as he keeps exercising his lump of metal, he also keeps practicing his mental powers by using it to manipulate his lump of metal. bit by bit wuxi keeps improving as his mental power expanding little by little each and every day he practiced. but he didnt know that theres two eyes spying on him after he has seen creating a junk looking sword thru his lump of metal. the owner of those eyes felt shock after seeing wuxi awakened his spirt and deep down inside felt sad for not revealing the truth. so one day, when wuxi goes outside the house started to summon his lump of metal, a shadow jump behind the tree and stand there while wuxi started to sweat like theres no tomorrow.
The shadow voice asked him, " so what's this all about little wuxi?"
as wuxi felt alittle bit of anger in shadows voice..wuxi then hastly replied. " this is nothing mom." as Xiao Mei looking at wuxi like a fierce eagle she then said. " so you still pursue being a spirit master in the end." as the voice rang in his ear, wuxi felt the sadness and alittle bit of betryal from his mom..then wuxi slammed his head hard as he kowtows and said..
Wuxi : mom , i lied, please forgive ur son for hiding the truth from you, as i dont want you to worry about me. i want to be a spirit master, to be respected by others to be strong enough so that you will not tire ur self from working everyday and have a happy and relax life. i also want power to protect you mom, and myself from others who wanted to harm our family. (and as i wanted to have revenge to those people who destroyed ur happiness) wuxi thought to himself.
Mei : son, all i wanted is for you and me to live a happy life, even if i tire myself to death. i dont want to see you in danger, and here i thought youve promised me you will never become a spirit master.
Wuxi : forgive me mother, please do forgive ur son for doing this.as he keeps slamming his head in the floor
as Mei looking at wuxi, she saw the determination that his husband had when they both arguing in something and she knows that wuxi got his unyielding attitude from his father. Mei knowing that she cant stop her son, decided to give away. she help her son get up and said. " ok son, you win. ill let you become a spirit master but you must accept the 3 conditions that i Xiao Mei made.
first, you must be safe all the time, for that you must enter a school so theres someone who will protect you in danger in all times. second, you must visit me once every year for me to know what youve learned being a spirit master. the third and foremost,
NEVER SEEK REVENGE. as you already know how ur father left us. so this three conditions Xiao wuxi, do you accept? as xiao mei deep voice rang into wuxi.
he honestly replied, " the first two conditions mom, i can accept, but the third one, i dunno if i could promise that. when i XIAO WUXI is strong enough, ill find those people who killed my dad. Xiao Mei answered, " ok when ur strong enough, ill let you know more than you currently know ." as wuxi thinking to himself thought (theres more than that? i thought i was just a simple casualty.)
as he keep his thoughts to himself, Xiao Mei said, " someday my son, youll know the whole truth "..
after they finished their one on one talk, wuxi started to cultivate diligently as to theres another goal added into him aside from his revenge. he keeps pushing his mental power depleted for creating multiple parts of a gun but still failed to do so.. but theres improvement in his mental capacity as it forms a little lake inside in which he jumps for joy.
another week pass by and wuxi notice that his mental constitution isnt improving anymore as well as on how he could manipulate his lump of metal. he decided that now is the time to hunt his spirit rings. as for the things he needed, he needs a good weapon for hunting his own first spirit ring. after going in some shops near their village, he cant find a weapon that he thinks could cut a hundred year old beast . as he goes home, her mother notice someone off on him and she started to ask. "is there something wrong little wuxi?."
wuxi answered. " mom, i cant find a suitable weapon to use for hunting my very first ring." Mei after hearing it, had go to her room and comes out with a box with a 13inch long.
Mei : wuxi go and open it, this might help you on hunting.
wuxi then recieved the box and opened it. he see a knife without impurities after being kept for so long, its been made as the same metal as tangsan sleeve dart..as wuxi started to hold the knife,
he cant help but said." wow! good knife, this might be the thing i needed.thankyou very much mom, by the way where did this come from? wuxi asked his mom about the knife. Mei replied,
it was ur fathers. take a good care of it cause its a memento of him.feeling alittle bit sad after saying those words. wuxi hugged his mother tight..after wuxi cooks their dinner, wuxi told his mother that he will go hunt first day in the morning and xiao mei agreed and repeatedly reminding him to be careful all the time..
the night fall, wuxi whos lying in his bed cant sleep as hes pretty excited about how his adventure will turn out to be for acquiring his first ring and creating a plan after plan a various traps that would let him increase his chances of succeeding..
and the morning comes..wuxi who gets up in his bed, prepared everything he needs walks slowly and open the door. he stop for awhile after getting outside the house and look back saying. "wait for me mom, ill come back safe and sound." as he smiled and turn around to go and start his hunt for his very first spirit ring.
