Past life sage: This life a dual cultivator

"Now that I have managed to see the true appearance of this sword, I shouldn't focus on it for the time being", Zhan Chen thought to himself.

He knew this sword 'Devour' had more secrets but he was unable to find the secrets now. He was sure that devour had some secrets because there was netherworld language on it which seemed like a realm similar to the mysterious immortal realm. ​​

"Now before anything, Let's check whether that old man Zhen has returned or not", Zhan Chen thought to himself. He was quite concerned about these enemies who started to openly act against his Zhan family members.

He spread his soul consciousness and the entire Supreme general's estate came to his view. He could see his eldest aunt who was busy in instructing the servants. His second aunt was also with him.

He saw his big sister who was practicing a sword technique. Zhan Chen lost his focus for a moment as he witnessed her practicing her sword technique which was similar to sword dance of an elegant fairy.

He withdrew his gaze reluctantly because he had to focus on more important things at the moment. His gaze covered the entire estate. He searched through every hidden corners but couldn't find the old man who had gone to find the identity of enemies. "Strange! Why is he taking such a long time?", Zhan Chen felt confused.

He spread his soul consciousness towards the place where his uncle Lu was resting. He saw him sleeping peacefully on a bed. "Thanks God! Seems like that medicine worked properly", Zhan Chen sighed in relief.

Zhan Chen withdrew his soul consciousness and gazed towards the door of his room. "Little Tao, why are you standing outside?", he asked in a low voice.

"Ah! Young master, are you not cultivating now?", Little Tao asked after coming inside. Zhan Chen shook his head.

"What is the matter?", he looked at little Tao. Zhan Chen could see that she was slightly flustered.

"Young master, tomorrow is your coming of age ceremony. Are you prepared?", little Tao asked in a more flustered voice.

"Yes, I know. What is there to be prepared for?", Zhan Chen felt confused as he observed the flustered voice of little Tao.

"Young master, don't you know what aunts are planning?", little Tao said while crossing her little fingers.

"Little Tao, come here", Zhan Chen beckoned his hand. Little Tao came near him and stood there with a flushed face. Zhan Chen pulled her onto his lap and stroked her flowing hair.

"Now speak, what is going on your little head", he asked with a comforting smile. Little Tao blushed deeply after Zhan Chen pulled her into his lap. She was no longer the innocent little Tao of past. Her age was also growing with Zhan Chen. She was now in her budding stage. Coupled with the whispers of grown maids, she had some idea about the adult matters.

She was generally timid but the matter he head today was extremely important to her. So, she gathered her courage and came to confirm something from her beloved young master.

"Young master, they are looking for a suitable girl for you. You will be become an adult from tomorrow. Will you forget me after finding a beautiful girl!", little Tao spoke with all the courage she could muster. There were some tear drops leaked out from her eyes after she finished her sentences.

"Huh!", Zhan Chen felt speechless after listening the words of little Tao. "Little Tao, stop crying first", he wiped her tear drops gently.

"From where do you learn such things?", he asked her in a concerned voice. "Today when we are decorating the outside of ancestral hall, big sister Ruan and big sister Chyou were talking about it. "They said although young master likes me now, he will forget me once he gets a beautiful bride", her tear drops came out like broken dam after she ended her sentence.

"Wu...Wu, Young master, will you forget me?", little Tao asked while checking on her tear. Zhan Chen felt as if someone slashing knife in his heart.

"It is ridiculous. Don't cry, little Tao. I will never forget about you even if I get a girl or two in my life", Zhan Chen said in a serious voice. An uncontrollable rage appeared in his heart as he decided to teach these maids some lessons.

"Young master, are you telling the truth?", little Tao looked at him with little puppy eyes. Zhan Chen nodded his head and wiped her face full of tear stains.

"Bring me to those maids now. I want to ask them how dare they make you cry", Zhan Chen said while greeting his teeth.

"No, young master. You can't. Big sister Ruan and big sister Chyou are generally good to me. They haven't bullied me ever in the past", little Tao quickly pleaded as she could feel the rage and irritation of Zhan Chen.

Zhan Chen's rage slightly diminished after little Tao pleaded for those maids. I will still remind them to not tell such words Infront of Little Tao", Zhan Chen decided in his mind.

He pinched little Tao's cheeks and tickled her as she burst out laughing. Zhan Chen felt relieved after seeing her laugh again.

"Young master, can I come inside?", voice of a maid came from outside. "Door is open. You can enter", Zhan Chen replied.

The maid came with a plate of food which seemed delicious from its smell. "Young master, eldest madam wants you to sleep early today. Please finish the food and go to bed", the young maid spoke to Zhan Chen.

"Ok, I will rest properly", Zhan Chen replied. He finished his dinner after sometime and cultivated for a while. After it, he checked on his mother who was on verge of breakthrough.

The concentration of heaven and earth energy increased rapidly inside the room of Li Qingzhao. She breathed the heaven and earth energy continuously as the heaven and earth energy entered her body in great amount. After two hours, she felt like something shattered inside her body as she felt more power surging in her meridians.

Zhan Chen smiled and withdrew his gaze. Seems like, mom's natural talent is not bad. She has managed to reach third stage of True essence realm without any external aid. Although it will be not difficult for her next time. I will build a energy gathering formation in the middle of the estate", Zhan Chen decided in his mind.
