Chapter 106: Ancestor

Evan came with Brianna to a secluded corner of Sylvia clan. He looked around and found a simple house made up of stones. Brianna went forward to knock but before she could do anything, a voice came from inside the stone house. "Come inside", a serene yet majestic voice came from behind the door. Evan's nerve tightened indescribably after hearing the voice. "There is surely a expert inside the house", he thought inside his mind.

Brianna pushed the door and walked inside. Evan followed after her. The house was unadorned and there was only a stone bed inside the room.

Evan's gaze fell upon the person sitting on it. The person's head was covered with white hair and even his beard was completely white but there was no wrinkles on his aged face. It looked like time couldn't left any scar on his bearing except turning his hair white.

A pair of clear eyes filled with wisdom fell upon Evan and Evan felt a undescribable emotion welling up within him. He felt a subtle connection with the person infront of him despite not seeing him never before. 

Beside him, Brianna fell on her knees and bowed towards the old man. "Your grand daughter in law pay respects to grand uncle", Brianna shouted with a low voice. Evan could feel the reverence of her towards the person infront of him.

"Little girl, how much time I have to tell you to not knowtow to me", the person infront of Evan shook his head. A shpeless energy came from him and it gently lifted Brianna up. "No matter what you say, you are a senior. So, I have to pay respect", Brianna replied stubbornly.

"Evan, why are still standing there? Knowtow to your great grand uncle", Brianna glared at Evan. Evan didn't know what to do but he didn't feel any aversion towards this great granduncle of his. After listening to Brianna, he fell upon his knees and was just going to knowtow when a shapeless energy came from the old man Infront of him. It gently lifted him upward and carried him to the old man.

"Little brat, do you know how to hold a sword?", the old man asked with a smile. Evan nodded and took out a sword from his storage ring. Then he hold the sword with both of his hand and took a position. "Not bad", the old man said while observing Evan.

"Grand uncle, have you succeeded in your seclusion?", Brianna asked curiously. "Oh, it is obvious that I have succeeded. Otherwise someone else has to come out in my place. It would be troublesome if other seniors have to make an appearance", the old man smiled at Brianna.

"It is good that grand uncle has a breakthrough. Your power must have grown up", Brianna smiled happily. Now she had none of the demeanor of a queen. She was acting like more of a playful girl now. Evan became dumbfounded after seeing Brianna like this. His entire knowledge overturned after seeing his aunt like this. The old man nearby also chuckled slightly after listening to the words of Brianna.

"When will that child, Olivia wake up? Has big sister Adaline given any suggestion?", a worried look appeared on the amiable face of the old man as he asked the question. Evan could feel genuine concern within his words. His heart felt warm as he wholeheartedly accepted the old man Infront of him as his ancestor.

"Little brat, what is your cultivation now?", the gaze of old man shifted to Evan again. "I am in Meridian opening stage now", Evan replied. The old man nodded and said, "Try to reach Profound transformation realm before you turn fourteen years old."

Evan nodded solemnly. He knew if he couldn't achieve such a small matter, then he would labeled as a trash only. He wouldn't have any face left to speak about his talents then.

"Here are some Profound blood strengthening pills. It will help you in stimulating your bloodline power", the old man took out a pill bottle and handed it to Evan.

Evan felt slightly surprised because he knew these Profound blood strengthening pills were precious treasures made up of blood of demonic beasts. Only after reaching the Nascent soul stage, a magical beast could be labeled as a demonic beast. Thus, these Profound blood strengthening pills could be considered quite precious in this world.

Evan felt excited after receiving these pills. With these pills, he could attain his blood awakening more easily. Besides him, Brianna also smiled. She was happy for Evan as the old man handed such precious pills to him.

"Stop giggling like a fool, you little brat. You are the inheritor of our Thousand swords kingdom. So, it is normal that you can use these pills", the old man chided in a teasing tone. "Thank you great grand uncle. I will definitely reach Profound transformation realm before I turn fourteen", Evan bowed toward the old man.

"When is this little brat's birthday?", the white haired old man looked towards Brianna. "There is only a month left before his birthday", Brianna thought slightly and replied. "Then, bring him to the ancestoral palace that day and he can choose his weapon from the palace", the old man instructed.

"Little brat, do you wish to become powerful?", the white haired old man turned back his gaze towards Evan. He observed the expression of Evan after asking the question. 

"I must become powerful", Evan uttered without hesitation. Power, that was the thing he was madly pursuing since he got back his memory. So, he resolutely gave his answer after being asked such a question.

The old man laughed heartily after seeing the expression of Evan. "This is the resolution I have seen in big brother's eyes when he left Green cloud continent", he thought inside his mind.

A brilliant gleam appeared in his clear eyes after he saw the resolution in the face of Evan. "Little brat, then you must leave this place and journey to the southern part of the continent. That is the place where all powers of Greencloud continent gathers. If you want power, then you must compete with the other geniuses and make a name for yourselves in that place.

There is a much bigger world beyond sea but you don't need to worry about it now. If you want to be powerful, then learn to walk forward resolutely. Learn to follow your dreams and do what your heart desires."

Evan fell into a stupor after listening to the words of his great grand uncle. Some words resonated with his heart and he felt enlightened. His heart grew more clear and his mental state developed. "I will listen to the words of great grand uncle henceforth", Evan again bowed towards his great grand uncle. Compared to before, his eyes grew more clear and his will grew more firmer. The eyes of the white haired old man glowed brilliantly after seeing the transformation of Evan. He felt gratified after seeing the transformation of Evan.
