Chapter 65 Lilia’s Past Circumstances
n
n
nWhile looking at her son’s calm face, she couldn’t help but remember all the difficulties she had to go through before reaching the happiness she has now.
nAll the hatred Lilia had towards her family made her develop a heart demon which resulted in the situation of her almost dying when she was giving birth, Aster saved her in more than one way, although she had affection for Alice as her mother with Aster it was a deeper and more intimate feeling.
nShe was forced by the patriarch which was her father to give birth to a male heir to represent her family branch since only men can be candidates for the patriarch position, originally her father tried to arranged a marriage for her with the son of a friend of him but she refused to the point of threatening his father to abandon the family if he insisted on that.
nEven if she was outstanding on the younger generation her cultivation was still far behind her father’s one but fortunately, she had a pair of good friends which she considered sisters, they sided with her and of course their backings were more than happy to welcome such a young talent like Lilia without any conditions which acted as a deterrent.
nHowever, her father was ready to start a fight over the matter because his only descendant was Lilia and he needed an heir, after being pressed by her family they reached an agreement, she was free to do it the way she wanted but she had to give birth to a male descendant which will be prepared to inherit the patriarch position.
nLuckily for Lilia the female ancestor of one of her friends was a powerful array master, after being asked to by Lilia’s friend the old woman gave Lilia an array that could be engraved on a woman’s body and its function was to use the blood of a male to create offspring without the need of sex.
nHer father suggested to use the blood of a distant relative to maintain a strong bloodline on the child or use the blood of the guy he tried to marry her off, to form a family bond with his friend, of course Lilia despised her father so his opinions were ignored.
nAfter hearing from someone she trusted, about a family which bloodline was said to strengthen any innate talents, she left her clan to search for a descendant of that family which turned out to be the Wolfsteins, more specifically Isaac Wolfstein.
nAlthough she miscalculated the result of the mixture of her bloodline with the Wolfstein’s one, she had a quite strong inheritance which could be deduced for the fact that she had both black hair and red eyes and that was also amplified by Isaac’s blood, which made the baby unable to resist his own power.
nThat’s were Aster interfered, by using his origin blood to help Lilia stabilize her cultivation so she could safely give birth, during that moment Lilia was able to she felt her son’s strong protective instincts and that made her change her way of seeing things, all the hate she used to had transformed into the most purest love for her son thus elminating her heart’s demon.
nAfter all that how could she give away her dear son to be used by her family, instead she decided to no let her father treat him as a political tool, besides he didn’t have the Drage bloodline characteristics which would have made him suffer if she were to return to her clan while her son couldn’t protect himself.
nNo matter what place or age one lives in, in this cultivation world the most important thing is strength so even if Aster did not have the characteristics of the Drage, he would be respected as long as his cultivation was outstanding, in the worst-case scenario if he didn’t have talent for cultivation, they could always seek refuge on the forces that backed her good sisters, that’s why she was working hard to recover her cultivation.
nBut now she realized that was not the case, having reached the earth origin realm at almost eight years old was a great achievement but it is something that others might be able to do with the help of pills although their base will be unstable, on the other hand comprehending sword intent at such a young age was enough to consider her beloved son a … little monster.
nShe was curious because it was obvious her son was hiding something, after all even if he acted as a little child on a daily basis, sometimes his words or actions seemed more mature than his age which made her worry a bit first but after evaluating him and seeing that it was not something bad, Lilia decided to wait until he willingly tells her everything.
nAster was enjoying the warm water of the bathtub and the soft feeling of his mother’s body when he heard distant knocking sounds, the barrier only avoided those who were outside from listening and seeing things but the people inside could see and hear whatever was happening outside.
nThe only one in the castle who might dare to come to the area where they lived without being asked to was Isaac, Aster remembered the way he looked at Lilia before and he decided to teach him a lesson.
n“Mom wait here I will go to see what they want”.
nLilia saw her son’s smiling expression and she knew he was up to something but she allowed him to do what he wanted.
n“Fine, once you come back, we’ll eat something ok?”.
nAster nodded, he got out of the bathtub and covered himself from the waist down with a towel before leaving the bathroom.
n————————
nIsaac was having a bad day, a moment ago he was calmly cultivating in his room when suddenly the spiritual energy went crazy which made him suffer a little deviation thus damaging his meridians a bit and making all his work from the past two months of cultivation go to waste, the worst thing was that he couldn’t find the source of the phenomenon that messed with him.
nAfter some contemplation he decided to use this weird situation as an excuse to go and try to speak with Lilia, although he already understood that she will never pay him attention on her own, he could still enjoy the view, but when he reached the area where she lived there was a barrier that blocked his way.
n“What the hell is wrong with this? it looks quite durable”, after admiring the barrier he knocked on the door and waited for Lilia to come out, he saw the door opening and he was about to greet her with some courteous phrases but when he saw who opened the door the words got stuck in his throat.
n————————
nAster didn’t bother to put on clothes, he directly went to see who was knocking with only a towel covering the lower half of his body, once he opened the door, he saw Isaac standing there with an uncomfortable expression on his face and he knew his supposition was correct but he still asked.
n“What is the problem?”.
nIsaac came out of his daze hearing that kid ruthlessly asking him something, he felt a bit insulted to not receive any respect but he decided to tolerate it this time.
n“Where is Li… your mother?”, for a moment Isaac wanted to make the kid in front of him think that he was close to his mother calling her by her name but then he remembered that Lilia sometimes beat him up by no apparent reason so he didn’t want to push his luck.
nAster internally smiled but he calmly answered.
n“Mom is still on the bathroom, if you need something you can tell me and I will pass the message”, Aster choose his words to make evident the fact that he was taking a bath with Lilia and telling Isaac that he will pass the message was the same as telling Isaac that Lilia will not speak with him.
nIsaac gritted his teeth, he wasn’t stupid enough to not be able to read between the lines and he felt humiliated, this kid basically told him to ** off and what was worse was that even if he was Lilia’s son, he looked a bit too old to still be taking baths with her.
nSeeing Isaac getting angry Aster decided to put the last nail in his coffin, he put on a ridiculing smile before saying.
n“If there is nothing then I will return to the bathroom, bye”.
nThe moment he finished speaking, Isaac lost it, his spiritual pressure radiated which made the floor under his feet to crack, Aster felt as if suddenly his weight augmented but the difference was too little to actually be a burden to him.
nHe decided to ask Lilia about it later because normally the pressure emitted by someone who is above of you in cultivation should work as a way to attack others but he didn’t seem to be affected by it.
nWhen Isaac saw the ridiculing smile on Aster’s face and the fact that he was still standing ignoring his cultivation pressure he almost burst a blood vein on the spot but then he remembered the barrier and after slowly calming down he turned around and left while thinking.
n“Just wait a couple of years, you are death meat kid”.
nAster saw him leaving and he thought “how could I not notice your intentions towards my precious mother… but I wonder what will your face be if you knew what I did with her before hahaha”, as he was about to return to the bathroom when he noticed a strange gray mist coming out of Isaac’s body which was being absorbed by him.
n“What the hell is this”.
