One last surprise (part 1)

Aster looked at the old man which was doubting to speak while "secretly" gathering spirit energy in his chest, he clearly planned to break the meridians of his own heart if needed.

'Well, I guess I look like the bad guy here, or at least someone who seeks revenge over the smallest grudge, not that it's a lie though', thought Aster.

Aster's pressure fell on the old man which immediately tried to severe the meridians in his heart, just to be terrified by the discovery that… his spirit energy didn't follow his orders.

The old man sighed.

"I was a fool to think I could hide something from the eyes of someone that could see the yang stealing needles in my body, can I ask which honorable soul king in disguise are you?".

…

Silence fell on the room, with the exception of the half dead Trevor whose pupils contracted in terror, the didn't react as the old man expected.

Eris and Mylene simply shook their heads.
