Rudra was back at the manor of the sisters, he had shut himself inside his room as he tried to cultivate Ice Phoenix Qi.The Omniscient Eye helped him speed up the process as he could see the bluish-white Qi entering his body and circulating around it.
The blue phoenix blood globules would radiate whenever the Ice Qi pa.s.sed through them.
After a few hours, he finally broke through the first stage of Qi Condensation as he felt a bit of Ice Qi enter his Dantian.
"Yes, finally!" Rudra laughed as he stood up from his meditative position.
He was eager to quickly change his body when suddenly Iclyn bolted into the room causing him to freak out and chokehold her by her neck.
"Oh, it"s you!" Rudra said as he released his grip, causing her to lay limp on the bed he was standing beside.
Cough!
Cough!
Iclyn stared daggers at him as she coughed. Iclyn breathed in the air as she felt the pain in her neck subside never would she had thought that a boy who had no sign of Qi in his body would feel her afraid for her life.
Rudra feeling bad could only rub the back of his head awkwardly, "Sorry about that, ahem! did you need something from me!"
"I had come here hoping to bring you the news that you would be admitted into the Sect"s Body refining hall, despite you being already so old, but it seems you are not a mere mortal."
"Oh!" Rudra realized that these sisters had wanted to admit him into the Body refining hall of the Spirit Ice sect where little kids were made to practice simple body strengthening techniques like punches and kicks and focused on familiarizing the kids to their elemental affinity.
"Like a preschool" Rudra muttered.
Cough!
Rudra looked at Iclyn holding her neck where a clear palm mark could be seen.
"Are you a body cultivator?" Iclyn asked rubbing her neck with her hands.
"No, Didn"t Eira already tell you?" Rudra looked at her puzzlingly.
"No, she said you were just a mortal who wanted to help, being swept in the frenzy. But you were able to brave your life to save my sister at the last moment saving both her and Elder Gian." Iclyn calmly said realizing that her sister had hidden some information from her.
"Well, it doesn"t matter as I was able to cultivate the Ice Qi finally," Rudra said as a burst of Qi spread out from his palm.
"Ice Phoenix Qi! How?" The surprised Iclyn jumped to her feet moving towards him until she came very close to him albeit she was still busy observing the Qi unaware of Rudra who was very close to her.
Rudra smelled the flowery scent coming from her body as the wind carried her smell she suddenly looked up at his face.
"Why do you have the Ice Phoenix Qi?" Iclyn asked with a serious voice causing the intoxicated look on his face to disappear as he answered with a shrug,
"I don"t know, I don"t remember anything that happened there."
"I don"t even remember saving your sister" Rudra continued as he stopped the Qi flowing from his palm.
Iclyn fell in thought once again, after a while she looked at him seriously as she suggested,
"You could get into a lot of trouble you must hide the fact that you have, Wait do you also have the blood of her majesty?"
"If you mean the blue blood, then yes." Rudra was also aware of the potential trouble he could get in the Spirit Ice Sect if he strutted around the sect carrying their best inheritance all while not being a an actual sect member.
"You must join the Spirit Ice Sect." Iclyn looked at him waiting for an answer.
"I can"t join the Spirit Ice Sect, I have my own life."
"But you carry the blood of her majesty and you must deliver the duty you owe her I will kill you personally if I have to stop the blood of her majesty to fall out..." Iclyn said as she waved her hand covering the whole room into snow and ice golems who surrounded Rudra.
"Speak your next words very carefully!" Iclyn warned
"f.u.c.k" Rudra cursed at the sudden escalation
"Wrong answer!"
A blue light flashed and the whole building quaked.
BANG!
Rudra dodged to the side as an ice spear whizzed towards him.
"Okay okay I don"t wanna fight you, But I will join the Spirit Ice Sect but I must have my freedom to roam around the land." Rudra hastily said as he saw the attacks coming at him from all the sides.
"Good! Now Accept me as your master!"
"Are you out of your mind!" Rudra cursed but as soon as these words left his mouth he knew he f.u.c.ked up.
BANG!
After a few hours of beating the bruised up, Rudra finally caved in,
"Yes Master, I will be under your guidance."
