After what happens at City Lord Hall, City Lord Ye Zong removes all Shen Family members from the City Guard. Anyone with a connection with Shen Family is removed from their duties. West Gate, the former Shen family responsibility, is handled by a combination of second-rate aristocrats.
Inside Shen Family Hall, elders gather inside.
"What is it?" First Elder asked.
"I don't know First Elder, suddenly City Lord removes all our men from the city guard." The informant answered.
"What the cause?" First Elder asked again.
"It seems they have suspicions about our movement. The last news we receive, they seem to know about our connection with Dark Guild." The informant answered again.
"Are they have evidence?" First Elder narrowed her eyes. If they have evidence, Shen Family needs to think of countermeasures.
"According to our news source, they don't have any concrete evidence." The informant answered.
"Good, you're dismissed."
"Thanks, First Elder."
After the informant goes, First Elder looks at another Elder. "What do all of you think about it?"
"We need to ask for an explanation about it from City Lord!" The elder gave his opinion.
"Right!, we are one of the Great Families in Glory City, how could they do this without our consent?" Others supported the first suggestion.
"I think, we need to be low-key now. Look at our current condition, the patriarch still in seclusion. We can't protect ourselves if Ye Zong and another expert from first-rate family attack us." The third Elder didn't agree with another suggestion. In his mind, this event is very critical. Even Shen Family may be able to escape safely, but all their hard work turns into naught.
"What Third Elder said was right. We need low-key before the patriarch comes out of his seclusion." First Elder made a decision.
Then they begin to discuss countermeasures of this event. In the most critical situation, they will helplessly ask the patriarch to act.
On the other hand, Heri, Ning'er, and Ye Ziyun come to Institute Training Ground. After knowing Heri's ability, Ye Zong decides to make Ziyun stick together with Heri.
"Lei, what ranks you now?" Ziyun asked.
Ning 'er is also curious about it. She looks at her master with expectation.
"I'm just the three-star silver rank," Heri answered flatly. From his tone, one-star silver rank is nothing.
Ning'er and Ziyun dumbfounded with his nonclarity. There's a silver rank! How old are you?
"Why do you two look at me like that?" He feels puzzled.
"How old are you?" Ziyun asked.
"Just 14 years old." It's what Buddy told him before. This is his identity in this world.
"You say that our talent is the best, but look at you. You already in silver rank in 14 years old. You are a liar! Hmph!" Ziyun looks like a young wife got cheated.
"Who told you that I come from Glory City?"
Sudden question from Heri makes two young maiden stares at him like they seen a ghost. If Heri not from Glory City, then there must have another human settlement outside. This is a big news!
"You may not believe me, but Glory City is not an only human settlement in this world. In another mountain, there is another settlement, Heavenly Fate Plateau. They are living in poverty. Their cultivation technique also is not complete. Then you must know..."
Heri explains another human settlement. He talks about the Ten Millennium Spatial Array and Abyss Prison inside it. There are many powerhouses inside, including Sikong Yi, there are 3 legend ranks. He also tells them about Endless Desert, Toxic Forest, Blood Moon-Mars, Spirit Gulf, Heavenly Luster Mountains, and Northern Snow.
"Toxic Forest is the real Alchemist human settlement. They need to survive from the toxic beast. They know many alchemist recipes to repel and cure poison. As for the Glory City Alchemist, the grandmaster rank still couldn't hold a candle for them." When Heri remembers that the Alchemist Association couldn't even refine Soul Nurturing Pill, it made him slightly annoyed. He needed to search for it by himself in the mountains book inside the library.
The two girls look at him like they're looking at a star. They were really excited about Heri's story. Especially Ziyun. She really loves to venture outside.
"Master, is that true ?" Ning'er asked. She really doesn't know that her master is actually so amazing.
"Of course. If Ziyun's Grand Father can solve the inscription pattern on the pillar, he can enter the Abyss Prison. I guarantee my dignity." Heri answered.
"So, Lei is truly not coming from Glory City. Then will you travel out side again?" Ziyun asked Heri.
"En, I will travel out with Ning'er in 7 days," Heri answered, then he turns his head to Ning'er and asks. "Oh right, Ning'er, are you already getting what I told you before?"
"En." Ning'er nodded her head and took an interspatial ring. She hands it to Heri.
Actually, Heri once searches about the growth rate of the demon spirit on the internet before. The information is very minute. But it is still useful to him. At least he will be able to discard them under excellent growth rates.
He sorts them out and removes all useless demon spirit. The remaining three demon spirits. Then he looks at Ning'er and says, "Choose one of them."
Ning'er looks at the demon spirit. The first demon spirit is Black Thunder Crow. The second was the Lightning Panther. The third was Lightning Sparrow. She suddenly feels the urge to choose Lightning Sparrow and finally choose it.
"Go integrate into your Dantian," Heri said.
Ning 'er is already a one-star silver rank, so she can integrate with a demon spirit. She sits crosslegged and absorbs Lightning Sparrow into her dantian calmly. The process is smoother and smoother than Heri.
She opens her eyes and looks excited. Then she stands up and begins to merge with her demon spirit. Lightning Sparrow's spirit shade appears behind her. Her arm transforms into a talon-like arm with a sharp nail on her fingers. She also has a black wing on her back. Then she tries her new ability.
She looks more like a banshee. Half bird.
.....
Ning'er jump to his master and says thanks many times. She already forgets about Ziyun existence. Heri only can smile bitterly at Ziyun who look at him with a weird gaze.
