Lian's grandfather told Tang Hao about his past. During the story, there was no sadness from the look on Grandpa Lian's face as if the old geezer had accepted his fate to be like this.
Tang Hao was amazed by Lian's grandfather's story and his grandfather's fortitude. He saw that Lian's grandfather was not only strong in terms of physical strength, but also strong in terms of fortitude.
Tang Hao took a lot of lessons from Lian's grandfather's story.
"Love, it's the most absurd thing wherever you are. Choose those who really love you, if you turn your back on them, your back will be safe, and if you leave it, your property will be fine. The treasure of a loved one is the honor of the one he loves."
"One day you will understand how important it is to find someone who truly loves you, who truly accepts you without coercion, without fear, without any frills of possessions or power. If you have found someone like that, then hold him firmly, stand beside him no matter what happens to him." Lian's grandfather gave Tang Hao encouragement based on his life experience.
"You know, the experience people say are the best teachers. Grandfather shared this bitter experience because grandfather does not want you to experience the same thing with grandfather. Grandfather is not sincere if you experience something like this. The universe may be cruel, but he is just doing what should have happened. We can only make the best use of time and energy so that if the universe acts, we are prepared with all the consequences and unexpected things of our choice or not our choice."
Tang Hao nodded surely at every piece of advice Lian's grandfather gave him. Tang Hao looked at Grandfather Lian's eyes filled with bitterness and long experience. His chest was as tight as a huge rock squeezing his chest upon hearing Lian's entire grandfather story. He clenched his hands and was determined that one day he would retaliate tenfold to the man who hurt his grandfather. Even if that person was the Emperor of Heaven, the strongest person in the universe.
"There's no need to hate other people Hao'er, grandfathers like this because of grandfather's own fault and grandfather accepted this fate as it is. Grandfather knows, despite hating someone to the ribs, but what's the point? Grandfather would only feel pain and pain every time he remembered that hatred." Grandfather Lian patted Tang Hao on the shoulder and gave a warm smile. Grandfather Lian knew when he saw Tang Hao's eyes that were suddenly filled with a great killing appetite, that his grandson would avenge him later.
It's just that Lian's grandfather didn't want this one-of-a-kind grandson to be someone vindictive, to be someone who possessed a destructive soul. Because revenge itself is fundamentally destructive.
"Hao'er, you should know that you are the sole heir to the grandfather in this world. And I'm sure, your parents wherever they are, must be waiting for you to come. Your life is not just yours, your loved ones deserve your life. Especially your parents.
"Your word, wanting to live long until death cannot pick you up, therefore do not have to interfere too much in the affairs of this world. Focus on your goal for eternal life, which happens let it happen. Life is full of causation, be careful of every decision you make."
Grandfather Lian advised Tang Hao at length, for some reason he felt that his life was only a few years away. While there were many things he had to tell Tang Hao.
Silent for a moment, only a breath of in and out were heard as well as the sounds of beasts being heard out there.
"Alright, since you already have energy, grandfather inhin knows how much qi you currently have" Grandpa Lian was curious about the qi that Tang Hao currently possessed.
Grandfather Lian could sense that even though Tang Hao was currently only at the Elite realm, the qi that Tang Hao possessed was abnormal. Tang Hao nodded slowly.
"Right now I am at the realm of a two-star Elite or an early stage Silver swordsman, yet the ocean of energy qi is currently as vast as this Valley of Death grandfathers. I was also at a loss as to why I did not level up despite already having this much qi energy. I felt that every time I wanted to level up, my strength was always suppressed at the same realm. It was as if something was suppressing and sealing my power but I had no idea where it was sealed and who sealed it." Tang Hao replied while complaining as if he did not feel satisfied with his current strength.
But that answer managed to make Grandpa Lian's heart stop beating for a moment. Grandfather Lian could hardly believe it if it wasn't Tang Hao himself who said it. An energy as vast as the Valley of Death was the same as a Cultivator in the nine-star Legend realm if it was considered a super genius with a talent of one to one million people in several millennia.
Whereas this kid in front of him already had qi energy as vast as a huge lake and was still at the Elite realm? Who would believe. Although the tiers one possessed did not represent his strength, tiers were only used as a count to discern each person's strength.
If his cultivation was sealed at the moment but not with his qi energy, how would it be if Tang Hao's power seal was opened someday? A mighty force capable of destroying everything, buried within a ten year old boy.
After being silent for quite a while and the atmosphere outside was already dark, Grandpa Lian finally invited Tang Hao to cook their dinner. Grandfather Lian started teaching Tang Hao something very important, which was cooking.
Even though the two of them were currently able to throw away their hunger with the qi energy they had, but the habit of eating and tasting something delicious, could not just disappear. In his prime, every day Lian's grandfather tasted a wide variety of delicious dishes from various worlds.
As soon as he finished dinner, Grandpa Lian told Tang Hao to get some rest immediately. These few days Tang Hao looked quite tired due to the hard training Grandpa Lian had given him.
Tang Hao did not go straight to sleep. He was still curious as to where all his cultivation disappeared from, he was back and forth into his subconscious but found nothing but an impenetrable darkness with his vision. Tang Hao finally chose a break.
Meanwhile Lian's grandfather was still ringing Tang Hao's words due to his sealed strength, so it was remembered while waiting for Tang Hao to be cultivating in the mysterious domain named after Lian's grandfather the Thousand Flowers Valley.
The incident that really made Grandpa Lian have a different view since then. Grandpa Lian was still made to creep in fear every time he remembered the incident.
"I hope that this child will become the strongest Emperor of Heaven ever." Grandpa Lian said.
"Parents watch your words, don't equate young master with your Trash Emperor" said someone behind Lian's grandfather.
The old man turned his head, how surprised he was when he saw a handsome young man looking at him sharply. The young man wore a night-like black robe that had strange patterns that gave grandfather Lian goosebumps of fear. Another grandfather fell to his feet and did not dare to look into the red sliced eyes of the young man. Although her eyes looked beautiful, they contained something frightening and could kill someone if they stared at her for too long.
"Emperor Heaven? Cuihhhh, it is an insult to the young master" The young man said coldly as he spat to his left side as if he did not accept with Grandpa Lian's words.
Although without any murderous intent coming out from this mysterious figure in front of him, grandfather Lian was again made to tremble in fear. Without realizing it, Lian's grandfather's pants had gotten wet, she was terrified more than she was afraid of death.
The figure of the young man smiled with satisfaction after successfully bullying people know in front of him this. The young man walked away from Lian's grandfather.
"Not to be ashamed of my parents, even though I look like this but I'm far above you, probably far from your ancestors." Said the young man while disappearing somewhere.
Grandpa Lian smiled wryly in light of the most humiliating incident of her entire life, she was like a brat who deserved to be punished for the mistake she made.
He could not think any further about Tang Hao's mysterious identity. He prefers to put his old body in bed. He breathed out softly before coming to terms with his dream.
But unbeknownst to Tang Hao or Lian's grandfather was that the one who had been cultivating five years in the Thousand Flowers Valley domain was only the shadow of Tang Hao, his real body was practicing the sword together with a mysterious man named Xiao.
