The Other Side of A Cultivation Story
Chapter 22
"Yes," the chief once again spoke. "You heard me correctly.. we are here for Shu Qai."
"And what would you need from my son?" Shu Wei asked who looked all the more confused.
He was about to decline any offer of joining any village but he didn't expect that Gale Village had something else in its mind.
It appeared that Gale Village from their initial actions that recruiting his family is not in the least of the guests' intentions. This at least made Shu Wei relaxed.
"Ahem," the other elder interrupted. "You see, our Gale Village has recently witnessed the birth of a genius."
The elder then sighed.
"Her name is Xiao Ning and she has awaken her rare 'Wood' Elemental affinity several months ago," he explained.
From that point the village chief began to narrate,
"Obviously our village has spent quite a lot just to nurture her cultivation. And right now, she is at the initial sky stage."
'What genius?' Shu Wei thought after learning her cultivation. 'If there is one genius around here, that would be my Little Qai.'
"We thought of sending her to Purple Mist Sect," the chief continued, "but we're being realistic around here."
"In our eyes, she is a genius but to a great sect, she may just be average," the other elder interjected. "If she gets accepted, she would most probably start as an outer disciple."
"Our little genius is the first in Gale Village in many years..." said the chief, "but in a big sect where the strong preys on the weak, we run the risk of losing the only thing we have... I know you know what I mean, Shu Wei."
"Indeed we need their resources," one of the elders explained, "but we need her alive all the more--she is the future of our village!"
After all is said, Shu Wei was still confused what the old fellows came for.
"Alright, alright," Shu Wei said. "I can see your point. But what has it got to do with my son?"
The three looked at each with a small grin on their faces and sighed before they shamelessly exclaimed in unison,
"We are here to offer our Xiao Ning's hand in marriage."
"Ah."
***************
At that time, Qai and Shandian were deep inside the inner region of Darkwood Forest.
Qai had no idea what was going on back home.
'Swooosh,' 'swooosh.'
'Roaaar.'
'Baaam,' 'baaam.'
He was busy hunting and gathering herbs at the same time.
"We gained a lot today, Shandian."
'Growl.'
The bonding between the two increased their power by leaps and bounds in time. And the deeper their relationship gets, the stronger their team attack becomes.
Aside from his regular tasks in the family, Qai has also several mouths to feed. The four mortal beasts he tamed have special diet. So he had to double his efforts.
But since Qai and Shandian have already reached the peak sky stage, collecting beast cores in the expert realm is relatively easy. So they hunt and at same time collect herbs along the way.
His plans for the future are no small matter. Qai knew it's just the beginning--and he's building the foundations now.
'Whew,' Qai sighed.
'Something's odd,' he said to himself.
"Shandian, I think it's time to head home."
