CHAPTER 12: GRANDPA HAS RETURNED PART 2
When Adrian heard it, he knew something had happened, for the grandmother's husband to return so soon. That was why perhaps those outside were with a fierce look, Adrián did not know it.
He sat to the side, while inside he could hear how the grandmother sang for her husband, Adrián had to admit that his singing was beautiful, he could even feel relaxed.
When the singing ended a voice came from the house.
"Come in slaves" – It was the grandmother who called them, when the two entered.
Adrian could feel a large amount of Qi streams in the air.
When he returned his gaze, he could see an old man sitting down, the old man had white hair and beard, plus a pleasant smile. From what Adrian could feel, the old man was much stronger than the couple he found at Apothecary Gu.
"The sixth level of Qi condensation" – That was what Adrian thought, there was no other way to say it, the difference between the two was too great. If Adrian could absorb it, he could at least fill 2 more starts.
When they both sat down in front of Grandpa, he looked at Adrian with a serious look, perhaps for the others, they saw Adrian as a mere slave, but Grandpa could feel small streams of spiritual Qi coming from Adrian.
"Honey and Grandson Ma, leave us alone for a moment" – The old man's voice was kind, they both backed away and left the house.
The old woman began to talk to the men outside, while Young Ma stood next to an acquaintance.
Adrian knew something was wrong, a strong sense of danger came from the old man's aura, Adrian was prepared for any move, even if it put his life at risk. He gripped his dagger tightly.
The old man just gave a smile, he could see that Adrian was fierce, and very cautious, as if he had been raised by wild wolves.
"When my wife told me about you, I thought you would only be a child, but it seems that you are also a cultivator, I can't know what cultivation you have, but I can see traces of Qi all over your body, if you want to hide your strength, you better not let anything loose" – The old man spoke, as if he was advising Adrian.
Adrian just nodded, he knew he had to be much more careful, and that stronger people could see any mistakes he had made.
Seeing such a reaction, the old man didn't say anything, it seemed that Adrian wasn't very talkative.
"You may not have known it, but that necklace is only there to control mortals, once you reach the first level of Qi condensation, you can easily break it, I don't know if you knew, or decided to stay here, whatever the reason, if you like you can stay in my house, but you'd better contribute, My wife should have already explained to you how it was"
Adrian was a little thoughtful, he felt that he could break the necklace whenever he wanted, although today his thoughts were confirmed, but at the same time, he had nowhere to go, besides, that the grandmother had saved him, if it were not for the pill he received, he would have died from the accumulation of bruises all over his body.
So he had decided to stay in this place, so that he could get to know the entire city, and he also knew that if he wanted to be stronger, he had to get purifying pills, so that the bruises wouldn't affect his cultivation path.
The bruises were rare, they appeared anywhere on the body, I could even feel them in her organs, I didn't know what would happen if I covered myself with them, and I didn't want to experience it either.
They were formed in any cultivator, it was enough to absorb the energy of the environment for it to have an effect, it was as if something was contaminated.
After being thoughtful for a while, Adrian wanted to say something, but the old man interrupted him.
"We will leave in two days for the forbidden city, this time you will accompany us and take care of your elder brother Ma."
Adrián nodded, he knew that this was one of the tasks he had to do if he wanted to stay in this house.
After noticing that Adrian wasn't going to talk much, she let him go. Then a party started, the men outside came in and the grandmother prepared a lot of food.
