Everyone in the hall gasped for breath because of the sudden feeling of a suffication. the elders began to look around trying to find out what was that feeling the only people that seemed ignorant of what was happening was Tu Zhang and Tu tsuki who was standing by his side.

But that feeling quickly disappeared as quickly as it came. The elders could only sigh and think maybe it was just a high level magus passing by. But even this made their inner most feeling tremble what kind of strength does one need to be to get them to feel powerless to such a degree.

"Whats the matter " Seeing his brother and elders look around in such a manner Tu Zhang was bewildered.

All the elders including the patriarch watched Tu Zhang strangely, after all Tu Zhangs strength was only second to the patriarch.

"Elder Zhang have you truly not feel that sufficating pressure a moment ago" an old man with white hair ,that wore a black robe with Tu family insignia asked.This man was the second elder Tu Mal .

"What pressure !'' Tu Zhang asked in surprise , he was also wondering why he didn't feel it because he realised from the elders expressions that this was no lie.

At this moment the patriarchs voice interrupted his thoughts" No need to think about that now , it is probably high level magus that was passing by....What i want to know is where you got that baby" he said.

"I found him in the cave while we were being hunted,I believe he was trappped down there." Tu Zhang said. He didn't bring up the issue with Shura being trapped in a crystal etc. because even him had a hard time still believing it happened. Tu tsuki was also an intelligent girl and knew not to disturb adults when they are speaking so she kept silent.

"So what are you going to do with him'' asked the patriarch.

"Naturally I will take care of him and try my best to find his parents while doing so " said Tu Zhang with a resolute expression.

The patriarch knitted his brows at his brothers words.

"Tu Zhang you know the rules of the clan, which states that we cannot allow non Tu family persons to join the Tu family" shouted an hoary headed elder in brown robes angrily .He calmed down and said " He cannot stay"

"Leave Shura alone you big meanie" said an unexpected voice this person was three year old Tu tsuki. Due to her high intelligence no one saw it accidental that she spoke cleary, but they were suprised that she spoke out of turn.

Even the patriarch her father almost fell down out his high chair. From this he could tell his daughter was attatched to this baby already from that he knew what he should do.

" Elder brother Zhang i will allow you to take care of this child , but this must not clash with your duties as the first elder and if you cannot find this childs parents i will break the rules and allow you to take care of him but the Tu families resources will not be used on him, so you will provide his resorces."

" ...Also when the child turns 18 years of age he must serve the Tu family" said the patriarch.

Tu Zhang knew this was his brothers way of giving him a way to keep Shura and provide residence for him . But he felt cold in his heart still for this meant that once he turned 18 he would become nothing but a servant of the family. In his heart he pledged not to let shura be enslaved by the family.

"Brother i then said goodbye" Tu Zhang then left with baby shura in his arms.
