The Destiny of the Demon Sword
Grandpa's story and anxiety
General Zhang went straight back to his room to see the state of his grandson, very slowly General Zhang opened the door and entered it slowly.
"Till my grandson, where are you son?" He said looking for the whereabouts of his grandson even though he could actually find out with his abilities.
The orange hiding behind the wooden bed crawled out and ran to hug his grandfather.
Her tears flowed out of fear of losing someone who loved her so much.
Grandfather Zhang returned his embrace by clutching him so tightly, letting Orange vent his grief.
"Are you a little quiet now?" Grandpa Zhang asked as he gently rubbed his grandson's back.
Orange nodded his head then looked at grandfather Zhang with a heartfelt carved smile.
"Do you want to eat?" His grandfather asked.
Orange shook his head, instead of not being hungry, he felt like he wanted to continue in his grandfather's arms.
"Can grandfather tell the journey of grandfather's life so far, I want to hear it" pinta Jingga who is curious about his grandfather's life story, even though he actually wants to continue in his grandfather's arms.
Grandfather Zhang looked at him seriously until a moment later he blew his breath away, as if throwing all the weight on his shoulders.
"It won't be enough to tell your grandfather's story even if you hear it all day, grandfather will only tell a story that you can teach, but the final decision is of course you yourself who will sort and choose it" grandpa Zhang said he started the story.
Furthermore, Zhang's grandfather told many stories that could be used as supplies for the future of his grandson.
Many important points were conveyed by him, Orange who was so serious to listen continued to nod, although almost everything he did not understand but he will continue to remember it throughout the course of his life later.
"Grandfather, from the grandfather story that I do not understand the most is about cultivation, does the power that grandfather has ever shown come from cultivation? Then will I be able to cultivate like grandfather? What is the cultivation realm?" Questions were asked directly to his grandfather.
If not his grandson, Zhang's grandfather might have left him immediately, but he continued to patiently respond.
"You're this, once asked directly through the whole thing" grunted Grandpa Zhang pretending to be annoyed at him.
"Sorry" that's the only word that comes out of his grandson's mouth.
"Alright, but remember for the rest you will know for yourself in the future" Zhang's grandfather reminded.
The orange nodding its head approves.
"Yes, what you saw from grandfather was the strength of a cultivator.
While cultivation is spiritual power that comes from natural energy, cultivation, soul crystal core as well as alchemy.
You yourself can become a cultivator as long as you have a dent as a reservoir of energy channeled through the meridian-point
and the last thing about the cultivation level realm, basically every cultivator starts from the qi gathering, formation and refinement stage of the essential qi.
For the level of its own realm each continent differs in its denunciation.
The highest realm that grandfather knew was the superior emperor, it was the realm of legends that only god kings and demon kings had, all this time not a single human could achieve.
Is that clear enough for you, my granddaughter?" After explaining at length, Grandfather Zhang asked back.
Orange scratched his head, wanted to ask again but was afraid not to because it had been reminded. He could only hear it.
Grandfather Zhang certainly understood what his granddaughter's countenance showed, as stroking his beard Grandfather Zhang conveyed the last thing to his granddaughter.
"There is a legend from an ancient book that is told to mention that the highest level of cultivators are not to have cultivation" he said.
Orange eyes widened to hear him, it was hard to believe what his grandfather said.
Orange immediately pouted puffing cheeks at his grandfather who laughed at him.
"Who is the one at the highest level?" Tanya Jingga ventured.
"Haha finally you ask too, he is the ruler of the universe, but his existence is considered a myth until now" Grandpa Zhang replied ending a long chat with his grandson Jingga.
"The ruler of the universe yes, hmm" his inner murmur was so curious about the truth about him.
Unknowingly, Zhang's grandfather had left him.
"Come Cu, we'll have dinner" his grandfather invited him from a distance.
Orange immediately realized his grandfather was no longer near him.
"Grandfather!" His grunts then went to the dining room following his grandfather.
The dinner was the same as the usual day, after finishing eating Grandpa Zhang did not directly return to his room, he walked out of the ship enjoying the gentle gusts of the night breeze and the stars twinkling in the sky.
"Grandfather" call for an orange that follows his grandfather behind.
Grandpa Zhang turned to him and told him to go back to the room with the excuse of wanting to be alone first.
The orange just nodded then returned to his room alone.
"Unusually grandfather like that, I should know what grandfather is thinking, I will wait for him" muttered Orange while sitting cross-legged waiting for his grandfather.
Outside the ship, the commanders came to Grandpa Zhang, they felt that something was sticking up for him.
"General, what is your burden is our burden as well" said Captain Lin Fang, who was taken in by another captain who came to accompany the General.
"Thank you for your attention, captains, I have never felt so relieved and anxious in my entire life at the same time as I am today.
I was relieved to have told many of my stories as provisions for my grandchildren, but I was anxious as if the story was the end of my life story, that is how I feel right now" General Zhang said.
The commanders were speechless at what General Zhang had said, not a single one could give an opinion.
The atmosphere became silent because of it, General Zhang and the commanders were drifting in the roar of the waves in the ocean and the night wind was pounding incessantly.
The night was getting late, the commanders who were shrouded in drowsiness did not dare to leave their generals.
The General realized what his commanders felt and invited them back into the ship to rest.
Arriving inside the room, Grandpa Zhang was surprised to see his grandson still sitting cross-legged waiting for him.
"My grandson, why don't you sleep?" Grandpa Zhang's reprimand felt guilty.
"I was deliberately waiting for grandfather" he replied.
"Let's sleep" invited Zhang's grandfather who immediately sat beside Orange.
Orange then rested his head on his grandfather's chest.
Rubbing his grandson's head, Zhang's grandfather told him what had happened to him.
Orange released his grandfather's embrace, staring closely at his grandfather's wrinkled face closely.
"Grandfather can't say that, I don't want to be abandoned again by the people I love" said Jingga as she broke her tears of power to hold back the sadness.
"Grandfather will always be there to raise you my grandson, you don't have to worry" he replied as he wiped the orange tears with his finger.
