"Don't forget, if there's sothing that can be shared, as knowledge, I hope you will not keep it to yourself."
"I did find sothing I can share," Ken said with a confident smile. Now that he was back in his sect, he needed allies. His grandfather could make a strong backer, and any relationship required giving if one wanted to do so taking.
"Oh, what is it?" Dominic asked while leaning forward from his chair, intrigued.
"I gained a Darkness Qi technique when I stumbled upon an inheritance in the mountains. It's a Heaven-grade technique."
The young scher knew what would interest his grandfather. In fact, this Darkness technique didn't even co from the secret realm, and there was no need to ntion that he hadn't run into any inheritance grounds in the mountains of the central zone.
When Ken morized different techniques to co up with new uses for his Bloodlust Qi, he learned many Darkness Qi techniques in the clan's treasury for reference. He also learned quite a few techniques when he used to spar with Annie.
By now, he knew enough about the Darkness Qi to be capable of altering the techniques he had access to and improving them by integrating all his knowledge about cultivation.
Thus, the technique he presented to his grandfather was actually created by himself.
"Which technique is that? Do you know its exact grade?"
Dominic's breath turned hurried with excitent. Their access to Heaven-grade techniques set the elite families apart from the commoners. They were the only ones who could teach their descendants such arts even if they couldn't beco core disciples, and the Sue Clan only had two Darkness Qi Heaven-grade techniques.
"It's an interdiate Heaven-grade technique, and its na is 'Cut of the Night'. It's an art that uses both Saber Qi and Darkness Qi to create small saber slashes. As soon as the Darkness Qi pervades your enemy's body, it will rush to their eyes to blind them, to their ears to deafen them, to their nose to make them lose their sense of sll, to their tongues to rob them of their sense of taste, and eventually their whole body to make them lose their sense of touch."
"If I landed so many cuts on them, they would be dead," Dominic raised an eyebrow in doubt.
"Indeed, the target of the Darkness Qi will be the closest area. With a single scratch on the cheek, you might be able to take the gift of sight from your enemy, and with a good cut to the wrist, they might lose their ability to sense the weapon in their hand."
Ken explained to his grandfather the chanism behind the technique.
"I see. No matter where I hit them, they will pay a price. It's a great technique, and even fits perfectly, haha! You've done well, I will make sure to protect your interests in the clan as much as I can."
Dominic laughed rrily as he grabbed the technique book from the air impatiently.
"I will take my leave now, Grandfather," Ken said with a smile when he noticed Dominic's eagerness to read the technique.
"Yes, yes, of course. Talk to the guard outside about arranging you with a maid and guards, as well as anything else you need," Dominic said excitedly as he got up from his patriarch chair and headed to the training room.
Ken exited the room and found the guard that escorted him there waiting at the entrance to the mansion.
"Young Master Ken, did the reunion with the patriarch go well?" The guard asked respectfully.I think you should take a look at
"Yes. Please supply with a discipleship token, a clan token, and inner disciple robes with the clan's embroidery. Also, check for whether my guards, Henry and Miles, are back from the Divine Sword Sect. If they aren't, hire so new guards for ."
"Consider it done, Young Master. Henry and Miles have returned and remained hidden in their houses ever since their return two months ago. They didn't answer the call of the patriarch either," the guard reported.
The reason they were hiding and unwilling to leave the inner sect grounds was obvious. They were tasked with guarding a mber of an elite clan, and they could not show up unhard when their client was missing.
"Tell them that I've returned, and they can co and resu their duties as my guards."
"Do you need a maid?"
"No, I have my old one."
Ken preferred to have his loyal forr guards than to hire new ones that he didn't know to whom they report at the end of the day of his every action. He could trust Henry, hence he also trusted Miles.
As for Soleil, the girl used to be a spy of Norman and Krone, and those two were dead now. Her life was in Ken's hands since he could just kill her as punishnt for stealing resources, so he could trust her to a certain degree as well.
He rembered Sol's betrayal, but he knew that it was a result of pampering her with too many resources before stopping altogether; this ti, he had never pampered Soleil with resources and never exposed her to his secrets other than superficially.

"DAMN KID!"
A young-looking man with erald eyes and loose black hair shouted at the empty desert.
He enveloped himself in Qi and made his limp body float to a place of a nearby ally. He was too wounded, and he would get killed easily by any other seventh-stage entity right now. Even those in the sixth stage would pose a serious threat if they were slightly talented.
"Frank, open the damn cave and let in, I need a place to rest."
"Atum, is that you? Are you bringing your troubles over here? Go away and get killed sowhere else, don't compromise my location!"
Atum heard a panicking voice from underground.
"There's nobody after , I just fell into a trap. Stop being a coward and let in."
"Oh, co inside, co inside. I was going to let you inside anyway, haha! I'm not scared of so righteous cultivators."
