610 : Promise

Chapter 610

Promise
Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

“What was the promise made ten thousand years ago about? And who in the world is he?”

After the disappearance of the master of the blood shadow, You XiaoMo impatiently started speaking. He could tell that the content of their discussion had a great deal to do with him from their conversation. As the party involved, he thought he had the right to know about it.

Ling Xiao also did not intend to hide it from him. After they left their Immortal’s cave Ling Xiao explained it to him while they were hurrying to their next destination, “He is the future heir of the Qilin Clan, Lin ShaoYi…”

Ling Xiao’s father had a high status in the Qilin Clan and was greatly favored by the Qilin Clan’s Valley Master who had high hopes for him. However, it was precisely because of this that they had ruled that he would be imprisoned within the Qilin Clan after making a mistake.

The succession for the Qilin Clan was somewhat different from the other three clans. The Valley Master would not reject a member’s right to succession because he had no backers behind him.

Taking Ji YunLang from the Demon Phoenix Clan as an example, he had great potential, but he was not the number one in the Demon Phoenix Clan. The most important reason why he had been considered as the heir was due the backing from his grandfather. However, the Qilin Clan was different. Identity and status were not the most important factors. In the eyes of the Qilin Clan’s Valley Master, strength was the most important factor.

Lin ShaoYi was the strongest member in the third generation of the Qilin Clan.

However, this was before the appearance of Ling Xiao. When the incident regarding Ling Xiao’s father was discovered, naturally Ling Xiao and his talent was also revealed.

The right to succession for Ling Xiao’s father was revoked, but Ling Xiao was also qualified to compete in the succession since he had the bloodline of the Qilin Clan in his veins. Even if the Qilin Clan did not acknowledge him, it would be of no use no matter how the other members of the clan opposed as long as the Valley Master recognized his right.

Lin ShaoYi would not let what belonged to him fall into other people’s pockets.

Although Ling Xiao had no intention of being the Valley Master, he was very willing to stir things up for the people in the Qilin Clan, so he agreed to Lin Shaoyi’s proposal.

Each would spend ten thousand years to train a Rainbow Level powerhouse. The reason for this long time limit was because there were various reasons to be considered. Finally, the two would participate in the Mage Assemblage held by the TongTian Palace.

Only Rainbow Level mages could participate in the Mage Assemblage. This event was organized by the TongTian Emperor himself. However, it had only been held within the TongTian Palace before, and was later opened to the whole continent. Therefore, one could participate even if they were not students the TongTian Palace or the XiaoYao Institution.

It was said that the mage who won the first prize could gain the secret how of the first TongTian Emperor became an existence that ascended beyond the Sacred Realm. The TongTian Palace only held this event once in a long while because this concerned an extremely important matter. This was also one of the reasons why they set the agreed time to ten thousand years later.

Lin ShaoYi was full of ambition. He would not give up any chance to be the number one absolute power. Although the Qilin Clan had their own secret techniques (秘法), they may also fail, so this was also called preparedness prevents calamity.
