Henry looked at Maria while they waited for Ken's parents to arrive. Although blindfolded, Maria could still feel the questioning gaze underneath. "His mother is injured severely, and her core was destroyed. She spends most of her time in bed accompanied by her husband," Maria explained in a quiet voice the depressing atmosphere in the house. "Master Haoran will be here soon," The maid soon returned and served everyone tea, followed by a man. Henry understood that Mei probably did not accept guests…-

Ken met the two old men near the stables. There was a whole section filled with beasts belonging exclusively to the Sue Clan, and every elite clan had one of those sections. "We will move now, only the three of us. We will use the only seventh-rank mount our clan has. Although it's normally good-natured and is not aggressive, try not to irritate it. It can harm you in a fraction second when you ride its back." Fernando warned Ken before he bringing the beast. "Understood, Uncle." Fernando walked…

A few weeks ago: Henry walked into Ken's house after being called and sat in front of the young master. "I have a task for you. Nice new blindfold by the way." Henry turned his head toward Ken in silence. Since he did not have something important to say about it, he remained quiet as always. A black blindfold was wrapped around his head, hiding his blind eyes. "I have a few subordinates… a few people I have helped gather good karma before they return to the wheel of reincarnation. One was a…

"So, will I be moved out of the sect for my safety?" "hah… We still need to decide on that. However, your opinion will have the most weight in the final decision. I'd like to repeat my thoughts; while I can't promise that there will be no additional assassination attempts, I think here's one of the safest places for you. Are you sure you want to move out of the sect's territory?" Fernando sighed and asked. He disagreed with Ken's opinion regarding this, but since it was a decision about Ken's…

"Senior Brother, I could escort them to Young Master Ken's house, it'd be safer if they had one more guard by their side." One guard suggested to the leader. After pondering on it for a moment, the leader nodded and sent him with them, "You're right, go with them." "Yes, Senior Brother," the guard bowed and hurriedly followed Ken along with Jake and Max. "Hello, Young Master, I'm Elliot." "Mhm." Ken only offered a hum in response and continued walking, wondering whether Eliott was the final…

"Big Brother, are we really going to settle for a fifth-stage cultivator this time?" Three people were sitting on tree branches and talking. The one who voiced the last opinion was the only girl in the trio. "There's nothing we can do about it. Their sect is subpar, to begin with, and we can only threaten the commoners' families. We will just hope we won't have to depend on him, and that if we do, he will utilize the surprise effect well," the leader sighed. He also preferred to "recruit" someone…

*Cling* The dagger met with Ken's sword and failed to penetrate through it. The residual force behind the strike made the dagger slide upward, but it failed to penetrate through the thin armor that covered his torso. His body was also coated in Sword Qi which helped to negate the attack. "Young Master, are you all right?!" Max hurriedly pushed the body of the woman off Ken. "Healers! Healers!" Many people have gathered around them during this time. Some did not intervene because they did not know…

Nobody noticed Ken's actions during the ruckus, as everyone's attention was focused on the siblings' fight. The woman rose from the ground slowly, a faint blush decorating her cheeks and disclosing the fact that she was drunk. "You shitty sister, I can't believe you had slept with my fiancée, with your sister-in-law!" "Huh? That flower came to me first, so why are you blaming me? Blame yourself if your tool was so underwhelming that she craved a -hic- woman instead!" The man's lips quivered in…

'I can't channel my Qi!' Toby realized a moment before his strike connected. The dagger hit something solid instead of soft skin and failed to pierce through it, not leaving even a single graze on Ken's skin. "ASSASSIN!" Ken yelled loudly at the same time, and Max and Jake acted immediately. They struck the laying man with their swords without holding back, aware of his greater strength as a sixth-stage cultivator. Their goal was not to win, but to buy time for Ken to retreat and for others to help…

"Welcome back, Young Master Ken. There's a patient who said he wants you specifically to treat him and is not willing to accept the care of anybody else." "Oh, that's interesting. Did he specify why he wants my treatment?" "That's…" "Yes?" "Don't be angry, Young Master, I'm only passing his words. He said that he got injured to save your life, so the least you can do is to heal him yourself…" The healer said hesitantly. Ken was kind and patient during his visits to the Medical Hall, but he…
