《Asura》Chapter 15-New Home
Advertisement
The plane ride took about three days before reaching its destination the United States of Ameri Continent. After clearing the security check. Ming brought Lintian to meet Wei Mao.
Ming brought Lintian to the bathroom in the airport and had him change into new clothes. These clothes were clothing that the Wei family would wear. Ming also changed clothes himself to further disguise himself. They later went to a ramen shop in downtown Boston.
Ming walked into the restaurant and his eyes scanned the whole area. He was searching for Wei Mao. Seeing that he was not there he was received by the hostess to a table in the corner. Lintian and Ming both sat down and ordered some appetizers and ramen.
After a couple minutes a medium biult Asian man about 6 feet tall with a horseshoe mustache walks through the door. The moment he walked in Ming’s eyes lit up. They stared at each other for a brief moment and the man walks over and sat down on the table. Ming releases his heaven realm qi to set up a sound barrier so no one can hear unless they are within it.
“Mao this here is Lintian. Lintian this here is Mr. Wei who’s going to be your dad,” introduced Ming.
“Nice to meet you Mr. Wei, I am Wei Lintian how are you?” greeted Lintian respectfully.
Seeing how respectful Lintian was Mao couldn’t help but smile a bit.
“No need to be so formal. We will be family soon,” said Mao.
Lintian smiled and still felt a little uncomfortable calling Mao father. So he just sat there quietly.
The waiter seeing that there was a new customer came by and entered the sound barrier without noticing it.
“Hi sir would you like something to drink?” asked the young waiter.
“I'll have some ice water and can you put in a sozaku ramen for me?”
“No problem. I will put it in right away” the waiter replied and walked away.
“So Lintian your uncle Ming has probable already told you but my son has passed away and my wife is ill. Ming told me that he cannot disclose the circumstance you’re in but you need to hide away for a while. That’s fine by me but I do wish that we can become a proper family.”

Lintian sat their quietly nodding his had and not knowing how to reply.
Mao Wei feeling that Lintian might not feel comfortable continued, “it is ok if you don’t feel a bond between us right now but we have plenty of time and I hope that you will regard us as your family, like how I will regard you as my son.”
“I will try” replied Lintian. He felt that Mao Wei was a really nice person but he is still emotionally attached to his real parents. Even if his mind cut ties with his old self his emotions are still attached to his identity as Xiaowei.
“That is good enough for me” smiles Wei Mao, “Let’s eat before it gets cold.”
The waiter has brought back all the food. They all ate and discuss the tiny details of the plan. From time to time Mao would show guilt in this plan but he would steel himself by reminding himself it is for his wife. After they finish eating Lintian left with Wei Mao and Ming said his goodbyes and left for another city in the United States.
Lintian followed Mao to his car and they went to his Chateau. When they got to the door the maids and butlers greeted them. The whole place was like a tiny village. Most of the houses were styled like the old imperial Japanese homes. It was big with many floors but it looks like wood. The houses surrounding it were smaller and were only one or two story high.
Mao introduced everyone in the house to Lintian and brought him to one of the branch house living quarters. It was an elegant home and even had a yang garden. A underground pool inside and the basic necessities of a home.
On the way to his wife’s room a young girl about nine years old yells out, “dad!” She ran up to him and hugs him really tightly.
“Whose he?” she asked.
“Yuki this is your little brother Lintian,” introduced Mao.

Lintian could not understand what he said since it was in English and he could only speak mandarin at the moment. He only nodded after hearing his name.
“Lintian? I thought little brothers name is Dao Wei?” she questioned.
“Haha silly child there were some issues overseas and his name changed,” replied Mao. He realized that it is better to answer this question then dodge it for the future.
Xiaowei couldn’t understand what she said so he only keeps nodding. He felt like an idiot and stopped.
“Lintian nice to meet you, my name is Yuki Tsukino” Yuki introduced herself in mandarin.
“Nice to meet you too,” replied Lintian. He thought that she was a really cute girl and couldn’t help but present himself properly. It wasn’t like a lewd expression just one of attraction.
She turns back to her father and asks, “is he going to visit mom? She’s asleep right now. Maybe we should go later. Tsuna and Kira are fighting again.”
“Those two,” Mao sighed and had Yuki lead the way. She brought them to a stage outside the house.
“Kira I will beat you today,” a boy about 12 years old yelled. He was holding a wooden Japanese saber.
This boy must be Tsuna observed Xiaowei.
“Tsuna you’re too weak. It’s annoying having you challenging me every other day. I know father said I have to accept but at least get close to my cultivation before you do or else it’s a waste of my time,” Kira said.
Tsuna yelled really loud and charged forward. He executed a strange footwork and he sped forward leaving a footprint behind.
Kira just looks at him and smirks. He has seen his little brother do this many times and wonders if he was going to change it up a bit.
Kira moved forward and into Tsuna’s personal space. Using the back of his left wrist to hit Tsuna’s right wrist and coiled his hand around to disabled Tsuna’s sword hand. Tsuna let the sword go and used his left knee to aim at Kira’s stomach. Kira already anticipating it used his right hand to block it. Not wanting to injure him Kira decides to grab his leg and wrist and unbalance him causing Tsuna to fall.
Kira noticed his father at the edge and of the stage and quickly greeted his father.
“Dad welcome back. Is that Lintian?”
“Kira stop teasing your brother and come down.”
“I’ll beat you next time,” Tsuna muttered.
“Hello I am Lintian,” Lintian introduced himself in mandarin.
“Oh nice to meet you too,” Kira and Tsuna both said in mandarin.
“Kira, Tsuna how many times have I told you not to fight so randomly. The last match you had wasn’t even three days ago.”
“Dad I just entered the sixth stage of the refinement realm and wanted to test it out,” refuted Tsuna proudly.
“That’s great!” laughed Mao picking up Tsuna.
“Dad can you have Tsuna bother someone else? I’m already in the martial realm first stage. I don’t want Tsuna to keep bothering when I’m training,” Kira complained.
“Haha. Tsuna maybe you can challenge some of the guards,” Mao said. Then one of the butler ran over to Mao. The butler whispered in Mao’s ears and Mao’s expression darkens and he quickly concealed it.
“Lintian, why don’t you go play with your older brothers and have them show you around. Father has something to take care of. Yuki, Kira, Tsuna make sure you show your little brother around. I don’t want to hear you guys bullying your little brother. He can’t speak English right now so try to speak mandarin so he understands.”
After he said that Mao quickly left with the butler.

8 80Nobody's Way
Foreign Thorn: Book 1 For eight centuries, the people of Isla have wanted for nothing. The Creator, Maere, uses Her power not only to keep them healthy and fed, but also to map the direction of each person's future Path - their vocation, role in society, and even the partner they'll spend their life with. In a world where infighting once threatened the very survival of humankind, the old texts say that Maere personally stepped in to help guide Her creations to harmony. All is not well among the people of the northern lands, however, as Jian discovers when she receives her own long-awaited Path. The Creator has chosen to favour some towns, but not others, leading to anarchy and unrest in the east, and fierce distrust between the neighbours who enjoy Her protection and those who don't. After many nights of disturbing premonitions, visions of a face uncannily familiar to her, and a voice beckoning her to "Homeland," Jian decides she needs to find answers for herself. She hires Madrigal, a surly young traveller hailing from an "unblessed" village, to take her to the southern lands. The swordsman is on the run from something, or someone, but Jian has no choice but to trust him. When the two leave the safety of the familiar and meet Quinn, a mysterious boy who seems to know more about Jian than she does about herself, it becomes clear that there are forces besides the old magics, forces completely unknown to the people of Isla, in play. Madrigal and Jian aren't sure if Quinn can be trusted, but they're certain he knows more than he's letting on...

8 171Ishtar's smile
Greetings to you, mysterious reader! I am Ishtar and... well, 'know what ? Let's forget the formalities! To be honest, I don't know my age. I was here before the founding of Uruk. I'll be there long after your descendants have died. Let's say I'm old, shall we? Well, it doesn't show, because I certainly look something like 17. 'll have to trust me. Ah, ah! Let's start at the beginning: if the weird ideograms on this document make sense to you, then someone has taught you my mother tongue. Congratulations, I am dealing with a well educated individual! Where are you from? Is there anything interesting going on in your era? Because obviously, a few centuries (millennia, actually) will have passed since this was written, so please excuse my curiosity. Ugh... get real. You know no one is gonna read this thing. What's the point for a goddess to keep a diary?24/120, NOVEL. ONGOING.
8 70Grimoire: Retake
"Reality is different than a story or a game." That's what my best friend used to say to the otaku me all the times and I myself knew full well that it's true. Well, that was until now... Why you ask? Let me ask you instead, what if you woke up one day, remembered your past life, then found out you are a harem member of a RPG game? The harem MC is childhood friend A and the main rival is my brother B. Hah! And that's just the beginning! You are mistaken if you think that's all. How about an amazing finishing touch of having found out later that reality does not follow the original storyline but might actually be the improved sequel version of the RPG? Hahaha, God, I'm laughing tears of despair....
