334 WERE THEY EXIST?

Xiao Tianyao heard the story skeptically. "That is indeed a mere folklore."

"I know, the first time my father told me that story, I did think the same as you." Elder Dam agreed. "But, this story has been telling from generation to generation, to the next of the head of the Black Sword Clan."

"… You should tell all of this to Wang Yu, not me." Xiao Tianyao pointed out the fact of the situation.

Elder Dam nodded. "I know, I have to tell Wang Yu about all of this. But…" His old face showed defeated. "How can I tell all of this to Wang Yu, when he wanted to overthrown the Black Sword Clan and disregarded me as his father?"

Xiao Tianyao had told him all of the information, but of course he didn't mention Senja as the source. He thought, he would be having hard time to convince Elder Dam about the truth, as it turned out, Elder Dam received the news judiciously, as though he had known about this for long time and only waited for someone to solidify his qualm.

"Despite being my son, he doesn't have qualification to be the leader of the clan, especially after what he did to Senja's mother… "Elder Dam looked at Xiao Tianyao knowingly. "I know you knew the story."

Xiao Tianyao nodded, confirming Elder Dam's statement.

"I am old and will be senile sooner or later, but I will not regret to hand this token over to you. I won't live for long time to protect Senja, but I hope the thing that I gave to you is sufficient to protect her and you are willing to do it on my behalf." It was a plea, when Elder Dam was talking about Senja. It showed his great concerned about his granddaughter's safety.

The clashed between Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun against the Emperor Xiao Zi was unavoidable. And for Elder Dam, he would be always standing beside the two brothers as a form of his loyalty to Xiao Zong as the Emperor that he served and as an old friend of him.

The impending predicament was near to happen and they needed all the resource of power that they could get.

"And here I am telling the story that should be passed down from the generation to you, as I thought of you as my own son. I know you will be a good leader and could make Senja happy and safe." Elder Dam said, not in the Status of the head of the Black Sword Clan that passed down his power over, but in the form of an Elder.

There was no pressure or high expectation. He handed his power over to Xiao Tianyao was for him to be able to protect his only granddaughter. No more, no less.

All of his concerned was Senja, the mistreated that his granddaughter had been going through because he wasn't there to protect her and all of the painful memory that formed in her mind. He was so sorry for all of that and hoped he was forgiven.

Xiao Tianyao listened to it solemnly. He knew Elder Dam purposed by giving him this and that was exactly what he would do.

Except the form of Senja that Elder Dam mentioned was slightly differ from Senja that was inside his mind.

"I will do as you wish." Xiao Tianyao said most like a vow for himself. "But, I am not sure about the truth of the Shadow Warrior. Is that possible something like that exist?"

Moreover, if it required the true heir of the Black Sword Clan, then they must to find the real Senja and that the last thing in Xiao Tianyao's list to do.

"Exist?" Elder Dam smiled softly. "Mind Controller and the stone paradox of time are a little example that something that mustn't be existed, but in reality they are exist. So, why Shadow Warrior can't be exist as well?" Elder Dam asked him back tactfully.

**… And also Senja's ability and her vision** Xiao Tianyao added it in his mind.
