Multi-Gene

David’s eyes were pinned on the other young master, the one with the two huge axe behind him.

The young man’s expression were indifferent as though he didn’t care about what was happening and wished to leave the place as soon as possible.

“But his strength… ” David’s brows knotted together. It was the first time this was happening to him. The first time he couldn’t fully read through someone’s strength, and could only read the surface strength of someone and that person happened to to be in the same generation as he was.

He couldn’t see through the young eldest young masters strength in the slightest, only some hints of it. He was aloof as the clouds, but with the waves of savagery he was struggling to pin down with the hall revealed to David that his strength was not to be looked down on.

The young man was surely not simple.

The young eldest master’s eyes was still on David, not bothering to look away. David’s gaze was also fixated on him, but he casually withdrew his gaze and then glanced at the helpers of the young lady.

Sweeping his gaze at the group of five, David had roughly measured through their strength and couldn’t help but admit that they were strong. He couldn’t imagine how they had all reached the Hexa-gene level at such a young age.

Even with all the resources and experience he had gained, David had just reached the Penta-gene stage, but this guys Phasers level were clearly above his.

David sighed softly. It appears the institute wasn’t the best out there. His thoughts were interrupted when a soft but commanding tone resounded within the hall.

“You are all here.”

Instantly, the entire hall went quiet. And they all gazed at the man seated before the throne with looks of awe and respect in their faces as everyone bowed their heads respectively.

“We greet the great Qilin. May you live long.” Their voices resounded within the hall, seemingly wanting to shake it.

David blinked his eyes curiously glancing at the young man seated on the large throne.

The man wasn’t old nor middle aged as David had expected. He appeared very young. His face was full of youth and vitality as though he had just reached his twenties not quite long.

The young man was in putting on a larfe white and expensive beast fur on his body as a coat, his thick eyelashes very conspicuous. 

He raised his hands and the others rose their head respectively. “The ancient battle ground is filled with treasures, but it’s also filled with an equal amount of danger. You all are my sons and daughter but I won’t be there to protect you all forever, which is why I made up my mind to allow you my cubs to participate in the event.”

Although he seem to be speaking warmly, David frowned as he couldn’t find a single hint of warmth in the man’s eyes.

“Yes Father, we understand. We won’t disappoint you.” Young master Alan stepped forwards and pledged.

A snort rang out as the Princess announced her dissatisfaction. “Opportunistic bastard.”

“The time is near, the other eight families are on their way to the Ancient Ruin, don’t cause any trouble with them outside the Battle Field. You all can leave now.”

“Yes, Great Qilin.” they all bowed and as they were about to leave. They suddenly heard the voice speak once more.

“But you, stay.” Young master’s Alan’s eyes seem to light up as his father was pinging towards his direction.

He was about to move forwards, when he realise, his father was referring to David. He couldn’t help but be confused.

David was likewise also confused. But he wasn’t scared the man had figured out something about him. With his strength, barely anyone could see through him and that was including the man seated on the throne.

Although reluctant, young master Alan and the others left the hall, including the elders, leaving only David and the great Qilin alone within the hall and as the hall closed, the young man gently stood up from his tall and large seat.

He appeared slightly huge in build and as he started to step down form the steps to his throne, the entire throne seem to tremble, but also seem to be held by an invincible force.

It was as though it was about to be destroyed, but was also been protected, showcasing the incredibly control of strength the Head of the Qilin Family had.

David was expressionless as the man finally stepped down, and was now just a few inches from him.

The family head tilted his head gazing at David intently with utmost focus.

After circling around him for a round, the man retreated a few step backwards. 

With a thoughtful expression, he asked. “Who are you? And what are you doing in my palace?”

David frowned inside. He didn’t expect this old man to be so suspicious. But in any case, even after personally checking up close, the man had been unable to figure out anything. 

“My name is David and I’ve been invited by young master Alan to help him.” David replied casually. 

The young family head remained silent before opening his mouth and say. “While that may be true, I’m not asking for your cover up intention, I want to hear your real intention.”

David couldn’t help but be impressed, indeed this man has lived long enough to be this wise. “I apologise to you, my master, Mr White was one of the few people sent to investigate the battle ground when it had just recently opened. But since he didn’t make it back, I want to personally check my self if he could still be saved.” David replied sincerely. 

The man seem to have noticed the sincerity in David’s tone. And for the first time, his face changed from his indifference and a slight smile appeared on his face as he asked. “White was one of the scouts? I didn’t know that.”

David’s eyes immediately narrowed as he felt there swmw to be some so”Mad White is very talented, but you are even stronger than he was. He surely has gained a great disciple.”

“I thank you for you praise.” David said with a slight bow. 

“Hmm, you can go now.” The man waves his hands for David to leave.

David nodded his head and turned around, walking towards the large door. 

David was just a few meters from the door when the Family head’s voice resounded. 

“One thing though, do you want to know what gave you up?” The man had an amused expression jn his face as he asked. 𝑵𝐎𝑣𝗲𝓁𝑛𝗲xt.𝑐𝑜𝓂

David’s eyes twitched but he had a confused expression on his face. “I don’t understand what you are talking about.”

“Oh, you do.” The family head smiled softly as he began to walk towards David. 

Seeing that he had been made, David’s confused expression changed to one of curiosity. 

“What gave me up?” he asked. 

“Respect. You speak to me as though we are of equal strength. Even my elders of council don’t dare not put Qilin in my name.” The man chuckled. 

David frowned. “Although I didn’t say the word great Qilin, I don’t think I spoke to you like we were equals.”

“Oh, it’s the subconscious, while you can hide most things, you can’t hide your subconscious behavior.” The man then raised his hands and stretching out his index finger.

A layer of what seem to be a slightly visible barrier appeared on his finger. But they weren’t barrier, it was the atmosphere, trembling at his finger tip. 

An inexplicable immeasurable force was forcibly been transits to the wind and wvwne with its strength, it moved so slowly, it formed ripples and blazing wind around its bodt like a meteor. 

If one were to compere this scene, it was comparable to the scene of a meteor ripping through the skies with its blazing tail. But this time, it wasn’t a meteor producing this effect, but a finger instead. One could only imagine the amount of force the finger was holding. It was as though it could rip the world apart if it wanted to. 

The finger was very slow, and to an ordinary person, it was as though an elderly person was trying to tap the body of a young man. 

David’s expression seen to change but his his eyes remaines indifferent as he made noove to avoid the finger. 

The man stared at David amused as his finger continued, but David still didn’t make any move, it was as though he couldn’t sense the threat from the moving hand. 

Abruptly, the speed to the finger increased as they changed direction, speed towards David head unexpectedly. 

BOOOOOOOOM!!! 

A muffled booming sound echoed out as David slapped the finger aside. 

His body trembled imperceptibly and he retreates ten paces backwards, cracking the hard marbles in the ground in the process. 

David raised his head and his expression turned vicious. “You could have killed me if I wasn’t this strong!”

“Well, luckily you are strong.” The man chuckled softly. But the eyes he was using to gaze at David had changed, he no longer dared to look down on David, while he hadn’t used his full strength, for someone of the younger generatin to be able to withstand 50 percent of his strength, they deserved his respect. 

He had only tested David based on a whim, if he wasn’t strong, he would have died, exploding into a meat paste, but David had been able to withstand the attack, luckily. 

“Hmph!” David snorted coldly. The sleeves of his clothing had exploded into ahses due to the old man’s attack. “What’s with old people wanting to touch my forehead?”

David had felt the slight killing intent within the old man’s action, while it had only appeared for a split second, David was an incredibly cautious and sensitive person therefore, he had reacted swiftly. This immediately made him cautious of the old man. 

“What do you know about my Master’s whereabout?” David asked the one question that had been bothering him. 

The family head shrugged. “I didn’t say I know anything.”

David squinted his eyes. “What do you want? Just know this, although I’d like to see Mad White well and okay, we aren’t so close that I’d risk everything for him.”

It was the the old man’s time to smile. ” I knew right away you’re a very smart person.”

“My daughter, protect her at all cost.” His expression changed as he said this. 

David frowned. “I already promised Alan I would protect him, how do you expect me to divide myswlf to protect the two of them.”

The old man waves his hands. “He’s dispensible, but my Daughter. Mak sure no harm comes to her.”

David glanced at the old man. He just couldn’t figure out the thoughts of old people. The Princess was the least talented of all the family, but with hard work she had risen to ranks. 

And while she wasn’t that powerful, she had gathered enough resources and fame for her self. But sadly she still wasn’t good enough to inherit the Qilin throne. 

Which was why he was confused as to the old man’s request. Suddenly, David’s eyes opened wide. “Did she naturally Inherit the bloodline?”

The old man remained silent but he didn’t say anything to refute or acknowledge his words. 

David’s eyes widened in disbelief. “T-thats impossible. While you have reached the level that you have created your own race, it’s impossible to pass the bloodline to your own descendants. The chances are like, 0.00001 percent of happening, so it mostly impossible.”

“I know right? She’s special.”

“Does she know about it?” David asked while he gazed at the old man like some lucky bastard. 

“No, no one knows about it, except for me, and now you.” David nodded his head. 

“Alright, I will accept your condition. I protect your daughter and In return you tell me the location of my Master.”

“Deal” The old man smiled. 

“But how are you so sure I wouldn’t betray you?”

“Well, I’ve decided to kill you if you didn’t ask that question in the 10 seconds frame I gave you. Luckily you have three left “

rt of hidden message in those words, but he couldn’t decipher it.
