Celestial Peak

"The wastes of a young master actually gained his own mind? Didn"t doctors say that it will be impossible? Seems like the luck of General w.a.n.g Shu Qing is br.i.m.m.i.n.g!"

"Haha, the w.a.n.g Clan"s young master gaining his own self-awareness is not our concern. I may be happy for the General but I won"t expect much for a man who only learned how to eat by himself for a weeks."

"w.a.n.g Ling of the w.a.n.g Clan could talk and move on his own now? Now that"s something interesting. But are you sure that this information is true?"

"Yes, I wouldn"t believe even if others beat me to death. But word came from Physician Mo himself, so it must be true. He had been examining w.a.n.g Ling for a few days now and according to rumors, w.a.n.g Ling is actually a fast learner."

The whole capital was in an uproar, many had their own opinions about the situation but one fact lingered in the air. It was the perfect moment to kiss up to the w.a.n.g family.

Gifts from various households flooded the w.a.n.g family as they tried to show their good will. Although, hey have yet to see the young master, many of the Azure Skies n.o.ble families still handed out gifts.

A man becoming self-aware after nineteen years of silence may sound surprising. But, the n.o.bles who handed out gifts couldn"t care less about w.a.n.g Ling"s well-being.

They were only giving gifts to w.a.n.g Ling so they can keep a healthy relations.h.i.+p with the w.a.n.g family.

No matter what others say, w.a.n.g Shu Qing was someone who possess power to shake the entire Kingdom. Although he only rose to prominence a couple of decades ago, he was a genius who single handedly built the w.a.n.g Clan to where it was today.

Before w.a.n.g Shu Qing became a general, the w.a.n.g Clan was already in a decline with most of its immediate family members dead.

However, with the power of one man, w.a.n.g Shu Qing single-handedly carried the name of the w.a.n.g family on his shoulders.

w.a.n.g Shu Qing"s tales were as glorious as the "former w.a.n.g Ling" in the heart of the Azure Skies Kingdom citizens.

w.a.n.g Ling who was the center of this uproar, couldn"t care less about this kind of things though.

The story of his father may sound brilliant, but he had grown tired of hearing them since ten years ago. While w.a.n.g Ling"s soul may have slept for nineteen years, most of the words and sight that his body came across all those time were inside his brain.

w.a.n.g Ling"s previous self may not have any kind of sentience, but it had enough capabilities to record information about his surroundings.

However, w.a.n.g Ling have no interest on useless banter and talks of n.o.bility. The only thing he has interest in was cultivation and knowledge about the changes about the realm.

The realm had changed. The spirit qi in the surrounding was much more bountiful, in comparison to the previous eras denseness of spirit qi, the gap was clear.

w.a.n.g Ling"s courtyard.

Sitting on to of his bed, w.a.n.g Ling observed the properties of spirit qi around him and made conjectures on its effect if he cultivate now with his current body.

[Even without a [Spirit Qi Gathering Array] the denseness is truly magnificent.]

w.a.n.g Ling said to himself. He played and examined the spirit qi and tested it many times. As he was playing, a knocked suddenly came from outside.

"Young Master, are you awake?"

It was w.a.n.g Yue"s voice. w.a.n.g Ling, smiled and answered back.

"You can come in."

When he said that, the door opened and a young girl entered his room. The girl was cute, she had big round eyes, rosy cheeks, flowing black hair and frail looking limbs. Of course, the one who entered his room was his little sister, w.a.n.g Yue.

"It has been a month since you first spoke, you have been getting better at it, Young Master." w.a.n.g Yue praised, before continuing, "Butler Sun said that it you should go and have your breakfast."

w.a.n.g Ling only smiled at what she had said. He then got up from his bed and beckoned her to lead the way.

It had been a month since his soul awoke. For the past few days since he had awoken, he slowly managed to look like he was adapting to his surroundings.

On the second week, he made it look like he was able to move properly and his body was regaining strength. On the third week he made it look like he could speak properly and even read.

Although his rate of supposed learning was quick, the two old experts said that what was happening was quite understandable.

Physician Mo said that w.a.n.g Ling was actually starting to catch up to his surroundings and is merely recalling what he had been taught in the past.

When w.a.n.g Ling heard the old man"s idea, he supported it by saying that he was quite familiar with the contents of the books and the words he spoke was also familiar.

His exact words were: "I don"t really… get it either but… every time I read or see something… I remember a lady calling herself my mother… teaching me… I am merely recalling her words."

w.a.n.g Ling"s words was like a rock thrown into a river. The ripples it caused gave the two old farts ideas and proved what Physician Mo had proposed.

Of course w.a.n.g Ling was sure about what he was talking about. In the past, about 14 years ago when he was 5. w.a.n.g Ling was sure that his Mother taught him some words.

"My child, this how you write."

"You read this as "Red River Border."

She also taught him some phrases and even manners.

"This is how you interact with a woman."

"This is how you court a woman."

"This is… a woman."

At that time, w.a.n.g Ling"s soul and mind was still asleep so he was not able to appreciate what her teachings. But now that he had regained his consciousness, he was feeling warmth inside his heart.

Well, he did have some questions about the lesson his mother gave him, like; "Why was the lesson about speaking and manners connected to a woman?" this question lingers inside his head.

All in all, w.a.n.g Ling had been able to avoid questioning gazes from other people. He had also been getting more comfortable with this new life of his.

w.a.n.g Ling went out of his room and walked together with his sister. From time to time his eyes will watch his sister as he found her movement truly adorable. Aside from finding it cute he was rather curious as to why he was not able to feel any kind of spirit qi around her.

[Does she not cultivate?]

He thought as he found such an action truly weird. Cultivation was a way of life in the Celestial Spirit Realm. Power was everything and those who does not have enough strength will get trampled by those who have the capability.

This kind of thought was taken from the past till now. Even today, wars are being wage all over the realm. With his father being a refutable General, w.a.n.g Ling found it weird why w.a.n.g Yue doesn"t cultivate.

Unable to make any solid conjectures about the matter, he looked at w.a.n.g Yue and asked.

"w.a.n.g Yue, do you cultivate spirit qi?"

w.a.n.g Yue was taken aback to hear her big brother asks something like that. She though that he knew about her unique condition and was actually making fun of her, but upon reflecting some more, she realized that w.a.n.g Ling was just curious.

"No I don"t, Young Master." w.a.n.g Yue shook her head disappointingly.

w.a.n.g Ling found her reaction kind of surprising and wanted to ask some more. But he thought that the topic was somewhat sensitive to the little girl, so he chose not to say anything.

He only smiled and gently placed his hand on w.a.n.g Yue"s head.

"Why are you so sad? It"s fine if you don"t cultivate spirit qi. I am also the same as you." w.a.n.g Ling said as he tried cheering her up. But when he turned his gaze over to w.a.n.g Yue, he found that her expression was even more downcast.

Seeing this, he was sure that there was something more going on about w.a.n.g Yue not cultivating.

[Is father not letting her cultivate? Or is mother?

Either way, not cultivating isn"t really that bad, but she"s going to have a harder time living in the future.]

w.a.n.g Ling was well aware of the hards.h.i.+ps when one delves in the world of cultivators. The bloodshed and tribulations he had experience in the past was something that made him what he was today after all.

For someone to live comfortably in the world of cultivation, one would need strength. He was sure that his father was aware of this, so there was no reason why w.a.n.g Yue not to cultivate.

[I"ll just ask Butler Sun about this matter.]

With that in mind he quietly walked towards the dining area so he could eat breakfast. It didn"t take long for w.a.n.g Ling to reach the dining area. The dining area of the w.a.n.g family was designed with simplicity in mind.

It was a large room with no particular design and there was a table and chairs neatly arranged in the middle of the room. Although it was designed like so, the surrounding atmosphere had a refres.h.i.+ng feeling to it.

"Young Master, there you are."

Butler Sun saw w.a.n.g Ling and flashed him a smile. w.a.n.g Ling and w.a.n.g Yue pa.s.sed by Butler Sun and simultaneously sat down to eat.

Breakfast in the w.a.n.g family was always delicious. Today, his breakfast was a soup based on a savage beast called Red Savage Turquoise and a plate of Savage Green Wyvern meat, both savage beast were sky root-level in their cultivation.

Food like this was always full of spirit qi that"s beneficial to a cultivator. w.a.n.g Ling ate with great appet.i.te and finished everything in front of him almost instantaneously. The meat of Savage Green Wyvern was rather heavy, but partnered with the soup base on the Black Turquoise made it easier to digest.

w.a.n.g Ling drank some tea before looking forward. In front of him was w.a.n.g Yue who was still eating her food. Ever since w.a.n.g Ling became self-aware, he had been eating with w.a.n.g Yue.

When he first ate with her, she was also the one who finished eating last. Not that she was a slow eater, no, far from that. It was because the serving of her food was at least five times more compared to w.a.n.g Ling.

It had to be noted that what w.a.n.g Ling had eaten was enough to make cultivator full and have enough energy for the whole day, but it was clear that w.a.n.g Yue was different from normal people.

The serving she needed to consume was five times more compared to others. The concentration of energy inside these foods was huge, so one had to ask where she was using these energy and how can her frail looking body can withstand this abnormality.

It truly does make one wonder, if her ridiculous appet.i.te was the reason why she was abandoned in the first place.

[w.a.n.g Yue is a pretty interesting la.s.s.]

w.a.n.g Ling nodded his head with delight. It would seem that the family he was blessed with in this life was rather interesting in many sense.

A mother who teaches a five year old child how to court a woman and a little sister who has the capability of devouring five serving of food without any problem.

Finis.h.i.+ng his meal, w.a.n.g Ling left the dining area. But before doing so, he asked Butler Sun about w.a.n.g Yue"s situation, why she doesn"t cultivate.

"Young Master wants to know why the Young Miss is unable to cultivate."

"Yes, from what I had read from the books in the family library, cultivation is something important. So I"m concerned why my Yue is not cultivating."

Butler Sun was surprise to know w.a.n.g Ling had any interest in learning this kind of matter, however, the old butler of the w.a.n.g family found it good that the Young Master was learning how to care about others.

[This is good. The masters will be delighted to learn that the Young Master is "growing up" to be a good person!]

With the idea of "nurturing" the kindness inside w.a.n.g Ling"s heart and mind, Butler Sun chose to explain the details of w.a.n.g Yue to see if there would be some reaction on w.a.n.g Ling"s part.

"You see, the Young Miss has a unique const.i.tution. Her body is unable to absorb spirit qi, what"s more is that her qi pillars is sealed and most of the internal paths of her spirit qi is clogged. Both Physician Mo and Alchemist Yu had examined her before and they said the Young Miss must have suffered some kind of "injuries" which resulted into traumas before she was found by the Master in the Southern Border Garrison…"

Butler Sun explained what he knew about w.a.n.g Yue with great detail. At first he as trying to see what"s going to reaction w.a.n.g Lin will make, but halfway through the explanation, even he felt depress for w.a.n.g Yue.

Fir such an unfortunate event to happen to such a young girl, it was truly too heartbreaking. Sneaking a peek how w.a.n.g Ling will react, Butler noticed that his reaction was actually unchanged.

[No reaction!?]

Before Butler Sun could even comment any further about w.a.n.g Ling"s lack of reaction, the other party already spoke.

"Thank you for explaining the matter to me, Butler Sun."

Without wasting any more time about something as wasteful as speaking. w.a.n.g Ling left the dining area and went directly to the library. While walking, his mouth curved into a smile and thought of something interesting.

[Well, the condition of w.a.n.g Yue will have to be put aside for now. I first need to worry about myself before others,]

Flas.h.i.+ng a smile, w.a.n.g Ling reached the library entered it with a good mood.
