Light Cultivation
Eps. 8 — Jian Yes
As Jian Chen recalled, Jian Ya was one of the princesses of the previous Jian Clan Chief in office, she was very young at around 17 years old who was even younger than her mother.
Although Jian Ya's age was too young to be a clan head but he actually deserved it. Jian Ya proved that through his intelligence and strength in leading the Jian Clan this year which finally made him acceptable to the residents.
Since childhood, Jian Ya was trained directly by his grandfather who had been a champion in the martial world. The talent of Jian Ya was also very high, she could reach a certain level of her supposed age.
Now at the age of 17 years, you could say the power of Jian Ya is very strong even though it cannot be said to be the strongest in the Jian Clan.
He had great potential if he continued to train it was not even impossible that Jian Ya would become a number one swordsman, making the name of the Jian Clan even more advanced.
In another story, Jian Ya also has a soft character like women in general, not as high-hearted as being a clan leader, friendly, and easy to smile.
His good character and nature were not surprising that there were many young men who fell in love with him, not to mention that Jian Ya was very beautiful.
It was just that even though it looked perfect from any point of view, no young man dared to approach it.
The reason was very simple because Jian Ya's position was very high, the young men in the clan were self-conscious that her caste and status were very inappropriate in relation to a person like Jian Ya.
Jian Chen, who had heard this rumor through his father, was now beginning to understand that the fact was not exaggerated.
Jian Chen thought that if Jian Ya did not have the status of clan leader and focused everything in training, he might be stronger than this.
Thinking of it all made Jian Chen come to a realization, perhaps the reason the chairman of the Jian clan was killed in his previous life was because of his potential. Usually in the martial world, a talented genius would always be a threat to his enemy.
“Chen’er, anything? You see my face again, is brother that scary?” Jian Ya placed his hand in the chin, looking at Jian Chen who unblinkingly looked at him.
“Ah, maap... Junior was just a lot of thoughts.” Jian Chen was misbehaved, his face was slightly flushed because of that.
Hearing that Jian Ya laughed even though he soon turned her into a faint smile. Originally, he thought the little boy in front of him was interested in her beauty but Jian Chen's gaze was different, like there was anxiety from the look in his eyes.
‘Can this little boy be afraid of me?’ Jian Ya felt inexhaustible, he might be feared through his face.
The two men were sitting at the Pavilion table. Previously Jian Chen asked permission not to first touch the Soul Readers Ball as it waited for his father to turn back.
Jian Ya did not force it, eventually the two chose to sit right on the table of the Soul Readers Ball.
“Chen’er, do you know the history of making this Ball?” thinking because of too much silence, Jian Ya tried to tell a story and wanted to be more familiar with the little boy in front of her.
For Jian Ya it was not difficult to get along with anyone whether it was children or the elderly. For a leader like Jian Ya, communicating was extremely important.
“Junior don't know, can the chairman tell it.”
Jian Ya smiled, as expected a little boy like Jian Chen would definitely like the story he thought. Jian Ya then told the story of the Soul Reader's glass ball.
Compared to history, Jian Ya told tales and tales about glass balls that could exist.
Jian Ya was about to arouse his enthusiastic nature to Jian Chen by telling a great swordsman but the truth was not the case. Jian Chen even put on an ordinary face.
Of course Jian Chen knew that the story that Jian Ya had brought was a lie, he would not be as enthusiastic as a child because he was actually already mentally mature. Jian Chen was just pretending to listen.
“Chen’er, it looks like your father is still a long time, why don't you just touch it directly. Big brother is curious about your talent.” Jian Ya smiled, changing the subject.
Jian Chen scratched his head, looking around, he wondered why his father was so long when there was no queue in the Pavilion. Jian Chen was also unkind in refusing the request of his clan chief continuously.
“Then, thanks for the help, Chairman.” Jian Chen will not obey.
There was actually a strong reason why Jian Chen was unwilling to touch the glass ball directly. First, he knows what will happen after touching the glass ball, its light, its talent, its elements, all know.
Secondly, Jian Chen did not want to point this out in front of Jian Ya directly, he had his own reasons for this.
Since there was now no other choice, Jian Chen then touched the Soul Readers Ball, both of his hands stretched out on the glass ball.
Jian Chen smiled faintly, he did not expect more things to happen, his talent in his previous life would be the same as the current one.
When Jian Chen's palm touched it, it did not gradually take long for the Soul Reader's Ball to start reacting.
First of all, the glass ball vibrates so much that the table below it vibrates. The glass ball slowly turned into a dim golden light, so dim that it flickered like a distant night star.
‘It turns out the same..’ Jian Chen muttered softly, he knew this would be the reaction when he touched the Soul Readers Ball.
Before long Jian Chen was testing his talent, Jian Wu had just come. He was startled by Jian Chen who was with someone who was well-respected, not to mention that his son had now touched the Soul Readers Ball.
But the most surprising of all was that the glass ball faction which was now golden in color, Jian Wu had only first seen the Soul Readers Ball could be colored like that.
It was not only Jian Wu who was shocked but Jian Ya as well, the girl was even more fixated on looking at him. He did not expect that Jian Chen had anything rare on him mainly because of the color of the light ball.
“Chen’er is this really your Element?” Jian Ya opened her mouth in disbelief at what she saw.
Jian Chen let go of his hand, he smiled awkwardly. That was not what the clan head had to say but rather the dimness of the light of the ball. Jian Chen had low talent.
“Hail chief...” Jian Wu immediately approached and introduced himself, he saluted the clan head first. He stood beside Jian Chen.
“Ah, are you Chen’er's father?” Jian Ya asked.
“This... yes, he is my son.”.
Jian Ya pointed at the glass ball Soul Reader “The color on your son's glass ball was gold, it was something rare even in this Eastern Continent. I never saw it but I know what it means. Jian Chen had the Light Element.”.
“Chairman, is this a bad thing?” Jian Wu was somehow anxious to see the expression of the clan head.
“Not like that, Light Element is an element that is hard to find by millions of humans though. Usually who has it not from just anyone let alone in a middle-sized Clan place like this.”
Jian Ya sighed, looking at Jian Wu again. “Is Chen’er really from the Jian Clan?”
Hearing that Jian Wu fell silent, he could not immediately answer him. Only Jian Chen knew the meaning of his father's expression.
Jian Chen already knew about it in the two letters he had met from his parents when the Jian Clan had been destroyed. Other than discussing his crystal necklace as well about himself, Jian Chen was not the biological son of his master.
