While Ling Ai was uneasy, she heard Zhuanxu YeBai say,"Today starts your new journey Ling Ai." While he was staring from afar.
"What do you mean by that?" Ling Ai curiously asked.
"I have received a gift from the heavens since I was born that let me see sixty miles far away. But now, since my spiritual chi restriction is not yet removed. I can only see two kilometers far with just my eyes. Convenient isn"t it?"
"Woah yes, that"s already a lot even if you mean to tell that it"s effect diminished. And yeah, anyone would want to have those eyes." Ling Ai nods her head agreeing to Zhuanxu YeBai.
"It"s really convenient that"s why I"ll transfer this to you at the right time."
"Transfer to me your Heavenly gift? Why would you go to such extent? Just what did you saw earlier that your face turned displeased?" Ling Ai walked closer to Zhuanxu YeBai standing at a cliff near the hill and raised her brow as she was being curious about what he was thinking.
"Let me ask you this first. Do you believe someone was born to be evil? That right from where they were born, they were already destined to be the devil? I"ll have to clarify things now as you are my first disciple and the weight of the responsibility I"m giving you will be as heavy as leading a country."
"A responsibility weighing that of a country? Umm... Are you giving me a country now? Haha, that sure was fast."
"....."
Zhuanxu YeBai just stared her intently as he was serious on what he will pa.s.s unto Ling Ai.
"I"m sorry Master. I"m just trying to lift up the mood and atmosphere. About evil... For me, I don"t believe someone was born evil since every child in the beginning was born with purity and innocence. It is from growing and encountering life that one"s innocence towards life will either be stained by l.u.s.t, greed or evil. And that"s where people differ from it, we get to have different situations in life, status, family, and places where we were born and raised. So my answer to that question Master is no. No, because what I believe is that evil people were created or was influenced by someone greater than them like what we are doing now, me as your disciple." Ling Ai thoroughly explained her point of view to Zhuanxu YeBai"s question as she was sincere in her belief.
"Hmm... Well said Ling Ai. No wonder my Heavenly gift is choosing you as the inheritor. I was born from the strongest and richest country that my father ruled. The name of the country is Celestine lands, not only that it was the strongest and the richest but it was also the largest of all. It"s a Supreme country composed of another twenty countries. While Raven country can"t even compare to even the smallest country inside the Celestine lands, this country is just a small field compared to it. The reason why it"s called the Celestine lands country is that inside from its boundaries were another strong and n.o.ble countries that they considered capitals of Celestine lands. As what you"ve said, that evil people were influenced and raised by someone greater. Myself is a result of that. High positioned names who knew me deeply named me as the Most Evil Emperor of the white countries and spread rumors about it to the people."
"What do you mean you"re known as the Most Evil Emperor of the white countries? What are the white countries? I can"t believe it. So if Raven country is just like a small field compared to the smallest capital of the Celestine lands country, then this small village would most likely be a speck of dirt or even non-existent to them." Ling Ai was utterly surprised from hearing the reality of the world outside the Raven country.
_haahh
Zhuanxu YeBai sighed.
"You do understand now why I said those things, right? Because I just want to say what"s the reality. That compared to them, commoners in Raven country are just like ants. But of course, people without the knowledge that Celestine lands exist tend to be proud that they are living in the capital of Raven country. There are colors that represent the strength of one"s chi aura, it is white, orange, blue, red, purple, and black. It is also used to determine the strength of a country, white countries as the weakest. And the Supreme country Celestine lands is a black country."
"Th-they are that strong?! Then why... How... Why are you called the Most Evil Emperor of white countries? Is there another one? Like the Most Evil Emperor of black countries? Wait! Is there really-...?" Ling Ai realized staring at the despairing look on Zhuanxu YeBai"s eyes that there is someone greater than him.
"Yes, what you"re thinking is right. The true Most Evil Emperor is my father. The ruler of the four black countries of Floresia continent."
When Ling Ai heard it, she felt shivers down her spine. She didn"t thought or imagine that there is really someone greater than Zhuanxu YeBai.
"My father"s friends were also Emperors of different continents and they decided to call me the Most Evil Emperor of white countries because I"m his son. Other than that and the rumors, I don"t know why. Maybe I just brought with me an arrogant and prideful self but I... I didn"t kill someone yet, all the rumors were wrong. Yes, I can destroy a country as fast as a blink of an eye but that"s just limited to white and orange countries. And no, I didn"t eradicate even a single existence of my entire life yet. I just used my skill "fade" to make weaklings I encounter unconscious." After saying those things to Ling Ai, Zhuanxu YeBai shook his head thinking about when will his spiritual chi restriction end as he really needs it now. But he placed hope on her and relied everything now to his first disciple, Ling Ai.
"I see, I get it now. You"re not really evil, you"re just a haughty bear. So what is it that you want me to do? What is the responsibility that you will give me Master Zhuanxu YeBai?" Ling Ai was happy deep inside knowing that his Master was not really evil and at the same time she was about to have a new goal in her life, a sense of purpose.
"There you go again, calling me names. A haughty bear? Haha!" Zhuanxu YeBai laughed a bit but held it in.
"I just tried to make you smile, because you look really ugly when you"re frowning. But when you smile... You look so so." Ling Ai with a smile on her face walked beside Zhuanxu YeBai facing the view of peaceful nature from the Evening Paradise hill they were staying.
"So so? Hmph... You"re just holding yourself back in saying I"m really good-looking and handsome. I even saw you one time facing the reflection of the water to check your face because you thought I was sleeping. I wonder why? Because as of now, I"m clearly aware that we still have exchanged bodies. So... Do you happen to like m-"
_bahh!
Ling Ai punched his stomach to hinder what he was about to say.
"Y-you just punched a delicate woman"s body!" Zhuanxu YeBai knelt down and coughed breathlessly.
"I punched a woman? Or a bear inside a woman"s body?"
They both stared each other with peculiar faces trying to contain something inside them and ignoring the humor of the situation.
"....."
"...?"
_pfft
But they couldn"t hold it in anymore and bursted laughing their lungs out.
"Hahahaha you are one hilarious bug!"
"Hahahah-"
"Bug?"
"I"m sorry I didn"t mean that."
"....."
"Hahahaha!"
"Hahahaha.."
Zhuanxu YeBai got up from the ground and said,
"Follow me Ling Ai, let"s go hunt something to eat before I continue telling you everything. Let"s go!"
"Sounds good to me. Aye aye captain!"
"Captain? Captain bear?"
"Hahahaha!"
"Hahahaha!"
Zhuanxu YeBai and Ling Ai started to grow fond and comfortable with each other from their six days of being together.
***************
Evening came. Both of them sitting beside a bonfire and filled their stomachs with grilled fishes.
"Ling Ai." Zhuanxu YeBai said sincerely.
"Yes Master."

"I will train you for one month now and after one month, your real quest will begin. Now, stand. I will make you understand more, that"s why I will now transfer to you this Heavenly eyes." Zhuanxu YeBai was determined to give his Heavenly eyes to his first disciple.
"are you really sure you"re giving your Heavenly eyes to me now? What if, what if... I"m not? Deserving? And that you just made a mistake in choosing me?" Ling Ai was worried that she won"t be able to meet the expectations of Zhuanxu YeBai.
"No, I felt it since day one. The pain on my eyes like it was meant to be yours. I believe Heavenly gifts are never mistaken to whomever it chooses. Right now, because of meditating at the red dragon"s hot spring, the spiritual chi restriction to me has broken some parts. That is why it allowed me to release chi with one of your body"s six chi points and I was able to kill the giant xenodermus. And this time, I"ll use it to perform Heavenly arts."
An Immense chi suddenly emitted from Zhuanxu YeBai. It grows stronger and brighter. After a few seconds, it became orange chi. Then it turned blue. The blue chi aura emitted by Zhuanxu YeBai was as big as a mountain.
"a blue chi aura?! With using only one chi point? How strong is this guy..." Ling Ai can"t help but wonder how strong Zhuanxu YeBai is without his cultivation being drained and restricted.
"This is enough chi for me to cast it. Heavenly arts! Spiritual Heaven treasure transfer! Eyes of divinity!"
_iiiiinngg
A shrilling sound was heard and a very bright light flashed the entire Evening Paradise hill and the clouds in the sky opened and released a beam of light towards Ling Ai"s eyes and all of it has been absorbed.
The light was gone and Zhuanxu YeBai sprawled across the ground huffing as his chi ran out.
"Haha, it"s better this way. The Most Evil Emperor is gone."
"We are the warriors of Luban sect personally a.s.signed by the New Emperor of the five white countries to temporarily patrol this place."
"Our Emperor is dead? The Most Evil Emperor?"
"Then who is our new Emperor?"
"I"ve heard that our new Emperor is like a G.o.d, he is an angel, unlike our old Emperor that was a devil."
"If you do have any questions you can proceed to the Luban camp near the capital"s gate."
"Yes, what"s great is that the New Emperor already implemented an annual Martial arts compet.i.tion in Raven country"s capital, the Black Crow City. It will happen two months from now. And he will reward us greatly to those who will just join, what more of becoming the winner?"
"I heard that the qualification for joining the Black Crow City compet.i.tion is to be one of the top 10 winners from any of the ten sects of the Black Crow City."
"Ha! You will surely win that compet.i.tion and represent Luban sect to the whole Raven country. You might even have a chance to be an inner disciple of the New Emperor, Luban sect"s great Aiguo Zhang."
"Heh! I already know that. No sweat. Someday, I"ll be the most famous Martial artist in Raven country!"
"I-I can see people clearly from afar?! And I can even hear them! Zhuanxu YeBai this Heavenly treasure you gave me is surging with chi! Also, I heard what the people in the Luban sect was saying." Ling Ai was so shocked that her eyes can now see two kilometers far so clearly and audible like her soul flew at the place and listened to them talking.
Ling Ai lived from a small village that has no name. But they were still part of the Luban Sect.
"So you now understand why I decided to give you the eyes of divinity? Because it would cost me less talk and I would eventually give it to you so it doesn"t really matter giving it to you sooner." Zhuanxu YeBai recovered and stood up.
"Yes, I now get it. So I have a question Zhuanxu YeBai. Why did they suddenly replace you? Was it that easy to replace an Emperor?" Ling Ai had no idea what she heard about the Most Evil Emperor, Zhuanxu YeBai, getting replaced by a New Emperor and was so curious to know about it.
"This.."
"What do you mean by this?" Ling Ai shrugged as she has no idea what he was saying.
"This is the result of it, our exchanged bodies. At first, I thought I was going to die and maybe reincarnate. But I didn"t expect it to turn out this way."
"Our exchanged bodies? By the way, what did really caused our situation? Did you trigger something for this to happen?" Ling Ai raised her brow curiously.
"Yes, my father planned my downfall. When I got down the core of that hidden cave. Out of nowhere, an ancient legendary seal appeared and drained my cultivation. After I woke up I"m already inside your body. My father knew all of this. Think of it Ling Ai, how can I retaliate if my cultivation is drained that I need to go back at the very beginning to level up again. It"s fine for me that way, but what"s worse is that I"m also spiritually chi restricted. Meaning, even if I transfer from one body to one another, I can"t still use any chi at all. I was just lucky some parts of the spiritual chi restriction has been broken because of the red dragon hot spring, that"s why I can use one chi point of your body."
"But... but why would your very own father do that to you?" Ling Ai wondered as she was hearing something new and she"s unfamiliar with.
"Because he"s the Devil."
