The Despair of Patriarch Long Yan

“Long Guan get here fast!" long Hai said as he shouted loudly towards Long Guan.

Long Hai's voice made Long Guan flinch in shock.

“Do they suspect me of stealing the sight of the Long Clan they trained?” inner Long Guan while walking towards the place where they were practicing.

“Hai Long Guan, I noticed you were watching us train, do you want me to teach you some Long” Clan moves? long Hai said to Long Guan who was staring question mark.

“Is that Really Long Hai?” long Guan asked hesitantly.

“Of course it is true, I will teach you the punching and sword techniques. But you must call me teacher first as the main requirement. Ha ha ha...” Long Hai replied with a loud laugh followed by the other disciples.

Long Guan's face instantly flushed red and his fists clenched, Long Hai's ridicule made him furious.

“Long Hai what are you saying? You are not worthy to be my teacher, do not dream of you!!” snapped Long Guan who did not accept himself was humbled.

“Yes that is only if you want to, if nothing is okay. It would be a huge waste of time and energy considering your extremely slow cultivation ability" Long Hai sneered.

"How vain is the Qi of vitality that the Patriarch has given you, if it was me then I would have already been at the Qi Foundation realm and become a true genius in the Qin” Empire Long Hai continued with a haughty tone and a sneering smile.

Hearing Long Hai's words, Long Guan's heart ached and remembered the sacrifice of Patriarch Long Yan who had sacrificed so much towards Long Guan's survival.

“The effect of toxic blows is difficult to remove, the agonizing cold makes me cramp and feel like dying, he said, I don't know how long I can live by relying on the Patriarch”'s abilities thought the helpless-looking Long Guan before Long Hai and the other disciples of the Long clan disciples.

Resisting his frustration, Long Guan stepped away leaving the training hall towards the backyard of the Long Clan.

From a distance, Long Huan watched the event with a face. He seemed to be seriously practicing and did not know Long Hai's taunts to Long Guan.

“Mampus only you Long Guan, rather than just being a thorn that blocks me later in the” said Long Huan's plan while continuing his training.

At the same time Long Huan took out her ability.

“Dragon Blow Splitting Mountain!”

Shouted Long Huan who was accompanied by a rumbling sound from the training hall.

Disciple murmured in awe, the effect of the move was able to crush large stones into small flakes.

“Excellent, great .. very great” said Long Hai full of admiration to see the greatness of the style that has been issued by Long Huan.

There was pride on Long Huan's face.

“You can see for yourself, right? I am not the trash of the Long Clan, I am the real genius who deserves the attention of the Patriarch” Long Huan said in a raised tone.

“Yes right Young master is a true genius, we are proud of young master” timpal some disciples while clapping.

As for Long Guan not knowing what was happening in the training hall, he already felt annoyed and did not care anymore towards them.

But unbeknownst to Long Guan, Shu Mingyu, her fiance who had been betrothed to him, had been flirting with Long Huan.

Shu Mingyu thought that Long Guan would not be as brilliant as Long Huan, as the daughter of the elder of the Shu family of course Shu Mingyu very much hoped that his family would thrive and gain a firmer foothold in the city of Clouds.

Arriving in the backyard of the Long Clan, Long Guan appeared to be sitting pensively on the edge of the courtyard bordering the precipitous ravine separating the Eternal Fog mountain range from the Long Clan settlement.

“Why are you daydreaming Guan’er?” the words of someone broke the Long Guan daydream which turned out to be his grandfather Patriarch Long Yan who had come to approach him.

“Greetings dear grandfather” greet Long Guan while bowing down towards the Patriarch.

“Grandfather, I was thinking about the state of this body, I felt useless because it always troubled grandfather from a young age, to this day I have not been able to return all the good wishes of grandfather” said Long Guan while holding back miserably.

Patriarch Long then hugged him and said.

“What you think is a big mistake, grandfather's happiness is to see you stay alive, grandfather once lost both of your parents and that is the biggest regret in grandfather's life.

Grandfather will continue to work on increasing strength and finding resources to heal you, therefore you do not have to worry” said the Patriarch while rubbing Long Guan's head.

The warmth and genuine affection from his grandfather made Long Guan back excited and determined to heal. In his heart he was determined to repay his grandfather's merit as well as raise the Long Clan which the past few years had hampered because the Patriarch was too focused on the process of self-healing Long Guan without regard to the improvement of his personal cultivation base.

“Grandfather, is there no other way to heal this deep wound?” asked Long Guan with a face full of question marks.

“Actually there are two paths, the first is by flowing the Qi of holy vitality, but only the ancestors of the Long Clan are able to achieve that power. Another way is to use the Nine Dragons style, but unfortunately the style has not been passed down to the Long family.

The Book of the Nine Dragons had long since disappeared and had yet to be discovered. If only grandfather mastered the Nine Dragons style, of course, grandfather will definitely cure you”, Patriarch Long Yan said desperately.

This despair was indeed natural, as the Nine Dragons scripture had long since disappeared and caused the abilities of the Long Clan to be unable to match the founding ancestor of the Clan.

While Long Guan only nodded lightly a sign of understanding his grandfather's difficulty and helplessness.

"Did our family not avenge the deaths of my parents?" asked Long Guan curiously.

"The problem is not as simple as you imagine, at the time of the incident there were no eyewitnesses so that their actions can be closed neatly. In addition, it also involves two kingdoms so it takes very careful action. But grandfather is sure, our family will one day rise. Ancestors once said that every thousand years the Long Clan would give birth to a genius capable of restoring the glory of the past” Patriarch Long said with an excited look.

“Good grandfather, I promise to stay alive and realize grandfather's ideals, bring the rise of the Long Clan and become a strong and virtuous cultivator said Long Guan really.

“Good, good it's just Long Fan's son, your spirit reminds me of your father. In addition to your good looks inheriting him, your determination is also strong like your father. Promise me you stay up and listen to the advice of grandpa”

patriarch Long's request to Long Guan.

“Of course grandfather, I promise I will not disappoint grandfather and father, someday I will stand tall over the horizon of the Qin Empire. I will also prove to the people who have harmed my parents that they were wrong and deserve the punishment that is worth”, Long Guan said.

Long Guan's gaze was so sharp that there was a hidden strength within his body, the Patriarch who witnessed this slightly shuddered in horror at the determined gaze of his grandson.
