The Growth of a Titan-Chapter 449- A Parasite
Chapter 449: Chapter 449- A Parasite
As Sol was in his thoughts, he suddenly received a message via his disciple token. After he flipped over his hand and took it out, he read the message inside.
Sol thought for a bit before responding to the message and then put away the disciple token.
"That’s why I was wary of Dae-hyun, but now you’re telling me he’s not the Young Master of Jeagal Clan. If he isn’t then who the hell is he?"
Woo-seong said as he looked over at Ushi.
"We only figured out Wei-sun’s identity thanks to the Dark Fairy’s efforts, well unintentional efforts. She got close to Wei-sun to get to Dae-hyun, and because of this Wei-sun started getting suspicious of her. He started digging into her identity, but he would have never imagined that he would stumble upon the name Dark Fairy. At the same time Wei-sun found out her identity, she found out his identity as well. From then on Wei-sun held a grudge against the Dark Fairy since she reported her findings to her Sect, while he didn’t dare to at first in fear of the Emei Sect’s ever-growing influence.
"It took the Jeagal Clan’s Patriarch coming in person to demand the Emei Sect not revealing this secret or try selling it to anyone. The Emei Sect agreed, for a price. As of now, only the upper echelons of the Emei Sect, and our Miura Clan can access this information. Even for me, I wouldn’t have known this detail if I had not begged my father to give me unrestricted access to our Miura Clan’s information network before coming to Jianghu."
"So that’s why Wei-sun hates the Dark Fairy."
"And why he targeted Brother Sol, because of Brother Mar-Dule’s relationship with her."
Cheong-san said and Cheong-su added right after.
"But doesn’t this also mean Wei-sun knows about your relationship with the Dark Fairy?"
Yoon-jae suddenly said as he looked at Mar-Dule.
Mar-Dule had already eaten the piece of Life Essence fruit and was licking his fingers. He frowned and then said.
"That’s why I thought that it was one of his spies who was spying on me back then... but turns out it was just a perverted bastard."
Mar-Dule suddenly turned to glare at Ushi. Ushi stiffened and forced a smile, but Mar-Dule merely snorted and added.
"Given his hatred, he would be constantly investigating her whereabouts, so it was inevitable he found out. But since the news hasn’t spread yet, I guess he’s not revealing it for some reason."
Mar-Dule folded his arms with the frown still on his face. After he found out Wei-sun targeted Sol because of his relationship with Hua-yin he had been dealing with this fact for the past month. Since then, he had contacted his father and told him about the situation.
After they discussed it, they decided to come clean to the Emei Sect and propose marriage. It had been a few weeks since then, but the Emei Sect still hasn’t responded to their proposal.
However, given that Hua-yin wasn’t forbidden from meeting him, perhaps the situation was looking favorably? He didn’t really know.
The group continued to discuss a few more matters.
Sol had taken out another batch of wine jars during this moment. This batch was of an even lower quality, the brew didn’t contain his Life Essence fruits and mostly consisted of low-grade medicinal plants with a few high-grade ones thrown in there.
Sol also brewed wine that didn’t just contain Wood Aether Energy. There was wine with Fire Aether Energy inside that left a burning sensation in one’s stomach, while there was Water Aether Energy wine brew that had an opposite cooling effect.
Of course, while drinking these, especially the Fire wine brew, they had to make sure to refine all the Fire Element inside each mouthful, so it doesn’t conflict with their Internal Aether Energy. Due to this, Yoon-jae was the one mostly drinking the Fire wine brew.
Sol took a swig from his wine gourd as he chatted with everyone. He only handed out these wine jars, he didn’t drink any as he wanted to keep his Internal Aether Energy pure. He felt his Internal Wood Aether Energy would reject anything that wasn’t pure Wood Aether Energy between heaven and earth.
The wine he had in his gourd was actually the Immortal Wine he brewed using the Life Essence fruits produced by his Enigma’s energy, as well as the Divine Wine made from the Holy Fruits created using his Holy Energy.
He had separated the space inside the gourd so he could drink them individually. As for how he hid the Worldly Laws fluctuations from the outside world, there was a reason why the wine gourd was tied to his bracelet using his hair.
Sol figured out that if he used his hair as a medium, he could apply the bracelet’s strong sealing ability through his hair onto the wine gourd. However, despite sounding easy, he had a hard time accomplishing this as he had to carve a few hundred supplementary runes onto his hair and the wine gourd. It took all of his Rune Inscription skills to get it right.
He also had to account for a situation where his hair snapped, so he carved a few Fire Runes that would ignite and evaporate all the wine inside the gourd if it lost the bracelet’s sealing ability.
As laughter echoed out in the room due to a slightly drunk Mar-Dule acting up, Sol suddenly turned to look at the door to his room. He excused himself and headed for it. When he opened the door, Cian was seen with his hand raised about to knock.
"Brother Sol."
Cian was slightly surprised by the door opening so suddenly.
Sol’s slightly flushed face scrunched up into a frown.
"What took you so long?"
The message he received was from Cian. He had asked if he could meet him and Sol agreed while telling him where his room was, but that was nearly two hours ago.
Cian smiled apologetically and said.
"I apologize, Brother Sol. I wasn’t able to come sooner because I was being accompanied by... a parasite."
Sol didn’t ask for clarification on that, instead, he realized something and looked at Cian closely.
"Why has it weakened?"
Sol muttered in annoyance before he lifted his hand and tapped Cian’s forehead. freewebnøvel.coɱ
