But the majority of the citizens knew that the town chief and his brother don't play when it comes to the wellbeing of the young master.
"Okay, you are alright" After a thorough scan with his spiritual essence he said feeling assured that Dean was alright.
"But I already said I had done a check on him even before he left the battlefield that day. So why are you that worried?".
The town chief said with a light laugh teasing Alex.
"What is all that, brother? Can't I check my little nephew to see if he is alright or not? I know you said you have checked him before, but I had to do it myself so I will get my result personally".
Alex said while tapping Dean on his shoulder before they sat down.
"I can't believe that you could have someone who you care for, it is strange to see that you also have a soft side." After they sat down the town chief.
"Dean, Don't mind your Dad for putting you in a tough spot; back them; he should be thankful that nothing happened to you. I would have dealt with him heavily,"
Alex said, filled with determination to handle the town chief if anything serious had happened to Dean. They could not help but laugh when he finished speaking
The atmosphere among them was filled with warmth and showed that they had a great bond.
"Okay Dean we just want to know if you are okay, don't stress yourself too much many things just focus on cultivating and growing stronger, how you survive the battle is nothing important to us as long as you are okay and not a practitioner, of an evil cultivation " the Chief said and continued
"Everyone has their secret, so keep that to yourself and don't share it easily unless you know that those you want to tell are those who are willing to die for you, understand?".
Dean was shocked by what he heard from the town chief he was expecting him to be asking about how he was able to fight someone as strong as Night Fury and come out unharmed. But he was telling him to protect his secret and not tell it to anyone Dean was touched by the display of kinship being played by the town Chief and Alex towards him.
"Why are you feeling all touched we all have our secrets as humans and as cultivators," Alex said
"I know all the hard training you have been going through all this while. There is no need to fear because the hard training has already started paying back for your diligence, so you have to work harder to grow further". The town chief said and continued
"The bigger the secret you have, the more strength you will need to protect it; you don't have to slack off, son, double your effort.
"I understand," Dean said feeling touched.
"And this now am getting to the most important part of our meeting. If you have a system in your possession. Please don't tell anyone about it. If do
, you won't end up well; you get that.
The Town chief said with a serious expression and tone.
"I know that you don't have one in your possession. Treat it like we did not discuss systems." The town chief said.
"Brother, you are making things sound scary to him. Don't kill him. Can't you feel that the pressure is too much?".
Alex said when he felt that the atmosphere of the room was getting all tense up from the warm and lively room they had before.
"Okay, okay, I get that".
The town chief said with a deep breath, feeling like he was pushing the matter too far just now, but it was all to protect his child.
"All that we will be talking about is beast-taming this time around."
Alex said and continued speaking taking the role of the lead speaker in the conversation.
"I know, you must have heard about it; it is not something new to those that are cultivating; it is an essential part of our cultivation."
When Dean heard what his Uncle was saying, he knew it was a serious matter. He was aware of the process of cultivation, so he knew about the beast-taming part.
But since he was unable to cultivate for some time he was not that fully knowledgeable about it.
So when hearing what Alex was saying, he completely focused so as not to miss any part of it. As far as the little details, he was not going to miss anyone.
"Since you were stuck in the Qi realm for a long time we decided not to tell much about some matter so as not to hurt you more".
"The beast taming helps us, cultivators to increase our strength when fighting and doing other things. It all depends on the type of the beast you tame and Its grade".
"Beast help in fighting, working in array setup, alchemy, forge of weapons, and other aspects like healing increase your speed."
"There are a lot of benefits of taming. Two cultivators might be in the same level but the one that has the strongest beast would end up winning if they should fight only if the set practitioner with the weaker spirit beast is a rare genius".
"You get what I am saying". Alex stopped to ask Dean if he understood what he was saying; he noticed that Dean was fully serious like he was lost in what he was hearing.
"Yes, yes, yes," Dean said the word three times while nodding his head seriously. With the look on his face, one could tell that he was enjoying the words that he was hearing.
"I fully understand what you are saying. So something is interesting about cultivating am just thinking about how my spirit beast would be like"
"Remember you need to be conscious about the grade of the spirit beast. That will help a lot. If the grade is not that high, it will be hard for Spirit Beasts to improve.
"Once you break through to the core realm, which is after the foundation realm, you have to tame a spirit beast".
"Okay, I will pass the information about the grade and other things about Spirit Beasts to you. Open your knowledge sea for me.
Alex said, passing some vital information to Dean. Dean easily received the information he needed.
"Be careful don't forget about what your Dad said about system".
