CHAPTER 2: PICKING UP CULTIVATION EASILY

Ye Zong: "Close all the doors! Account all of attendance in this hall! Activate the secrecy seals and silence inscription! I want everyone accounted. Guards! Search every nook and cronies to make sure no little spy or misplaced maid running about. Now!"

The guards started thier search, some activated the seals and inscription. After they did a throughly search, they found some maid cleaning.

Ye Zong: "Nobody except the divine family can leave this room until we investigate all your background. I will also have you swear an oath of secrecy of what you heard or what you hear afterwards will not be mentioned outside this room. My royal servant Jin will go out and search your background to confirm your identity, to make sure your not a spy to other families or the dark guild. Until he returns, you are hereby contained in this hall."

The divine family stayed quiet until servant Jin returns. They don't know if anyone there is trustworthy. The Snow wind family understands too so everyone just quietly waited until the investigation ends.

Chen Yue: "(In thoughts) I wonder if Ye Han got influenced by the sacred family yet. Cause he will go to the genius class soon. Well, he's still young. Maybe I can persuade him to think of family first. But I have to convince Uncle Zong to treat him better and not pressuring him to be the heir and bodyguard to Ziyun then later retract it. It's like he took his purpose that's why he betrayed the family."

He then realizes that Ziyun still hugging him like a koala bear.

Chen Yue: "Big sister Ziyun, you can get off me now..."

Ye Ziyun: "Nooo~ I want to cuddle my mini me!"

Everyone: "Pfffft" they try to contain their laughter.

Chen Yue: "What?! I'm not you mini you! I'm a very healthy boy soon to be a man! Just you wait, I will cut my hair and grow muscles. I will be more manly than uncle Zong. hmmph!"

Ye Ziyun: "Nooo~ My little sister is rebelling!"

Chen Yue: "Whose your little sister! And get off me you vice grip of doom!"

Everyone:"hahaha!"

Zhenlong: "Uhmm, there's gonna be a problem with that... You see, I promise your mom to keep your hair long and body non muscular... Sorry son."

Chen Yue: "What?! Why the he'll did you promise that."

Ye Zong: " I...I also promise that and even made it into the rules hehe.."

Chen Yue: "What?! Even you uncle Zong?"

LinJian: "I think I can explain.... You see brother, mom wanted a daughter like Ziyun. She spoiled Ziyun a lot. When she was pregnant with you, everyday she prayed on the ancestors for a girl but you turn out to be a boy. But your features are exactly like Ziyun and her. I know you don't remember, but you always go out in girl clothes. Only on special occasions and what your wearing now are you dressed in guy clothes. She also made me promise. So I'm sorry brother I can't let you cut your hair. It was the last request of our dying mother.... but we can style it to a guys form of long hair. But your facial features are still a problem. Even your Adams apple seems to be hiding."

Chen Yue: "Urgh, oh well. Fine, be that way, but I will not wear no girl clothes or any feminine crap...ever... and Ziyun... GET OFF MEEE!"

Later around almost nightfall, ME and my family headed home. Ye Zong told Yue and everyone to keep my cultivation rank as a 2 star silver rank a secret. If the dark guild get a wiff of this information, they may send assassination attempts on him to prevent future threat. Also Zhenlong will find a babysitter/ guard on him at all times. Well, he is only 5 years old. So yup, a babysitter it is.

The Snow wind family, guarded the witnesses and doctor at all times until the investigation is over. He got his most trusted guards to rotate guarding them and make sure they don't send messages out or see anyone until it's finished. Even food are inspected to see if any secrets or poisons are hidden.

When they got home, Zhenlong and LinJian tried their best to tell him of his forgotten memories, which he also have no idea. They described Ye Xu as a colorful prankster. She's more of a kid when it's only family are around. She also brainwash Ziyun to treat him more of a little sister rather little brother. She also made Ziyun dress him up like a doll when he was younger. LinJian described himself as an adventurer/ treasure speaker. He believes when the age of darkness fell, the riches of the people got left behind while running away. And most will be in the Ancient ruins just waiting to be discovered. He also said he got a few friends when he started the academy. He described a perverted spoiled girl named Huyan Lanrou which was very annoying but when it comes to hooking him up with the auction hall, she's you girl. Also cousin Ye Han was directly sent to the genius class for being 4 star bronze rank

-----------------------

After 2 weeks, the investigation has finished and our secrets is safe. Ye Zong and his family always visits them and Ye Zong is so adamant in spoiling Chen Yue. But Chen Yue always tell his uncle to pay more attention to both Ziyun and Han. In which, Ye hands treatment became better than the original timeline. This also made Ye Han protective to his new younger brother same as Ziyun. Ziyun on the other hand started chasing Chen Yue a lot while Chen Yue tried to hide behind either Ye Han or LinJian. She really got brainwash by his mother and saw Chen Yue as prey for dress up. She even learned a little alchemy to knock him out cold, so when he wakes up screaming due to wearing women's dress and make up. The final straw was when he woke up with a training bra and panties. He felt violated and can't wait for them to start school so he can have some rest from the abuse.

Zhenlong assigned a trustable babysitter/ nanny to him and laugh at the antics of the children. Ye Zong, due to Chen Yue's argument, treated better his children with enough attention so they don't get the feelings of unwanted Ness and hate. He also convinced his godfather to delegate his duties as patriarch and city lord so he can have more time for his family.

Zhenlong also did what he suggested, but now he got too much time on his hands. So he went hunting and did his hobbies. LinJian started going to school so he only see him at night time, sometimes his gone for a week due to hanging out with his friends and all. Ye Han always escorts a Ziyun home after his school ends from his house. Since Xioa Ning'er stop being friends with her, she has no one. She was lonely, so she often kidnap/ take him with her to go shopping and hangout.

-----------------------------------

Chen Yue: "Hmmm. Nie Li have 3 top cultivation for him. Heavenly God Technique which is the most comprehensive and difficult to practice. Then War God Technique, which is extremely overbearing. And the last was The Void God technique which is the practice of all attributes. When mastered, you will gain measurable power, but it has a limit. Every techniques has its flaws. But I can't decide until I check my soul Realm and attributes. For that, I need a soul crystal. My cousin Ziyun has blizzard attribute and Nie Li gave her the Nine revolving Ice phoenix technique sine she has the ice phoenix soul form. Since my mother has ice attribute also, I might have inherited hers. My father's side has fire attribute, so it will be difficult if I have fire.... decisions decisions."

Ye Ziyun came with all Ye Zong in tow.

Ziyun: "Little Yue, we're her to play!. I came to take you shopping!"

Chen Yue: "Well did that yesterday.. and the day before that. Aren't you tired?"

Ziyun: "Nope, that's why we have storage rings. Besides, I wanna spend some time with my little sister!"

Chen Yue: "I'm a guy for crying out loud... Uncle please, please find Ning'er and do whatever to bring her back. My fate is in your hands."

Ye Zong: "Hahaha! Nephew sometimes you just have to surrender to women. Besides, she will grow out of it soon enough. Besides, when you grow up. You will look back and say (I did that) which will embarrass her in the future. I can understand Ning'er acting like that. She was forced by her family to an engagement to the sacred family bastard. Shen Fei don't have the best reputation. And his Shen Hong is pressuring me to engage his other son Shen Yue to Ziyun. But I said no. I told him, let the kids decide. "

Ye Ziyun: "Hmph! Why would I want to be engaged to him. He's so annoying, always stalking me. I have to act ladylike all the time so not to embarrass the family. I can only be myself around our family."

Chen Yue: "(Pffft...) Ziyun...hehe...ladylike..."

Zhenlong and Ye Zong: "Pfft."

Ye Ziyun: "Heey~ I can so~ be ladylike. I practice a lot."

Ye Zong: "I know honey, it's just so funny when I see it outside."

Afterwards, she kidnapped Chen Yue to the market. With Ye Zong in disguise guarding us. He is also their Banker so everything's free. He ask his uncle for soul crystals and bought every form of herbs that can be found in bundles. He told Ye Zong that he has interest with alchemy. They also stop by the alchemy association to buy pills for Ye Han and LinJian. He bought a cauldron and herbs. Also just for show, alchemy books.

After the grueling hours of shopping, the energizer bunny called Ziyun finally got tired. They stopped by to eat at an expensive restaurant where they meet up with the family. Zhenlong, LinJian, Ye Mo and Ye Han.

When Chen Yue got home, he immediately entered his dimension. He planted all the herbs, plants and some fruit trees. He also checked the soul crystal for his attributes and what he saw shocked him.

Chen Yue: "What the f*ck!? Ice dragon soul form... Cyan colored soul with chaos, fire and ice attributes. Well that takes out the 2 top techniques of Nie Li. I guess I'm going for Void God technique, but there's another technique I can add to make the limit go higher. The divine ice dragon pulse technique. It will help me soul form my dragon wings. Since I'm already silver rank. Also, I can have up to 3 demon beast to integrate. Not like Nie Li who can do 7. Well, there's no time like the present. I need to be gold rank before I go to the Ancient ruins to get that shadow beast. God ranks are hard to find you know."

Chen Yue started circulating his soul force. He recited the chants and was surprised how hard and powerful it is. It was fast, but he needed to build up his foundation. He needs his physical body enhanced to accommodate his soul force or he will explode. So most of the night was physical training since absorption is too fast.

And like that, 2 years has pass. He was now 7 years old and finally both physical and cultivation was 2 star gold rank. It was harder to advance due to not having a demon beast spirit integrated in him. He was waiting for his rank to reach this Realm. At 12, Ziyun will start school at the Holy Orchid Institute tomorrow and the start of Cannon. Ye Han has changed, and cared for his adopted father with love as his own. Ye Mo is out investigating the dark guild, Ye Han also went with him but was being looked after by an elder from the branch snow wind family for training.

LinJian hangout with his friends and posse/crew most of the time due to common interest and bought a house near the school to have freedom on his own. Every time he's home, all he talked about was treasure hunting or exploring the ruins. Zhenlong didn't approve since it's too dangerous and they had a big fight, leaving his brother not visiting for over a month. The pride of both LinJian and Zhenlong won't say they are sorry or wrong, so the snubbing gone for awhile. To relieve Zhenlong's stress, he often gone for a weeks on end, hunting and camping in the forest leaving Chen Yue alone. He also approve to take out his babysitter since he is stronger than all the guards around. But he still need a guard when he go out, just for show. And since Ziyun started her school, she only visits in the weekend and vacation, which led her to cry a lot. Ye Zong got busy. The dark guild attacks become too often and a lot of kidnapped nobles and other missing kids are happening. So he can hardly spend time to visit. It is also the reason why Ye Mo is gone to investigate and find the missing people. Ye Han was sent away since Ye Zong thought he might be targeted since he was the top of the class being already gold rank at 15 years old. He sent the most powerful elder which was 4 star black-gold rank and a few guards at gold rank to escorted them while training.

One last thing, he also gave Ziyun the nine revolving ice phoenix technique to her as secret between them to protect her. Unknown to everyone, she is already a 2 star silver rank and can do simple blizzard spells and form icicles. She also slowed down due to not having a demon beast spirit integrated. He told her to wait for him to get a god rank demon beast with ice and blizzard attributes. Since she can only integrate one.
