《The Wu Clan's Rise: Legends of the twin dragons》CHAPTER 7- Under The Cover Of Night
Advertisement
Longwei hesitated for a little bit, as he tried to find the right words to explain his confusion, after collecting himself he said.
"Father…."
"Can you explain how Legendary Physiques are popping up like common weeds?"
Hearing his son's question, the Patriarch didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Longwei however, just looked at his Father with confusion written all over his face.
He really wanted to know the reason, because on the journey back from the Central Continent his mind was constantly preoccupied with this question.
He had read ancient texts about Legendary Physiques in the Wu Clan's library, and it was said that the requirements needed for a planet to produce someone with a Legendary Physique were very stringent.
It was so hard that a planet could go tens of thousands of years without ever having someone born with a Legendary Physique.
But, here on planet Daiyu, the weakest of the four planets in the Wither Daemon Realm, there's not only one person with a Legendary Physique, but five! and that's not including him!
Longwei was right to be confused, because a planet that could produce six Legendary Physiques in the same generation, is like winning a scratch lottery worth a billion RMB six consecutive times!
This matter was so bazaar that, if the planet shriveled up and died Longwei probably wouldn't be surprised, as one of the requirements needed for someone with a Legendary Physique to be born, was them receiving the blessings of the planet. Which in other words means the planet's life essence, and without a sufficient amount of life essence a planet's lifecycle can come to an end.
This was another thing that confused Longwei, if one of the requirements was the planet giving away its life essence, how could the weak Daiyu planet produce so many Legendary Physiques at the same time, and not have any consequences occur?
The Patriarch let out a laugh then asked, "Wei'er are you feeling pressured by having to compete against so many geniuses?"
When Longwei heard that a look of contempt covered his face before he said, "What pressure? Their Legendary Physiques might be in the top 20, but mine is in the top five. How can I feel pressure because of those inferior physiques?"
The Patriarch smiled at his son's remark before saying, "Out of the 30 Legendary Physiques, having any one of them can make you a genius among genius, especially the top ten. You can look down on them because of your higher ranked physique, but don't underestimate them."

With a serious look on his face, Longwei replied, "I won't father, even a tiger will use a hundred percent of his strength when hunting a rabbit."
The Patriarch's smile turned wider upon hearing that, after which he let out three exclamations of 'good' showing his satisfaction.
Seeing his father in such a good mood Longwei opened his mouth to say something but hesitated slightly, lowering his head he then clenched his fist and said, "Father, Longmin was able to get a Heavenly Pallet, so I want one as well."
The Patriarch looked at him and replied,
"The Heavenly Pallet was giving to Longmin because it was more useful to him than you", "But if you want one so badly, the Lesser Pocket Realm in the Yellow Leaf Valley is going to open in four months time. When it does, I will send someone to search for one in there for you." The Patriarch still had a smile on his face as he spoke.
"Can I enter the Pocket Realm?"
The Patriarch nodded his head at Longwei's question, then said, "Sure, you can go as well, this will be a good chance to get some more outside experience, even though elder Sun won't be there to protect you because of the cultivation restrictions of the Pocket Realm, I'll have a Core Formation expert escort you."
Longwei was silent for a while before letting a breath of air.
In a soft and barely audible voice, he said, "Can Longmin leave the clan to go with me too?"
On the Formation Pavilion mountain, Longmin was in his room listening to the conversation, when it reached the point when Longwei asked if he could leave the clan, he held his breath while having a nervous look on his face.
Back in the Ancestral hall, the only thing that could be heard was.....
Silence.
Absolute Silence.
The hall was so deathly silent that it was frightening.
Longwei raised his head to look at his father, but the smile on the Patriarch's face was completely gone.
Lowering back his head Longwei spoke again.
"Father, Longmin's been trying really hard to control it, you saw him at the training grounds, even when I provoked him he still didn't lose control, so can't he be allowed to leave the clan?"
The Patriarch remained silent with an expressionless face.
Realizing that his father wasn't going to say anything, slight anger rose in Longwei's heart.
Looking up at his father his expression became angry as he said, "Father how long is Longmin going to be kept in the clan? Ever since that day, you forbade him from stepping a foot outside, and now it's been six years!"

Longwei's voice was filled with emotion as he spoke his next words in a soft murmur.
"Father I'm sorry for this child's behavior, but, I just don't like the feeling I get when I see my brother's expression every time I have to leave the clan. He always puts on a happy smile like it doesn't bother him, but I know it does, he's just very good at hiding it."
Longwei lowered his head for the third time and said, "Dad, Longmin's been trying really hard to control it, you saw him at the training grounds, even when I provoked him he still didn't lose control, so, can't he be allowed to leave the clan?"
Word for word, Longwei repeated his question, and he even used an address for his father he hadn't used ever since he was ten.
The Patriarch was still silent, but his expression had softened a little.
After thinking for a while, he sighed and said, "Fine he can leave, but! if he ever loses control like last time then he would have to stay in the clan until he reaches the Nirvana realm!"
Longwei smiled from ear to ear then said, "Thank you, father! I'll go tell him the good news." After saying that Longwei left the Ancestral building and headed for the teleportation circle.
After being teleported to the Formation Pavilion mountain, he headed straight towards his Longmin's courtyard.
Upon reaching the entrance, grandpa Li was seen there waiting to welcome him.
"Greetings young master Wei, young master Min is waiting for you in the training ground around the back."
Longwei smiled and said, "It's good to see you grandpa Li. I hope you've been doing well, and that my thoughtless brother isn't working you too hard."
"Ho ho, you don't have to worry young master Wei, I'm doing fine, and young master Min is treating me kindly as well."
"That's good to hear."
After Longwei finished his little chat with grandpa Li, he headed towards the training grounds at the back of the courtyard.
What greeted him there was the image of Longmin sitting in a lotus position with his back facing him. Due to the setting sun, an elongated shadow of him was cast on the concrete floor.
Without pausing, Longwei walk forward and sat down beside his brother.
Neither of them spoke.
It was only after a while that Longwei placed his hand on his right shoulder and picked up a strand of brown hair.
Placing it between his two fingers he started rubbing them together, and immediately afterward the hair transformed into a pin-sized rune before dissipating.
Longwei then reached into his robes and pulled out a folded paper, and said, "You left a note on father's chair in the booth, saying that you had a plan to get him, to agree to you leaving the clan."
"You didn't even tell me what the plan was, you just said to provoke you into a fight and I'll know afterward, but you..."
When Longwei was speaking he had turned his head to look at his brother, but what he saw made him pause mid-sentence. On his right, Longmin was using a hand to cover his mouth while his shoulders were trembling nonstop.
When Longwei saw that, his expression turned ugly before he shouted in an angry voice,
"You're actually laughing!! Do you think it's funny getting beaten in public?! If it wasn't for you, do you think it would've happened?!"
"I...I'm s..sorry", Longmin said between his stifled laughter.
"I calculated that, after you heard I got the last Heavenly Pallet, you would know to ask father to bring me with you to the Yellow Leaf Valley, but..."
Longmin started wheezing from trying to hold back laughter.
"….but I didn't expect you to react like that after hearing I got the last Heavenly Pallet. You practically called granduncle an old fogy to his face. Serves you right for going so overboard with your attacks! Hahaha!!..."
Longmin couldn't stifle his laughter anymore and burst out laughing.
The expression on Longwei's face became even uglier as Longmin's ear-piercing laughter echoed in his ears. The paper he was holding within his hand turned to dust from how hard he was clenching his fist.
With a loud shout, he tackled Longmin causing the both of them to fall onto the ground.
Even then Longmin's laughter still echoed within the courtyard.
---
While the two brothers were having a heartwarming moment, playing around on the ground causing their shadows in the setting sun to look entangled.
The atmosphere over on the Demonic Beast Continent was a complete contrast.
With the sun already set, it gave the continent a gloomy and dreadful feeling as if to match with the bloodshed and carnage that was happening under the cover of night.

All World Online
Damien Close, age 19, becomes a quadriplegic after an unfortunate car accident, losing all function of his body from the neck down. With his parents in shock and his best friend suffering from unbearable guilt, Damien finds himself without much support. Being unable to even take his own life, Damien struggles to get past each day, looking for something to live for. With every passing day, Damien becomes more solemn and impassive. Three months later, Damien has almost given up, but to his surprise something unexpected happens. He is given the chance of a lifetime; to take part in a study focused on researching the effects of VR games on quadriplegic patients. Authors Note: If you find that the dialogue from the prologue to chapter 5 seem to be not that smooth, I apologize for that, it was my first time writing a fanfic so the dialogue was not in a format that is ideal. However, due to reader comments and some research I will try to attempt to improve the dialogue from chapter 6 and onwards. I may or may not come back to edit the first few chapters since I would have to rewrite most of it and I would rather spend that time writing out more of the story.
