Wudang: Legends Of Qi Earth 206 Debrief

This was not just some clan, this truly was a family, and Alex was sitting right in the midst of them all, he was introduced to cousins, or in this case second cousins since his uncle was incapable of having children, or something like that since he didn't really know the full story, never the less, it was time he debriefed his grandfather, and the few important elders of the clan.

"Alright Feng'er tell me everything, and leave nothing out. You have made some decisions on behalf of the clan that would affect us, especially our standing with the sect, but you've also gotten us greater gains with the sky steel you found, and the custom orders for dual attributed weapons you've made.

The method for the forging of such weapons is actually quite sought after, and it has made the Zhang clan even more important to the Wudang sect, you have tilted the scales of balance in our favor. And for that, well done!"

The pride in his grandfather's voice was palpable, and it left Alex feeling very warm inside. While he hadn't thought too much about the full merits and demerits of most of his actions and how it would affect the clan, he had always strived to perform his absolute best in everything that he did. If he was just talented, that would be one thing, but what set Alex apart from the hundreds of other talents if not thousands; was that he was a hard worker. But yeah, he was still a favored son of heaven.

"I can't talk too much about my abilities grandfather, but what I can say about that is; I'm in more danger than you realize. If the world should truly find out what my talent and abilities truly entail. It would not only cause a war so great that it would rival the divine war, it would also spell the end and doom of the Zhang clan and the Wudang sect." Alex didn't want to seem so dark, but anything other than the truth wouldn't be fair to his grandfather and this group of granduncles and grand aunties.

"We are family, and I can see that you have a filial son first brother, but he should not underestimate the bond of the Zhang clan. There's no odds in this life that we would not be able to face together!" a man who had his glossy black hair with streaks of white pulled back in a ponytail said to Alex's grandfather. This man was known as the first elder, the younger brother of Alex's grandfather.

"I do not underestimate out family granduncle, just with the power of Yi Jin Jing alone, were capable of going up against an army of a thousand equal level cultivators, with just ten men. But this is not a problem that encompa.s.ses the planet alone, other planes, other universal powers as strong as the force behind the empire of heaven if not stronger. Don't ask me why I would be so valuable to them, the less you all know, the safer you can be, at least until I've gotten a little bit stronger, then I can tell you all about it with ease.

Never the less, if we have any plans on bringing both empires down, we have to accelerate the time frame and get it done fast. But before that our most pressing matters would probably be the ark war. I say this with at least 65% guarantee, but there's a possibility I would be able to gain the inheritance of the G.o.ds without having to fight for it, and I would be able to bestow said inheritance on people of my choosing."

The moment Alex had said that, multiple eyes grew wide and his grandfather waved his hands. The moment he did so, Alex felt his vision turned white for a second before they changed locations. Alex looked up noticing the cold, the storm and the snow, it was so intense he could feel the frost rapidly spreading allover his body. Seconds later three others joined them, it was the first elder, and the second and seventh elders, both women. From the looks of it, it seems only this four people knew Alex's grandfather would bring him here.

"where are we?" Alex asked as he held his arms to his body, desperately trying to keep the cold away. His grandfather waved his arms again, and the cold vanished, leaving Alex no other choice but to stare at the vast expanse of white around him.

"This is Everest, but go on with what you were saying, where we are doesn't matter." The seventh elder said to his as her full grey hair flapped with the wind.

"The reason why no one has been able to get the inheritance so far, is because it has to be bestowed, and not by the G.o.ds who left it behind after their death, but by the guardian meant to inherit the mandate of keeping the earth safe, and that person is me.

For now, all I have are speculations and directions from a very wise fish, don't ask me what that means; but the crux of the matter is, I can make it so that a significant amount of out clan members can obtain the ancient powers of the fallen G.o.ds. It wouldn't be as strong as the G.o.ds seeing as they're just mortal, but it would be enough to give every major power in the universe pause, the Wudang sect would be the most powerful force in the universe," Alex explained to them with a straight face.

"I take it that you would need something to make this work in you favor, so what would that be?" the second elder asked, her bright purple eyes glinting like precious stones set ablaze.

"I need allies, lots of them, people will to trust in me and make proper deals to thwart and eliminate our enemies during the ark wars, seeing as the entire universe would be our opponents. And finally, I'll need expendable resources, and by that I mean people that would die just so we can get ahead, and I need a lot of them!"

Cross watched the Zhang clan with a look of wistfulness on her face, admittedly she wished the family she had was as close to each other as they were. But there was nothing of the sort, in her family; politics and stabbing someone in the back was everyone's favorite pa.s.s time. She looked won at the letter in her hand, and couldn't help but shudder as she ripped it to shreds and let the wind carry it along, but even then the words kept ringing in her ears.

"you have done enough Minerva, it is time to come home, good job!"

It wasn't too difficult to say that she now had her heart stuck in her throat, but there wasn't anything she could do about it. She really had to leave soon, and honestly, that was not something she wanted to happen. She couldn't help feeling that somehow she had found a place for herself here, and if she leaves, there goes her chance at happiness. But she had to leave, by this point even she knew that she couldn't be trusted.

"You know if you think too hard, your head will hurt." A deep but somewhat brash voice said from behind her, heavy as her heart was, she couldn't help the smile that came over her face. She's only known this young man for two days, but she couldn't help the giddy feeling her stomach had every time he was close to her. There was just something about Yun Fao and his manly but simple character that drew her to him. Plus, he was younger, so it was kind of fun in its own way.

"You sound like your worried about me?" she asked him with a mocking smirk on her face.

"I am worried about you; I don't have to sound like it because it's true." He answered back resolutely.

"But we've only known each other for two days, is that enough time to be worried about me? You should be careful lover boy I'm not who you think I am." If Alex and the others were here to see Cross having an actual conversation, it would drive them mad with shock, but Yun Fao too? They'll lose their minds.

"So? Is it supposed to matter how long we've known each other for me to be worried about you?" Yun Fao asked her, but she couldn't give him an answer. His sincerity completely caught her off guard, and his next words almost drove her mad.

"Well, if we can leave that aside, I'll ask you a very important question, though I'm not sure now's a good time given the current state of things, but regardless…. can you have lunch with me tomorrow!" and all she could do was look on shocked as for the first time ever, someone asked her out on a date, and even worse it was at a funeral.
