Shen Haoran was a small boy from the youngest generation.
He attended Shen Liqian's cultivation sessions along with Shen Kexin, whom he considered his rival.
The reason?
She called Chief Liqian "big brother" which made him jealous.
He declared Shen Kexin his rival in front of his entire class and Shen Liqian.
"I will reach the First Realm of Qi Attunement before everyone else and you, Kexin!
"I will become Chief Liqian's little brother!"
He then cupped his hands to the Clan Chief and got straight to cultivation.
It was his first show of courage and conviction.
Yet, his baby cheeks and ears were so red that Shen Liqian chuckled and held himself back from pulling at them.
"That's a promise, Xiao Haoran."
After fulfilling that promise, Shen Haoran sprinted across the village straight to Shen Kexin's house.
He knocked on the door with a little too much enthusiasm.
Shen Kexin pulled the door ajar and peeked outside.
