The Rise of the Dragon Warrior
Poor Shen Long
In a small building, there is a figure of the Youth who is lamenting his unfortunate fate.
The young man was none other than 17-year-old Shen Long sitting in a narrow room that was not worthy of being used as a residence.
" Oh God... Why am I given such a fate." Shen Long who looks moody because he has many times gotten misfortune in his life.
How not? Shen Long who had originally reached the level 1 Expert Swordsman since he was 7 years old, was now increasingly declining until he had reached the Level 1 Basic Swordsman.
Because of his genius Shen Long was betrothed to King Ling Minghao's daughter, Ling Yi Hua of Ling Kingdom since Shen Long was 7 years old and Ling Yi Hua was 6 years old.
At that time the Father of Shen Long was still the Patriarch of the Heavenly Dragon Sect where Father Shen Long was able to bring the Heavenly Dragon Sect to glory.
Ever since that engagement between Shen Long and Ling Yi Hua, there had been some people who disliked it so much that they intended to get rid of Shen Long's father.
One day Shen Long's father and mother were traveling to the Ling Royal Palace where they were confronted by a mysterious group until they were killed by the fight.
Hearing of the death of his parents, Shen Long felt frustrated because he was still young and certainly in need of affection from his parents.
Seeing that, the Great Elder of the Heavenly Dragon Sect named Hao Tian felt good to Shen Long and raised him to be a child.
Hao Tian also has two sons, Hao Mingzi and Hao Xiang, who are also very good to Shen Long.
In order to replace Father Shen Long, some of the other Elders and Teachers wanted to appoint Hao Tian as their new Patriarch.
But the proposal was subtly rejected by Hao Tian, as he reasoned to focus more on his family.
Since Hao Tian refused, there was one person who immediately stood up indicating that he was ready to take on the task of being the Patriarch of the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
He was Yang Gang who had previously served as the Elder of the Heavenly Dragon Sect and one of the brains of the killing towards Old Man Shen Long.
Since there were no candidates who met the requirements, they raised Yang Gang as the Patriarch of the Heavenly Dragon Sect which had a bad temper and was very mysterious.
Ever since the appointment of Patriarch Yang Gang, slowly the order of the Heavenly Dragon Sect had shifted until it raised many questions from some Elders.
It was not long before Shen Long was exposed to a very mysterious poison, which he could no longer cultivate.
Grand Elder Hao Tian and the other few Elders were also astonished, being unable to recognize the poison lodged in Shen Long's body.
Not even a year after the death of his parents, now he has a bad fate where he can no longer cultivate due to the Poison that lodged in his body.
Since that time Shen Long began to be shunned by his peers not even infrequently having to get bad treatment.
Not only that, Shen Long also began to be shunned by his own best friend, of course, making him even more frustrated.
Now there are only three people who still care about him, namely Grand Elder Hao Tian who as his adoptive father and his two foster brothers Hao Mingzi and Hao Xiang.
As Shen Long was lamenting his fate, now an outside voice called out to him.
" Sister Long... Don't you want to make a pilgrimage to the graves of your two Parents?" A voice rang out from outside, none other than Hao Mingzi.
" Wait a minute, brother." Shen Long wiped his tears hurriedly out of the small building.
Shen Long realizes that today is the 10th anniversary of the death of his parents.
" Sister Long... Are you crying again? You're a man shouldn't cry." Hao Xiang shook his head trying to comfort his adoptive sister.
They did understand the condition that Shen Long was in, indeed, for anyone who is in the position of Shen Long can be sure he also has no power to hold back tears because it has been 10 years of bad treatment to him.
Such treatment was always happening every day which made Shen Long have to get bruised all over his body by some outer Disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
Within the Sky Dragon Sect were three levels of Disciples; namely Outer Disciples, Inner Disciples and Core Disciples.
Hao Mingzi and Hao Xiang who had already stayed as Inner Disciples could not do anything because Shen Long still stayed as Outer Disciple.
The Elders and Teachers did not seem to mind this, as they considered that Shen Long was a disgrace to their Sect.
Despite that, they did not dare to repel Shen Long because the Great Elder had always maintained Shen Long to be in the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
" No Brother. I'm just practicing soy sauce." Shen Long hid his sadness.
" all right... Now we're going to your parents' funeral." Hao Mingzi did not want to bother about it too much, as he himself could not help much.
Even the Great Elder himself was only able to defend Shen Long in the Heavenly Dragon Sect, but did not have the right to govern the others.
The three of them also set their feet towards a place where Shen Long's parents were buried.
" Hey... It turned out that the trash did not dare to walk alone. Even have to ask for protection from the Inner Disciple." said one Outer Disciple said to another colleague.
" Right Brother... The trash is useless. Why until now had the Heavenly Dragon Sect not taken out such trash Disciples." said the female disciple who was in that place also cursed Shen Long who was none other than Hu Meiyin who used to be the girl who was most familiar with Shen Long.
" Sister Meiyin... I didn't expect you to come with them to curse and corner me either." Shen Long shook his head due to the change in attitude of Hu Meiyin who used to be with him to practice or do other activities.
In fact, they can be said to be like lovers where all the Outer Disciples also know this.
" Cii-hh... Who would want to be a lover of a scum." Hu Meiyin felt disgusted at seeing Shen Long.
Hearing Hu Meiyin's remark, Shen Long's heart ached that Hu Meiyin had once promised to be with Shen Long even though she knew that Shen Long could not cultivate anymore.
Shen Long was already engaged to Ling Yi Hua, but it was only the wish of King Ling Minghao and his late father.
While they themselves have never been met until now especially when Shen Long was a child who certainly did not care about it.
Because as a child, only Hu Meiyin was always attached to Shen Long, it made them both have the seeds of love when they were teenagers.
Even then Hu Meiyin asked Shen Long to cancel the engagement plan with Ling Yi Hua, which of course was approved by Shen Long.
" Sister Long... We better continue on." Hao Mingzi led them away from the place towards the cemetery.
Arriving at the funeral of his parents, as usual Shen Long sowed flowers and lit some incense sticks and knelt before the graves of his parents.
Likewise with Hao Mingzi and Hao Xiang, they also paid homage to the graves of Shen Long's two elders whom they considered to be the most meritorious people in the Sky Dragon Sect.
After the afternoon, Hao Mingzi and Hao Xiang brought Shen Long back to the Heavenly Dragon Sect until they rushed over from the place.
After being in the small building, Hao Mingzi and Hao Xiang bid Shen Long farewell to return to their respective residences.
" Sister Long... Do you still feel pain?" Hao Mingzi, who had noticed Shen Long's body from the beginning, was bruised to an incision wound when Shen Long removed his upper clothes to clean his parents.
" No brother... It's just a minor wound. Maybe in a few days it will heal." Shen Long hid the excruciating pain he had experienced that the previous days he had always been hit and even given an incision wound to be battered by Yang Kiang Son of Patriarch Yang Gang.
Luckily on this day Yang Kiang and his friends did not want to meet Shen Long, because they already knew about the arrival of Hao Mingzi and Hao Xiang.
" Sister Long... You can't hide that to us. We've heard from some of the other Disciples that you were beaten by Yang Kiang with his friends. I'm sorry we can't do much, but we can help you a little." Hao Xiang gave Shen Long some recovery Pills to treat his injuries.
" Thank you for the help of all of you. One day I'll repay your kindness." Shen Long took the Pill into his pocket.
There was a smile on Shen Long's face, with the Pill at least able to ease the pain he was suffering.
After that Hao Mingzi and Hao Xiang left that place which now left only Shen Long alone as usual no food, no pills, no resources whatsoever from the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
Even Shen Long is only based on the land in the small building which is not for residence, but the former Horse Stables repaired by Shen Long.
To meet daily needs, Shen Long only relied on Fish in the river and fruits in the Forest which happened to be small buildings on the edge of the Forest.
" The Sky Dragon Sect is the Struggle of my Father. Patriarch Yang Gang and all of you. One day I will take revenge." Shen Long clenched his hands in anger.
