The Night King: The Asura
Ch-235′s chat. Jia Zhen's
First dimension.
After a year and a half of training, Xie Ling and Jia Zhen were finally allowed to return home by Lao Tzu, but they were required to return to the Nirvana Realm as soon as possible, as their training was still not over.
"Son, I'm sure father and mother must be amazed by our achievements now" said Jia Zhen.
"You're right, they'll surely be amazed by our achievements!" sahut Xie Ling's.
The two brothers seemed very happy when they entered the gates of the Underworld kingdom, they were even impatient to show their achievements to their parents.
However, while passing through the city, the two were able to sense the difference in atmosphere, and somehow, they saw sadness on every face of the person they met in the Underworld royal city.
"What's this about? Why does everyone look sad?"
"We should hurry to the palace, I'm sure you know the cause of this grief" Xie Ling replied.
Jia Zhen nodded, then clasped his brother's hand, then they disappeared from there, a moment later, both of them had arrived before the wide-open entrance of the palace.
When they arrived there, both of them were astonished by the atmosphere of the palace that was so quiet, that they could even feel a much greater sadness compared to what they felt while in the city.
"Sister!" said Xie Ling calling Huanran who happened to pass by.
Huanran turned to the source of the voice, he showed his best smile to welcome the arrival of Xie Long's two younger brothers, even so, Xie Ling and Jia Zhen could feel that Huanran's smile was like an forced smile.
"Where is Brother Long?" asked Jia Zhen.
"Welcome, how are you?" Instead of answering, Huanran instead asked Jia Zhen a question, and it managed to make Xie Long's sister feel suspicious.
"Sir Hua, what's really going on?"
Huanran let out a long sigh, "You better go to mother's room now" he said, then brought the two Xie Long sisters to Luo Ning's room.
Upon arriving at Luo Ning's room, Xie Ling's cries suddenly broke when she saw her mother lying stiff on the bed, her entire body looking pale and her life energy was very dim and dwindling.
Their return should have received a warm welcome, because both of them came home with good news, but the return that should have brought happiness, ended with deep sadness.
Unlike Xie Ling, Jia Zhen actually looked calmer, but that did not mean he was not sad. He was very sad, even really sad to see the condition of his mother, but he could still hide his sadness.
"Sister, what happened to you?" jia Zhen asked, his voice sounding raucous as it held back a cry.
Withstanding all the sadness that filled her chest, Xie Long then told her what had happened to their mother. And it started a few days after their father's departure six months ago.
Xie Long himself did not actually know what had happened to their mother, because at that time, Xie Long had already found their mother with the condition she was in, but the only reason he could explain was their father.
"Dad? What is dad, why? And where is he now?" ask Xie Ling.
Xie Long shook his head softly, "I don't know where dad is now either" he said.
"Why are you guys quiet? Why not tell me this?!"
Xie Ling was really upset that no one had taught her before, and if they did not return, perhaps they would never know the current state of their mother.
Xie Ling's cry grew even more so when everyone was silent and no one answered her question. To be honest, he wanted to get angry and vent his frustration at them, but his sadness was still much greater.
Meanwhile.
Jia Zhen who was beside Luo Ning's right then grabbed onto her mother's cold hand, as she clasped her mother's hand, she felt that something was within her mother's grasp.
Then, he opened his mother's hand slowly so as not to hurt her, and then he grabbed a jade that had been fractured from her hand. Afterwards, he stored the jade that had been cracked into his storage ring.
Jia Zhen clasped Luo Ning's hand tightly, then kissed the back of her mother's hand gently, then he approached her mother's face and then peeked at her forehead.
"Mother, I promise to find father and bring him home" Jia Zhen whispered in his mother's ear.
Jia Zhen certainly knew that the jade his mother held belonged to his father, he also understood the meaning of the crack in the jade, but his heart refused to believe that his father had died.
"Uncle, can we talk to you for a second?" jia Zhen asked Huise.
"Okay, Young Master!"
After which, Jia Zhen and Huise walked out of Luo Ning's room, the two then went to the palace's backyard to talk there.
"Uncle."
"What's up, Young Master!"
"Okay, Young Master!" huise said, then called all his brothers to gather in the backyard of the palace.
Not long after, the entire death pillar members had gathered in the backyard, they all appeared silent and no one dared to speak before Jia Zhen allowed them to speak.
Moreover, there was another thing that made them not dare to let out their voices, which was the feeling of tension when they saw Jia Zhen standing his back to them all.
"I know that your loyalty to my father is unquestionable, I also know that you will never be able to turn your back on him. But..." Jia Zhen hung his words, then turned to face all of them.
"For this time alone, let me take the lead over your group" he continued.
Huise and the others looked shocked, but not because of Jia Zhen's words, but because of the same feelings they had felt when they were with Lin Feng.
Jia Zhen's strength could not be compared to his father or his two brothers, but the radiance of aura emanating from his body somehow made them feel depressed.
And, the pressure they felt was completely the same as the pressure they felt when they were with Lin Feng, yet strangely, they did not feel that when they were with Xie Long or Xie Ling.
Moreover, the calmness shown by Jia Zhen also caused a different feeling within them, because of that calmness, they could only see in Lin Feng.
No, more precisely, the calmness that Jia Zhen showed actually exceeded the calmness that Lin Feng showed, and that was the only reason that made them feel like they were being with Lin Feng.
"This feeling is really the same as the feeling of being with you" Huise said in his heart.
"How, do you want to?" asked Jia Zhen.
"We are ready to obey orders, young master!" they said everything in unison.
Jia Zhen smiled happily at their reply, "Alright, your first task is to take me through every dimension that exists in this universe!" he said with a firm voice.
"Good!" Without the slightest hesitation, the eight of them directly obeyed Jia Zhen's orders just like that.
"Young Master, when are we leaving?" ask Huise.
"In a moment, because I want to do uncle something before we leave" Jia Zhen replied.
After that, Jia Zhen ordered Huise to go to meet Goddess Nuwa, he wanted Huise to convey her request to Goddess Nuwa, which is to give a little life energy to her mother.
Actually, Jia Zhen wanted to ask for that help directly, but he realized, his strength was still not enough to be able to reach the Great Nirvana Realm, which was the place where Goddess Nuwa was.
"Do you think Dad really died?" jia Zhen asked after Huise left.
They were all silent and no one dared to make a sound, not out of fear that Jia Zhen would be angry at hearing their answer, but out of such great sadness that it made them unable to speak.
"You can all believe you're dead, but not with me, I can't believe you're dead!"
"You may forget, but I didn't! I still remember clearly who my father really was. So, there was no way he would die so easily!"
"I'm sure you're somewhere in this dimension, and I'm sure you're so badly hurt that you can't go back."
Jia Zhen spoke to himself, his tone sounding vibrating as the tears he had painstakingly weathered, finally flowing out of his eyes. Even so, he could still smile, so that they all knew that he was very strong.
"Believe it or not, Young Master is very similar to Master" Lang Diyu said in a soft voice.
"You're right, between his two brothers, only he truly inherited the nature of Master. They may inherit the Lord's cruelty, but only the Young Master inherits the serenity and firmness of his heart." Yin Ouyang said.
"I don't know about you guys, but I see the Master in him."
"Fourth brother is right, I also saw the same thing!"
"So?"
"It has been decided, we must follow it and obey it as we follow and obey Master!"
"Good decision!"
"Zhu Ling, Zhu Lien, what about the two of you?"
"Unfortunately Young Master is still a child, otherwise I would marry her."
Zhu Ling's words made the others set their sights on him, they were completely unconcerned by what they had just heard from Zhu Ling's mouth.
"Zhu Ling, are you okay?" asked Du Fang Ren.
Zhu Ling smiled, "That's just an expression, in other words, I'll follow her and also obey her."
