Heavenly Star Chapter 78: The So-Called Method of Anointing One’s Head with the Purest Powers Part 2

Chapter 78: The So-Called Method of Anointing One’s Head with the Purest Powers Part 2

“It’s because the clan of the Southern Empire and the Northern Empire never meddled with the affairs of the mundane world that no one has experienced their real powers. It’s not enough to estimate the level of their real powers. In addition, they are rather colossal beings that are alien to us, perhaps the ranking in our secular world doesn’t apply to them. However, those who really know the presence of these colossal beings know that they most certainly possess G.o.d-level powers, or maybe that their powers are stronger than the current four masters of Heavenly Star.” Ye Wei continued.

“Oh? So you mean to say that when the Royal Family of Tian Long had saved the clan leader of the Southern Empire during their time of crisis by removing the poison from his body and dispatching three heaven-level protectors along with numerous Royal Masters to a.s.sist in defeating the Northern Empire, it was not considered as provoking these “colossal beings” of the Northern Empire? If there comes a day when the leader of Northern Empire, who had been hidden for many years, decides to take revenge, will the Royal Family of Tian Long be in danger?” Ye Wuchen said, hardly avoiding the delicate subject.

Ye Nu nodded, caressing his beard, “Chen-er what you said is right; this act would mean that the leader of the Southern Empire owe our Tian Long Royal Family a huge favor, but at the same time it has provoked a dreadful enemy. The leader of the Southern Empire had agreed to protect the Tian Long Royal Family should they become the target of the Northern Empire. However, attacking a city is easier than protecting it. Although the power of the Southern Empire is not inferior, if the Northern Empire attacked in secret, based on their frightening powers, they would be able to bring disaster to the Royal Family of Tian Long before the Southern Empire would notice. Hah... Let’s not talk about it further, the Emperor must already have a plan to deal with it so we don’t need to worry. Chen-er, what you’ve mentioned about the power to Anoint One’s Head with the Purest Powers, is it similar to Anointing One’s Head with the Power of Heaven and Earth?”

“That’s right. Although they are not completely the same, they are much alike. For the power of Anointing Head with the Purest Powers, my teacher can could only use it once every ten years, to pa.s.s on to me a part of his cultivation, talents and skills. The same as Anointing Head with the Powers of Heaven and Earth. The difference is, after teacher has used the power of Anointing One’s Head with the Purest Powers, it doesn’t affect his cultivation, but rather he becomes weak for a period of ten days. These ten days are the most dangerous moments of his life because that’s the time he will be the same as an ordinary person. I would have to wait ten days until teacher’s power has fully recovered before I could leave.

When Ye Wuchen tells lies he was just like any other ordinary person with no unusual reactions. While stroking Ning Xue’s hair, it suddenly reminded him of when he was small. His mom must have always told him not to tell lies… but in this strange world, he told lies everyday… a new home, a new ident.i.ty. He was tired… so tired. How long must he wait until his body and heart completely adapts to this world and this home.

“So that’s the way it is! Now I finally understand. No wonder you could advance to this stage within such a very short span of time, no wonder! No wonder!” everything became clear to Ye Nu, all the doubt in his heart vanished at once, his face full of appreciation and gratification. He never doubted what Ye Wuchen said. Aside from this method, there was no other way to transform an almost useless person into a powerful and skillful genius just within a month.

“We owe such a huge favor to the G.o.d of Sword. How can we of the Ye family repay him!?” Ye Nu sighed. Indeed, they will be unable repay this huge favor, even if they tried, they still would not have the opportunity to do so. The only thing that they can do now is to supervise and encourage the future development of Ye Wuchen, so as not to disappoint the G.o.d of Sword’s efforts in “training” him.

“Chen-er, if you see your teacher next time, you must thank him on your mother’s behalf.” w.a.n.g Wenshu said smiling. After today, who would dare badmouth her son. The surprises that Ye Wuchen brought to her today had revealed themselves in succession, almost making her faint from the excitement. Until now, she still has not recovered from these surprises, still having the vague sense of dreaming. But upon thinking upon the mournful tune of A Dream Remembering the Past, her nose suddenly turned sour and her tears threatened to fall. She can hear that his heart had suffered an enormous pain. When pa.s.sed on to a mother’s heart, the pain that her son has felt multiplies a hundred fold.

“Chen-er, what about the flame from the old man Lin? How could it not hurt you?” Ye Nu asked.

“That old man Lin really had bad luck. Teacher let me eat something very strange, saying water or fire could not harm me within three months.” Ye Wuchen said admiring inwardly. Ye Ning Xue gently played with his finger, turning a deaf ear. She did not care whether brother lied or not, nor of his reasons.

“Unharmed by water and fire?” Ye Nu was surprised, “is there such a thing!?”

“Look at you two, calling him ‘old man Lin’, show him some respect.” w.a.n.g Wenshu said laughing.

Ye Nu then realized his loose tongue and was about to let out a laugh, but suddenly his face went still, then he loudly asked, “Chen-er, what about your invitation? I remember of all the invitations sent here, there was none for you.”

“Oh? How do you know I have an invitation?” Ye Wuchen asked with a doubting face, at the same time, he shot a glance at Ye Wuyun. Ye Wuyun did not avoid his gaze but instead looked at him face to face. Recalling what Ye Wuchen had said before he left their home along with his composed behavior at the inst.i.tute, there was no doubt that he had stolen Ye Wuyun’s invitation.

“Yun-er told me.” Ye Nu blurted out with no intention of hiding it.

“n.o.body gave me an invitation, so I obtained one myself.” Ye Wuchen took out a gold gilded invitation from his pocket, he then threw the invitation at Ye Nu and said plainly, “The Ye Family have forgotten me, but my friend did not. This was given to me by brother Long Zhengyang.”

“Long Zhengyang? The crown prince?” Ye Nu responded right away, then he remembered that when they found Ye Wuchen; Long Zhengyang had said that he and Ye Wuchen were friends.

“That’s right, me and brother Long are good friends, we call ourselves brothers. No use to calling him the crown prince.“ Ye Wuchen said, then somehow shaking his head in disappointment, “It’s really strange in the Ye Family. The adopted son has invitation, but the real son doesn’t. Needing a friend’s help just to be able to obtain one. When adopted son had lost the invitation, he corrupts the story by saying the real son had stolen his invitation. Upon reaching the ears of the elders, they doubt their real son over their adopted son, very funny. Who is really your own flesh and blood?”

Ye Wuchen stood up, carrying Ning Xue then left without saying any more.

“Chen-er!” w.a.n.g Wenshu rushed to stand up, yelling nervously, “It’s my fault you didn’t receive an invitation, because I thought you didn’t like that kind of place, so I… but I didn’t doubt you.”

Ye Nu also stood, feeling guilty, then sighed, “You can blame it on grandpa, grandpa shouldn’t have doubted you.”

The invitation in his hands really had the name “Ye Wuchen” on it, but had no traces of alteration or smears, too impossible to be a fake.
