After eating the meal, Shen Ju and Zang Wei were now on the dragon of Zeng Bai.
"So, this old man senses something special in you Zang Wei. Have you had your aptitude tested?"
Zang Wei was still being hugged by Shen Ju, and her mounds were against his back eroding his intelligence. "Uhm, what's an aptitude test?"
"He, you little flirt… You're kidding? Were you just dropped from the sky?" Zeng Bai tugged on the reigns of the dragon before it spun in the air to a stop.
"Uhm… no, I just was excluded from the public eye until I was to be married, and my mother hated cultivation."
His real mother loved cultivation novels , but that was besides the point. Zeng Bai looked puzzled, and then Shen Ju butted in.
"He he, judging by the way he feels… He's got talent. I wonder what he has beneath his belly? I mean his dantian and spiritual roots, not his butt."
The very wrinkled man laughed and smiled. "Heh, well, stop hiding your talent from the world, you little snot. Come here and let grandfather test your gut!"
Zang Wei could only gulp. Suddenly, he was worried about being found out. After all, didn't he have a system.
"I-I…I think we should wait," Zang Wei said as Shan Ju shook her head in rebuttal.
"No! I already checked him gramps. He's really impressive, and he's all mine!" Shen Ju seemed high on touch and her flush face clearly illustrated this. After rubbing his head with her cheeks, the old man came over and placed his hand on his dantian.
"Hmmm, well, seeing as how I could drop you from the sky at any moment, let me examine you brat!"
"Uhmmm, sure, but I'm nothing special," Zeng Bai laughed unaware of how in fact special he was.
The process took a few minutes, and the old man began sensing the boy's meridians, capture space, and his dantian. In just a moment, his wizened hands started shaking as he muttered,
"You're… you're going to need a good demon beast. Let's go to the forest…"
Zang Wei smiled happily once Zeng Bai distanced himself already aware of his potential. Shen Ju then came up to him and immediately placed herself against him. It was in order to warm away her lonesome past.
She had really been alone for eight years, and with no company she full heartedly focused on cultivation. However, her father drew a Qi purification array on her back, and once unlocked her powers would bud.
At this moment, she was unaware of her potential. Zang Wei was also unaware of this and only knew of her softness.
"Heh… yes, I know I'm soft. When we're on the bed together, perhaps we can cuddle?"
Zang Wei sighed wondering how long this girl was alone for. He didn't want to teach her a single thing, and right now she was perfectly complimenting his back.
"Well, anyway you two, hold on! I promise good youngling Hong here will take us to the forest in just a second."
Zang Wei was still confused how this dragon named Hong appeared. They exited the shack in the oasis and a dragon burst through a doorway in the sky. It was somewhat magical, frightening, and exactly what Zang Wei hoped for when the goddess took him here.
However, he'd soon find out about the storing aperture that blessed cultivators could use to call out beasts. In a few minutes he'd have to use it or lose his life.
"ROAR!"
The dragon then caused the earth to rumble before he seemed to accelerate into the horizon. A moment later, Zang Wei and Shen Ju were both shocked and hanging on for their lives. After just a second more, the dragon disappeared dropping Zang Wei and Shen Ju on their bottoms.
They appeared in the forest of Zambardia north of where they were.
"Ha… well, little brat… time to capture you a seed for your soul capture space… I found us a good hunting grounds in the forest… and here catch!"
Zeng Wai was still shocked that a forest was in front of him. He caught what appeared to be a knife and followed the merry old man. The gorgeous Shen Ju walked next to him and found his open palm. She decided now would be a good time to talk,
"I…I've never been anywhere besides the oasis, and truthfully my dad didn't ever want me to see guys… He said if he ever saw me with a guy, he'd kill his entire family... However, the one caveat was if he was dead I could date. However, that was also only if he lost the battle to his new son in law."
Zeng Wai took this to heart, and made sure to never meet her father. Actually, he started getting a little paranoid as they walked through the forests. He kept feeling these eyes were on him, and the forest stilled as they walked through it.
The old man Zeng Bai guided them towards a cave where he sensed two elegant, but powerful auras. He figured he'd stall whatever beasts were inside, and have the new recruits steal their offspring.
They soon arrived in front of that cave, and the old man immediately seemed to disappear.
"Heh.. I'll take care of the parents! You two, get one of the younglings!"
Zeng Bai burst out of the cave as a flame seemed to chase him. Zeng Wai could only stare into the cave before Shen Ju pushed him with her knockers.
"Stop waiting and go! That old man won't hold on for long!"
Without a thought for safety, Zeng Wai ran in as Shen Ju pulled him towards the nest.
