Xhan awakening (Chapter 4)

Xhan couldn't shake off the feeling of unease about the meaning of his dreams. Every day, he would dream of the same bloody battle, and a name he couldn't quite place - Liang Wei. He struggled to recall the details of his dreams, unsure if they were just his subconscious mind at work or held some significance from his past life.

"Who are you, Liang Wei?" Xhan asked himself, unsure when or how he would find the answer. The name lingered in his mind like a persistent whisper.

His mother approached him, concern etched on her face. "Are you okay, son?" she asked.

But Xhan didn't respond, lost in the labyrinth of his thoughts. His mother's voice barely registered.

"What's troubling you, Xhan?" she pressed, sitting beside him.

Xhan hesitated, unsure how to articulate his fears. "It's just... being a clan leader is difficult," he replied finally.

His mother sighed, understanding the weight of responsibility that came with leading their clan, Hualing. "Yes, it's challenging, especially for a major clan like ours."

As night fell, Xhan retired to his quarters, still deep in thought. Suddenly, a voice whispered in his mind, "Xhan, find Liang Wei."

He saw two men talking in his mind's eye. One asked, "Zhanzhan, want me to sing for you?" Zhanzhan smiled and Liang Wei began to sing; Xhan saw the love and camaraderie between them.

"Liang Wei, I'm worried... how do we defeat them? The evil spirit summoned the half of your power." Xhan asked, Liang Wei didn't hesitate to answer "We can do it,I know the Ying will support us"

Zhanzhan hugged Liang Wei and said "Wei..Please be careful" Liang Wei laugh and said "You should be the one who need to be careful" they hugged eachother tightly until..

A guard warned, "Master Liang Wei, there are many evil spirits." Liang Wei Ang Zhanzhan immediately understand what was happening

Xhan witnessed Liang Wei's sacrifice and Zhanzhan's death in his dream. A mysterious voice spoke, "Xhan..You need to understand what you've seeing rightnow"

Xhan's mind reeled. "Who am I?" he wondered and look everywhere expecting he could find the voice

The mysterious voice replied, "You're Zhanzhan. Find Liang Wei; darkness approaches, and many are dying. Only you and Liang Wei can stop it." Xhan finally realized who he is.

Xhan awoke, his sheets drenched in sweat, tears streaming down his face. "I'm Zhanzhan."

He couldn't shake off the feeling of unease, thinking about Liang Wei and their connection.

"Liang Wei, do you remember me?" Xhan asked, tears welling up in his eyes.

As he gazed out the window, lost in thought, Xhan sensed danger lurking. He saw a man chasing a child in his mind's eye and knew the location.

Without hesitation, Xhan rushed to the scene, determined to save the child.

Upon arrival, he saw a man threatening to eat the girl's soul. Xhan intervened, and the man was surprised by his strength.

as the man holding xhan neck he suddenly said "You have a powerful soul," the man said.

Xhan countered, "You're the one with evil powers." xhan kicked the man and punched him countless time until the man loss conscious

The mysterious voice told Xhan to "summon him." Xhan was unsure what that meant.

"Summon?" Xhan asked.

The voice explained, "When you summon, the evil spirit will exit and enter the gates of darkness. Innocent souls will peacefully journey to the afterlife."

"B-but how?" Xhan asked,the voice immediately tell to him "Just place your left hand on his chest and wait"

Xhan followed the voice's instructions, placing his hand on the man's chest and singing. The man's body glowed, and an evil spirit emerged.

Xhan entered a bright realm and saw the mysterious voice's portal to darkness. The voice praised Xhan's work.

"You've summoned your first spirit, Xhan. I look forward to more of your excellent work."

Xhan returned home, pondering his experience and connection to Liang Wei.

Xhan's days blended together in a haze of intense training. He knew he possessed a power, though he couldn't quite grasp its extent. The mysterious voice's words echoed in his mind: "Find Liang Wei." But for now, mastering his abilities took precedence.

In the secluded courtyard of the Hualing clan, Xhan practiced relentlessly. His movements were fluid, a dance of precision and strength. Clan members watched, perplexed, as Xhan honed his skills with unwavering dedication.

"Xhan, why so intense?" asked Ning, a fellow clan member.

Xhan's gaze remained fixed on the horizon. "Just perfecting my technique."

Ning hesitated, sensing more to Xhan's answer. "But you're already exceptional... what's driving you?"

Xhan's expression remained impassive. "Nothing, just personal goals."

The clan's confusion grew as Xhan's training intensified. They had never seen him so focused, so driven. Whispers circulated: "What's behind Xhan's sudden fervor?" "Is he preparing for a battle?" But Xhan remained tight-lipped.

Only the mysterious voice knew the truth. Xhan's power was growing, and with it, his sense of purpose. He felt an unshakeable connection to Liang Wei, though their paths had yet to cross.

As sunset painted the sky, Xhan's movements became more intricate, his energy building. The air seemed to vibrate with his intensity. Clan members felt the shift, their eyes drawn to Xhan's mesmerizing display.

Suddenly, Xhan's eyes locked onto something distant. His stance changed, poised for action. The clan followed his gaze but saw nothing.

"What is it, Xhan?" Ning asked, alarm creeping into his voice.

Xhan's focus broke, his eyes returning to the present. "Nothing... just lost in thought."

The clan exchanged skeptical glances. Xhan's secrecy only deepened their curiosity.

That night, Xhan meditated, seeking clarity on his power and its connection to Liang Wei. The mysterious voice remained silent, leaving Xhan to unravel the mysteries alone.

In the stillness, Xhan's thoughts crystallized: his power, Liang Wei, and the impending darkness. The threads of fate were weaving together, and Xhan stood at the center, ready to face whatever lay ahead.

With determination burning within, Xhan rose from meditation, his eyes burning brighter than the stars above.

The Hualing clan slumbered, unaware of the transformation taking place within their midst. Xhan, once a skilled warrior, was evolving into something more – a guardian, a protector, and a force against the looming darkness.

As the night wore on, Xhan's resolve strengthened: he would master his power, find Liang Wei, and confront the shadows head-on.
