Chapter 118 - The Letter

n

n

nThe one who had talked were the crimson eyes.

n

"Yes indeed, the boy is always playing around with his apparitions.

"

nOne of the six pairs of eyes in the circle around the crimson pairs said in his playful way.

nThe egos of the seven emperas didn't have faces so they couldn't express their emotions through expressions. They only had eyes and their voice, so they would use them to express their emotions regarding whatever Zhao Luo did.

nThe training that he would do, the new sword techniques that he would learn from others, the shield that he had gotten from a senior, and now the foot technique that Zhao Luo was using.

n

"At least he has pulled us out of our boredom.

"

nOther eyes also spoke as everything that Zhao Luo did was being enjoyed by then.

n

"But he is still very far from continuing the path of heavens way.

"

n

"Yes, I have realized that the cultivation of this World is 80 times slower than ours while I have found, not a single person till now who had cultivated their minds separately as the second main source of their power.

"

n

"Even the sect leader of this sect is the same.

"

nThe egos were discussing what they had seen through Zhao Luo's eyes and felt through his skin.

n

"Let's just watch. Cause that is our job. We have already tested him and he is capable enough, for the day he cultivates his body to the required level, the PAGES WILL TURN.

"

nOne of the eyes ended the debate.

nThese brownish-yellow eyes belonged to the same empera who had once down talked Zhao Luo but then after experiencing Zhao Luo's erupting potential as a Crimson Mind God, he had become closer to Zhao Luo, way more than the other egos.

nAll the egos held great expectations from Zhao Luo, which was also one of the reasons that they had never intervened in his challenges after the stair competition that was partially a joke between Zhao Luo and Mo Anna.

n

"Let's continue.

"

nThe ego of the crimson eyes told the other egos.

n---- ---- ----

nIn the dark space.

nZhao Luo was still training with his nine apparitions.

nJust like he had done in the previous training sessions, he would keep on changing his three partners.

nThe apparitions who would need time to recover will be swapped with those who were just calmly practicing on their own.

nThus by continuously practicing with his apparitions, Zhao Luo had been slowly improving his 'Half Walk'.

n

"Nothing is impossible.

"

nZhao Luo said as he pushed down his toes after raising his heel.

nZhao Luo held Blackey and Ifrit in his hands while keeping his arms wide apart. The swords made a cross over each other because of the horizontal motion of Zhao Luo's arms.

n

"Half Walk.

"

n

"Cross Slash.

"

nZhao Luo said with a straight face as he took a step towards his apparitions.

nThe distance between Zhao Luo and his three apparitions that were slightly more than 5 meters was covered with a single step.

nThe swords in Zhao Luo's hands left a big crimson and black cross

"X

" afterimage on the path that Zhao Luo had just moved along.

nWhile before Zhao Luo passed his apparitions they could only see a shadow of Zhao Luo coming at them with the two mesmerizing swords in his hands.

n

"Slash.

"

nA slashing sound wave encompassed them as the improved half walk was carried out.

n

"Hmm, this should do.

"

nZhao Luo said as the three apparitions behind him fell.

n

"I think that was the thousandth try.

"

nZhao Luo was wondering if he was able to keep up the correct count of the amount of time he had tried 'Half Walk' after failing to use the beginner level of 'The first Walk' perfectly without any internal energy.

nWhile Zhao Luo had tried his half walk about a thousand times, the other six apparitions had been freely using 'half walk' again and again as Zhao Luo had commanded them.

n

"stop.

"

nZhao Luo shouted as the apparitions were still training.

n

"Gather.

"

nZhao Luo told them and they followed his command.

nThe nine improved apparitions were standing in front of him with their heads up.

nThe apparitions felt proud that they had worked super hard.

n

"Good Job everyone.

"

nFinally, a smile emerged on the face of Zhao Luo which also led a smile to bloom on the faces of the nine apparitions.

n

"Come.

"

nZhao Luo knew that it was time to absorb them.

n'How much will my Half Walk improve? Will I be able to match the First Walk without using internal energy?'

nZhao Luo questioned in his mind while looking at the apparitions that were being absorbed by him one after another.

nAfter which, he sat on the floor of the dark space, closed his eyes, and started assimilating his absorbed apparitions.

n'Mhmm.'

n'Hmm.'

nAfter a short moment, Zhao Luo was done assimilating them into his body thus he opened his eyes and got up.

n

"Summon.

"

nZhao Luo commanded.

nThud!

nThud!

nBut this time instead of apparitions, he had summoned two square boxes.

nOne of the square boxes was five meters away while the other was ten meters away.

n'Hmph.'

nZhao Luo took a deep breath as he raised the back of his feet, that is, the heels and used more force on his toes as his body was still stationary.

nHe had taken the position to use the 'First Walk' in an instant.

nThe next moment, he took a step forward. Zhao Luo released himself like a bullet leaving the barrel of a gun.

nZhao Luo disappeared from his previous position and appeared between the two square boxes.

nThis took place in less than a second, in a single breath.

nZhao Luo looked ahead and then looked back.

nHe was closer to the square box that was placed at the 5-meter mark.

n

"7 meters is also good.

"

nZhao Luo nodded his head as his eyes shined with the current state of his 'Half Walk'.

n

"If I train like this once more I may be able to achieve the beginner level of the First walk.

"

nZhao Luo realized that the beginner level was already in his grasp as the current results had shown him a new possibility.

nThe square boxes disappeared while Zhao Luo closed his eyes.

nThe night's training was over so it was time to leave the dark space.

n'Fwoosh.'

nThe next moment he disappeared from the dark space.

nZhao Luo opened his eyes and a familiar scene welcomed his eyes.

n'The ceiling of his room.'

nZhao Luo got up from his bed and got ready to leave his hut.

n

"It's time to advance.

"

nZhao Luo told himself as today he would be leaving the trainee hall and moving towards the outer hall to become an outer disciple.

nAfter a while, Zhao Luo opened the door and left the hut.

n

"He isn't here.

"

nZhao Luo was disappointed that Wu Yang wasn't outside.

n'TsTsTrTr.'

nThe morning breeze passed him as Zhao Luo's silver hair danced over his shoulder.

nWith uneasiness in his eyes, Zhao Luo looked towards the direction where Wu Yang's hut was.

n

"I will go to him.

"

nZhao Luo started moving towards the Hut that was designated to Wu Yang.

nAfter coming outside his hut, Zhao Luo waited for quite a while but there was no sign of Wu Yang coming out of his room.

n'He must be seeping.'

nZhao Luo remembered their fight and how badly Wu Yang had gotten hurt as a result of it. That is why he thought that Wu Yang was still recuperating from his wounds.

n

"Did the healing pill not work?

"

nZhao Luo wondered as he started feeling worried for Wu Yang.

nAs Zhao Luo waited more, he felt weird.

n

"I should just check on him.

"

nZhao Luo had already made his decision as he walked towards the door of Wu Yang's room.

nCreak!

nZhao Luo opened the door and entered the room which was devoid of light.

nThe only light was coming from behind Zhao Luo.

n

"He isn't here.

"

nZhao Luo was stunned after realizing that Wu Yang wasn't in his room.

n

"Sigh.

"

nZhao Luo who was going to leave the room stopped in his tracks as something caught his eyes.

n'Tap, Tap.'

nZhao Luo took two steps towards the bed in the room and grabbed the paper that was on the bed.

n

"Did he left this here?

"

nZhao Luo wondered while looking at the blank side of the page.

nWithout thinking any further and as Wu Yang was absent Zhao Luo turned the page around and found more than just something written there.

nAre you reading this?

nThe start of the page was a question.

n

"Hell yeah, I am.

"

nZhao Luo replied with a grin thinking that it was left for somebody else.

nAfter so many years, the mission finally ended.

nI knew that you will be able to defeat me, the moment I saw you confidently facing Mite right after joining the sect.

nIt was a great time with you, my friend.

nAs you have been suddenly bestowed with a big future responsibility, I too have many things to do.

nTill we meet again, Be Ready To Taste Defeat by my Hands.

nTo Zhao Luo, The Future Sect Leader (lol) of the Xin Sect

n

"This bastard.

"

nZhao Luo was feeling multiple emotions as the page which was a letter came to an end.

n

"So he has already left the trainee hall.

"

nZhao Luo understood the situation with tears building up in his eyes as he remembered the time he had spent with Wu Yang.
