Not A Cultivator

"Tell me! Where did you get that ring?"

Feng Ao Xiu was confused. He just wakes up, his head was still not clear, "Who are you?"

The old man angrily stomped on the ground, his aura discharged radiantly. The atmosphere suddenly changed, it made Feng Ao Xiu feel afraid.

The spot he stomped on cracked and the earth shakes for a few seconds. His voice reverberated as he said, "Kid! Don"t make me angry! Tell me where you get that ring before I kill you!"

[This man is too strong! Who is this old man!?]

Feng Ao Xiu understood that this old man was the one he"s looking for. He needed to be kind to this old man so he would help him and Little Ren gets out of here.

"Grandmaster, I get this ring from one of the skeletons over there." Feng Ao Xiu politely said,

The old man sighed, his eyes showed a hint of sadness. It has been two years since his disciple went missing.

He put a Qi Intent in his disciple"s storage ring, as long as the Qi was activated, he could know where is it. But his disciple has gone missing and never used it to contact him, only now he received the signal.

He travelled all the way down here, hoping that his disciple would still be alive. But, all he found was someone else, and unfortunately, his disciple has died.

The old man takes his time staring at the piles of skeletons on the grounds.

Meanwhile, Little Ren asked, "Xiu, who is that old man?"

"I don"t know, but I called him here..."

"You called him?"

Feng Ao Xiu nodded, "I"ll explain it later... Anyway, This old man is our only hope! He is too strong that he can control his aura freely despite being suppressed by the Dark Cloud Ravine. He"s our ticket way out of here..."

Little Ren widened her eyed. Her dark complexion brightened in an instant.

Back in the pile of skeletons, the old man took another sigh while shooking his head, he did not even know which one was his disciple. He turned back to Feng Ao Xiu, "Kid! Give me back that ring now!"

Feng Ao Xiu immediately returns the ring back to the old man. Then he asked the old man politely, "Grandmaster, I have a favour to ask of you. Would you please get us out of here?"

Of course, the old man already realized that the two of them are trapped inside. He put his chin on his hands and said, "Oh! Why should I help you?"

Feng Ao Xiu creased his eyebrow at the old man"s word. He knew someone so powerful would not help without reward. But, this old man was too powerful to receive anything, what gift would satisfy him?

"One million gold taels!"

"I don"t need money."

"Legendary pills and medicine!"

"Haahaa... I have too much at home!"

"What would this Grandmaster like?"

"I don"t know. Surprise me!"

Feng Ao Xiu gritted his teeth again.

[We are doomed! This old man didn"t want anything, he will not help us even if we give him everything!]

Feng Ao Xiu became desperate, "Please I"m strong! I"m an Iron Mortal Realm! Use me whatever you like! Just, please save us!"

The old man laughed, "It looks like you don"t have anything. I"m sorry, but I will not help... Wait! Iron Mortal Realm!?"

The old man controls his Qi Aura and slowly made its way toward Feng Ao Xiu. Then, his eyes sparkled.

[A young Iron Mortal Realm from the lower realm... Must be a genius! Hmmm... What"s this!? The legendary lightning spirit! I can"t believe this!]

"Okay, I"ll save both of you!"

Feng Ao Xiu"s face becomes bright, "Really!?"

"But, you have to acknowledge me as your master!"

Feng Ao Xiu actually does not want any master, but it"s his only choice. What"s important now was not himself but Little Ren.

Feng Ao Xiu kneeled and cupped his hand, "Master! Please accept me as your disciple!"

The old man nodded, "Good! Let"s go to the Upper Realm immediately! We don"t have much time, the gate will close soon!"

"So sudden. What"s the upper realm!?"

"It"s the place far away from here. Say your goodbye to the little girl!"

Little Ren cried, "No! Xiu will come with me, he promised he will stay with me! Wuuhuuhuuuu..."

Feng Ao Xiu sighed, he hugs Little Ren, "Little Ren, Don"t cry! I will definitely come back!"

Little Ren tears slowed down, she sniffed, "Promise?"

"Yes!"

"Xiu, when you come back, will you fulfil your promise to marry me?"

Feng Ao Xiu smiles. He really likes this little girl. "Yes!"

As Promised, the old man brought Little Ren to the nearest village.

Then, Feng Ao Xiu left with his new master to the upper realm.

Feng Zhong Tian, Qian Hui, and Qian Lu clap, "Such a great story!"

Little Chi also screamed, "Good story! Good story!"

"Wait!" Feng Zhong Tian said. "You haven"t told us how you called that old man in the first place?"

The other focused their attention back to Feng Ao Xiu.

"You guys don"t know? Even after I gave you so many hints?" Feng Ao Xiu said.

"Just tell us!"

"Basically, what I did is only throw the storage ring high into the air."

"Huh... That"s it!?"

"The Dark Cloud Ravine only hinders the human body, so does the invisible wall that hinders me from climbing. So, I threw the rings into the air. After the ring was out of the ravine"s boundary, which is above the invisible wall, the Qi intent finally works and communicate with the outside world."

"Of course, I did not only throw one ring but all of them. Considering we found nine rings, it was already lucky that one worked and contacted that old man."

"I never knew that the Dark Cloud Ravine hold such a devastating curse and such weakness..." Feng Zhong Tian said.

"I"m just glad that I never got on board to train with the Second Young Master..." Qian Hui said.

Feng Ao Xiu nodded, "Remember this weakness clearly if you somehow got thrown inside the Dark Cloud Ravine, don"t hesitate to use this method."

Feng Zhong Tian, Qian Hui, and Little Chi nodded. They understood and took this lesson at heart. Of course, Qian Lu did not understand but nodded along.

However, in the middle of the story, Princess Ming stopped listening. She was touching her head and thinking hard about something.

[Hmm... Qiao An heard this story before... Qiao An also heard about Little Ren and Xiu. But where? It seems like it was something happened to someone dear to Qiao An...]

After some time, the Princess finally gave up thinking about it.

[Never mind then...]

***

The Moon Cloud Palace.

Ning Huan, the Sect Master of the Moon Cloud Palace, angrily scolded her daughter. "What have you done to your senior, Cheng Ku!? Don"t you know Cheng Ku was a good disciple and have a bright prospect in the future!? His family have contributed to the sect a lot. But now, he won"t even come out of his room!"

Ning Ruo, the eldest of the Three Xiang Lan Fairies, having her father told her off did not change any expression on her face.

"Who"s Cheng Ku?"

"You don"t know who"s Cheng Ku!? He"s the man you kicked his manhood this morning!"

"Oh him..." If her father didn"t tell her, she would already forget about him.

This morning, her senior, Cheng Ku confessed to her. Truth to be told, they were quite a good match. Cheng Ku came from one of the top-tier Clan in the Xiang Lan Nation. He was a Dream Earth Realm Cultivator, just 4 years older than her. He was also quite handsome and popular among the girls.

But, Ning Ruo kicked him right in the groin. Not only that, when Cheng Ku was down, she cursed at him.

"You son of a b*tch! Have you taken a look in the mirror? How dare a shrimp as ugly as you dare to court me!?"

Remembering the event, Ning Ruo smiled, "Oh yeah... that happened. When he"s crying in pain, it was so funny!"

The Sect Master gets angry again. "Look, just because you don"t like him doesn"t mean you can kick a man like that! You could have told him nicely! Because of this, the Cheng Clan complained, and even ask for their money back!"

"I don"t care!" Ning Ruo gets up from her seat and walks toward her room.

"Where did you want to go?" The Sect Master continued to scold her, "Ning Ruo! Come back here right now!!!"

"No!" Ning Ruo shouted back.

* Thud... *

Ning Ruo slammed the door to her room shut at the face of her father.

The Sect master sighed.

Why did this happen? It"s all because of that man. Because of him, his daughter that was nice, shy and always listened to her father became this fierce, cold and hates men.

The Sect Master grimaced his face. [I hate that man. If I find him, I"ll promise I"ll kill him.]

Not long after, Ning Ruo"s mother came to console the daughter. She slowly brushed her daughter"s hair carefully. "Your father gets angry again. You could have told him more nicely!"

"Hmmph... I have nothing to say to that stupid man who called himself my father."

"Hush! Except you, who dare to call your father stupid? Even your grandfather never called him that harsh."

"I will call a stupid man a stupid man, and a woman must be vicious and able to speak what"s on her mind clearly", said Ning Ruo with determination.

Ning Ruo"s mother sighed, "This again! You still haven"t let him go yet?"

"..." Ning Ruo didn"t say anything.

"Ning Ren, answer me!"

"No, I already have given up on him... And, mother, please don"t call me by childhood nickname, after all..."

"After all, what?"

"Never mind."

[After all, only him is allowed to call me Ren.]

Ning Ruo could never forget how he always cheered her on and tried his best to kept her alive. She wanted to die, but that man gave her hope and succeeded.

She touched the bandage in her left elbow, that man bandaged for her three years ago. She couldn"t remember his face clearly, but his warmth was still there.

[Xiu... Where are you?]
