Omnipotent Husband System

Chapter 137: Bonds (1)

Hao Ren had texted the location of his teammates to Harvey Skye. He also told him what his plan was and Harvey Skye agreed to him, because he swore on his Martial Heart. If he was to betray Hao Ren, then his skills and cultivation will be destroyed.

The young man looked outside the window and then calmed down to meditate and perceive spiritual energy. It was the most crucial step on the path of cultivation and he was yet to make any progress about it. As he focused on the chant of the Titan Sutra, he found his body warming up and he was trying to pull all the colored particles over to his side.

...

In the Jade Capital, Han Lingshi was sitting inside the study and was reading the information she found about cultivators in a handbook she got from her Grand Father, Yue Chilong. She frowned and sighed as she leaned back in the chair. At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and she said, "Come in."

The door slid open and Hao Mei walked in. She wore a white dress and carried a sword on her waist. Han Lingshi raised her brow and asked, "Do you want to leave already?"

Hao Mei was not surprised and nodded. Han Lingshi smiled and asked, "You are worried that when he gets back, you will be overwhelmed by the emotions?"

The former nodded, she did not want to hide anything anymore. Her heart was light but she knew that confronting Hao Ren was akin to facing a heart demon and it was a scary experience because he held her guilty.

Han Lingshi nodded, she knew that it was very complicated and it was not her place to talk about this. She said, "If you leave like this, there is a chance that he might hold you even more guilty. Ma is sick, and Dad is also troubled with looking after her at this moment. If you also leave, then do you think he would be fine?"

Hao Mei sighed and looked at the ceiling for a few minutes, before she pulled the chair across from Han Lingshi and said, "I have no idea what to do. When we executed our plan to send me to the Spirit Shimmer Continent, Maa made the decision and we had to follow because she is the strongest among all of us. So much that when Dad protested, she challenged him to a duel, and beat him black and blue."

Han Lingshi was shocked, Hao Mei nodded with a faint smile and said, "Mom belonged to the Tang Sect, one of the most powerful sects in the Spirit Shimmer Continent. However, Tianjiao, meaning the Pride of the heavens, a warrior who could not be defeated by those of the same realm, had offended a senior from another sect that was even more power Tang Sect.

The people hunted down the Tang Sect disciples, and Maa was one of those who walked through the rivers of blood and flesh, that is why she always focused more on strength and less on love."

Han Lingshi nodded and said, "Well, I don't know what to say about that, but since we are talking about cultivation, how about you answer a few questions of mine."

Hao Mei nodded and said, "Go on."

Han Lingshi asked, "Whenever I meditate, I see flickering colors. Each one of them being very vibrant and warm. Why do they fly and invade my body?"

Hao Mei said, "Those are energy particles, it is mentioned in your cultivation sutra. These particles are spiritual energy, once they are able to enter your body, that is when you have stepped onto the first level of the cultivation."

Han Lingshi asked her a lot more questions and Hao Mei replied to her queries. The two forgot about the time, one was guiding while the other was learning. Suddenly, the welcome message echoed through the house, "Welcome, Master."

Hao Ren closed the door behind him and took off his shoes before he walked up to the couch and sat down with a huff. A few minutes later, he sensed someone appear beside him and opened his eyes. He was surprised to find a silver House Bot standing next to him. He sat up and asked, "Grace?"

The bot replied, "Yes, Boss."

Hao Ren was surprised and asked, "How did you come here?"

Grace replied, "Madam got me over from the office. Manager Lynn said that it would be nice for you to have an assistant and so after some discussion they designated me to be by your side and act as your personal assistant." Discover hidden tales at m,v l'e-NovelBin.net

Hao Ren nodded and remarked, "That's very thoughtful of them."

The bot nodded stiffly, and Hao Ren asked Grace where Han Lingshi was, and the bot replied. Hao Ren said, "You can go back to stand-by mode, Grace. I will call you if I need your help."

The bot nodded once more before she moved back to stand inside the kitchen. Hao Ren took off his coat and walked up to the study, he mumbled, "Xiao Mei, I did not betray you."

In his ear piece, Xiao Mei was calling him disloyal and petty for getting a House Bot. The young man sighed and said, "Alright, you dramatic AI, go and add Grace into one of your extensions. I am not used to her speech pattern at all. However, you cannot alter her programs, and not make her do other things even in her free time. Understood?"

Xiao Mei replied, "Yes, I knew you loved me."

Hao Ren rolled his eyes thinking it was the fabled rebelling teenager mode of the AI. He knocked on the door and said, "Lingshi."

The lady said, "Come in, Ren."

The young man pushed open the door and asked, "What made you bring Grace over? Lynn and the rest are just a bit too parano..."

He stopped in his tracks when he saw the second figure sitting in the study room. Han Lingshi said, "She is teaching me. Did you meet Ma?"

Hao Ren looked at her, and took a deep breath before he turned around and walked away. Hao Mei was worried and Han Lingshi said, "I consoled him when that was needed but now, he needs to see what's at stake. The DEBH attacked him and parents once, so if he wishes to get stronger, he would need strength to survive the attacks of those abnormal Inhumans."

Hao Mei sighed and said, "While I understand what you are trying to say, but he cannot cultivate, his meridians were blocked when he was born."

Han Lingshi was shocked but then she replied, "How could that be, we both were cultivating together that day."

Hao Mei was shocked, she stood up from the chair and asked, "What do you mean?"

Han Lingshi began to tell her about the various things that Hao Ren told her, about the old man he met and all the things he could pull off. None of the people knew till now that Hao Ren was already capable of killing and torturing people. Hao Mei was really shocked she said, "We have to tell my parents about it."

Hao Ren took a shower inside his bathroom before he changed into casual clothes. He sighed as he looked into his reflection and turned around to go and meet his parents. He was at the door of their room. He knocked gently and Hao Xinyuan said, "Come in."

The young man pushed the half open door and went inside. He spotted Hao Xinyuan sitting on bedside holding Tang Zen's hand. Hao Ren noticed that his ballistic mother was laying there with a pale face. He looked at the old couple and asked, "Old Boy Hao, what the hell did you do for Empress Dowager to end up like this?"

Hao Xinyuan sighed and said, "Her heart meridian has ruptured. The spirit energy is leaking through and ravaging her body."

Hao Ren shook his head and said, "So you decided to use your energy to save her. Are you a fool? How long will you do this for?"

Hao Xinyuan did not look away from Tang Zen's face and said, "Till my last breath."

Hao Ren was speechless and said, "Well, keep holding her hand then."

The room was well lit and he climbed up on the bed. The old man was surprised and Hao Ren grabbed on the void. He took out a box of golden needles and his spirit rejuvenation potion bottles too.

He prepared everything and just when he was about to proceed, Han Lingshi and Hao Mei came inside the room. The two were surprised when they saw Hao Ren sitting this close to Tang Zen. The young man said, "Old Boy Han, tell your daughter to come and stand across me. I will need her help in a few things."

Hao Mei moved even before her father could say anything. She stood before Hao Ren and asked, "Why didn't you tell us that you could cultivate?"

Her question caused the old man to look up in shock. Hao Ren gazed at Hao Mei as if she was a fool and said, "Did I know that my family is a bunch of cultivators? Did you ask me if I was doing okay? Before you ask me questions look at yourself. Now, if you are done with this interrogation, sterilize the needles for me, and stand in the corner."

He was angry when the person who faked her death was accusing him of being secretive. What else could he do? He did not know Han Lingshi will change his life. With that, he began to calm down and treat his mother.
