"Aargh..." Rai wakes up in a treatment room full of equipment to care for someone. Coupled with a white mattress that is currently occupied by Rai.
Rai got up and tried to sit down. He now does not wear a top shirt so it looks his body is wrapped with a lot of bandages.
Beside the bed, there was Rin who was fast asleep. That time was indeed near dawn. So that there are still many living things that fall asleep in their respective places.
Rai uncovers the blanket from above her body slowly and carefully. He did not want to wake Rin who was asleep with a tired face.
Rai knows that Rin is the only one who takes care of her all night. So he knew how tired Rin was when he was busy taking care of her.
Rai got up and tried to stand up. He was about to reach for his clothes that were hanging full of blood stains on one of the hangers.
"This is no longer usable" Rai murmured softly. He then destroyed the dirty clothes and replaced them with a western-colored black clothes, black suits, and a black robe with purple on the inside.
"I think it's good. I haven't worn these clothes in a long time. Huh... Uncle Christopher, I miss you" Rai muttered as he recalled the memories of his adventurous uncle. He was pronounced dead in a tragedy with a group of pirates.
"Erghs... Rai? Are you awake?" rin's voice was so happy, it suddenly made Rai forced to leave his sweet memories.
Grep...
Rin suddenly hugged Rai from behind. Exactly like he did when in the sect first.
"Rai, you're finally awake! I was worried because you were in critical condition! But lucky you got through that time!" rin clearly with a happy face.
Hearing that, Rai immediately felt happiness. However, there was a hint of pity for Rin who had been taking care of him all night.
"You seem happy, Rin!" Rai clasped Rin's hand and led her to let go of the embrace.
"Yes, I'm happy!" reply Rin with a big smile.
"Oh yes, Rin! Can you get Raiden and Miyuki? I want to talk to them!" pinta Rai's.
"Sure!"
Rin then leaves the room to call Raiden and Miyuki.
***
"What's up, Rai? Why are you calling us?" ask Raiden as soon as he enters the room.
Swush... Swush...
Theron and Jinlong suddenly appeared beside Raiden and Miyuki with serious faces.
"I feel the presence of an assassin around here!" tukas Rai who made everyone stunned.
"He is at the Mortal General level of the Master stage! Its dominant element is lightning and its secondary element is water!" rai explained.
"There's a suspicion that he's a Devil Warrior assigned to spy on our movements!" continued Rai.
"Where do you know all this, Rai?" ask Raiden to interrupt.
"When I used the third stage Divine Eye technique, I accidentally saw the silhouette of an assassin who was looking at my fight from a distance! It seems like he has a good eye technique!" answer Rai at length.
"Are you sure that person is a Devil Warrior?" ask Miyuki.
"I'm so sure! Because, I felt a demonic energy enveloping his entire body! And it seemed like the two elements he possessed, were also the result of mixing with demonic energy! You know, right, what is the destructive nature of demonic energy?" rai replied which made Raiden and Miyuki understand the situation they were in.
"Then, what steps are you going to take?" it was Jinlong's turn to ask. Seen once the face of his enthusiasm who tried to be covered by him.
"I'll send you and Theron to keep an eye on that guy! Dig as deep as possible information from him! If he commits a dangerous act, prevent him! If necessary, torture him! Only later if you have enough information, can you kill him!" rai replied as if understanding what Jinlong's heart was.
"Good, Master!" Jinlong and Theron immediately rushed away from there. Leave the three people still standing in silence.
"Quick say, Rai!" raiden is serious.
"Well..." Rai sighed.
"Raiden, I felt an enormous fluctuation of demonic energy!" rai's words made Raiden and Miyuki aghast.
"It's a long way from here, but it's coming from the East! I not only felt one energy fluctuation, but two demonic energy fluctuations at the same time!" continued Rai.
"Looks like Lucifer was about to rise up with his son!" Miyuki.
"It seems so! But, what should we do? The power of Lucifer and Mammon cannot be underestimated! They occupied the top two peaks as the strongest demons in this entire world!" raiden said with a complicated face.
"For now, I don't know! I can only increase my strength with the resources I currently have! But that's not enough!" rai replied confusedly.
"Raiden, is there any way to go to Dragonland?" ask Rai.
"There! Do you want to go there?" ask Raiden back.
"Yes, I want to go there! Please tell me how!" rai Urk.
"There is an inter-dimensional gate connecting this human world with Dragonland! This gate is open every year and can only be accessed by Senior-level God warriors!" obviously Raiden is at length.
"Looks like my trip there won't be easy, huh?" muttered Rai with a bitter smile.
"Raiden, are there any resources that can make my cultivation rise to God's level in such a short period of time?" ask Rai.
"You can use the Dragon Pearl I once gave you! But, it could not raise it instantly! One grain can only raise to the level of a Holy Emperor Legend stage when viewed from your current cultivation!" answer Raiden at length.
"There is one more resource that can make you absorb 5 times more natural energy than before!" keep Raiden.
"Isn't that some kind of technique? Like the Star Absorbing technique? Galaxy Absorbents? Or what is it?" ask Rai.
"Yes, it can be obtained from techniques! But, this resource is different! His name is Natural Ginseng Generator! This ginseng is able to provide the ability to absorb 5 times greater natural energy to its users in one day!" answer Raiden.
"Ginseng is rare in the human world! There were only a few people who had encountered this ginseng within the mysterious dimension that only a few great clans had opened up!" obviously Raiden.
"Well... Your explanation makes me dizzy, Raiden!"
"Oh yes, Rai! You are asked to immediately go to the main residence to meet with the leader and elders of the Zhao clan! He said there was also an ancestor of the Zhao clan there!" Miyuki.
"High of the Zhao clan? Did I not hear wrong?"
***
In the morning, the,
"Greet the ancestors and clan head Zhao!" said Rai saluting the ancestor and clan head Zhao who were in a meeting hall. Behind him was Rin as well as the others who were paying their respects.
"Wake up!" the ancestral orders of the Zhao clan that already looked very old, yet remained strong.
"Display, my name is Zhao Jun! Ancestor of the Zhao clan!" zhao Jun introduced himself.
"Include me too, my name is Zhao Kun! Clan leader Zhao!" zhao Kun introduced himself.
"Thank you, the ancestor and the chairman have introduced themselves! It would be rude if I didn't introduce myself! My name is Rai, and the person behind me is Rin, Raiden, Miyuki and Aunt Yuki!" said Rai introduced himself and his entourage.
"You are quite polite as well to a strong young swordsman! I like that!" Zhao Jun praised Rai as he stroked his long white beard.
"Thank you for the compliment! Excuse me, ancestor, instead of being presumptuous, but can you tell me, why did you call me and my friends here? Is there anything important that this stranger should know?" rai asked politely, but had the intention of probing.
Zhao Jun slightly frowned. He seemed to know Rai's intentions, but a little hesitant because of his polite speech.
"Well... Lookie! First of all, I thank you for killing Zhao Chen who turned out to have been possessed by a demon!"
"Secondly, I want to ask, did you really mean to bet with Zhao Chen back then?" ask Zhao Jun.
Rai was silent for a moment. Then take a breath and exhale it slowly before answering Zhao Jun's question.
"First of all, I can only say the same! For the second, regarding the bet with Zhao Chen, I didn't really mean it!" rai replied that Zhao Jun, Zhao Kun and Zhao Yan who were left behind were surprised. Especially Zhao Yan who felt that he had been rejected.
"Oh, so..."
"Encestor Zhao Jun and Chairman Zhao Kun! Sorry, I can't stay here long! I need to continue my journey! If you'd like, I'd like to resign!" rai said he was going to leave there.
"Son Rai, wait a minute! Don't you want to be given a gift? Please ask for any gift you want!" zhao Kun's remark made Rai stop his steps.
"Are you sure you want to give me whatever gift I want?" asked Rai without looking.
"Sure, we'll fulfill whatever you want!"
"All right! In that case, I want you to give me the Natural Ginseng Generator!"
"What?!" Zhao Jun gasped in shock. Rai's speech just made himself shocked and horrendous one hall. How not? Natural Generation Ginseng is an extremely rare resource and can only live in mysterious dimensions alone. If brought to the outside world, that ginseng would be scorched just like that. Thus, it was extremely rare for even no one to bring out the Natural Ginseng Generation.
"Sir Rai, can't you ask for a slightly lighter gift? Your previous request was too burdensome for us!" zhao Kun pleaded.
"Can't! I need that ginseng for something very important! Can't you give it to me?" said Rai coldly.
"It's not that I don't want Rai! But, that ginseng cannot be taken out and can only live in our mysterious dimension alone!" zhao Kun hatch.
"All right! In that case, let me get into that mysterious dimension!" said Rai who was increasingly burdensome to Zhao Jun and Zhao Kun.
"Hey, young man! The longer you get sassy, huh?!" said a burly elder.
"Who are you?" asked Rai with a lazy look.
"My name is Zhao Yong! The elder to the nine Zhao clan!" zhao Yong said introducing himself, "Good boy! You have been given a heart but still do not know yourself?! Is that ginseng so important to you that it forces you into our dimension?!"
"Well... Uncle Zhao! Didn't you hear my words earlier? I urgently need that ginseng because of the urgent circumstances!" answer Rai firmly.
"What urgent situation?! That's just your excuse! Is your family in trouble until you need that ginseng?!" Zhao Yong said out loud. This made the entire Rai group shocked and afraid of what happened next.
"Great!" Raiden muttered.
"You! Pull back your words!" rai's orders with a gloomy face.
"What's wrong?! You have no right to—"
"Pull back... YOUR WORDS, BAJ*NGAN!!!" Rai took out his entire aura up to the Mortal King level of Legend stage.
Instantly, the air in the room became heavy. Everyone who was there was forced to bend their knees due to the aura that Rai released. In fact, Zhao Jun and Zhao Kun who were the two strongest people of the Zhao clan were also brought to their knees by the aura of Rai.
"Rai, relax! You don't have to let out your aura until this stage!" pinta Raiden with great difficulty.
Rai immediately regained his senses from his anger and immediately retracted his aura. He immediately apologized to Zhao Jun and Zhao Kun for the inconvenience earlier. Followed by apologizing to all of the Zhao clan elders present there, except Zhao Yong.
"Chairman Zhao Yong! If you come back to bring my family, beware! For at that very moment I will give you a great torment!" rai said to commemorate Zhao Yong.
"Ekhem... Nak Rai, after discussing with the ancestors, you can follow the journey into the mysterious dimension of our clan that will be held in a week! However, on one condition! You must look after my daughter, Zhao Yan during her stay in that mysterious dimension!" zhao Kun said at length.
"Well... Alright, chief! Thank you for this opportunity! I beg you to resign!" said Rai with a resigned tone mixed with disappointment.
Rai came out from inside the meeting hall. In the end nothing special happened there, except for the permission of Zhao Kun as well as the incident with Zhao Yong.
"Zhao Kun's. This kid seems unusual! We should try our best not to offend him," Zhao Jun ordered.
"Good, ancestor. But, am I allowed to know the reason the ancestor respected the boy? It was rare for an ancestor to respect even acknowledging the abilities of a person younger than the ancestor," asked Zhao Kun who felt unusual about his ancestor's attitude.
"Eitherway. I don't know. To be sure, I felt a majestic aura. The aura that only the owner of the divine inheritance possessed,"
