Double Moon - Chapter 53
Chi An left with the old man. They came to an old house. The residence was big and had many wolves statues in the courtyard. Even though the building was old, it was expansive. It means that the yard was big, and the house had many rooms.
Just as they came to the house. A female came to them. She was the same age as Chi An and with noble and pure temperament. Her eyes were full of charm like a Phoenix.
“Nuwa Qianru, what is it?” the old man called to the girl.
“Grandpa, where did you go again. I have been looking for you. I hope you did not go to cause trouble?” The girl unhappily spoke as she pumped her cheek innocently.
“Hahaha! Little Qianru, I was just resting. You know my heart is weak, and my bones are brittle.” The old man joked.
“Where is your heart weak? You just want to lazy around, hmph!” She snorted. Clearly, the girl had noticed such a shameless attitude from the man very often. Even though it was not supposed to be anything new, the girl showed anger towards him. Well, it was not much of a rage as the girl did not have a real killing intention towards the old bone. Chi An watched these two without so much as a care. Well, how the old acted was not his business.
“Grandpa, I have prepared food for you. Should I add for him too?” The girl finally turned her gaze towards Chi An. However, his presence had little effect on her.
“Him? Don’t bother with him. He has what to do now.” With that, Chi An left with the old man. They came to a single room. The room was dark and ancient. The aura of terror surrounded it.
In the middle of the room was a long gray coffin. Ten statues of wolves surrounded the coffin. They were spewing out different colors of flames. The old man waved his hand, and the lid covering the coffin shifted. He suddenly grabbed Chi An and stoned him inside the coffin. He waved his hand, and the lid closed. He converged his hand into an Anjali mudra (praying position), and white light appeared on his palms. His face was severe. The fire that was spewing from the statues stopped for a moment, the whole place shook, and they began to move in a circular motion as the statues spewed more intense fire from their mouth.
The gray coffin began to shine with silver and gold light.
At this point, the voice of Chi An echoed from inside the coffin. “what are you doing, smelly old man?” he cursed.
“You will be spending ten days here. You better prepare yourself.” The old man turned around and left the place while the voice of Chi An rang continuously like a mad bear.
Inside the dining hall, soybeans and cucumber were served with their stable rice. The old man picked up his chopsticks with his palms rubbed together. He was happy to gulp the food inside his stomach. However, Nuwa Qianru had just seen the opportunity to hound the old man with many questions.
“Who is that boy that you brought this time, grandpa?” she questioned.
“Why don’t we eat first? Why are you bothered with him?” the old man impatiently retorted, his gaze still on the food.
Just as he was about to begin to eat, the voice of Nuwa Qianru spooked him.
“What are you doing with him,” she uttered. The food in the old man’s chopsticks fell down. He glared at her. However, her eyes were innocent and showed no fear. She did not intend to back down.
“He is a special case. He is not from here, but he can get here. Make sure to protect him and don’t fight with him.” The old man neglected the other questions that the girl was throwing at him.
After five days, the old man went back to the unusual room. He stood in front of the coffin and waved his hand. Two ancient jars came to him, and with the casual gesturing of his hands, the two jars opened, and two white slightly flexible elements came out. They were divine aurae.
Just as the two ancient divine aurae came out, the room began to quake. However, the room had a formation that blocked all external sounds and interference. Two lines of tears strolled down from the old man’s eyes to his cheek. These divine aurae were from Chi An’s parents, after all. The old man was giving it to their flesh and blood.
He waved his hands forcefully, and the two ancient divinities rushed into the coffin. At the same, Chi An yelled loudly. The two divinities were going to be mixed together with his deity and completely merge. His whole body was disintegrating and integrating at a fast pace. Golden light shone on the coffin so brightly that the form of the coffin was lost. However, the scream of Chi An became louder and louder.
On the tenth day, the old man and Nuwa Qianru were chatting. Suddenly, the whole building began to shake. Outside, there was also a bit of tremor. The bright day turned dim but reverted back in a flash. The old man abruptly disappeared from the hall. He appeared in front of the coffin. The statues of ten wolves had stopped rotating, and their intense fire had calmed down.
The old man casually waved his hand, and the lid of the coffin opened. A male walked out, slowly like a heaven descent. No, like a dazzling star.
His medium hair with wispy end had become longer. His skin had become more delicate, and his temperament had become calmer and gentler yet confident and enthusiastic. In general, he looked smarter and brighter. However, the only problem was that he was stark naked.
“Old man, I should kill you right now.” His voice carried a surge of power that was irresistible, and his blues eyes changed instantly. His right and left eyes had a double silver moon inscribed beautifully on them. They were cold and full of power. The old man was awed by what he was seeing, and he could not speak.
“Have you not seen enough?” Chi An reminded the old man again. The old man casually flickered his hand and gave him a silver robe. At this moment, the eyes of Chi An had changed back.
“Meet me when you are done,” with the word dropped, the old man left.
