Fenrir’s Journey: I Shall Devour The Heavens - Chapter 55
After taking a few deep breaths to calm herself down, Fenrir opened her eyes and stared at Wen Xiulan, saying, “You are right…my Master would not be happy if he knew I was seeking trouble with other people, especially if they had never wronged me…”
Wen Xiulan produced a small smile when she heard the young woman’s words, happy that she had not only been loyal to her Master, but that her Master also seemed to be a righteous person. For someone as young as the girl was, the amount of power she possessed could easily have gone to her head. If she wanted to, there was little most people could do to stop her from rampaging and doing whatever she pleased. This did, however, beg the question as to why the girl was even looking for cultivation techniques, to begin with…
It was absolutely impossible for a cultivator to reach the point of the young woman before her unless they had a powerful technique. Just the fact that the girl seemed to be able to pull in qi from the atmosphere, seemingly with the ease of breathing, showed that she should have a very powerful one at her disposal. This caused Wen Xiulan to wonder if, for reasons she couldn’t fathom, that the young girl’s Master had ‘hidden’ a cultivation technique inside of her. Since it seemed that her Master had died, it must have been a failsafe he had implemented to make sure she was able to become stronger, even with their absence…
Thinking this far, Wen Xiulan developed a sense of respect for the unknown Master of the girl and, decided introductions were in order, she asked, “This Little Sister…may I ask your name? I would also like to know the name of your esteemed Master…to have such a talented disciple, they must have been a very powerful and kind individual.” Based on what she had seen thus far, Wen Xiulan figured that she could get the girl to disclose some information if she pandered to her a little.
For the first time since their meeting had started, Fenrir produced an almost indiscernible smile, but a smile nonetheless. She gave a small nod, affirming Wen Xiulan’s words as she explained, “My name is Fenrir, a name bestowed to me by my Master, Vahn Mason. As far as strength goes…there are only two people I have ever seen who were stronger than my Master, though neither would be able to defeat him. And you’re right…more than anyone in the entire world, my Master was a very kind and gentle person…he would always help everyone, regardless of how difficult it might have been for him to do so…”
Wen Xiulan was very surprised to learn that the girl’s Master was actually a man, especially considering that there were very few men who would be capable of teaching someone with such a powerful Yin constitution. Most men, even if they didn’t cultivate Yang-based techniques, still had ambient Yang energy within their bodies. If they had been around someone like Fenrir for a long period of time, especially with the intimate relationship of Master and Disciple, she would have undoubtedly been ‘used’ by the other man for dual cultivation. The fact that Fenrir still had her ‘virgin yin’, and such a powerful one, showed this hadn’t been the case…
With this revelation, Wen Xiulan’s impression of the man named Vahn Mason increased exponentially, even though she had never heard of such a strange name before. The fact that he hadn’t taken advantage of his Disciple, even though she showed an immense amount of loyalty towards him, meant he must have been a truly great person. Considering that Fenrir also claimed he would go around helping people, Wen Xiulan couldn’t help but offer a silent prayer for the loss of such a kind and gentle soul in this cruel and lonely world…
