“Who are you? Where is this, and why am I here?” Blake questioned the individual.The old man just laughed and continued to swing his legs—this annoyed Blake for being ignored and stood there looking at the old man. He then picked up the apple on the ground and looked at it curiously. It was a golden apple that looked very tempting, so he took a bite. His mind was swarmed with all kinds of techniques of medicine and poisons. He could distinguish between medicines and poisons and use the Chinese acupuncture techniques with silver needles and finger acupuncture. Folk Medicines came to him not too dissimilar to Chinese Medicine, and the native used herbs and roots to cure illnesses. The more Blake ate the apple, the more knowledge he received. He could cure all types of diseases and ailments. When he finally finished the apple core, his head was swimming with all this knowledge, not wanting to lose any lifesaving methods he was receiving.The old man then jumped out of the tree and stood
Within Blake’s mind palace, another stone tablet with ancient writings appeared. These were the teachings of collecting Qi of the world within the body and opening his spirit channels. Blake didn’t waste any time and began opening his channels throughout his body, gathering spiritual energy and refining it into energy for the body. The method was broken into three stages: channel opening, energy refining, and spiritual gathering. Blake was a cultivator’s genius, and he comprehended the teachings and was immediately able to cultivate the energy around him.Blake then awoke from the enhancement, looked upon the three, and bowed. He knew the body temperament and cultivation method were gifts from the Great Elders.“Now that your mind and body are ready, we shall begin to give you the remaining inheritance. Gerald will bestow to you the alchemy and elixir formulas. As you get stronger and progress, more of the inheritance will be given when you are ready.” The Dragon said, looking up into
“So, Tabitha, what are your plans for today? Why don’t we go shopping and have a girl’s day out?” Sylvia asked Tabitha looking hopeful.“I’m sorry, Sylvia, but I will attend Blake’s parent’s resting place today, and then we have to return to Swanville.” Said Tabitha looking at Sylvia with a saddened expression.“You’re going to see Aunt and Uncle? I haven’t visited in a long while. Can I please join you, Blake?” asked Sylvia, startled when Robert slapped the table.“What’s the meaning of this, Sylvia? He is the head of the house now, and you will address him as Master or Young Master.” Robert was exasperated over his grandchild’s lack of decorum towards Blake.“Grandfather, it’s alright. I don’t feel comfortable being considered the Master yet, so Sylvia, it’s okay that you can call me by my first name if you want. We’re family and in private quarters, and I’m sure Sylvia knows the etiquette when we are out in public.” Said Blake looking at all of them. “And yes, you can accompany us
Alarmed by what he was witnessing, he placed his hands upon the center of their chest and guided the energy to form a sea of spiritual opening. The energy then started to stabilize. At that moment, both women opened their eyes and felt Blake’s hands on their chest.“Ahh, what are you doing, you pervert.” Screamed Sylvia.“Ahh, brother, please don’t.” Screamed Tabitha.Blake didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at that moment. All he wanted to do was to stabilize their condition. How could his actions be interpreted any other way?“I was trying to help you stabilize the power in you. If not, your bodies would have exploded with the surging of spirit energy.”Fright was on both of their faces when Blake explained what was happening.“Sorry, I thought you were taking advantage of us.” Said Sylvia, first with her head looking down.“Sorry, brother, it was all a misunderstanding.” Replied Tabitha with her head also held down.“It’s okay. You both are stabilized for the time being. You both
“Listen, you brat, I haven’t been the groundskeeper for many years, but I will not have you disrupting the harmony of this cemetery. Do you get that? So, I want you and your companions here to leave and don’t cause any trouble quietly.” The man demanded towards Blake.“Sir, I don’t understand why we would leave before visiting uncle and auntie?” asked Sylvia, looking right at the man.“My God, another one. Leave and ignore everyone you see here.” The man exclaimed with a surprised expression.“What’s your name? I haven’t seen a groundskeeper who is so rude to visitors.” Said Tabitha, who was getting annoyed by this man’s attitude towards them.“What is this? Can all three see and hear me?” asked the man, looking agitated now.Blake took a long look at the man before him and lightly pushed upon his shoulder. The man felt solid to him. Fearing that the way the man was acting was that he could be a ghost.“Dam, you can even touch me. Look, my name is Harrold Leeville. I was the groundske
“Father, what happened all those years ago? Wasn’t it just a car accident? It was unavoidable fate that took place.” Said Blake looking at his father’s back.“Yes, it was a car accident, but it wasn’t an unavoidable fate. We were murdered, my son. The breaks and accelerator, with the steering, were tampered with, they were unresponsive, and we went over the cliff.” Blake’s father finally said, sighing afterward.This revelation into his parent’s death was surprising to the three. Who would have wanted to murder Blake’s parents? True, Thomas was the oldest and would have inherited the family, but who would have been brave enough to cause Thomas’s demise?Blake had a stern expression when he heard his father’s explanation of the accident. ‘Why wasn’t it known that the car had been tampered with and that it was no accident but murder? Was there a conspiracy in the family, someone holding out on this information that could have placed someone high in the family at risk?’ These thoughts we
“It was a different time then. I had no choice in the matter, and you don’t know how my grandfather was back then. It was all for the sake of the family’s interest. Who’s to say they even remember this trivial contract between the two families.”Heather’s disdain for her husband’s actions was loosened, and then she smiled at him, seeing him in a pitiful state. She placed her hand on his cheek and kissed him on his lips.Seeing his parents showing their love for each other, Blake just smiled. The others couldn’t help but let out a small giggle at the loving couple.“I’m very proud of you, my son. You have grown into a wonderful man. With your accomplishments, your future is very bright. I have no more regrets about this life I had in the past.” Stated Blake’s father after their kiss and smiled at the three. “Blake, you’re responsible for these fine young women in your care, don’t let anything happen to them.”“Girls, please take care of Blake for me. He’s a bit headstrong sometimes but
Harrold stopped when Blake and the two women exited the cemetery before crossing the border.“Now, you mind your way. I will talk with them and try to calm them down. You should not come back unless you want troubles coming your way.” Harrold said to them as he turned back into the cemetery.“What now?” asked Sylvia as she watched Harrold walk up to the crown that had formed and approach them.“We leave, I have some things to discuss with grandfather during lunch, and then we need to head back to Swanville.” Said Blake heading back to the car.Getting back into the Rolls-Royce Phantom, Blake headed back to the estate, leaving the scene behind them. The silence was all that was heard until Sylvia struck up a conversation.“So, I was the one who saved your life back then. So that means you owe me a life debt.”“If I recall, it was due to my mother’s decision to leave me behind that saved my life.” Said Blake, not taking his eyes off of the road.“Buuut, it was because she couldn’t bear
The voice then didn’t speak any longer as Yawayer frowned. She didn’t want to personally leave Heaven and deal with the Four Guardians herself, but the actual creator wanted her to go, and she was helpless to follow his commands. It was the same with the God wars and the rebellion in Heaven all those years ago. She regretted her actions, but what was she supposed to do? The creator had a plan involving her pretending to be him and utilizing the Heaven Angels to bring the Power of Faith to this dimension. In the end, she lost her bestie and had all of the women of her race exiled to Hell, a barren dimension, as instructed by the creator. Now, he wanted her to personally go and release the four guardians and cause destruction upon the Mortal realm to bring more Power of Faith to them.Sighing again, she prepared herself and took out a golden-lined jade token. With this token, she could easily descend and not have to pay such a price for her cultivation to degrees. She changed into a mor
“Don’t look at me like that. We are to leave for the Inner World now. Ladies, we will depart first.” Blake Three stated and headed to the Traveling Formation.“What, no kiss goodbye?” Clara asked as she dropped the sound barrier between her, Blake Two, and the rest of the world.“I’ll kiss you if you want.” Blake Two said next to her.“I would never deny a kiss from you,” Clara said, kissing Blake Two thoroughly.Blake Three and Susan Hemingway entered the Traveling Formation, and Blake guided the Formation to take them to the Inner World. To Susan’s surprise, a tunnel of lights arrived, and she looked at it wonderfully.“The Thraveling Formation will bring us to a courtyard of the family I married into. The pressure in the Inner World is greater than in the Small World, and the Spirit Qi is denser. I will create a light barrier around us to help with the sudden pressure and see if you can handle the change in atmosphere.” Blake Three said with concern over Susan’s well-being.“I unde
Blake Two saw the revelation in her eyes as she realized the situation. He had a foreboding feeling and saw it change into a lustful stare.“As I had said, you are married, and my cultivation will cause you harm, so I’m afraid I will have to decline your offer.” Blake Two said, looking at Susan with an apologetic smile.The Goddesses laughed at Blake’s comment, which confused the man.“What’s so funny?” Blake Two asked, confused over their sudden outburst.“It’s not only your cultivation inside of you. Do you realize you may also be the cure for the Vampiere condition?” Clara asked Blake.“Cure? How so?” Blake asked, not knowing where this was leading.Susan Hemingway heard what Clara said and was surprised by her words. There was never a cure for her race’s condition. They only had to bear the thirst and hunger of their condition. Normal treatments had all failed when trying to revert back to humans. Many wanted to, but most wanted to continue having the power that the condition brou
Blake was speechless hearing this from Susan Hemingway. Was she not already married to Reginald? She was also of the vampire race, and his cultivation could harm her condition.“I. I don’t think that would be a wise decision. I’m….” Blake began.“All too willing to become yours.” Came a voice that Blake never would have believed saying such a thing.Claire walked to the couple and smiled at Susan Hemingway.“Who is this enchanting woman, Blake?” Claire asked, looking at Susan.“This is MRS. Hemingway of the Hemingway family.” Blake introduced Claire to Susan and emphasized MRS.“Ah, so you are a….” Claire hesitated in her speech.“Vampire, yes, we feed on blood,” Susan said, seeing the startled woman.“Understood,” Claire said and smiled kindly.“Always the gigolo, are we not?” a voice came from behind Claire.Blake looked, and to his surprise, an elderly woman coming from behind her. His surprise was warranted since he had never allowed such a person to enter the Small World. Blake l
“Sorry, but it seemed important. Is everyone okay?” Blake asked, looking at the area where Tabitha had come to call upon him.“Yes, they are in the living room waiting for my return,” Tabitha replied.“Okay, I will take it from here. Don’t worry.” Blake said, hugging her to comfort her fears.“Thank you for coming,” Tabitha said and held onto Blake for a while as her motions became calmer.Blake then let her go, and they proceeded to the living room, where the couple were waiting for Tabitha’s return.They were surprised when they saw Blake’s arrival, as they assumed he was away on business.“You arrived,” Susan Hemingway said with surprise.“Yes, with Tabitha saying that your family was here, I came quickly. What seems to be the trouble? I will help as much as I can.” Blake said he had a good impression of this family and didn’t want more trouble in the future because of their race.“This is the situation. My family is on the brink of extinction.” Reginald quickly stated.“How is tha
Sir. Aldridge then left the room and made a phone call. A man in red robes was drinking a glass of bourbon and sitting next to the fireplace with a nice fire crackling when the phone rang beside him.“Yes.” The red cardinal replied.“Your eminence, the ones known as Azrael, Chamuel, and Ezekiel, have disappeared after the destruction of the holy temple. They left with Blake and have not returned as planned.” Sir. Aldridge replied over the phone.There was silence on the cardinal’s end as the news was shocking and startling. Then, a respiring voice was heard on the other end.“What of the Hemingway family?” The cardinal inquired.“We have been only monitoring them, and they have not caused any trouble since they had last met with Blake Elon. It seems they keep in the shadows and do not want to bring any attention to themselves. Azrael wanted to only monitor their movements for the time being since Blake Elon was a greater threat to the Holy Order, but since….” Sir. Aldridge informed th
The two sisters looked at Julie with confusion. Family vacation? When was this supposed to take place? Then Tabitha’s eyes widened, and she remembered that Blake had promised them a family vacation after Tabitha had graduated from college, and she smiled in her remembrance. She stopped at a posterboard when she first met Blake, and he promised her a family vacation to celebrate her graduation. With all that had happened since then, she had forgotten entirely this promise until Julie brought it up.“I forgot Blake’s promise since then,” Tabitha replied.“Then it’s good that I reminded you,” Julie said.“Mom, with everything going on, it’s going to be a miracle that even he remembers the promises he made,” Tabitha replied and checked on her son, who had woken from his nap.“No, a promise is a promise. Blake has to make it happen.” Julie said, folding her arms to reintegrate her demand.“Mom, I’m a Mother as well, and going galavanting on vacation is the last thing I need to do,” Tabitha
“What do you think Blake is doing to her?” Kelly, who was naïve, wondered as pain and punishment sounded from the home.“Sounds like he is punishing her for not being forward with her information when they came into the truce,” Sylvia replied to Kelly.“Blake doesn’t punish. He’s too nice of a person.” Kelly replied, not knowing Blake for too long.The woman around her looked at her naive nature and laughed.“Blake once killed all those who had occupied this town because they were evil people who were planning on harming the world,” Sara replied, as she had been there when it had happened, even to the point when her cousin wanted to kill her and Blake only to meet his demise at the hands of his saviors.“So, he’s not kind?” Kelly asked, worried.“Blake is kind, loving, and sweet to his family and friends. If you cross his bottom line, you are his enemy, and you will suffer greatly in his hands. Blake always says he would rather have many friends than many enemies. It’s unfortunate; he
“Okay, Clara. How will you guide us, and how did you enter Blake’s Traveling Formation? Only family or someone with a jade token can enter and travel?” Claire asked, leading Clara from the Traveling Formation.“He, he. A little secret, my dear.” Clara said, and this time, she sounded her age.Roseline was, after all, a Formations’s Master. The Formation Blake had created, even with the help of Silver Light, was still a weak Formation that she could infiltrate. If Blake had utilized the Scripture writings, this would have been another story for her.“Okay. Let’s not quibble over details. Is he still with Lucy?” Clara asked.“Yes,” Claire replied, looking at the home Blake had brought Lucy to.Suddenly, loud slapping came from the home, as did loud anguish sounds.SLAP!“AUGHT!”SLAP!“AUGH! MORE!”SLAP, SLAP!Everyone around looked towards the home, surprised to hear the beatings that were taking place within.Blake was there with a paddle in hand, and Lucy was bent over a coffee table
