The Way of the Sword (BL)

Chapter 97: His parents' figure

Zemin Yan took a deep breath at this information, he who considered himself the type of pig that would have difficulty raising the cultivation because of his sealed bloodline, but in fact, he's a super genius? 

Miss Song wanted to pinch her little brother's pink cheeks, seeing the deer eyes flicker in confusion at the information he received. Zemin Yan was only stunned for a short time, it was not difficult to associate the awakening of his soul power with the contract between him and Sying.

"Do you have any pictures or paintings of father and mother?" Asked Zemin Yan a little anxiously, after all, he could not remember clearly the face of his relatives, besides, his older sister had the face with some illusion, which didn't allow him to see the true face of her.

"I have a vivid image, but it's from years ago when they were younger and you weren't even born. I don't know if they will look the same, you can already imagine that our parents love to be pigs and play joking around, "said Miss Song, omitting the fact that this would only be possible if her parents were alive and healthy, but as it had been a few years since they'd been in the news and given the circumstances of their escape Well, it's not very high their chance of being safe or alive!

But she couldn't say that to her little brother!

"Alright, even if it's an old image I still want to see!" Asked Zemin Yan a little excited. This would be his first time seeing the image of his parents, his little heart pounding and his cheeks flushed with excitement. 

"Fine, I'll show you and give you this vivid image," said Miss Song with a sigh, but pulled out a small plate with deep traces of complex arrays from her space ring. Injecting its power from the soul energy to the matrix represented several stars and some runes of the order class. 

The image that appeared seemed very vivid, as if it were a recording of a scene, there was a beautiful woman with snow-white hair and blue eyes like the most precious stone in the world, the woman's lips looked like two Chinese rose petals, her eyes were the shape of peach petals, her lashes were with and her eyebrows arched giving a clever and authoritative look to the pretty woman's face. She wore a martial artist's outfit with baggy pants and baggy top with sleeves floating in the air. 

This woman's white hair was tied with a green jasmine harp, the whole set gave this woman a heroic and loving aura, her round chin and small nose were soft and her rosy cheeks were passionate. The hand on the sword was steady and the sharp look left no doubt about the woman's martial power.

The man on his right was not as extraordinary as the woman, his brown hair was light and his eyes were honey brown, smooth and clear, but his face was just ordinary, his lips were full and broad and his nose was a little big, but his firm chin and high cheekbones made the whole set harmonious, but it was not enough to be called beautiful. His broad shoulders and long legs gave a sense of security and strength, his two powerful arms were crossed, and the martial artists' clothes he wore seemed to sway in the wind as if winds and storms could not be his opponents. His gaze was completely confident, even with his sword still in its scabbard, the whole aura of this man seemed to say that he was someone beyond heaven.

Zemin Yan's eyes reddened, but he didn't cry, he stared stunned at the living image in his hands, sometimes the man and the woman smiled at each other, sometimes the two seemed to talk and sometimes seemed to be pointing at somewhere.

"The mother is very pretty and the father seems to be very strong" Zemin Yan murmured a little lost in his thoughts, his fingers very shyly touched the image, but of course the figures in the image felt nothing.

"This is a momentary recording item, recording exactly at a certain time. There are some items that can record hours of fighting and there are others that are recording for almost an eternity, such as sect watch items, "explained Miss Song watching her little brother's red eyes. 

Zemin Yan did not respond, and after a few minutes the image disappeared as Miss Song's soul energy boost was not too long. Zemin Yan felt a sense of deep loss like any child this boy wanted to know and be with his parents. It was a little difficult to suppress this emptiness that settled in his heart.

"You can have it. Just inject some of your soul power into the plate and the image will reappear, "explained Miss Song as she saw Zemin Yan's bleak gaze, whose small fingers were white from holding the iron plate too tightly.

"I don't know how to control the energy of my soul or the sacred energy. And not about any energy, "said Zemin Yan in a very low voice. It was not even 15 days since he embarked on the cultivation journey with the Heavenly Sword Sect and he had no time/fear to train this energy and he had no one to ask for instruction.

Zemin Yan just couldn't just take a jade disc and learn how to use his energy, how would he explain it in the future? Should he hide this ability from everyone? And if they had very powerful people to see through his disguise, wouldn't he be in danger? So Zemin Yan thought that it would be better to wait until in the sect he was instructed by some teacher or teacher, so he could justify himself in the future.

"Fine, I'll teach you a little. In our sect there must be some teacher who will be specialized in this area, as so many talents with energy have sprung up, "said Miss Song affectionately stroking Zemin Yan's soft hair. 

It was not very difficult to control the soul energy, the biggest problem was knowing how much to spend per day, how many times one could use soul energy. The amount was very important as it could endanger the user's life. It was no joke to have your soul energy drained, soul wounds could occur and cause weakness throughout the body, which leaves the individual subject to attacks from the enemy.

As for the other energies for control, there was a very serious problem, since the other energies controlled other elements, so a thorough study of various elements would be necessary for better control and energy expenditure. Sacred energy alone was not difficult to control, but wanting to use it as a conductor to control the other surrounding elements would be rather laborious as it requires a systematic study of the other elements.
