Ruler Of Order And Chaos

Chapter 2

Just like that, Yang Lei had become a cultivation maniac. He had poured all his time into training and cultivating. His only friends were the second young masters, Gu Tianji of the Gu Clan and Li Kuang of the Li Clan.

Even in school, he would cultivate madly. The teachers would think that he was sleeping. But the truth was that he was actually cultivating!

His teachers didn"t care though. Although they were normal humans and knew nothing about cultivation, the Yang Clan"s prestige and might was something that even the homeless on the street were aware of.

It didn"t matter though. Yang Lei had perfect grades even if he was "sleeping" during the teacher"s lectures. He would listen carefully even while he was cultivating. Why?

The answer was Starlight University! It was the dream university for young cultivators like him! It was no ordinary university! Only cultivators could enroll, and only talented ones at that.

Even if his father were to use his might and power as the Yang Clan Lord, Yang Lei wouldn"t be accepted. In fact, his entire clan might even be slaughtered in the middle of the night!

[System Initialization complete!] The panel flashed and interrupted his peaceful memories and thoughts. It quickly disappeared and with it, came the darkness…

——————————————————————————————————————————

Clan Lord Yang was pacing around his grand residence. He had just returned from visiting his son in the hospital. His heart ached painfully when he thought of his son, confined to the bed until death. Tears began to stream down his cheeks as he recalled all the pressure and expectations that he had knowingly placed back then on Yang Lei"s young shoulders.

The Clan Lord was a great father. Although he expected too much from his sons, his love was genuine and he would do his best to raise them to be upright, moral, and lawful men.

"Clan Lord!" A subordinate ran into the hall and collapsed on the floor from exhaustion.

"What"s the matter?" Yang Feilong furrowed his brows. What was so important that this person could interrupt his precious memories of his child? Feeling annoyed, he did something that he normally wouldn"t do: He unleashed his cultivation and focused it on the man before him.

"I-It"s the Young Master," The subordinate gasped under the Clan Lord"s powerful pressure.

"What!?!" Yang Feilong instantly retracted his aura. He lifted up the man by his collar.

"T-The Young Master! H-He woke up!" The man was still reeling from the power and the sudden movements of the Clan Lord.

"Lei"er woke up?" The Clan Lord dropped his subordinate and tossed a gold coin to him before rushing out the room.

"d.a.m.n it. I actually thought that I was going to get a big reward…" The man got up unsteadily and looked at the gold coin in his hand and muttered, "Since when was the Clan Lord so stingy…"

———————————————————��——————————————————————


"Achoo!" Yang Feilong sneezed as he made his way to his son"s room and said, "Who"s talking about me?"

One should know that Yang Feilong wasn"t a stingy man. He had given his subordinate the first coin that he had grabbed from his spatial ring.

In fact, Yang Feilong was in such a hurry that he had mistaken a gold coin for a white crystal coin. "That b.a.s.t.a.r.d must be so happy… 1 white crystal coin is worth 1000 gold coins!"

If the subordinate had known what his lord was thinking, he would have vomited blood and died: "What do you mean white crystal coin? This is clearly a gold coin…"

——————————————————————————————————————————

[Welcome, Yang Lei!] The panel silently appeared before his eyes.

"It wasn"t a dream! So…I"m cured?" He began to laugh wickedly. After he calmed down, he began to try out his system.

[Pages Available: Martial Page, World Page, Familiar Page]

Words began to fly across the screen in response to his question.

The Martial Page displayed information about his cultivation and techniques.

The World Page displayed information about his world and if he had a World Key, he could travel to other worlds! Of course, there were restrictions in those worlds, such as the amount of time he could spend there and so on.

Then, the Familiar Page displayed information about his Familiars, pets, etc.

Finally, the Market Page randomly offered items that would refresh once a week. Although every Page had its own shop, the Market Page could potentially sell things that weren"t in the other shops, such as rare and limited items.

According to the system, there were more Pages that he could unlock. It was like a website with many webpages.

For example if he practiced Alchemy, he would unlock the Alchemy Page. However, it wasn"t easy to unlock Pages as he didn"t even know what pages there were. He only knew that he could unlock the Alchemy Page because the system had given him a freebie and used it as an example.

Maybe if he made a harem, he"ll unlock a Harem Page? Hm…

Wait! If he could only unlock Pages after gaining experience in that subject, then how did he unlock the Familiar Page???

In a rush, he opened up the Familiar Page and what he saw made his eyes pop out.

"F*ck!" Yang Lei stared at the screen until his eyes became bloodshot. It was true! The quest! He flashed back to his "dream".

[Quest: Females Need Strong Men…]

"And I"m supposed to help these two crippled, critically injured G.o.ddesses recover to their peak?" Yang Lei gritted his teeth as he remembered the quest objective. He was furious and thought, "Odessa and Kahina better be hot! They better give me "compensation" for my help!"

——————————————————————————————————————————

"Uh, son. Are you ok?" Yang Feilong stared at his son. He was worried about him; Yang Lei had been staring at the wall for 5 minutes already and showed no signs of stopping anytime soon.

"Wha…" Yang Lei turned his head and focused his bloodshot eyes on a person sitting on his bed. He calmed down when he saw that it was just his father and said, "Oh, it"s you, dad."

When the tough Clan Lord heard his son"s voice, tears welled up in his eyes. He gently brought his son into a warm hug and whispered in a hoa.r.s.e voice, "Son…Your father is so sorry. I shouldn"t have tried to force you to become the future Clan Lord. I know how pressure it caused for you…I"m so sorry!"

Yang Lei was surprised at his father"s sudden outburst. Was this really his tough and strong father? The Clan Lord? The man who had raised him from a child to now?

"…It"s ok dad," Yang Lei patted his dad on the back and joked, "I still would have put pressure on myself. Even a piece of coal can become a diamond if it undergoes the trials of fiery heat and tremendous pressure."

"You don"t understand," Yang Feilong"s heart felt warm when he heard his son"s words. "Back then, I promised your mother… I promised her…"

"My mother?" Yang Lei"s ears perked up. He didn"t know who his mother was. He had hazy memories of a warm figure who sang lullabies to him, cared for him, loved him. But that was all. He didn"t even know how she looked like!

His father told him that she loved her sons, and would do anything to protect them. However, one day, she had to leave. The time had come, he said. Either she left, or her sons would die in front of her!

"My mother?" Yang Lei asked curiously.

"…" Realizing his mistake, Yang Feilong shut his mouth immediately and tried to calm down. He noticed Yang Lei"s curious look and coughed, saying, "I have decided that you no longer have to be the Clan Lord after I step down, regardless of the outcome of our bet."

"Wow! Really, father?" Yang Lei knew that his father was trying to change the topic but he allowed him to. If his father didn"t want to talk about his mother, then he would wait. He would wait until his father willingly told him one day.

"Yes, I was thinking about it before," Clan Lord Yang said. He noted Yang Lei"s happiness and asked bitterly, " Do you really detest being the Clan Lord of the Yang Clan that much?"

"No. I have nothing against being the Clan Lord. However, if I become the Clan Lord, I will lose the opportunity to search for my mother! I will find her! I will bring her back!"

"…The path you are taking is dangerous my dear son. Once you walk down that road, there is no turning back," Yang Feilong cautioned his son. Although he secretly agreed with his son, he still had to warn him.

"I know. The very moment I made that bet with you last year, at the age of 14, I was destined to walk the martial path, to never turn back, to never look back, to never give up, even upon death!" Yang Lei resolutely said, staring at his father in the eye.

"I will always support you," Yang Feilong suddenly remembered that his son was inflicted with the Mind Eater Poison. He lamented, "If only the Heavens heard my prayers and healed him!"

He knew his son really wanted to know about his mother. However, he didn"t want his son"s last thoughts to be resentful and angry.

"Right, dad. I forgot to tell you, I"ve been cured. The Mind Eater Poison ain"t got nothin" on me!" Yang Lei was just as forgetful as his father. It must have been the emotions. It must have been���
