2 Ten years later

Ten years later

Desolate continent - Mountain lake village

In a very small manor that covers 100 square meters, in the manor kitchen, a ten years old boy with a cute face and a future drop-dead handsome are preparing many ingredients for breakfast with the help of 2 servants.

His name is Zhu Wushang. Means... "Supreme God." His name is too domineering for his own good. He didn't know why his parent comes up with this name. Especially his dad that always a muscle for brain and like to solve each of his problem with the fist, even if it's unnecessary. His mother is always lighthearted and carefree, a bit lazy but a loving mother. Her bad point is her anger.

Yes, his mother is hard to get angry, but when she did, even his dad needs to tone down his craziness and try to reconcile and beg his mother even to the point of being a punching bag for his mother to make his mother anger subside.

Today is the first day after his father Zhu Songtian, came back from his work after a year at the Imperial continent. The distance between the desolate continent and Imperial continent is more than 20000 kilometer. It's not that far by the standard of this world. It just takes you about two weeks of travel time if you go by the spirit ship.

But what it takes his father such a long time before he came back is usually his nature of work. He doesn't know what his father did for a living, but he knew that it gives him a lot of income. Otherwise, he can't support this entire manor expense.

"Today is our lucky day. Young master is the one who prepares breakfast today" the first servant speak with the fatty servant in a flattering manner to his young master.

"That's right, That's right it's our lucky day. slurpp..."

Fatty swallows his drooling saliva while answering. His nose touch by the delicious fragrant that come from the pot. Thinking about his young master culinary skill that rivals the most celebrated spirit chef of this world even his young master can't use any spirits qi yet.

"Shut your mouth fatty. I don't want to eat the food that mixed with your saliva again."

The ten years boy whose preparing the ingredient retort with annoying expression, That's right this is not the first time that fatty saliva causes trouble for this young master. The last time it did. He wants to beat this fatty up until the fat in his body dried up.

For the last ten years, This young master has terrifying development in his intelligence, learning, and comprehension. His thought process and logic is equal to an average adult. At first, everyone has to fear him because of his terrifying development. But as time passed. His carefree and lighthearted behavior like his mother was slowly making everyone accept him.

This young master stirring the clear but fragrant soup in the pot for a while before lower the fire of this custom made a stove that specially made for the one who can't control spirit to be able to use it. This cooking stove is the type of spirit item that provides convenience to the household that has a higher income because it's the latest invention of the Profound trading association.

"It's done. Both of you bring all of it to the dining room I already divide some portion to you guys. Eat it with other servants" The boy command both servants and walk outside of the kitchen before stop like he just thought of something

"Right! Almost forgot. Fatty! Don't do anything funny with the both of my parent portion and servant portion. If later I know that you dare do anything that causes anyone in this Manor to g to eat their fill…" Young master said while glaring at fatty and pause

"I'll tell my mother to freeze you naked and exhibit your frozen body at the village square!!" Young master spoke with killing intent and cause fatty to trembling all over before walk out of both of the servant sight.

"Right fatty don't do anything stupid ok?" The slim servant giggles in fatty misfortune before preparing all the food in the plate.

After a while - Dining room

In the hall that decorates with the beautiful picture, chandelier, and many more of the beautiful furniture whether it the desk or chair all of it is the high-end furniture. But the one that is the most noticeable is the crest of a White tiger roaring on the hill at the entrance of the dining room.

There are three people within the dining room. Two people are eating the breakfast with a happy face while a ten years old boy is looking at both of his parent with a smiling face. He's looking at his mother belly that bigger each day. He knew that he's just an adopted orphan and he didn't expect any form of love or care from his adopted parent after his younger brother or sister is born.

But it'll be a lie if he said he didn't hope to see the love from his adopted parent. After all expectation and hope is a different thing in his view. But it's better to prepare for the worst. People might say that he's too much of the pessimist for his age. But they can't blame anyone with an ability to sense the true human nature, and this sense never betrayed him for the last ten years.

Yes... he can sense that his parent is a good people that care and love their friend and family. But…. he didn't know if this "Family" word still including him after the real one is born. So it's not hurt to prepare for the worst after all.

"Mom, Dad. I want to relocate to the servant quarter."

The chopstick of both of his parent stops in mid-air before they look at him with a strange eye.

"Why did you say that Shang'er" both of his parent spoke at the same time.

He's silent and doesn't know what to say next. He can't say that he'd like to keep a low profile and prepare for the worst, didn't he? After all, they're still his parent and right now they still love him.

His mother looks at him seriously and looks back at her pregnant belly before smiling with loving care.

"Stupid kid. Don't say it like that. Nothing will change even you have ten brothers and ten sisters, You're still our eldest son."

"Son, I don't know what you've heard or seen to cause you to speak like this. But trust me. We're not like that" His dad assures him with a severe tone.

"That's right dear" His mother pulled him into her embrace with love.

"Mom…" Zhu Wushang closes his eye and embraces this feeling before interrupted by his father.

"Right!! in that case does that mean we can have more son and daughter immediately after you give birth?" His idiotic father exclaims with a big smile like an idiot before the temperature in this room slowly going down.

"Dear…" His mom speaks with a sweet but cold voice.

"Y. Yes!! wify" His father answer in panic

"Shang'er go and play with Xiao Lan. Let me talk with your father for a bit."

Zhu Yinbing asks him in gentle tone with a smile. Her light blue hair is waving in the air by her spirits. He looks at his father pleading look that tries to tell him "Don't go." But for the last ten years of his life. One thing that he's learned is… Don't mess with mother whether it in the house or outside of the house.

What he can do for his father right now is to send an apologetic smile, and do what his mother want.

"Yes, mom."

He moves out of his mother embrace and walks out of the room.

---------

After her son leaves the dining room, she'd wave her hand, and the spirit barrier covers all of the room and block all of the sounds inside.

"Ok let us stop fooling around. Dear, What's the update from her excellency and his majesty" she exhales and asks her husband in a serious tone.

"OK, first all of our vassal nations already know about your injury that need twenty years to recuperate. Right now they try to find where you are." Her husband answer.

"Revenge is it? Or fear? Because I didn't remember that I offend that much country." She murmur

"I think both" Her husband give an opinion in return to that question before he continues.

"Second. Duke Tian Dong was already making a move. He's starting to replace some of the high ranking officials with his people. And some of the underworld organization already working for him. Right now, We know that he's negotiating with the Profound trading association to buy the high-cost information."

Zhu Yinbing silence in deep thought, She knew about the wealth and influence of the Profound trading association. She even knew about its strength that supports this organization. It's a rumor that this organization has been supporting by the expert of the Ascension realm in other words. It's the giant organization that no one even the most powerful clan of this world dares to mess with.

There is one time around 5-6 years ago, the greatest clan of this world want to acquire all of this organization invention and artifact including all of their wealth, and the result of this atrocity was that clan headquarters vanish overnight with all of their clan members. What left behind was the open field and the pillar foundation of the clan structure that has been cut neatly from the base of the ground and some lingering dark element spirits of the aftermath.

And after this event. There's no one dare to mess with this organization anymore unless they have intelligence deficiency. This organization never interfere in the politic between any faction and never work for anyone or anything except their goal to accumulate more wealth and business influence.

But if the price is right. They will sell the information to anyone without discrimination. If that information didn't conflict with their interest of course.

Zhu Songtian looks at his beautiful wife in deep thought. He waits for a while until his wife process all of the information and asks him.

"Is there anything else?"

"There is."

Zhu Songtian looks at his wife seriously his look even more severe than the first two reports like it's something of great importance or a life-threatening subject.
