Hongyun record's appraisal

"Senior brother, are you the missing son of fairy Yu Lanxin?", Li Ting exclaimed in surprise. Yan Mei tapped lightly on her shoulder and made a silence gesture with her other hand. She turned her head to look back at Xie Long who was frighteningly calm after seeing the information.

A chilly aura came out of Xie Long's body and both Yan Mei and Li Ting shivered slightly. A solemn expression appeared on elder Hong's face as he looked at Xie Long's forehead.

At some point some indistinct runes had appeared on Xie Long's forehead. The surrounding area grew a shade darker as those runes appeared on Xie Long's forehead.

Both Li Ting and Yan Mei let go of Xie Long's hands unconsciously. The current Xie Long felt both unfamiliar and foreign to them.

"Poisoning my mother. Killing grandpa Jie, this enmity is irreconcilable. Yu clan, I will make you pay. Those who have harmed my mother will bear all the torture this world has to offer", Xie Long murmured. His anger was shimmering but he knew he couldn't lose control in such a place. He tried to calm down himself but his anger was so much that the environment became more darker and chilly as seconds passed.

"Senior brother, don't be like this. My grandpa can definitely clear aunt Lanxin's poison", Li Ting grabbed a corner of Xie Long's cloth and spoke softly. She was very much frightened by Xie Long's current aura but she still gathered her courage and spoke to Xie Long.

"Little Ting, I am sorry. I couldn't control myself", Xie Long turned to look at Li Ting. He felt extremely apologetic after seeing her appearance. The runes on his forehead gradually disappeared as he calmed down. He finally turned to his normal self after a while.

"Little friend, do you want to purchase any other information?", elder Hong inquired. Xie Long noticed that his voice had become lot friendlier compared to his earlier indifferent attitude.

"No need. I will ask about the Yu clan after meeting my mother", Xie Long replied. Compared to his earlier outburst, he felt very composed and calm at this moment.

"Little brother, can you wait for a while? I want to have a chat with grandpa Hong", Yan Mei spoke.

"Okay, I will wait outside with little Ting", Xie Long spoke. He gave Yan Mei some privacy and walked outside alongwith Li Ting.

"Grandpa Hong, why have you sent me a mental message earlier? Is it about little brother Long?", Yan Mei looked towards elder Hong.

"Little girl, this Xie Long is a true monster. Even the Hongyun record seems very afraid of his potential", elder Hong spoke to Yan Mei with a solemn expression on his face. The full name of elder Hong was Hong Wei. Yan Mei had never seen such a serious expression on elder Hong Wei's face in her entire life.

"The Hongyun record? Why would it be afraid of little brother Long?", Yan Mei asked with a confused expression on her face.

"Little Mei, you seem to be not aware about a major function of the Hongyun record. Besides storing information, it can see through a cultivator's potential. As long as it found a supreme genius with a good potential, it would alert the the elder incharge of the Hongyun record. Besides that, it would record information about them and share the record with all the Hongyun pavilions across the world", Hong Wei explained.

"It is such a major matter. Why have I never heard of such instances when a supreme genius is found by the Hongyun record?", Yan Mei looked towards elder Hong with a baffled expression.

"It is because none in this backwater area is able to attract the attention of the Hongyun record. It is no secret that all the replicas of Hongyun record are connected with the original Hongyun record from the headquarter. So, a cultivator to be termed a genius in headquarter, can't be an ordinary cultivator", Hong Wei spoke.

"The what about little brother Long? Can he be placed among those heavenly geniuses from the headquarter?", Yan Mei asked with an expectant expression on her face.

"As I have said this Xie Long is a monster. Even the Hongyun record seems to be afraid of him", Hong Wei spoke. He closed his eyes and channeled his energy into the stone platform.

The Hongyun record floated into the air and pages started to turn one after another. The pages stopped turning when a page with the name Xie Long shown up. Words floated out from the page and a projection of information appeared infront of Yan Mei.

"Main branch has felt an extremely ominous aura from him. His bloodline is excellent, cultivation potential is amazing. All the members of Hongyun pavilions should be careful of him.

Hongyun pavilions can only be a friend and not an enemy to him. From now on, only core members of the Hongyun pavilions will have access to his information. Outsiders are not allowed to view any information about him."

Yan Mei fell into a stupor after seeing this information. She had never thought that the Hongyun pavilion would be so cautious of an eighteen year old young man.

"Little Mei, be very careful around him. His background may not appear much to your eyes but his grandfather is a truly terrifying cultivator. Only because he has gone missing that the imperial family and Yu clan dare to bully his daughter. But they are truly unlucky. Now someone more monstrous than Yu Tianlei has set his sights on them", Hong Wei spoke.

Grandpa Hong, you know I do not have much talent in cultivation but I have a pair of discerning eyes. Since my first conversation with him, I feel like I can trust him. Now, I do not need to be cautious. It is other way around. Those who dare to bully me will have to deal with my little brother", Yan Mei replied. Others may be worried about how to deal with Xie Long but she was least concerned. She felt happy and proud because she had choosen Xie Long as her little brother.

"Little girl, no one can match you in wisdom and vision. When you brought us along with your father to this backwater place, some of us felt very disgruntled and unhappy. But now your efforts are getting paid off. We have grown stronger since then and your father may soon reach a new height in his cultivation path.

Adding to this, we now have Xie Long as our ally who can slay multiple Yuan transformation realm cultivators while being at first stage of the Meridian opening realm. Such a thing was unheard of. I thought he was at the peak of the Meridian opening realm. At the first stage of Meridian opening realm, his aura can match that of a peak Meridian opening realm cultivator. All of us would have underestimated his potential without the information from the Hongyun record. This brat is truly a monster. As long as he can grows up safely, he will reach a greater height than all of us", Hong Wei spoke.
