73 When the hell did I get adopted?

Janet sat behind her desk at WorldComm looking at her private satellite feed from the Sacred Abyss. For a while she was terrified by what she saw. She knew that Nathan was blessed to receive amazing gifts and he was destined to be a powerful man in the future. theBut what she say today made her terrified of what her would have to face in the future. The enemies that could display such incredible abilities would be his constant opponents in the new world he was travelling to. What if there were stronger people than that there, would he even stand a chance against them? As Janet's heart was filled with worry she reached for her remote to turn the screen off when she noticed a strange flash of light near the edge of the Sacred Abyss. It was only for a brief moment, it seemed as if the image distorted when she longed again it was back to normal. Janet was smart enough to know that she should record everything just in case this information could be used as a bargaining chip layer. So she quickly rewound the recording and sure enough that distortion was still there. When she froze the screen and zoomed in she saw a very indistinct shadow of a man appear in the distortion. His image was so vague, that if she really leaned towards that tendency, she would have believed she had video evidence of a ghost. Feeling today something wasn't right, but not have a clue who to contact about it, Janet got up to leave after transferring a copy of that video to her home computer.

Chen Zhen stopped his attack not because of the shout he heard coming from beyond the gates, it was because Shenggu Feng yelled for him to stop as will. His fist hover before a beautiful face. Now that he had taken the time to pay attention to who had attacked him he saw a female who looked to be around 30 years old with a delicate oval shaped face. Her lips were blimp and naturally red to the point she didn't need lipstick to accentuate them. Her eyes were an emerald green color and she had a honey complexion that seemed to make her glow.

A very powerful aura followed that shout out from the golden palace. Chen Zhen was not alarmed by this aura because he recognized it belonged to Shenggu Julong. The female had also stopped her attacks and retreated to the side. She knew the voice was from ther clan's ancestor who had returned recently. She was confused as to what could have drawn him out aft this point in time.

When Shenggu Julong arrived before them he took as moment to access Chen Zhen before saying anything. His progress was really to amazing. In a few short months he had already progressed to the Liquid Core Stage. Chen Zhen is by no means a powerhouse in this world, he was far from it. But to be able to advance to the Liquid Core Stage in such a short time, if he keeps up this pace he would reach Shenggu Julong's level in a little over a years time.

Shenggu Julong glanced at the female standing a little ways from Chen Zhen. Her name is Shenggu Tian Wu. She is from the dance generation as Shenggu Feng. Because Shenggu Feng was such an outstanding genius in the clan anyone of any concern was so completely overshadowed that they became pretty much nonexistent. If Shenggu Tian Wu was born in any other clan at that time she would have been considered a rising star.

Shenggu Tian Wu kept throwing side glances at Chen Zhen. She didn't know why but something about him seemed familiar to her. She also didn't know why the ancestor had arrived and intervened in their fight. She didn't want to appear inattentive in front of ther ancestor so she kept her head forward, but she wished so badly to study this person to find out why her made her feel this way.

"Chen Zhen you sure took your sweet time getting here. If I didn't know any better I would have thought you got lost. Follow me and explain to need what happened to detain you for so long.", Shenggu Julong said as he turned around to leave.

"Senior Julong what about Mei Ling and best children? Are they still allowed to come and work for your clan. I also have some friends I've brought along with me. They are also survivors from ther crash." Chen Zhen said tentatively pointing to ther small group of people behind him.

Shenggu Julong in his excitement over Chen Zhen's improvement completely disregarded the small crowd that had gathered do to the initial excitement over Chen Zhen's fight with Shenggu Tian Wu. Sheepishly scratching ther back of his head Shenggu Julong realized he'd completely ignored everyone else. He originally ran over because her was worried for Chen Zhen's safety which in turn included the safety of Shenggu Feng. But he soon after became distracted and forgot about ther other important matters her had to deal with.

Clearing his throat Shenggu Julong looked around and said, "Oh yes before I forget there are as couple of things I need to announce. First the two people over here are honored guest of our clan." When Shenggu Julong said this her point toward Alex and Kim. There was a low murmur from the crowd when they heard this unexpected news. After finding out from Chen Zhen what he said they were astonished by ther good treatment they were receiving. This was a far cry from being forcefully taken as slaves.

"My second announcement is that this woman better is name Mei Ling. She still now be an attendant in my house. Her children will also be accepted as disciples of our clan." This caused another round of murmurs wondering who she was to receive such preferential treatment. In all honestly being an attendant was just a glorified way to say she wad a maid. But everyone knew that the higher the rank of a household, the more resources and benefits that household would receive. And everyone who was apart of that household would receive something from those benefits. Anyone in the crowd wild have gladly given up an arm or a leg to become a member of the ancestors household. Their were plenty of jealous stares being pointed Mei Ling's way.

" And finally the piece of news I'm proudest this young man named Chen Zhen is my adopted son. Anyone who finds trouble with him will be directly insulting me personally. There will be a more formal announcement in a couple of days."

Chen Zhen was so stunned by this news he had to ask Shenggu Feng and Lou Tian, "When did I get adopted?" All he heard in response was laughter.

Shenggu Julong looked at Shenggu Tian Wu an asked her to see to the guest then had Mei Ling and Chen Zhen follow him. While there was a great mix of emotions from confusion, to excitement, to jealously, and even some with out right derision. Chen Zhen was feeling helpless. Not only did her not succeed in getting rid of Mei Ling, no one would still answer his question, "When the hell did I get adopted?!!"
