Three World Swordsman

012: God's Preferred Child

Guo Jin turned around, looking like his familiar figure, Zhu Long the founder of the God Valley Sect, was drifting slowly to where they were.

The three others who had just seen someone for the first time could fly, were dumbstruck in disbelief at what he saw.

Guo Jin was immediately about to kneel, yet Zhu Long held back with his strength.

"Honor to the Ancestors."

"Jin'er, thank you for doing what I've assigned you. This child is the god's choice. I was ordered by the Dragon God to pick him up right now." Zhu Long explained about his arrival. Then looked in admiration at Yao Chan.

No one knew why Yao Chan's skin was tattooed like snake scales. The tattoo was another form of the Dragon Scales Armor.

Zhu Long then told Guo Jin that the Dragon God had explained that he had chosen someone a few years ago to train and help Zhu Long.

Just as Yao Chan was about to be born, the Dragon Demon God entered the Womb Realm of Lin Hua. Then put on the Dragon Scales Armor to Yao Chan. As it did not yet possess any inner strength, the Dragon Scales Armor would be shaped like a tattoo on Yao Chan's skin.

In addition, Zhu Long recounted that the Dragon God also inserted the Dragon Soul Pearl into Yao Chan's body. It did so along with the opening of the Natural Cultiva Door a few days ago.

With the Dragon Soul Pearl on Yao Chan's body, Yao Chan was able to absorb the natural energy around him.

The fog that was on top of the bridge was a huge mass of natural energy. Because of the magnitude of the energy in the fog that caused a spark like lightning.

Because of the existence of the Dragon Soul Pearl in his body, the fog energy was absorbed and entered Yao Chan's body.

The natural energy that entered Yao Chan's body was finally absorbed by the Dragon Scales Armor. By absorbing those natural energies, the Dragon Hawk Armor had now fused with Yao Chan's body.

Yao Chan who also heard the explanation, his body became violently trembling. All the questions about all the strange things that had happened to him during this time were finally answered.

While Lin Hua was already unable to hold back her tears. Yao Zhi nodded his head. His mind was filled with questions about who this Ancestral Grandfather really was.

"Teacher..Who is this old man who can fly?" Yao Zhi asked curiously to Guo Jin.

Guo Jin and Zhu Long smiled, then Guo Jin explained who Zhu Long was. Hearing Guo Jin's explanation, Yao Zhi and the others' mouths opened. There was great admiration for Zhu Long.

"Then why did the Ancestral grandfather come to pick me up?" Yao Chan asked enthusiastically.

"Chan'er, grandfather came here to pick you up, then train you in the Dragon Cultivation Realm. Once you finish training there and you become very strong, you will have the task of replacing grandfather, keeping the peace of the Three Worlds. Do you want to go with Chan'er's grandfather?" Ask Zhu Long.

Yao Zhi and Lin Hua were again surprised by Zhu Long's explanation. Slowly Yao Chan nodded, then he looked at his parents.

"Mother.., may I join the training with the Ancestral Grandfather?" Asked Yao Chan.

Lin Hua immediately hugged Yao Chan very tightly. He realizes he is going to be separated from his only son, whom he loves very much.

Actually Lin Hua and Yao Zhi did not want to part with Yao Chan, however for the sake of the future and the noble task of the Dragon God with heavy hearts Yao Zhi and Lin Hua allowed Zhu Long to bring Yao Chan to the Dragon Cultivation Realm.

"Train diligently son, I will always miss you. Obey the Ancestral Grandfather." Lin Hua tightly hugged Yao Chan, her tears falling unbearably.

Zhu Long was seen talking to Guo Jin.

"Jin'er listen carefully, I was ordered by the Dragon God to give you this Dragon Horn Ring. If something critical happens with the sect, use this ring to save yourself."

Zhu Long then explained the workings of the Dragon Horn Mustika Ring and handed it to Guo Jin.

Guo Jin was surprised, not because of the Mustika Ring but rather Zhu Long's words about the precarious thing that would happen to the God Valley Sect.

Zhu Long and Yao Chan finally went to the Dragon Cultivation Realm by climbing the Lightning Mist Bridge.

Slowly but surely they passed the bridge, after Yao Chan's small foot stepped, the rocks behind him one by one fell into the God's Gorge.

Zhu Long and Yao Chan's bodies disappeared from before them shortly after passing through the Door of the Dragon Cultivation Realm. Shortly after, the Door of the Dragon Cultivation Realm disappeared.

Along with that, time went back to normal. The Elders looked puzzled, as they did not see Yao Chan with them.

As their gaze turned towards the God's Gorge, they realized, the Lightning Mist Bridge had disappeared along with a small hole located on the cliff.

Finally Elder Ma Hua and the other Elders realized, that Yao Chan was the chosen child to train in the Dragon Cultivation Realm.

It also explained why Lin Hua looked so tearful and Yao Zhi's face looked so sad.

However upon seeing their Patriarch's face, Elder Ma Hua frowned. Guo Jin's face was filled with worry. It seemed like something was weighing down on his mind. Seeing the situation, Elder Ma Hua finally kept her curiosity.

"Zhi'er let's go back to the Hall, Master wants to know your story." Guo Jin patted Yao Zhi's shoulder.

Arriving at the Sect Hall, Yao Zhi also told about the events seven years ago.

As he escorts Lin Hua's entourage, the group is attacked by a group of highly capable assassins.

Yao Zhi who had just reached the level of Swordsman King, was helpless against his dozens of opponents at the peak of the Conferred warrior.

Yao Zhi managed to save Lin Hua, but not with his servants and guards. They were all killed cruelly.

Yao Zhi was severely injured and Lin Hua managed to save himself by plunging together into a ravine, which Yao Zhi knew was essentially a river.

Then they were carried away by the river until they were unconscious. When it was awakened from the stings, they only realized they had been helped by a powerful old grandmother. The old grandmother who was later known by the two of them was named Xie Jia.

Hearing Xie Jia's name, Guo Jin was aghast, that name was a name he would never forget. Knowing Xie Jia was still alive, Guo Jin smiled faintly.

Lin Hua who was looking at Guo Jin's smile, finally understood that the person who caused Elder Xia Jia to leave the Cave where she lived a year ago was the Master of her husband.
