Chapter 2 The past is what shapes the future
Weylin glanced at the others, before he looked down at his fist that was lightly clenched, closing his eyes he took a soft breath, than he opened his eyes and looked at others and said,” you all should be aware that I have been hiding my strength, it's not that I didn't want to tell you, but I know how Father's clan works, if they found out about my abilities, they would have forced me to leave and believe me when I say, they would have to walk over my corpse, I absolutely despise my clan.” In a serious and firm tone.
Hearing this everyone was stupefied, especially Weylin's father getting a little angry he said,” brat what makes you say that? My clan is apart of your heritage, and both your and my position in the clan isn't small, we may not be apart of the faction that currently leads the clan, but we have the original clan masters blood in our veins, they would never touch you or force you to leave.”
Nodding their heads everyone agreed.
Laughing coldly, Weylin said,” hmm is that so? Than if they found out who my Mother really is, would they still spare her life along with her children, would you if they told you to kill us?”
Weylin's father was severely taken aback, the others were like wise shocked especially his mother, who felt like she was struck by lightning.
Carter furiously yelled,” Weylin!! what are you saying, I would never hurt your mother or you kids, and why would the clan act out against your mother in the first place.”
Looking into his father's eyes, Weylin said an emotionless voice,” I'm sure you know about how Mother's clan was destroyed, who do you think did it, a stranger passing by?” while mocking him at the end.
As if everyone was hit by lighting, they stood there in a daze, looking blankly at Weylin.
Alice not being able to take it anymore yelled,” Weylin my clan being destroyed was a disaster indeed, but why would the Heavenly Thunder Clan be the ones who caused it? Furthermore, if this was true why have I not have noticed anything, I may have been a child but I would have noticed if someone from the Heavenly Thunder Clan, had caused it, or had anything to with it, I could never forget what happened that day for all eternity.”
Nodding his head Weylin said,” of course this is the way it should be, but remember what the specialty of your clan was? Souls! It wasn't called the Soul Shattering clan for nothing, even with all the strength of the Heavenly Thunder clan, would they be able to destroy it?”
Suddenly understanding what he was saying, Alice started to breath rapidly and asked hurriedly,” are you saying that someone from my clan betrayed us? No! Never, our clan was very close, and we would never betray one another.” She stated firmly.
Looking at her with pitying eyes Weylin said,” like I said earlier your clan specialized in the soul, making you forget or change the events of a certain event, would be easy for an expert on a child.”
As if she had realized something her eyes glazed over, and was about to say something when Weylin said while looking complacent,” enough, I only told this to you today because things are changing, and I wanted you to be wary of the clan, I know that Dad is a major part of the clan and trusts it explicitly, but by no means should you talk about who you are, if the main clan elders found out who you are, they will only bring trouble along with them.”
Sighing softly Alice said,” if that's the case than I will be careful, whether I believe you or not is another story, but you are my son, and I believe in you.”
With a complicated gaze, Carter asked Weylin,” why are you now speaking of this, and why not tell us sooner, if what your saying is true, than doesn't that mean Alice you and the kids are in danger? In fact why are you acting like this at all, your usually a quiet child, if you were hiding your strength for so long why reveal it now, and in such a fashion.”
The others hearing this nodded, to them, Weylin has always been a very well mannered child, and very warm to others, today is the first time he has acted like this, and said such sharp words, the fact that he hid his strength is also very surprising, to them it was like meeting Weylin for the first time.
Smiling slightly Weylin said in a warm tone,” The past is what shapes the future, everything I have done to this day, was in preparation for what is to come, hiding my strength was necessary to go unnoticed, I didn't say anything about Mom's clan because with your current strength, there is nothing you can do about it, the only reason I told you some of it now, was to be wary of the clan, one day I will explain everything to you, until that day you just need to be cautious and believe that everything I do, is to protect you.
Sighing inwardly Weylin said to himself,” I want to tell them everything, but after I searched her soul, telling them everything would be a mistake, and would put them in danger, as they say ' ignorance is bliss,' telling them this much was already too much.
The others had a serious expression on their faces, especially the adults, today has just been too bizarre, first Weylin showed up out of nowhere and just using his physical strength, destroyed a tree that even a steel ax wouldn't even leave a dent on.

Next he started talking about his mother's clan being destroyed and the ones that caused it was the clan they were apart of, this left them feeling shocked and mortified, they felt inclined to ask him how he learned all this, but after listening to his speech decided against it, if everything he said was true, than they were better off not knowing.
And last, they found out that the reason he is acting like this, is because what's happening tomorrow, seeing him speak so confidently it's as if he knows what's going to happen, and has been preparing for it for years, if that's true he is simply a monster! One must remember he is only eleven years old, thinking this far, their bodies shuddered a little.
Seeing their expressions, Weylin said,” I know that that your are curious about what is happening tomorrow, but don't be worried, in fact it should be beneficial to all of you, especially Emily, but for me it means the beginning of something very important.”
Not giving them any time to talk, he continued saying,” Emily let's go, I need to talk to you about something.”
Weylin walked over and gave Julian a hug, before walking over to the confused Emily and holding her hand while walking away, seeing his shadow disappear, Alice and the others sighed, before having a complicated smile appear on their faces, today has just been so weird, they thought.
Weylin and Emily continued to walk for over an hour, heading up the mountain face, Emily still very young couldn't handle the difficult climb, and was being carried by Weylin on his back, despite being very tired she was hugging him tightly, with a smile on her face.
After walking for a while, he suddenly stopped and looking around, he could see a plateau half a mile wide with a lake in the center surrounded by trees, next to the lake was a shabby hut walking next to the lake he put the little girl on the ground, and stared into the distance while holding her delicate hand, that was as smooth as jade.
Breathing softly he sat down cross legged, he pulled Emily into his embrace sitting on his lap, lightly putting his hands around her waist, and his chin on her head, she leaned into his embrace and giggled cutely.
Both gazed into the lake that was shining brightly, it was a very picturesque scene.
Both of them sat there for a long time, neither was talking, they just enjoyed the quiet moment with each other, both of them breathed softly, matching the others breath.
After awhile Weylin's eyes sparkled a little before sighing inwardly, he said to himself,” I guess it's time to tell her, I hope she doesn't get too upset.”
Speaking softly he said,” Emily, do you know why I brought you up here?”
Emily shook her head, she was really confused, he has never brought her here before.
Saying somewhat sadly,” because Big Brother will be leaving, and once I'm gone this place will be yours.”
Emily hearing this was shocked and immediately jumped and yelled,” Brother is leaving!? Why!?”
As if he had expected this, Weylin smiled softly stood up and put his hand on Emily's head and said,” little girl, I can't stay here forever, and I won't be leaving for a few years, I'm only telling you know, so you can get used to the idea, and can slowly come to accept it.”
Looking at her intently he said,” do you understand?”
With small tears in her eyes she nodded.
Poking her forehead with his index finger, he said,” besides it won't be immediately, we have all that time to be together, and it will be fun, I know that you admire Dad's swordsmanship, but that will only get you so far, so how about I personally train you from now on?”
Hearing this the little girl was surprised and immediately, became happy again, without hesitation nodding her continuously.
Laughing he thought to himself,” I technically am a couple thousand years old, but after coming to this world, I came to realize strength is everything, as much as I would love to stay here with my family, this is the best time for growth, I mustn't squander it, in 3 years after Emily has acquired enough strength I will leave, and she will in turn teach my other siblings what I have taught her, I just hope that Dad doesn't do anything foolish, I don't need to worry about the others, both Aunt and Uncle care for Mom me and my siblings too much, as for Dad he has dedicated his life for the clan, in the end I don't know which one he would choose, family or those fools.” as he said this to himself a cold glint shown in his eyes, with a small amount of killing intent.
In another part of the world, a constant blizzard was blowing, in the center of this storm was an area with the circumference of a few hundred miles what was strange was that despite the harsh weather, in this area it was lush and warm making it a very bizarre sight.
Even though the are was huge not many buildings were there, but for the buildings that were built they magnificent, standing a few stories tall, they were made out of a peculiar metal that emitted a cold air, and frigid aura.
The most spectacular building was in the middle surrounding the buildings, and was a massive castle, that stood erect and could be seen miles away, the building was shining blue like it was made out of ice.
Standing on a balcony over looking all this was small girl around the age of 10 or 11, she had dark lush hair, pearly white skin that seemed to shine, and her eyes were a bright emerald green that seemed to glow in the night.
She had a frigid aura surrounding her, and had an incomparably cold look in her eyes, she had a veil covering her face and wore a white gown with hints of blue on it making her look holy and pure.
Walking behind her was a women in her early 30's, that was absolutely stunning, looked at the small child in front of her, her usually stoic and cold face smiled slightly giving a proud smile and said tenderly,” Lilian, it's time to leave, we need to head to the portal to leave if you want to make it on time.”
Lilian hearing this nodded, and without anyone seeing it, smiled warmly and murmured sweetly to herself saying,” it's been 11 years, I finally found you, from now on nothing can separate us.”
