were nothing but bugs!"

Zhang Haogu sighed, "No matter what, they paved the way for us."

Nodding seriously, Jia Yuntian sighed, "That's right. Everything we know today is because of everyone's efforts."

Not wanting to continue on the topic, Zhang Haogu turned to Shang Xia. "Even though the Chaos Essence Lightning Palm was conceived from the Lightning Core Palm, the first person who managed to comprehend it only managed to do so after a hundred years."

"Is comprehending the Chaos Essence Lightning Palm so difficult?" Shang Xia gasped.

"It's not easy for anyone to comprehend any martial intent. Without talent, comprehension ability, fate, and determination, one will never be able to do so!" Jia Yuntian sighed.

"Oh." Shang Xia nodded, but a smug expression soon formed on his face. "This disciple understands what teacher is saying. Even though every martial intent in the world is difficult to comprehend, the Chaos Essence

Lightning Palm is much harder than the rest!"

comprehend a suitable martial intent. One has to know, if you manage to record your experiences, your contributions will benefit the institution eternally. If Shang Shanchang were to hear of it, he'll definitely be extremely grateful…"

"Stop, stop, stop!" Shang Xia slapped the fan against his chest and a bitter smile emerged. "I'll arrange my thoughts and try to come up with something! I'll give you an answer in three days, but I have no idea if I'll be able to remember anything substantial!"

Shang Xia left soon after.

Looking at his leaving figure, a frown could be seen on Jia Yuntian's face. "What a slick brat! He's completely different from his ancestor!"

"As long as he helps the institution out by sharing his experiences, it doesn't matter if we give him some extra benefits…" Zhang Haogu muttered.

Glancing at his old friend, Jia Yuntian thought that he was hearing things. "Aren't you afraid that rumors will go about saying that you're trying to suck up to Shang Bo?"

"What a joke. When have I, Zhang Haogu, ever been one to care about rumors?" A chuckle left his lips.

However, his tone changed immediately after. "I'm afraid this brat doesn't realize how important it is to comprehend a martial intent. He'll be running into a lot of trouble soon… It won't be easy for him to leave the institution anymore."

"This…"

…

When Shang Xia ran into yet another person standing in his way, he discovered that things weren't as they seemed. His expression changed slightly.

Yuan Zilu looked at the kid standing before him, and the indifferent expression on his face in the plaza had long since been replaced by a more friendly one. Waving to him, Yuan Zilu spoke, "Little brat, you're pretty good!"

him an offer! Our Protective Division hasn't fallen so far as to start kidnapping experts…" An awkward laughter left Yuan Zilu's lips.

As the pretty young lady approached Yuan Zilu, she looked at him from head to toe before revealing a wide smile. "Xia'er, you did well!"

Receiving her praise, Shang Xia lowered his head slightly and snickered, "Aunt, when did you get here?"

Indeed, the lady who arrived was his biological aunt, Shang Xi.

There were many people in the Shang Clan who took care of him from a young age, but Shang Xi was the one who doted on him the most. She was the closest relative he had in the Shang Clan.

Instead of continuing her praise, she snapped at him all of a sudden. "You caused such a huge ruckus here. If I don't come, who knows when you'll be able to leave the institution?"

An awkward smile hung on Yuan Zilu's face and he quickly piped in to save his ass. "Nonsense! We won't do such a thing!"

Completely ignoring him, Shang Xi brought Shang Xia towards the entrance of the institution. Yuan Zilu's voice echoed softly behind them, "Be careful on your way back!"

With Shang Xi present, no one dared to stop Shang Xia any longer.

Seeing as there wasn't anyone else around, Shang Xia could no longer contain the curiosity in his heart. "Aunt, about Yuan Zilu…"

"He's just a junior disciple I had when studying here."

"Wow…" Shang Xia secretly gave his aunt a thumbs up.

However, it didn't take long for Shang Xi to douse his excitement. "Brat, you better be ready to answer some questions. There are many people in the family interested in your martial intent… However, you can rest assured that even without your grandpa, no one will dare to force you to do anything. With your potential, I'll be able to fight for tons of benefits from the family on your behalf!"
