Weng Xing laid on his bed playing his flute with all concentration and emotions, ignoring the world he was in to have a total look at the other musical world where he found his peace and passive being. It was just two months since his arrival at Dijin, a place he will call home, a place he already called home burying his trust With them, a place where he believed he was safe from all evil doers, a place where peace controlled and harmony and justice took place...but Will this be the place he will call home forever? . As he blew his flute letting in all emotions take over him and it was at this point that his third eye came into Dominion, looking around for the action that will sprout out evil encounter ready to attack,his third being finally wakes up walking to a place called the unknown and drifting him off, the sound and flow of the flute tunes to the dancing wind heading to the East and grasping the information it passed. Remarkably, he understands the language of nature but the message wasn't clear like a crystal but dim like a sun going dawn and confusing his physical eyes.
It was here that his third eye intervened scanning the whole vision and endless world,he could hear his laughter to his cries as his soul was taken " WENG XING" he heard someone call from the other world but he was definitely lost and scared of himself,he finds himself struggling to escape to reality but he was held captive in the unknown world. He suddenly felt himself loosen from it's shackles as a Melody broke in rescuing him from drowning in darkness, he slowly opened his eyes and caught the glimpse of Xhou playing his crystal flute which belonged to an ancient white cultivator " Xhou Zao" he weakly called before falling unconscious.

He tossed frequently around the bed feeling the warm hug from the bed, he groaned softly before fluttering his eyelashes and finally opening his delicate eyes to discover that he was in Xhou's room, Why? Why this boring prince room? How did he get here and what happened? " You played the deepest secret summoning your third eye and adding this time around your third inner being" he heard Xhou's voice and tilted his head towards his direction, he could now clearly see Xhou sitting cross-legged writing a letter with a brush made of emerald " it is dangerous if you are not skilled in summoning it especially if your daoism isn't strong enough, you can go on breaking your meridians and getting your stupid self killed" huh? did he just call him stupid? " You haven't studied daoism nor have it in you, it keeps you away from depression,stress and being upset, you need a Dao's mind to control your places of psychology" Xhou concluded as he slowly put the brush away before looking at the surprised Weng who shook his head finally and crossing a leg above the other. " I am not a cultivator" he said avoiding Xhou's sharp eyes " Sharata practices Resentful cultivation using dark magic" Xhou said as if reminding him " Whatever, the point is that I am still alive" Weng reluctantly said " You might not survive the third one" Xhou finalized as he got up picking the letter and heading to the door " Class has ended,we have a ceremony tommorow" Xhou announced when he got to the door and " you were unconscious since yesterday morning till noon of today" he coldly said as if pointing on how stupid Weng was before walking out .
" Half a day?" Weng asked himself " A day and half?" he asked again scratching his hair, Xhou might be right; he might not survive the next one. He sat up when Xhan entered with much worry on his face,he fell on his master's arms crying like a child who lost his mom " I thought I would lose you, please don't go away master, please stay with me" he cried tightening his grip around his master. His actions broke Weng's heart and he patted his back softly assuring him that he wasn't leaving until he grows to be independent "Ah! cry no more Xhan,I was asleep not dead" he used his playful attitude to calm him but Xhan wasn't going to take that "Everyone was worried about you even Elder Qing Qu" Xhan sobbed " Xhou was the worst,he was acting like a man who lost his wife" Xhan said breaking from the hug and sitting next to Weng.
Weng looked surprised but he refrained his facial expression so fast that Xhan didn't notice, how could that whole boring man be so concerned about him after scolding at him and accusing him? Xhan must be mistaken " You are totally wrong" Weng tried to say laughing " No, he was actually the one that played the flute for you to come back from your stupidity, I heard is called "the resgan" the melody played against a black eye" Xhan explained to his master who suddenly kept quiet, he was right! the last person he saw was Xhou before he dived into unconsciousness.
" I am hungry" Weng said avoiding the topic " sure I ordered fresh cakes and your favorite wine the Tassle " Xhan chirped like a bird who fulfilled his master's wish " You must have known me for years little Xhan" Weng laughed rubbing his hair " I am fourteen not little" Xhan pouted tugging on Weng's robe " Nanana, you are matured but acting childish" Weng feigned an angry face patting xhan's cheek " I am hungry, bring me my cakes for I am starving to death" he said rushing to open package Xhan brought for him" What a foodie" mumbled Xhan as he watched his master eat.

The "Golden" ceremony was one of the ending party or send off ceremony after the lectures, it was held every year after the two days of Lectures to send off all the sons and daughters of prominent men and women, the people pray to the gods and make wishes together. Weng Xing didn't really join the ceremony for reasons best known to him,he instead used that time to go the water fall at the back of mountain where the Dijin water fall was suitated. He loved the chilly atmosphere and calm beauty of nature that posed with the water fall " weng Xing" he heard what looks like his mother voice when she do call him for dinner " Mama" he replied getting up in a hurry with a smile on his face " mama I am here" he waved at the sky beaming with honest smile " my little Weng" she called again appearing in white flowing garments and holding a golden latern on her left hand.
He was dazed for a second why she was holding the holy bidding latern " Protect the bidding latern created by our ancestor, don't allow it to fall on the wrong hands, protect it when you find it, hold it like you hold a little kid and keep it safe from all evil doers and seekers of power" she softly said sounding like a mild breeze and suddenly disappearing leaving Weng behind " Ma" he cried grabbing the empty space and falling on his knees " it is better you didn't show up" he whispered downcasted as his long hair covered his face.

" Have you seen my master?" Xhan ran around the ceremony asking for the whereabouts of his master,it has already been an hour since the ceremony started but his master hasn't come into view. He shuddered at the thought of his master not surviving the summon of the third eye, the thought of losing his master and staying alone to face the world made him panic alone clenching unto his sword, he must go and find his master now or never he thought quickly as he sneakingly left the palace to avoid questions.
He finally successfully jumped over the roof with a huge relief which was short lived by a white whip tied around him and pulling him down, he fell flat like a fallen angēl and yelped in pains " Damn you" he cursed massaging his back like a baby And his eyes searching for the animal that ruined his plans " First Childe" he exclaimed immediately his eyes laid on a white flowing garment standing meters away from him, he inwardly cursed wishing he could beat him up for ruining his plans half way.
" Did you see you see my master?" he politely asked pouting his lips, Xhou was so done with this master and disciple " No" he sternly replied still standing like a rock on moving " Boring" Xhan cursed inwardly before smiling sweetly at xhou who arched an eyebrow at him " I need to find him before he dies" Xhan protested as he got up dusting his black garments like a kid and it dawned on Xhou on the information xhan wanted to pass.... the summoning of the third eye " Dies? isn't he in the ceremony?" he asked looking worried but it was clearly covered under his stony face and Xhan shook his head. " Are you coming with me?" Xhan asked Xhou who looked like someone confused when giving an option, why didn't he notice that weng was missing or was he too angry that he didn't care? He looked at Xhan from his profile and saw xhan making ugly gestures at him, what was weng breeding actually? A discipline or a rascal? . He snapped his fingers at Xhan who was suddenly struggling to speak " let's go" he concluded before flying upwards not batting an eye at the miserable looking kid who trailed behind him as he kept cursing him inwardly " what a snooze! Must he really make me dumb?" he kept cursing as they flew across the sky in search of Weng Xing.
