Divinity

Desolate Aura

"So you're finally awake"

Just as Bia Xiao opened his eyes, Bia Ginze rose to his feet with a slit smile on his face, he could remember every detail of the battle they had yesterday and Bia Xiao had truly surprised him greatly. Though at the moment, he wasn't as strong as the true geniuses of the main clan, if given enough time, he would surely make a fine warrior.

"You have been waiting for me, how long was I out"

Bia Xiao began to look around him. He was standing in the middle of a large room which looked well prepared and clean, this was the first time out of a very long time he had been in a room like this. His family home was taken away five years ago with the passing of this mom and day.

Thus he had to build his own little hut with sticks and wood from the forest. Even the bed he slept on was made from wood and dried grass, but throughout all that, he was contented with what he had. Even if the world were to crash and the moon was to fall out of the sky, Bia Xiao would have no complaints.

"Well, you could say that. You've been out for a day and a half, how are you feeling"

Bia Ginze walker over to a table that was filled with fruits and many different types of food and meat. The moment Bia Xiao saw the table, it was as if his mind went blank and the only thing he could see was food and food.

"I.. I.. yes I am feeling ok I think"

Bia Xiao swallowed his spit with great difficulty. He forced his head to turn from the food as he checked the place out. For a person his age, he had learned to never be greedy and rash the hard way.

"It is fine. These prepaid for you"

Bia Ginze smiled after seeing the split-second greed and hunger on Bia Xiao's face. He could tell from his body that he hadn't eaten in a long time and even his blood count was low as well. Not to mention that his blood seemed to always be in a chaotic state whenever he fights.

All of these details never escaped his eyes ask he fought and observe Bia Xiao, this was to say that, if his body was in its full condition and his blood flow was settled, then even fighting a person up to the peak 8th level might be possible.

"I had wanted to ask you a few things, such as how you cultivated and so on. But I've changed my mind, on this road of cultivation, everyone would begin to have their own secrets"

Bia Ginze motioned with his hand for Bia Xiao to take a seat and eat. Bia Xiao looked at him as if he was looking at a stranger and in fact, was. This was his first time ever talking to Bia Ginze, he wasn't familiar with him at all, not to mention the nice gestures.

"Why I'm I here"

Bia Xiao looked at the food then turned his eyes away, this was his first time within the halls of the tribe and this was his first time speaking with this Bia Ginza. He didn't want to have any accidents happening to him upon just returning, if he could still stay by himself and carry-on as usual then that would be for the best.

The members of the Bia tribe had mistreated poorly over the past several years, they had mocked him a day out and day in, he even remembers when Bia Long and his rookies had beaten him up and no one said anything. They treated him like dirt like his life was worth nothing to them.

The faces of all those who had mistreated him resurfaced in his mind like gushing geyser. If there was a way for him to separate himself from the Bia tribe as a whole, he would do so without a second thought.

"Sigh. I know you carry some resentment towards the tribe, in fact, I don't really blame you either. This tribe and its people heartless and evil in the dark. They care for no one but themselves"

Bia Ginze took a seat as he took up fruit and bite into it. He no longer paid too much attention to Bia Xiao or cared if he ate the food or not. His mind wandered off to a faraway place as a desolate aura started to rise from the body.

This aura felt as if it had seen pain and had felt the loneliness of a lifetime. Bia Ginze's face was expressionless and his eyes calm. But the aura of his body could not be hidden. Bia Xiao sensed the desolation of Bia Ginze, he began to frown as he walked over towards the table.

"I see you've known what loneliness feels like"

Bia Xiao took a seat around the table as he took up a piece of meat and bit into it. The table was full of fruits, meat, buns, and many different food products. Bia Xiao started to eat without reservation, maybe it was due to the fact that even though he was out of sorts for a day and a half and wasn't dead yet or maybe he could relate to the feeling of Bia Ginze but he felt somewhat safe at this moment and calm.

It was as if he had found comfort in being able to share the same pain with someone that might understand him. This was human nature and for a young man such as himself, who had been alone for 5 years and suffering from the death of his parents before his very eyes, he welcomed nothing more than someone who he could trust and relate to.

"The path of a warrior is lonely, you must be willing to shoulder whatever comes your way and do what it takes to fulfill the wishes of your heart. Even if that wish would place hate upon your shoulders"

Bia Ginze pushed a plate of meat towards Bia Xiao, he was a middle-aged man who had live for more than 400 years now, he had no children and all he had been doing was carrying out the orders of the clan. The punishment hall had a zero-tolerance towards failure, 400 years ago he was task with watching the movements of Bia Anue by the lord of the hall.

He didn't know why the lord took a soft spot, maybe it was due to the fact that Bia Anue was a member of the tribe and or maybe it was due to so other matters that he was unaware of, but he was a task to give him a taste.

If the past, then he could return to the main clan and those of his generation may follow as well. But he had failed twice thus he had given his last tasks with the command medallion of the lord of the punishment hall.

If Bia Anue was now unable to grow their youths form the younger generation who was able to pass the outer disciple's test for entry into the main clan, then the main clan would turn it's back again them forever.

"I've shoulder pain and loneliness for 5 years now. In a sense, it's all I've come to know"

Bia Xiao reached out with a stuffed mouth, he grabbed a cup, pouring out some water before he started to drink in gulps. When the food entered his body, it was as if entering a bottomless pit, no matter how much he ate, he wasn't feeling stuffed at all.

While eating, he could be feeling his strength slowly returning. Matter how he tried to absorb spiritual energy, nothing seemed to work, only by devouring the spirit source of water can he slowly start to cultivate or restore his strength but it was very slow.

"Sigh. You've been through much, I've watched you for four years now but I allowed everything to happen. One must be able to keep his head above water and learn to depend on themselves if they are to amount to anything"

Bia Ginze stood up after finishing the fruit he was eating. He had said enough as it is and it was about time he heads out to take a look, the mysterious person was still hiding within the tribe and he had to find he some way or another.

"Don't leave the tribe for now. It's still not safe out there, there is a new set of robes a the bed, bathwater his over there in the barrel. You can clean your self up, you smell bad'

Bia Ginze walked towards the door, but before he walked through he turned and said.

"Oh take these, there blood billing pills. It will help you settle the poor blood circulation in your body. Take one pill at a time, slowly refine, and absorbed its energy. If you take more than one at the same time and is unable to manage its energy, you might die"

Bia Ginze took out a pill bottle and threw it towards Bia Xiao who caught it was a stunned expression.
