Well this is a surprise! To think that I have been in that room for seventy years.
Do I feel out of place? Nope, not one bit.
It doesn't matter if it is seventy years or a century, as I have no one in particular waiting for me.
All my friends have passed by the time I have entered the heaven realm, and as for a life partner, I never had the time to find one in my busy life.
As I tore to a piece a meat that have been placed before me, I can't but feel a little sad.
In the end after achieving my life long dream I have no more friends left to boast about my achievement.
"Ancestor, is something bothering you?"
Mmm? the question brought me out of my thought.
I looked at the seventy something old man dressed in a simple white dress standing to my left, his hair and beard are entirely white but something about his posture makes you think he is ten years younger.
Now I think about it! the old man standing in front of me should be from the sixth generation or fifth generation.
"You, what is your name?" I asked.
the old man wore a surprised look before something dawned on him.
"I have aged too much from then, maybe this will make you remember me faster" he said as he pulled a rough aged book from his clothes.
This?! my journal!! don't tell me ..
"Little Set is that you?" i asked in astonishment.
"that's me alright.." He said with a smile.
To think that the brat is still alive...and has even achieved peak of earth stage . Still he looks; what can I say-
"You have become old" I said.
Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.
"and you have become too young, Ancestor" he countered.
So what? being young is far better than being an old man, even if it is too young.
"Speaking of which, am I to take you have successfully advanced?"
Why ask a question you know the answer to. But hehe... time to showoff.
"Listen here little Set, your Ancestor here had already stepped into the realm mentioned in legends seventy years ago..go on spread it through out the kingdom, let the kingdom know of my presence, the presence of Alister family's ancestor."
I might have gone a little overboard by announcing that I have entered the legendary stage seventy years ago.
In the end it's not entirely false as my intuition tells me I condensed my martial spirits due to my death.
From what I can guess, my martial spirits are related to samsara. Death follows life.
I who have lived twice only died once before materializing my martial spirits, thus creating a disorder in the balance of my martial spirit. But up on the second my life-force ended in my second life. It created the perfect condition for the balance needed to condense my martial spirit. Even though the balance shifted after my rebirth.
In the end it doesn't matter when I condensed it, the only thing that matters is I condensed it.
Besides this feels good. To boast about your own achievement, let them all admire and worship me, after all I deserve it. wait a minute..
"Ancestor, do I need to announce it to the kingdom? " Set said.
"On second thought, let's postpone the announcement for a little while."
I lost my composure there for a bit, to think I would announce about my breakthrough when I'am at my most vulnerable period.
The creation of the martial spirits have exhausted all the aura in my dantian.
And something is telling me, I won't be using the aura gathered from the world anymore.
"That would be for the better, Ancestor"
"So tell me about the events that I have missed out.." I asked as I cleared my throat.
It's embarrassing to talk in a dignified tone with a child's voice. No one will actually take me seriously with my current appearance. I seriously hope my body would grow up, it would be a disaster if I get stuck in the form of a child for the rest of my life.
"The current family head is the appropriate person for that Ancestor, it's embarrassing to say but I had dedicated all my past time for training.." Set trailed off as he pointed his head towards my front where a young man was seated.
The little guy must be the new family head. If I must say, he looks too young to be the family head of a large family like this.
"Tell me about it little guy" I asked the little head.
"It's an honor to meet you ancestor. I'm Tibaldo Alister, the current generation head of the family."
"Mmm.. How old are you?" I asked.
"This year I will be 22."
That's young, too young for the post.
"Ancestor you don't need to worry about his age he is a competent one." Surs said.
Ohh.. a genius i suppose.
"Hmm what about his Aura cultivation?" I asked.
"I have just cleansed my meridians" Tibaldo said.
Peak of the human stage at the age of twenty two, passable.
"Okay Tibaldo, Tell me about all the things that have happened in the last few decades, and make it detailed."
"ok the-...."
This will take a little while, I hope this would be interesting.
