The Eastern Dragon Goddess

Beiping Kingdom

Xu Lian was very excited to do martial arts training with General Wang. Early in the morning Xu Lian had come to the residence of General Wang to invite him to practice martial arts. General Wang could not resist him just following Xu Lian resignedly towards the hall.

"Uncle can we start now?" xu Lian asked with an enthusiastic face, General Wang could only nod his head to answer Xu Lian's question.

"Our uncle will learn to sword or archery first?" General Wang could only laugh a little at Xu Lian's innocence.

"Lian you can't just learn to sword or archery".

"Why?" xu Lian asked in surprise.

"You must learn from the basics first, learning martial arts must be systematic because all elements of martial arts are related to each other".

"Ohhh...then we will learn what?".

"First of all you must learn about ki or inner energy"

General Wang who saw Xu Lian in confusion continued his words.

"Ki or inner power is the level of pure air power or element that is absorbed by a person to increase his strength, if one wants to use a sword or arrow he must have inner power".

"But how do we absorb ki?"

"Lian sit down and close your eyes, let your body feel the air around and absorb the pure power of the air" Xu Lian followed what General Wang said well and correctly.

Xu Lian could feel the power from the pure air he was absorbing, but it was only temporary, 5 seconds after he sensed the ki it had disappeared all of a sudden.

General Wang could feel Xu Lian's body absorbing the ki not to form a power within but for his own body.

"What kind of power does he have?" thought General Wang.

Xu Lian stopped his activity because he could not absorb ki from the surrounding air.

"Lian let me check your inner strength" Xu Lian let General Wang hold his wrist to check his inner power.

Everyone has energy within, though, every layman or ordinary citizen has at least 10 internal forces that are innate from birth and people who train their martial levels can reach up to hundreds or thousands of energies in the world. The higher the power in the body, the more the quality of their bones increases.

"Why can?" General Wang was confused, only now he knew there was someone who did not have power in one, even a newborn baby only had 10 power in.

King Zhang Yuwen was in a dilemma with the circumstances of his only son named Zhang Xiuhuan. Since Zhang Xiuhuan's birth 15 years ago, the Beiping kingdom had earned the royal family's disgrace because Zhang Xiuhuan was born with a half-human and half-demon body. This was due to the demon agreement made by Zhang Yiwen. Zhang Xiuhuan has a red eyeball on the left eye and a blue one on the right eye. Therefore, Zhang Xiuhuan was locked in his room and was not allowed to go out, not even his mother wanted to see him. Zhang Xiuhuan never had any friends or people who wanted to talk to him, every time he met a servant or other palace dweller they immediately left him because of that he always used a mask shaped like a demon face, but even though he has a different eyeball color but he has good looks above the average human being. Due to his appearance with a sinister mask he was summoned with the Demon King Mask.

Not only did he have strange eyes, Zhang Xiuhuan possessed an incredible amount of strength when he was a young man. At the age of 15 years, he has reached the highest level, the Sky Dragon Bone Swordsman. His breakthrough in the martial world was so abnormal that even people who heard of it must have considered it as a joke. But even though Zhang Xiuhuan possessed extremely extraordinary strength he could not control his strength because his body was controlled by the demons residing within his body.

Zhang Yiwen was very worried about his son's condition, he was afraid that his son's entire body would be possessed by the demons that inhabited his body. He therefore met with the generals of his court to discuss the matter concerning his son.

At the meeting place there was already King Zhang Yiwen and his 10 Royal generals, this meeting was opened with a statement delivered by King Zhang Yiwen himself.

"All thanks for attending this meeting, I would like to discuss the issue of the Crown Prince whose powers are increasingly uncontrollable. I'd like to ask for your opinion on all of you here"

One of the generals raised his hand to give his opinion.

"Your highness in my opinion we should direct the Crown Prince to control his power"

"But that's not what we did 5 years ago, but the result is nil" said one of the generals who disagreed with the argument.

"So there's another way to solve this problem" now it's King Zhang Yiwen's turn to speak up.

One of the generals stood up to tell him his argument.

"Your Majesty there is only one way to solve this problem" everyone in the meeting room was curious about what the General wanted to say.

"What's that?" The curious King Zhang Yiwen asked.

"This matter will be finished if we finish off the Crown Prince".

Everyone fell silent, they were very surprised by the general's statement. Hearing that statement King Zhang Yiwen was furious and was about to stand up.

"Sorry Your Majesty is not the intention of servant degrading the Beiping kingdom by killing the Crown Prince of this kingdom, but try your majesty think, Zhang Xuihuan is not Zhang Xuihuan he is a demon inhabiting the human body, he is a demon who inhabits the human body, if we let him live and continue to grow then he will destroy this kingdom"

Everyone fell silent and thought again about the general's statement.

With a heavy breath King Zhang Yiwen replied.

"alright".
