Chapter 5

"Oh dear! It's not right for children to fight!"

Just as I walked out of that dark alley, I was stopped.

"Mother, now that it's clear who the child and the adult are, right?" I looked down at my ten-year-old mother and made a gesture of "look at you, look at me."

"Hey hey! I am your mother, even if you're a Demon Dragon, you should still respect your mother!"

"Yes, Mother, what brings you here?" I lightly smiled and touched the top of my wooden head.

"Ugh~~~ It's all your father's fault for wanting a loli's body, it's so deceiving!" Mother grumbled while fiddling with the small clothes on her body, clearly in a resentful state.

"Perhaps father has some special preferences!"

"Don't badmouth your father!"

You ask, but don't allow me to speak. You're the one deceiving people.

"Sorry, Mother! It's my mistake."

"What?" Mother felt that my tone and attitude suddenly changed, becoming humble and polite, without the feeling of speaking casually or nonsense.

I looked up and saw a head of silver hair on my face, with the white soul now in control of the body.

"Who are you, Uncle?" Mother innocently asked, and three vertical lines instantly appeared on my head.

"I am Qin Yang, Mother!"

"But why did your hair suddenly turn white?"

I could only helplessly explain to my mother why my hair suddenly turned white, and assure her that I had not used any harmful substances like bleach powder, and that there were absolutely no added pigments. Otherwise, she would worry that I had used low-quality hair dye.

It took a lot of effort to make my mother understand and make her realize the truth that her twin-souled son had not actually died, probably.

Talking for too long would exhaust me, and when I'm tired, I look for a place to rest. And now, I'm sitting with my mother at a cafe by the street.

"Do you understand after talking for so long, Mother?"

"Well, a little bit."

I'm kneeling! Someone please take me away. I can't continue speaking. Maybe it's my body's intelligence affecting my soul's intelligence, ultimately lowering my mother's understanding. It's like she doesn't remember anything about my birth, except that it's a serious matter when I was born with black hair. This is truly distressing.

"Alright, I won't say anymore. Mother, do you have something to tell me?"

"Oh! I almost forgot. Here, take this." Mother took out a white transparent crystal from her pocket, tied with a black string.

"What is this?" I took the crystal and it glittered brightly under the sunlight.

"It's your candidate proof. As long as two crystals touch, you can call upon an elder to witness your duel. But in reality, the purpose of the witness is to check if the losing party is really dead."

"Why are you giving it to me now?"

"It takes some time to make this thing, and just as I finished making it, your father asked me to bring it to you. He sent such a small person like me. Isn't he afraid I'll get lost?"

"Huh? How did Mother find me?" Can she track me even when I'm wandering on the street?

"This is called a mother and child bond~~~~"

She thought for a moment, facing the crystal, and said, "I'll take Mother back. I'm afraid you'll get lost!"

"Nonsense, your father isn't afraid of me getting lost, why are you afraid?" It really feels wrong to say whatever I want. Are all mothers like this, or is my mother just different?

"Tsk~~~" Just as I was about to remember to take my mother away, the crystal suddenly reacted, constantly vibrating and making an annoying sound.

Because we were sitting by the floor-to-ceiling glass window, the passersby could see us, and they could also sense the reaction of the crystal.

Outside, there was a girl holding a brown leather bag.

"Well, it seems like there's no time to go home together. Good luck to you. Oh, the crystals have their own labels. Qin Yin's label has already been included in your whitelist, so the crystals of both of you won't react!"

"Whitelist? Are we playing an online game? Can we even add friends?"

"Forget about it. Just think about how you can bring yourself to kill such a cute girl!"

Mother made a victorious gesture, although I didn't know why, she still did it, and then left easily.

"Do you prefer the rooftop?"

"I just think the rooftop is a nearby and quiet place," the girl answered me like this.Although the girl and I only met on the roadside, the rule of "only one can survive once you meet" cannot be ignored, at least for the girl, it is an undeniable rule.

"Hey, I think you're good at killing people."

"I don't like killing girls."

"Get lost! Whether you like killing people or not, it's just an excuse. Anyway, I don't like killing people. It's your turn."

"Tsk~~ I never saw you not liking to kill people during the battle between gods and demons."

"Gods and demons are different, okay!"

"Anyway, I think it's the same. As long as you think killing her is just giving her a chance for a new life, don't you think being born in the Qin family is a tragedy? Compassionate and merciful holy dragon, please set her free. Finally, I need to rest too. Goodbye."

What an unfaithful person, forcing me to take action. Although the soul can still enter the underworld and be reborn in some place in the three realms, I still feel that every life is important.

But I really can't do it. Black will always come out to make up for it.

"Hehe!" The girl shook the crystal in front of me and said, "Hurry up and call the elder to witness."

"Oh! Can I ask for your name?"

"Hui."

"Well..."

"Tell me your name when I'm dead!"

The girl who can survive till now by stepping on the corpses of her fellow clansmen must have some personality. Since she doesn't want to listen, let it be.

When the two crystals collide, there is a rhythmic sound, like some secret language, or it really is a kind of secret language to convey information.

"Which two brats are dueling during lunchtime? If it weren't for the other elders being busy, I wouldn't have come."

"Elder Wu, sorry to bother you at this time."

"Hui, knowing that you're sorry is enough. Let's start quickly, don't let my dishes get cold."

"Yes."

Suddenly, a white light gate appeared between the two crystals. The elder who appeared from the white light gate was a fat man, who was clearly a foodie and only thought about eating while working.

"That young white-haired man over there, looks familiar, which branch clan is he from?" The fat elder carefully looked up and down but couldn't find a name and information that matched his facial characteristics.

"He's from the Qin Feng family."

"The Duke's son? So this is what he looks like." Yesterday, news came that the Duke's son had returned, and today the fifth elder finally saw him in person. He earnestly memorized the information about me in his mind.

"Let's start, quick and decisive." The fifth elder sat on the ground and waited for our result.

Qin Hui clenched her fist and gently punched downwards. At the beginning, I was still unclear, but in an instant, I understood—Gravity Magic, a magic that is different from Light and Dark Magic, and the Five Elemental Magic. It is a special and uncommon magic.

Gravity Magic changes the gravity of my upper body, adding several times the gravity and almost making me fall down unprepared.
