Yang Zhai entered the inheritance place once again. This time around, he went inside the space where the inheritance was located.
He placed his hands inside the water fountain and entered the dark space. After that, he went closer to the inheritance items.
He would check on them from time to time to see if everything was alright.
"It's happening again…"
Yang Zhai placed a right hand on the left side of his chest. The reason was that the Second Life Ka had become a little restless.
Not just the Second Life Ka but also his other Ka started to become restless. They were resonating with something. This had been happening ever since he obtained this inheritance.
At first, it was not much. However, with the passage of time, it kept on increasing.
"Whenever I get close to these items, all of my kas resonate with somethin… however, I am not sure with what."
With this, he took all the items out and placed them separately from each other at a certain distance.
He first went close to Heaven's container, then to the Waiting, and then to the remaining ones.
Finally, when he got closer to The Forbidden One, his kas began to react again.
"So, it was this…" Yang Zhai picked it up and examined the scroll.
"Ina Ya, Yah Yan,"
"What is it, master?"
"What is happening here? Why are my kas getting restless whenever I get closer to The Forbidden One?"
"We are not sure, our previous master didn't tell us about that,"
Even Ina Ya and Yah Yan didn't know what was happening here.
While Yang Zhai was talking to them, his eyes widened. He hurriedly threw the scroll away and took a step back.
"Were the kas just resonating with…"
"What happened, master?"
Ina Ya saw Yang Zhai's expression and inquired, worried.
"Nothing, go back,"
He sent them back to their ring. After that, he collected the items and placed them back like they were.
Finally, he cautiously walked closer to The Forbidden One scroll.
"Nothing's happening now except for the kas' usual restlessness,"
This time, he was fine. He picked up the scroll and placed it back.
After that, he walked out of the inheritance place.
"What just happened?"
Yang Zhai was contemplating.
"This Forbidden One is definitely something not to be messed with. If these kas were just restless around it, I could understand if they were scared of it. But… they clearly resonated back there. If they resonated with something like kas, then I need to be extremely careful…"
"I wonder if this is related to that final warning that person gave me in the inheritance ground before he disappeared. No, I need to stop using these kas as soon as possible. It seems like I will be doing it before the time I had decided upon."
Yang Zhai stepped out of the inheritance gate and came to his room.
"Even though he just asked me to be careful, I should be cautious and stop using these altogether."
Yang Zhai didn't know what was happening here, but he decided to do what he thought was the best.
Even though it was difficult for even him to do so, he had no choice left.
At night, shortly after dusk.
Yang Zhai and Yue Qing were walking through the palace's gallery.
"Do you know why I asked you to meet my father? I promised to tell you. My father wanted to meet the person I chose to compete for me because I'm blind. He needed to remember the face of the one standing in my place in case something happened to me. Even though he is doing all this to me and arranging a competition for me, he does love me."
Yue Qing said with a slight smile.
"Are we here…" Yue Qing stopped and muttered.
"We should be, if I remember the distance correctly, there should be a gate in front of us." She moved her right hand around.
"It's not here…" She was confused.
She stepped slightly ahead and waved her hands until one finally touched the door.
"Here it is."
Yang Zhai looked at all of this quietly. To him, even a little bit of information about a person could prove to be of high value.
He was going to work with her. However, in the future, if he did turn against her, this could prove vital. He now knew how much she was aware of the palace's ways and her memory to remember things.
She gently pushed the door open.
What appeared before Yang Zhai was a bright room illuminated by candles and glow stones, casting a warm yellowish-white light. A small round table, suitable for ten to twenty people, was surrounded by a few individuals.
Yue Qing walked inside and Yang Zhai followed her.
"Sister Yue, you are finally here. What took you so long?" A man, who seemed to be in his mind twenties came forward and asked.
He was holding a bowl filled with a liquid. This wasn't alcohol, but a drink made from pomegranates. It wasn't like a juice, but was made using rank materials of this world. It was considered a lavish drink with a slight sour taste at first but would turn sweet later on.
This came to Yang Zhai's mind. This was one of his favorites in his previous life. In this life, he didn't even get a chance to see this previously before today.
The man had blue hair with blue eyes. His hair extended to his waist. He was wearing a white ruqun with blue wave-like patterns. He had a chiseled face and exuded an immortal aura. His name was Jin Ling. He was Yue Qing's elder brother.
"Sorry, brother, I took a little longer to get ready," Yue Qing replied.
In reality, it was Yang Zhai who was late, as he had something to take care of.
"I see, you do look pretty good today. Anyway, is he the one?" Jin Ling asked.
She wore a light green ruqun, with a red sash tied around her waist. Her hair was pulled back neatly and held up with a red hairpin. The bottom of her ruqun had pretty pleats that moved gently as she walked.
Her white irises, with silver pupils and a hint of red in them, matched her clothes perfectly. They looked like the most precious gifts gifted to her, even though she was blind.
In actuality, everyone here thought that this was an irony played by nature.
"Yes, brother Jin, he is the one, his name is Tzu Yu."
