As Qin Tian was walking in the Feng Mansion, he heard a very familiar word that was his favourite word in Xinxia novels
( Drum roll please)
" Courting Death " A youth at the same age at Qin Tian spat. Dressed in luxurious clothes and ornaments that decorated his slightly above average face this guy was one of the most popular species of humans in Xinxia.
You guessed it correctly folks, he is the legendary young master.
The greatest plot device in Xinxia being the reason for increasing protagonist's harem and cultivation while providing readers with entertainment by them getting face slapped. The most overused yet most important trope that defines the Cultivation Novel, these unique people are the Young Masters.
Qin Tian's PoV
As I was walking through the, I saw the person who had spoken those words.
He looked like a 16 year old with an above average and arrogance filled face . He along with his few goons were beating a boy.
The boy also looked like a 16 years old. The boy was far more handsome than the boy bullying him but the boy looked weak. Comparing him to the others bullying him, that boy was weak but he had an indomitable will and determination in his eyes. With fair complexion, long deep black hair tied into a ponytail with abyss like eyes the boy could be a supermodel in my old world if he washed his dirt filled body and changed his tattered clothes.
Looking at him I suddenly thought something. I wonder.
This event has gotten me interested. So I asked some people who were there watching the bullying about that event .
Of course they were surprised at first because I didn't looked from the Feng Clan. But it seems like the information about me joining the Feng Clan has already been spread and they explained to me.
The boy who was bullying was called Feng Yan, a 16 year old Spirit Foundation 5th stage cultivator which was above average here in Feng Clan. Feng Yan was a great genius of Feng Clan for his age as one of the 7 geniuses to step in 5th stage of Spirit Foundation Realm at his age. But he also was very attracted to the young lady of Feng Clan , Feng Lin. Basically he was a simp like every other young master. But Feng Lin had higher talent and status then him and even he couldn't talk to her.
But the boy getting bullied who's name was Long Tian which is strange considering he is a Feng Clan Member met the young lady. So Long Tian actually met with Feng Lin and even talked to her. This mad Feng Lin's sim- pursuers very angry. So as one of the respectable sim- pursuer of Feng Lin, Feng Yan came and bullied Long Tian.
Actually Long Tian was bullied even before this. Even though Long Tian was accepted officially as a Feng Clan member, Long Tian was the son of the Feng Clan Leader's sister. So after the death of Long Tian's
parents, the sister of Feng Clan's leader adopted him.
Since Feng Xichen ( Feng Clan's leader) doted on his little sister, he allowed Long Tian to join Feng Clan despite the disagreement of elders.
Other members of Feng Clan also didn't like him but due to respect for Feng Xichen and his sister they didn't do anything.
At first, Long Tian was even allowed in the main mansion and he was even the childhood friend of Feng Yan. But that all changed when during the test for talent, Long Tian didn't have any talent not even white grade talent which was the lowest talent of all. This made Long Tian's life difficult but after the death of Feng Xichen's sister and the pressure of Elders on Feng Xichen, Long Tian's life became hell.
Long Tian's was moved into the commoners compound of the Feng Clan and was bullied daily. But some time before it was found that Long Tian awakened his talent. But it wasn't taken seriously as people with talent awakening at late than average age meant they had bad talent so the Clan didn't even tested his aptitude.
Yep he is the protagonist. Like every one of those Feng Clan member are dumb shits to insult the protagonist like this. But it wasn't their fault as the fundamental rule of this world is strong praying upon weak.
System is he the protagonist, I try to confirm my 99.99% accurate suspicion.
[ Yes host, Long Tian is the protagonist]
So he is the protagonist but I couldn't care less. I just want a peaceful life in this world and avenge the Qin Clan. I don't know why but I fell like I am becoming like the previous Qin Tian day by day. I feel guilt and anger whenever I think of Qin Clan and I also have developed slightly narcissistic personality after transmigrating in this body.
I think that I am slowly losing my individuality and originality.
I know that the protagonist is the person who exchanges enmity and kindness 100 folds. So If I save him will I get some benefits or will end up in the path of the tragic side character who serves as the motivation for protagonist to become stronger.
I don't think I should take this risk but if I became friend of him, I can avenge the Qin Clan. Even if I have top grade Bloodline, Divine body and talent, I don't have the confidence to take the strongest of the 5 holy lands and their allies. But if I help the protagonist frequently he will surely help me to eradicate them .
So this is my decision, I will explore this beautiful yet cruel world, become stronger and aveng the Qin clan while helping the protagonist.
As I made the decision, I slowly walk towards the protagonist .
3rd Person PoV
At the site of bullying, you can see a handsome young man walking through the crowds and the crowd making a way for him. That man had an invisible aura that screamed, " I am superior"and every one in the crowd became submissive to the young man.
Murmurs began to spread within the crowd.
" Hey isn't he the guy that the Clan Leader personally asked to join the clan ?", a teen asked .
" Indeed, I have even heard that his talent is comparable to our Young Lady. Even the elders quickly agreed to it".
" Look at him, he is so handsome."
" Kyaaa, I want to marry him."
Ignoring all of the remarks Qin Tian went to the middle of the ground where Feng Yan and his goons were beating Long Tian. Feng Yan and his goons saw Qin Tian but decided to ignore him thinking he was there for a good show.
Qin Tian then spoke, " Brother Feng Yan, can you please give me some face and spare that guy."
Feng Yan looked irritated, and said rather rudely," Can't you see I am busy here and why do yo want to save this trash. Are you his relative or something? "
Qin Tian hearing the answer wasn't pleased and he released the aura of Spirit Foundation 7th stage. After feeling the powerful aura, Feng Yan and his grunts looked shocked. While the aura itself wasn't harmful as both Feng Yan and his grunts were at Spirit Foundation Realm but it served a warning.
" Hey look that guy is at Spirit Foundation 7th stage at such young age" , person spoke.
" Really man, he just looks 15 '
" Damn, I didn't believe it when you said his talent is comparable to young lady."
The crowd talked among themselves. Feng Yan looked confused. With his grunts, he could beat the crap out of Qin Tian. But it might anger the Clan Leader as who knows how did the clan leader recruit a person with same talent as Feng Lin. So out of respect Feng Yan and his grunts went away.
' Young master are supposed to be arrogant aren't they? Damn , I thought I could get a face slapping opportunity ' Qin Tian thought in his mind.
Qin Tian then looked at the crowd as if saying, " The show is over, why are you still here?"
The crowd also went away and now there were no people in that place .
Long Tian who was covered in dirt ,his injuries being clearly visible stood up trembling and asked, " Why did you help me ? "
Qin Tian then looked curiously at Long Tian and said, " Who knows? Just a feeling maybe or we two share the same name. By the way my name is Qin Tian"
Long Tian looked confused but thanked him nonetheless." My name is Long Tian and thank you sir ."
Qin Tian smiled and said " You can call be Brother Tian and also take this " as he gave a Spirit Rejuvenation Pill to Long Tian.
Spirit Rejuvenation Pill was a Profound Grade Mid Tied Pill used for healing injuries and restoring
Qi / Spirit Energy ( Both can be used interchangeably)
For a Body Refinement Cultivators like Long Tian, It was a precious treasure.
Long Tian then tried to give back the pill to Qin Tian saying,' Brother Tian this pill is too valuable for wasting on a Body Refinement Cultivator like me. I can't accept it."
Qin Tian then said, " No no brother long, you can take as I have many pills like these. Besides I have declared you as my brother and I see potential in you. "
Long Tian was shocked. After all a great genius said he was potential. Genius were supposed to be prideful.
At first Long Tian didn't accept the pill because of
his pride. Long Tian is weak but he always had a pride.
After countless efforts from Qin Tian, Long Tian then accepted the pill.
After that both were going on their own direction.
" System Appraise Long Tian"
