The Chaos Dragon Prince

Kali's face was full of utter shock as she stared at the green emerald and ancient book. Once again, her brother was just chock-full of surprises despite just waking up!

Given that she was born in this universe, Kali naturally had far more information on soul energy.

Even though she couldn't sense the energy, the fact that Cain could spawn these two items from seemingly nowhere was enough to convince her. As her surprise increased with each second, Kali snapped her attention towards Cain, giving him the proudest of looks.

Cain only blinked his eyes at this seemingly exaggerated reaction of Kali. Gauging from her bewilderment, Cain assumed that usage of the soul must be difficult to achieve.

Or at the very least difficult for someone like him who has no aptitude for cultivation.

And while this could be seen as positive, Cain couldn't help but feel a slight suspicion growing within his mind.

Despite being in a bad home life situation, he felt like things were lining up too smoothly. To immediately meeting his sister, having a perfect excuse to explain his lack of memories, and now being able to use soul energy much faster than he and what this previous body could do.

All of this made Cain think of one term. Fate.

While Cain knows Fate plays parts in the cultivation universe, it didn't sit right with him at all if he was also a person getting strong along with Fate.

After all, Cain wants a life of complete freedom and complete control!

Something like Fate would go against every single one of his ideologies. But before Cain could contemplate such deep philosophical matters further, he focused his attention back on Kali.

Keeping his expression relaxed and calm, he told her, "Yea...I suppose it seems like I did improve. Betting our Eldest siblings' most gracious 'gifts' played a part with this. Now, I can mobilize my soul energy far better than before."

"Great….this is great!" Kali was absolutely elated. She raised her hand in the air in a cutesy pumping motion before beginning to say then,

"This just set our plans months, no, days ahead of schedule. Now we can-"

A loud bang from Cain's door suddenly interrupts Kali's excited spiel. In that instant, an immediate sour expression crossed Kali's face. If it was anyone else than Cain, Kali couldn't stop the feelings of displeasure from boiling over.

While with Cain, he simply felt indifferent to this newcomer. Subconsciously, Cain compared whoever was at his door this time, to Kali's first meeting.

Kali exuded an unfathomable familiarity aura that just drew Cain's eyes over to her. She may have very little power, but Cain felt far more dazzled with her aura.

Comparatively, whoever was standing at his doorway gave Cain none of those eye-capturing feelings. Even as this person was tremendously stronger than both him and Kali, he wasn't disturbed by their presence.

Right then, both Cain and Kali quickly turn their gazes over to address whoever was at Cain's doorway.

Standing at Cain's doorway was a handsome young man dressed in sleek dragon design robes. This young man carried himself quite well, naturally exuding a proud air that only a genius like himself can craft.

"Is there something so important going on Lei, that you just need to seek us out for?" Kali's tone carried an undisguised amount of annoyance.

However, Huang Lei didn't focus on Kali's sarcasm at this moment.

Immediately when he opened his door, Huang Lei's gaze focused squarely on Cain. His expression didn't hide at all the increasing shock he was feeling. He was most obviously expecting something else, and a small click of his teeth could be heard by both siblings.

"This really isn't anything pertaining to you, Kali. More specifically, the Emperor wanted Cain to come down to the main hall for a meeting if he's awake. And well….it would be imperative you hurry down there."

Huang Lei had quickly regained his wits and relayed his information. As he spoke to them, he only took one glance at the two items on Cain's bed before quickly glossing over them as if they weren't important at all.

Then, without giving either Cain or Kali a chance to respond, Huang Lei immediately walked off, treading back down the hallway.

Throughout that entire interaction, his stance was mainly indifferent, besides that curious reaction at the start.

"Tch. That guy is always impatient as ever." Kali audibly clicked her teeth.

Looking past Huang Lei's attitude, she briefly pondered his information before a realizing glint sparked within her eyes.

Turning back to Cain, who still looked calm even after that interaction, Kali said, "I think I have an idea on who this could be. There aren't many who would want to specifically seek an audience with you. So it has to be little Ms.honorable and that clingy old man."

Given their Family's high status and position, Cain started to quickly connect the dots on who could possibly be visiting. Since this was something requested from the Dragon God Emperor himself, he was assured of his guess.

"An old man and a young girl, huh? Let me guess….this is some sort of powerful Sect Master and his daughter, right?" Cain asked.

If there's one thing he knows is highly common in these types of situations is arranged relationships. Especially if one part is a powerless person, the Elders always find some sort of reason to pair these kinds of couples together.

Although no matter who it is, Cain was determined to have this meeting go his way rather than letting some arrogant young beauty pull him along.

"Hmmm, just, not his daughter. But this is a girl that holds an incredible lofty position within her Sect. Basically, they're most likely here to discuss this continuous engagement between you and her. We tried asking Grandfather why this is necessary, but all he told us is that this girl is extraordinary." Kali explained with a slightly wry smile.

"Heh, and let me take a wild guess here. This girl probably resents me a lot for my low cultivation aptitude, right?"

Cain let out a slight snort. Initially, he was utterly assured of his guess, but Kali's following action immediately confused him.

"Oh? You think that? Hehe~." Instead of agreeing, Kali actually started to giggle.

Her sweet giggling voice made Cain raise an eyebrow. Seeing his confused reaction, even more, amusement arose within Kali's mind.

In a slightly teasing tone, she told him, "You really are sharper than before, brother. And yes, I know arrogance is common among the divine younger generations. But that girl? Weell….actually, how about you just see it for yourself? Come on, let's go."

Cain felt his curiosity heighten, but he didn't try to inquire more. He could admit it would be interesting to be proven wrong.

At the same time then, both he and Kali stood up from the bed.

Cain felt relatively normal standing on his own two feet. He only felt and heard some of his bones cracking out their stiff kinks as he was immobilized for three whole days.

Stretching his arms out to crack even more locked up joints, Cain had suddenly noticed something. He and his sister were taller than he expected.

Cain couldn't say the exact height, but he estimated both of them to be at least six feet tall.

Furthermore, when looking down at himself, Cain also noticed his silky black hair was quite long, easily reaching down to the center of his chest. At this moment, Cain started to wonder just what his new appearance was.

Because of his sister's beautiful appearance, he assumed he too must have some handsome look that would blow his previous body out of the water.

Focusing past his looks, a question suddenly surfaced within Cain's mind, and he asked,

"Say, Kali, how strong is Lei? I'm asking because I thought I would've felt some kind of, you know, powerful aura from him. I can understand not feeling one from you, but he is one of our siblings, right? Less I'm mistaking him."

Kali flashed Cain a bright, beautiful smile as she told him, "Oh, there's no doubt about it. Lei is certainly one of our older brothers, and he's a genius already in the Divine Realm of cultivation. However, despite us having a low aptitude for cultivation, both of us can easily resist anyone's natural aura. Only when they use a sliver of their energy will we be affected."

Cain's eyes lit up in surprise over this. Being able to resist even people's natural aura would be a fantastic skill for the future.

During her previous explanation about their home life, Kali mentions bits and pieces about their cultivation system.

And she explained that starting from the Mortal Realm of cultivation, if one becomes powerful enough, they will gain a natural aura that leaks from their body.

This would happen since a cultivator wouldn't have perfect control over every aspect of their cultivation, leading to a bit of their energy overflowing out of them.

Of course, to have perfect control over every aspect of one's cultivation is hugely challenging to achieve.

Kali claims that not even their Grandfather could achieve this.

But this didn't mean that letting a sliver of a natural aura leak out is a bad thing at all. On the contrary, this would serve as a way to show off a favorable impression or determine how powerful somebody is if they're concealing their cultivation.

While a natural aura barely tells anything about one's true combat strength, it's still an undoubtedly display of power.

And Cain knows showing a high bravado even in front of terrifyingly powerful people can go a long way. Bravery and courage are qualities many respects in a person.

Furthermore, Cain wonders if there would be a way for him to outright develop a technique that would help him resist aura suppression from higher cultivation levels. That would be perfect for any possible plans.

But these were all thoughts for the future.

For now, Cain nodded at Kali, and while letting loose a curious smile, he told her, "At least we have something going for us. Alright, let's go meet this honorable girl you're hyping up."

"Oh Cain, you'll see." Kali's teasing smile returned.

And with that, both she and Cain swiftly stepped out of the room.
