Chapter 146 New World

“Yawn!”

A young man with black hair slowly opened his eyes. His black pupil stared at the ceiling made out of woods. He was wearing a black t-shirt and black pants.

His skin could feel something hard beneath him. He slowly raised his body and looked around.

“Where the hell am I?”

Suddenly, the memories of the past events reappeared in his mind. As soon as he remembered those memories, he started sweating. He couldn’t help but feel extremely gloomy.

‘What did he mean by my parents sacrificing the whole race to keep me alive? What do these genes represent? And, why did he call me Heir of Creation?’

Brian’s mind was filled with questions but he calmed down and thought to himself.

‘I can’t find the answer right now. The only thing I can do is get stronger in this world. But where am I?’

Brian looked around and saw the room was made out of wood. There was a small pod on the ground. He didn’t see anything more inside the room except for the wooden bed he was in.

Creek!

Slowly, the door opened and Brian’s eyes shifted at the door. A small girl walked inside and when she saw Brian, she instantly left.

“Hey, wait!” Brian tried to call her but she had already left.

“Mother, Father, that big brother is awake.”

Brian could clearly hear her voice so he did not move but instead analyzed his own body. For some reason, he was feeling extremely different.

“You are finally awake. If I hadn’t checked your body, I would’ve assumed that you were injured.” A man’s voice rang as a tall middle-aged man entered the room.

He had a tall height and a well-built body. He had brown skin and black hair with a small cut under his eyes.

“Thank you for keeping me inside your house!” Brian bowed and politely thanked them.

“Ehh! You don’t have to do that. By the way, what happened to you? You didn’t have any injuries but you were unconscious for three days.” A woman’s voice rang as the middle-aged female walked in.

She was wearing a pink frock and a red dress on her upper body. She was slightly shorter than the man. Her white hair was almost reaching her waist. She had bigger eyes than her husband.

“I am sorry. I was caught up in a strange scene and must have ended up somewhere else unconscious. By the way, where is this?” Brian asked.

The couple looked at each other. But before they could speak, the little girl ran toward his bed and extended her arms. With a sweet smile on her face, she spoke.

“Big Brother, we are in my house.”

Hearing her words, Brian couldn’t help but chuckle. The couple felt a bit embarrassed and her mother pulled her back.

“Sorry about the little girl. She is a bit too excited about everything and doesn’t understand much.” The man moved toward him and apologized.

Brian shook his head and spoke “Kids should always be curious. And besides, she kinda reminds me of my daughter.”

Brian wasn’t lying. The little girl had white hair just like her mother which seemed closer to Ely’s hair.

“Young Man, did you suffer brain damage? You don’t even look eighteen years old. How can you have a daughter?” The man stared at him with a strange gaze and spoke.

“Wait, what do you mean?” Brian suddenly panicked. He was feeling that his body didn’t feel the same way it used to feel. But now, it seemed to be coming true.

“Calm down! It seems like whatever happened to you must have made your memories jumbled. How about we introduce ourselves and take it easy? My name is Chu Lan.” The man introduced himself.

“Oh! My name is Brian Jackson. Nice to meet you!” Brian introduced himself after getting his name.

“Wow! Your name is quite weird.” Chu Lan responded with his name.

“My name is Chu Meng. Our daughter’s name is Chu Ling.” The woman came forward and squeezed her husband’s waist as she introduced herself.

“Can you tell me what is the last thing that you remember? Or, do you have something missing in your memories?” Chu Lan asked.

“I do feel like I am missing a lot of things. The last thing that I remember is being forced into a strange mist. Then, the next moment I entered something strange made out of the purple circle and then ended up here.” Brian answered.

Chu couple looked at each other with a surprised gaze. They suspiciously looked at him and asked “So, where were you before?”

“In my hometown, Zone B.” Brian tried to manipulate the information as much as he could.

“Zone B? We haven’t heard of such a place. It means you truly entered a spatial portal by mistake and ended up here. But surprisingly, you don’t have a single trace of spiritual energy inside your body.”

“Didn’t you awaken your martial soul yet? Did you fail to awaken it? But that shouldn’t be the case, right? After all, everyone has a martial soul.” Chu Lan suspiciously looked at him and asked very questions.

“I did hear about it once or twice but I haven’t got my chance. I don’t even know how to awaken it. I don’t even know whether I have it or not.” Brian responded with confusion.

“What are you talking about? After you reach ten, you can awaken it on your own. Some geniuses even awaken at the early age of six. Don’t tell me you don’t have a martial soul?” Chu Lan looked at him with a trace of pity in his eyes.

“That shouldn’t be the case. If everyone has the martial soul, I should be able to awaken it. Can you give me some tips?” Brian asked.

“Ehh! Are there any tips that I can give you?” Chu Lan asked him with confusion in his eyes. He has never encountered such a strange situation.

Chu Meng took a step forward and sat on the bed. She smiled and said.

“Close your eyes and focus your mind on your forehead. If you focus for a long time, you will feel strange energy rising from you if you have a martial soul.”

Brian nodded his head and closed his eyes. He focused his concentration on the forehead. A few seconds passed, and the air around them started turning hotter. The red aura covered his body.

“Lan, take Ling outside!” Chu Meng turned her head at her husband and shouted. She quickly backed away as her eyes widened.

At this moment, a small fire was above Brian’s head. It was small but its heat was burning the wood. Suddenly, Brian’s nose twitched and he quickly opened his eyes.

He found the flames spreading out around him. The small fireball on his head disappeared.

“Flowing Water Palm”

Chu Meng rushed toward the wood, strange energy condensed at her palm. It was peaceful and silent but when it transformed into water and came out of her palm, it moved so fast that it blasted Brian.

“Ahh! Brian, are you alright?” Chu Meng realized Brian falling to the ground and quickly approached him. The water blasted a small part of the wood and managed to extinguish the flames. She quickly pulled him out and rushed out of the room.

“Ha! That was dangerous. What kind of martial soul was that?” Chu Meng put him on the couch as she took a deep breath. This room was quite big. There were tables, couches, and small pots with flowers.

Chu Lan clenched his fist and spoke “It wasn’t a normal one.”

Gulp!

“It is clear that he has a martial soul but why didn’t he awaken it till now?” Chu Meng asked with confusion.

“I don’t know but he is….” Chu Lan walked in front of him and stared at Brian.

“Clearly too weak!”

“Anyway, he seems to be from a small village on the outskirt. After he wakes up, let’s ask him what he plans to do next.” Chu Meng spoke as she sighed and went to her daughter.

Her daughter hadn’t passed out but she seems to be clinging to her father’s arms, afraid of that commotion.

“I will go out and buy a Martial Soul Testing Crystal. Let’s test his martial soul. From the looks of it, that martial soul seemed truly strong.” Chu Lan said after his arms were freed. He turned around wearing a black coat as he left the house.

“Mother, what happened to Big Brother?” Chu Ling calmed down in her mother’s embrace and asked.

“Big Brothers is feeling weak right now. Will you come with me and help me prepare dinner?” Chu Meng smiled at her child and asked.

“Of course!” Chu Ling smiled and got off her mother’s embrace as she proudly patted her small chest.

Chu Meng smiled and walked up to Brian. She found that his body had dried from that water. She breathed a sigh of relief and took her to the kitchen. As for Brian, he didn’t seem to be in the condition to wake up anytime soon.
