"If you want to live, you must undo your cultivation, brat."
Those words really hit the boy very hard, leaving him stunned for a moment, he had no words to answer, just a few hours ago he imagined with great anticipation the future that awaited him, but it seemed that from heaven he fell directly into the depths of hell.
Although the boy knew that the librarian should have a good reason to tell him to do it, he still couldn't help but get angry, after all, he tried so hard to be able to bring his cultivation to that point, almost dying 2 times, and all that effort, Not at all? The child could not feel reconciled.
So, forcing himself to calm down, the boy was finally able to gather the strength to ask the librarian.
"Senior, why is he asking me that?"
The librarian, seeing the child in that state, could not help but sigh inside, although no emotion betrayed his face, inside he felt sorry for the child, but he also knew that if the child refused to listen to him, he would definitely die, so he quickly addressed the boy saying:
"Brat, it's not that I'm being unfair to you, but after our last meeting, something caught my attention that made me have to investigate, what I found is very complicated so I'll start from the beginning, brat, do you know who your parents are? and what is your name?"
The boy, hearing the librarian's question was surprised, and thought quickly, before answering the librarian.
"No older, since I can remember, I only met one or another old man and the maids who brought me food, so, in addition to knowing that I am a member of the Aegis family and that I lost my bloodline as you told me, I do not know nothing else, including my name."
Indeed, although the child had not taken importance to that matter, it was true that since he arrived in this world, he never saw his mother or any other relative, what he knew of his current state was due to what he had heard of the maids who commented between themselves and the occasional old man who mentioned something about it, but between those conversations, his name or that of his father was never mentioned, who was a complete mystery to him even now.
The librarian, hearing the child's sincere response, felt even more sorry for him, but was also surprised by the strong mental state that the child had, after all, from a very early age the child already had knowledge about the world, so he must have wondered about his name several times, not to mention that being alone or talking to anyone didn't bother him either.
"Thinking about it that way, this child is surprising, any other person in his situation and at his age would have already gone completely crazy, and even turned into a beast, but he learned to read on his own and managed to develop as a human being by himself, the current existence of this child is a miracle in all its aspects."
The librarian did not know that the boy actually had the soul of a 23-year-old, so he was surprised by how much he achieved in such a short time, but he quickly diverted those thoughts from his mind.
"Forget it for now, better tell the child about it before they realize what I'm doing."
So the librarian, with a light cough, quickly resumed the conversation.
"Well brat, the reason for my questions is because the day I gave you the manual, I found traces of a very powerful soul art within you, although these no longer affect you in any way, find them inside a child of 3 years didn't make sense, so I decided to get out of this place and investigate on my own."
The boy quickly nodded, he had already suspected that the librarian had left the place and that he was not in the mansion, and what the librarian had just mentioned confirmed his suspicions.
Seeing that the boy had no questions, the librarian continued with the topic.
"By investigating on my own I found out what happened to you with greater accuracy, and although I cannot tell you everything due to the magnitude of the events, if I can tell you that your mother is a very important person in the Aegis family, and normally you shouldn't be in this god-forgotten place, but as you know the day you were born there was a big uproar, but the focus or cause of the incident was 2 newborn boys, in the end one lost his talent and the other was taken away to the central area of Kunlun, so I assume you already know who was the boy who lost his talent, right?"
Hearing the librarian's question, the boy nodded, he already knew the story about the incident very well, and the fact that the librarian did not tell him exactly who his mother was, made him laugh inside, but he wanted to believe that the librarian did it to protect him, ignorance is often bliss.
Seeing the lack of emotion in the child, the librarian was surprised, he thought that the child would be very surprised by the information that he told him, so he could not help asking:
"I see that you are not surprised by that child, for someone who shook all of Kunlun with just his birth, doesn't it intrigue you to know why?"
For a moment, the boy wanted to hit his head, of course he was surprised when he found out for the first time, but now that he already knew about that incident by heart, he obviously would not be surprised, but thanks to this he made the librarian suspicious about He, thus thinking of a quick answer, decided to answer:
"To be honest senior, now that I have lost my bloodline and am considered a cripple in the family, would it help me to know why?"
Hearing this, the librarian was amazed, his response was quite unique, and for him, it made a lot of sense, too bad others didn't think so.
"*Sigh*, you are right brat, now you are just an ant compared to those powers..., no, you are not even an ant in their eyes, but, unfortunately, many think that you could become a great threat to them in the future, so even though you lost your bloodline and your future is bleak, they prefer to make sure that there are no problems, after all, the most unpredictable in this world is destiny."
Hearing the latter, the boy immediately became alert.
"Do not tell me that, those damn old ones are still looking out for me? Damn, if this is correct, any increase in my cultivation will be an alert for them, even more so if it is supposed that I should not have any cultivation by being in this place, so it would make sense for the librarian to tell me to dissolve my cultivation if I don't want to die... but what the heck, do those ancients have that much free time to worry about a 4-year-old? Shouldn't they be exploring ancient ruins? or something like that?"
The boy couldn't help but curse them in his mind, if his train of thought was right then he was in big trouble, but he decided to calm down first and listen to what the librarian had to say, after all, many times things are not like they appear.
Thus, shaking those thoughts from his mind, the boy paid full attention to the librarian's words.
"In short, brat, the day after tomorrow 3 people will come to take you with them, the first thing they will do is examine you and verify the current state of your body, if they find any anomaly, then it's all over for you."
And with this, the boy finally understood why the librarian told him that he would die if he did not dissolve his cultivation, as it practically proved that even if he lost his bloodline and was ostracized, his fate was still profound, as even in that situation he managed to cultivate, which would give them a motive and the green light to kill him.
Thinking about this, the boy couldn't help but sigh, he had endeavored to reach the martial disciple stage to at least have a starting point here in Kunlun, only to find out that it was of no use, as even if he dissolved his cultivation now, wouldn't trouble come to him once he advanced in his cultivation in the future? For a moment, the boy felt desperate.
Guessing the boy's thoughts, the librarian hesitated a bit, but quickly made up his mind.
"Hey brat, don't worry, it's not the end of the world, although you will have to start again, at least you will do it faster now that you know how to get to that stage, and regarding the future, you should not worry, later of everything, this family still has an old one to back it up, so I assume this will be the last time they create problems for you."
Hearing this, the boy only smiled helplessly, he knew that although the librarian's words sounded true, it was very unlikely that they would be fulfilled, even after 5 years since the incident and without his bloodline they were still watching him, who knows who they will put to secretly watch him once he leaves the mansion.
The librarian, seeing the attitude of the boy after hearing his comment, did not bother, on the contrary, he seemed somewhat happy, and, with a mysterious smile on his face, he asked:
"So, do you want a chance to get rid of them?"
Hearing this, the boy, instead of being happy, distrusted a little, in his previous life he had already learned that cakes do not fall from the sky, even so, he decided to pretend happiness to see what the librarian had in mind.
"Senior, do you really have a way to rid me of those people?"
The librarian, seeing the child's happy and curious face, felt satisfied, he had managed to attract the child's attention successfully, so he quickly replied:
"Yes and not brat, you see, I may now be the artifact spirit of this library, but before I was the artifact spirit of a legendary swordsman, and it was with him that we found the ancient rank manual in the ruins that I mentioned to you, *sigh* how long has it been..."
The child when hearing this was surprised, he had suspected about it when the librarian told him about the origin of the ancient rank manual, but hearing it from him and seeing in his eyes the reminiscence of past times was surprising, but he still did not understand that he had to see that matter with your problem so you decided to ask:
"But Senior, how will that senior help me with my problem? Even if he's an old man, I doubt he'll help me in good faith."
Hearing the boy's question, the librarian responded with some sadness:
"He is already dead, otherwise I would not be here aging in this library, as for your problem, his solution is in the inheritance he left."
Hearing this, the boy's eyes shone, while in his mind he thought:
"Yes, here is my chance!"
