The Human Emperor (200-400)

C267: Little Sister's Secret!

Turning around, Wang Chong saw a familiar figure staring at him from beneath a tree.

"Teacher!"

Laughing, Wang Chong rushed forward.

The man beneath the tree was none other than Wang Chong's teacher, Demonic Emperor Old Man. After months of absence, the Demonic Emperor Old Man was visibly much stronger than before, and his complexion looked significantly better as well.

His aura seemed to have changed as well. The aura of callousness that he, as a man of the unorthodox, had once carried had faded, and in its place was gentility and composure.

Those who didn't know of his background would surely think that this gray-robed smiling elder before them was just an ordinary old man.

"Teacher really has changed a lot."

Looking at his teacher who was sipping on a cup of fragrant tea, Wang Chong thought. It was as if the dying man he had met back then wasn't the same man as he was seeing before him right now.

Even though Wang Chong didn't know how it all happened, he felt happy for his teacher.

"How is your progress in your martial arts going?" The Demonic Emperor Old Man asked as he placed his teacup down.

"It's still going fine, but I haven't managed to gather my Origin Energy to form the white ripples yet," Wang Chong bowed and replied respectfully.

He had reached Origin Energy Tier 9, but to be able to create the white ripples, his Origin Energy would need to be further refined.

Once he mastered it, his fighting prowess would increase by leaps and bounds.

This was exactly what Wang Chong had been doing every day on the spirit vein.

"Un. In order to create the white ripples, your Origin Energy must be compressed to the limit. This is also the reason why I called you here. You should proceed slowly and not get anxious. Given your talents, within five days at maximum, you should be able to make a breakthrough,” the Demonic Emperor Old Man said.

"Yes, I understand," Wang Chong replied respectfully.

No matter how fearsome a reputation the Demonic Emperor Old Man had out there, there was no denying that the latter did treat him very well. Rather than his disciple, the latter seemed to regard him as kin, instead.

Humans would reciprocate feelings. Unknowingly, Wang Chong also viewed the Demonic Emperor Old Man as his kin, as well.

"Haha, third brother, you're here!"

Suddenly, a laughter as crisp as the ringing of bells sounded. Then, a small figure with two conspicuous braids reminiscent of horns rushed out excitedly.

"What are you here for? Are you done with your homework already?" All of the sudden, the gentle Demonic Emperor Old Man's face turned stern, and he reprimanded the small figure sharply.

Shua!

As though a pail of cold water was poured over her, the excited little sister of the Wang Family suddenly stopped, and fear surfaced in her eyes. But soon, she pouted angrily and glared at the Demonic Emperor Old Man indignantly.

"Why? Do you feel indignant?"

"Hmph, what is there for you to be so smug about? To think that a person of your age would actually bully a small child like me!"

"Heh, say whatever you like, but as long as you can't defeat me, don't even dream about leaving here!"

"Old fogey!"
