. They are not given liquor since they are all underage. They enjoyed the night as if nothing happened. All 3 of them missed the Imperial Token and one of their Brother’s message.
