n“Please, enter.” the same quiet voice rang, and the doors in front of them opened on their own.
nThey revealed a completely different world within. It was like a world within a world. Liu Feng looked at this with his mouth agape.
n“Don’t tell me, did you manage to make another world within this one?” he asked, looking above, where the sky was visible. The sun was shining bright, and the bright blue sky shone upon this segment that seemed to come out of a forest.
nThere were small creeks, grass, trees, pebbles, and most importantly, a cave at the other end. Liu Feng’s eyes locked on an old man who was sitting cross legged right in front of the cave, on the ground.
n“This is not a world. It is an illusion. A runic illusion, so it is a little hard to catch.” Liu Man said.
nThe old man looked at the two who had entered, and his mouth curved slightly. He slowly got up, and started walking towards Liu Man.
n“It is my honor to be the guardian of the White Tiger Cave in the generation that the White Tiger himself has descended into the world. Truly an honor.” the old man bowed in front of Liu Man.
n“So many things have changed in this world. It looks like human greed has no bounds. As I expected, outside of the Forest of Dreams, the entire landscape has changed, and the White Tiger Cave has supremacy here.” Liu Man said.
n“Forgive us, My Lord. I can only hope to apologize for a few decisions that the ancestors before me have taken. This cave is untouched, ready to meet its true owner.” the ancestor said respectfully.
n“This is not the time for me to be resting in a world of my own design. There are things that I must do. Where are the boundary stones? I need two of them.” Liu Man said.
n“The boundary stones?” the old man paused for a second, and in that momentary hesitation, Liu Feng caught a sign of guilt.
n“What did you do with the boundary stones? There are more than enough, and you cannot use all of them.” Liu Man asked, his voice raising.
n“Forgive us, My Lord. We did not know that you were descending this generation. Of the ten boundary stones that we did mine this century, only three remain, but all of them were given away. They are the final rewards for the martial gathering that is underway.” the ancestor said, looking away.
n“Good. Very good. You are giving them away. I should have expected this.” Liu Man heaved.
n“This martial gathering. Can’t we just join it? A martial gathering is a collection for the young generation is it not? How hard will it be to win?” Liu Feng asked.
n“It is a collection for the young ones indeed. But only those below the age of twenty-five are allowed. I am afraid that I cannot allow the young generation to get bullied like this. I will try to talk with the sect leader and make sure that out younger generation will go in and win for your stead.” the ancestor said.
n“That is unnecessary. I am not sure if you have a young one in the Soul Evolution Stage.” Liu Man shook his head.
n“I can participate. I mean, I don’t look like I am twenty five, do I?” Liu Feng chuckled.
n“Some Xiantian experts choose to alter their appearances with Qi. In the Soul Evolution Stage, it is even more perfect. But maintaining it takes effort. Maybe this old man here mistook you for one of those people.” Liu Man chuckled.
n“I am just eighteen, senior. I am more than qualified to enter the martial gathering of yours. And I need to get out of here at any cost. I cannot imagine staying here for whatever time you need to mine another boundary stone for us.” Liu Feng shuddered.
n“You are just eighteen?” the ancestor jolted.
n“Indeed. His talent even frightens me. As for me, my bone age should say that I am less than twenty five as well. We will go fight for our boundary stones then. It will be a good experience, letting Liu Feng fight someone who isn’t a monster.” Liu Man chuckled.
nLiu Feng inadvertently touched his right eye, where a scar lay. Just thinking back to what happened, he trembled. The frightening situations that he had to undergo the last year and a half were unspeakable, and he almost died many times.
n“It should be easy taking care of someone who is around the same age as me.” Liu Feng said without hesitation.
n“As you wish, My Lord. I will make preparations for the two of you to enter the martial gathering. You shall be the young masters of the White Tiger Cave.” the ancestor nodded.
n“Well then. You have completed your task as the guardian. Leave me alone for a while. I want to go into the cave.” Liu Man said.
nThe old man nodded. He started walking towards the exit, and he stopped next to Liu Feng.
n“Let the lord have his privacy.” the ancestor said.
n“Don’t worry. There is no privacy between the two of us. Too much time between us ensured it.” Liu Feng chuckled.
n“Do you dare say that you are the same as the great White Tiger?” the ancestor clenched his fists, and Liu Feng felt a pressure build up next to him.
n“Leave him. He is right. There are no secrets between us. We are truly equal. Leave us alone.” Liu Man said, and the old man immediately relaxed his pressure.
n“Forgive me for the impudence, My Lord. I will make sure that it does not happen again. But to think that you would form a contract! What happened for you to take such a drastic measure?” the ancestor asked.
n“I had to form the contract to survive. You needn’t know more. Leave us.” Liu Man waved his hands, but his eyes did not leave the cave even once.
