Chapter 2: Trapped
"Go a head! Kill me!" The old man told the bandit.
"Nah! I am going to keep you alive, since you are so convincing! I probably can get better pay day! Since you can testify of that crazy brat! I mean he jump waving his hand at me! Hahaha! Dumb!" The bandit mocking him.
"Murderer!!" The old man replied.
"Hey we did not push him! Anyway we will cut his head first before we push his body down the cliff! Hehehe!" The saber bandit continuing the conversation.
"Ah don't mention that! It get me work up again!" The other bandit sneered.
The old man was old Tang, he was Wen Tjong guardian when he was sent out by the family to take the test, Wen Tjong and old Tang manage to come back to the family in one piece, there is no one Wen Tjong trust than old Tang. The other two of his off springs was unable to get old Tang as a guardian because of that Wen Tjong suspicious of the family elder doing an assassination of his offspring. He manage to convince the elder to get old Tang to guide Wen Jin on the test.
"Old Tang, you should bring this one to me, i have three sons, i am nearing my 40 without a decent heir to inherited my position in the family, you bring him back to me! Even when he only awaken the most weakest rank! Or even a trash, we can survive if the heir line was not broken! My grand children can be nurture!" Wen Tjong kneeling almost begged Old Tang.
"Master please don't do this! I will bring him back even when i am a ghost! That was nothing i would not do for you master!" He also kneel because Wen Tjong refuse to rise. The scene like just happened yesterday, i was when Wen Jin was 6 years old, the day he was outcast into the wild by the family. It been nine struggling years, next year when Wen Jin was 16 years, if he made it to come back to the family, old Tang would finish his last guide as a second time guardian for the Wen family. The Wen family residence was located in the central area of the heaven descent continent, the continent was located between two mountains and two sea. The mountain to the north was the black ice mountain, the land to the west was the holy tiger mountain ridge that spread all the way into the phoenix peak mountain on the south down to the deep sea to the far south spreading wide to azure dragon east sea islands archipelago. It said the land on the central area was so rich because a dragon veins of heaven was tapped into the land life force, making the land and the people prosperous. Owning such of treasured area invite danger, the first to invade was spirit deities, animal that cultivated their body that advantage of the rich spirited dragon veins. Many has able to own area that was inhabitable by the people, many even worshiped by the local community as their area protector. Some just became so brutal then began to exploits the people and demand blood offerings, some of the people rise up to became the people protector and gain power from subjugating the beast invading their land, this was the forefather of the families that eventually rise to power that regarded as the area protector. Soon kings was made by several families voting, contest of power was used to choose a ruling king every three years. That is why the politic and the black operations was always shadowing the families, influential power was important to guard the life of their offspring. Over two generations ago the Wen forefather setup a cruel rules to select the best seed for the family to test their young family member to survived the harsh outside world without the support of the family for ten years period. Leaving them vulnerable to fend themselves on the outside, to not raised them to be a flower in the green house. Tainted them with blood and tears to select the best strong seed for the family, but after the forefather passing the ritual became an excuse to get rid off rivals and unwanted family members.
Wen Jin father Wen Tjong came back on his 16 years as a level 2 rank cultivator, he manage to contract a golden lion spirit beast with average aptitude. Later in the years when he was 20 years old he was contending to the junior elder position, he got injured and stuck on a level 6 rank bottle neck. Unable to move forward he was married with a lady from the Liu family, at the age of 25 Wen Tjong married Liu Siang. But fate says different after his first born he was able to break through to the 7 level and increase in rank getting his second spirit beast a golden wind eagle. He was appointed as a junior hall manager, after two years he manage to get his second offspring and he also able to rise into level 8 rank, the family appointed him to be a full hall manager. Alas his first son never awaken in that year and the decline continues, his second son also do not show sign awakening at three years old. At his age of 32 his first born was sent to the outside in a year news came that his first son has died at 7 years old. A year later he had to send his second son at that time Liu Siang has pregnant once more, Wen Tjong began to prepare precious herbs and rare treasure to invoke his third son bloodline to avoid sending his third son to the outside. Several months after the birth of his third son his second son was dead at the age of barely eight. He was suspicious there is someone in the family that was targeting his sons, "when people tried only heaven determine the fates" at 3 years old Wen Jin had not shown any sign of awakening. Following the previous Wen Jing was sent away at 6 years old, guided by Old Tang, he was Wen Tjong most trusted man.
Wen Jin woke up in a cave, a strange golden toad was screaming at him when he woke up.
"Is this heaven? Are you a golden toad?"
The little gold dragon was furious, he spit breath of fire towards Wen Jin, he jumps out of his spot burning.
"Is this hell then!" Wen Jin asking.
"We'll found out where when you are half baked by my fire!" Little dragon was pissed because some stupid brat call him a toad.
"Pssss!" Wen Jin manage to find a puddle of water to put up a fire that was burning his clothes.
"So where do you thing you are know?" The golden dragon shout at him.
"I am in between? Heaven is the puddle of water and hell was your fire!" Wen Jin retorted angrily.
"Good guess but no!" The golden dragon spoke.
"Just say it normally why do you have to roast my butt!?" Wen Jin asked.
"You started you blind bat! I am not a toad, take a better look at me! Do toad has wings?" Golden dragon show his tiny undeveloped wings.
"Hmm, are you a special flying toad?" Wen Jin teased him realizing that the golden creature was some kind of a tiny lizard that can fly.. a newborn dragon perhaps?
"Keep at it, i will burn you into crisp!" The golden dragon retorted.
"Woa! You are a dragon! An angry one and unfriendly.." Wen Jin jumped back when the little golden dragon take a stance to spit another ember of fire at him.
"Good you are not blind!" The golden dragon continuing what he's doing.
"What are you doing, and how can i get back?" Wen Jin asked.
"The first one, none of your business so piss off! And you are trapped with me here, it is a prison!" The golden dragon spoke calmly.
"There now show me the way.. wait what!?" Wen Jin surprised.
"No way out man! I have tried everything! You welcome to try!" Golden dragon.
Wen Jin dropped on his knees, he can not believe his luck, being chased and plan to die only to find out he manage to get himself stuck on a prison cave!
He felt so wrong in his entire life, the stress alone almost going to make him vomited blood, if he can find any. He was so skinny that even a tiger would pass his meat over a fat rabbit, he was the most unlucky trash ever. His family is doomed, he was going to get back into the family a year from now. But seems he has failed the attempt to killed himself jumping from such heights. "Enough destiny.. enough fate.. he even does not have face if he got a change in the afterlife when he meet his ancestor!" He sigh.
"Why do you died so long descendants?"
"I tried to kill myself but failed and i was died because i was roasted by a tiny little dragon that looked like a golden bloated toad!"
"HEY!" The golden dragon looked at him.
"Oh fuck! Did the dragon can read minds??" He was in panic.
