The Chaos Dragon Prince
330 Invitation From The Eldest's
Lisa could only go with the flow.
It wasn't as if she and Cain didn't care about unjust or the cruelness of society. But rather, they know they have their own lives to live as they can be easily ruined just like any other poor person.
Cain knows for sure a number of people would have the same indifferent reaction when confronted with poor or homeless people.
And it was indeed selfish to those people.
Cain never justifies his actions for some greater cause. Rather, he believed he was being realistic and rational so that he and Lisa could live comfortably.
Moreover, at this time, Cain was still in the midst of giving meaning to his life. His sympathy was almost non-existent at this point.
And it was this mindset that stuck with him like a spider web.
....
When blinking his eyes as the memories faded away, Cain's lips slightly curled.
It was a smirk of slight amusement.
Here he was, in a position to make an actual change for the bottom tier of people in society.
And yet, Cain didn't feel a single pang of sympathy or empathy.
In this moment, he realized this was just his Martial nature. His most inner desires that get to emerge in a universe full of mysteries.
Cain is more than aware he's not a good person in society standards back in his previous homeworld or even the society of the Divine Boundless Heavens.
Despite Martial cultivators' more broadened mental state, of course, there exist entire massive organizations that wholeheartedly believe in being a good person and maintaining justice.
And for Cain?
As long it doesn't impede him, Kali, Amber, or his grandmother, he wouldn't interfere at all, even if it was broadcasted right in front of his face.
This was the side of his indifferent Martial nature.
Thus, Cain gently grasped Amber's hand, saying to her, "Let's go. Nothing for us here."
Amber lovingly leaned closer to Cain's hand.
And like that, with a clear state of mind, the young couple walked out of the Servant Shop, intending to enjoy the rest of their day.
....
Days quietly passed in the Huang Dragon Imperial Palace.
Even though Cain and Kali caused a massive racket to the point that it shook the Thunderous Collision World, the imperial children were actually having peaceful, leisurely times.
Cain spent his days either leisurely cultivating, Spirit energy training with Amber, sparring with Kali, or soul comprehension training with Shi Wei.
Certainly, across many Middle God Galaxies' Holy Lands, Cain had the genuine treatment of a proud son of the heavens.
Cain himself felt a bit queer about this. He can still clearly recall in his previous homeworld where he read about other famous geniuses being virtuously nurtured by their powerful Sect backgrounds.
And he never truly understood just how much a massive advantage this is until all of his recent experiences with Shi Wei.
Cain almost had slight hopes for continuing this leisurely life for months to come.
But alas, their system of cultivation simply doesn't allow for that.
Moreover, the outside world won't simply wait for a legendary Divine Mortal to go under the radar.
Thus, Cain was mentally preparing himself for the true chaotic days to come.
It's also why he decided to make it a regular occurrence to intensely spar with Kali whenever he had the time. Only she could honestly make him work up a great sweat. Though, neither of them had yet to truly go all out against each other.
On such a day, Cain was in his private, imperial courtyard with Kali.
The courtyard had a lively garden that gave the whole area life while exuding a serene atmosphere.
And in standards to the God Galaxies, its size was immense, being at least comparable to the lobby of a mansion manor.
As of now, Cain and Kali stood a considerable distance apart from each other.
Their eyes blazed with fighting spirits as a suffocating aura gradually gushed out of them.
Kali's expression was the epitome of excitement. She can only give her most broad smile during times likes. Her eyes glowed a clear, icy light, and floating around her, one would be able to spot blue lights of frost energy.
With her confidently crossed her bust, Kali said, "Say, brother, shall we make this spar a bit different? I no longer want to just do causal spar. Let's go all out!"
Even without Cain's response, Kali's aura was gradually rising. Her frost energy turned colder, nearly freezing the atmosphere a few meters around her.
Waves of cold air suddenly swirled around the courtyard. Tiny flowers on the ground began to freeze over.
Cain's clothes slightly flapped as the cold air trickled him.
Unfazed by the frost energy, Cain seriously considered Kali's question.
Even until now, he and Kali never really went all out against each other. In previous times, it was because their prowess simply wasn't equal to each other. The domination would be a severe blow to Kali's pride.
But now?
Cain wasn't so sure if it would be easy domination.
He had to admit it, Kali's Source Laws attainment path continued to develop at a level that utterly astonished him.
Cain's affinity lies with Heaven and Earth Path along with the Soul Path.
And Kali's affinity clearly lies with the Source Law attainment path to degrees she can draw forth strength rivaling or even surpassing the best Divine ranking energy amplification methods.
Her rapid improvements could only be expected of a Divine Mortal genius. They are all quite literally described to be anomalies that can defy the very logic of their cultivation system.
Naturally, she can make her own outrageous achievements. She had even reached the point where her depths were unknown.
Seeing where such depths lie was incredibly enticing to Cain. He always wanted a battle where he could pour his all into it, using up everything in his arsenal until he couldn't even move anymore.
And Kali may just be the only person who could provide such satisfaction.
But before Cain could make a decision, Amber, who was calmly sitting on the sidelines, started to speak with an amused tone. "Kali. Are you sure you really want to go all out? You know we've been practicing a Spirit move that can even greatly affect you. It can be a turning point that you won't be able to overcome."
"Oh? Spirit Arts, huh?" Kali lightly sneered. "I won't deny that Spirit energy is powerful, sometimes even better than the effects of Qi energy. But in the end, my Ice Laws will and can freeze it over. Heh. In terms of attainment level, my Source Laws far surpasses you and Cain's Spirit Laws."
Being so directly rebuked didn't even cause Amber to get slightly annoyed. She lightly smiled and spoke with a more confident tone.
"I'm really intrigued to see how your Ice can cover our versatility. I have no interest in battle, but I know for sure Spirit energy is near impossible to stop."
"Tch. Just a bunch of bullshit if you don't even want to fight with us." Kali scoffed at her.
Cain felt his own amusement rising and decided to join in on the conversation.
"Qi and Spirit are quite powerful and suppress each other in numerous ways. But grandmother really is showing me just how equally powerful the Soul path is. With this, who knows? Maybe I can suppress Qi and Spirit path. with it"
Neither Kali nor Amber was so quick to rebuttal when Cain brought up Shi Wei. Even they subconsciously believed her word was law.
They couldn't even deny the possibilities of the Soul path strength in general. This path is notoriously mysterious yet also tremendously powerful in the right master's hands.
If Cain could control it, his prowess would undoubtedly rise to terrifying levels!
Kali and Amber, who were used to Cain's feats, couldn't help but shutter that thought.
Before their conversation could continue, a shine sparkled from Cain's pocket.
Cain snapped his hand, bringing out the contact ring that was vaguely glowing. Slight surprise emerged on his face.
He loudly muttered, "Well, well? If it isn't the famous Crown Prince? He's actually the first one besides the Xun duo to contact me."
Kali and Amber were intrigued and waited in silent anticipation.
Cain poured his soul energy into the contact ring, causing Huang Zilong's voice to echo in his mind.
'Excuse me if I'm bothering you, Cain. But do you have a minute to chat? I promise it will be worth your time. And your eldest sibling Linlong will be here too. Of course, it is all up to you. You can simply ignore this message if you want.'
After listening to the message, Cain quickly relayed it to the girls moment later, curious about their opinions.
Kali's reaction was expectantly negative. She came up with a couple of questions, asking, "So he contacted you and not me as well? Moreover, what point could he possibly have to share with only you?"
"Well, speaking bluntly about it…" Amber had a slight wariness in her tone. "You intently dislike all of your older siblings. Cain at least showed causal indifference and genuine openness towards the others. So, I'm not surprised they chose the diplomatic choice only."
"Moreover, there is a bit of a point to this meeting." Cain began to add on. "Zilong has a more engraved influence among the Huang Dragons. His thoughts and actions can affect them on a higher personal level than us. After all, we revealed our Divine Mortal status merely weeks ago. A person with Zilong's influence can prove greatly future after our Divine ascensions."
As Cain spoke, he abruptly froze. At that moment, the words of Huang Xun and Dai's serious warnings streaked through his mind. Their words had always been at the back of his mind.
No matter if they were weaker, Cain seriously took their advice.
And now, faced with Huang Zilong, Cain put more thought into his next move.
Cain's arrogance grows day by day, but it would never reach a foolish point.
Even as Divine Mortals, Cain didn't doubt that Huang Zilong and Linlong could still be a thorn in his sides.
Thus, Cain decided to contact Huang Xun. He took out her contact ring, injecting soul energy as he transmitted, 'Xun, are you there? I have something t ask about. Zilong is inviting for a talk with both him and Linlong. Your thoughts?'
He got straight to the point as it is a quality Huang Xun highly values.
Huang Xun's reply was also prompt. Her tone was calm as she said, 'If I'm guessing it, Zilong most likely wants to sow some kind of seed into you. His plans normally involve causing more defects to us. And sowing discord would be the biggest benefit to him. But at the same time…he is the Dragon Emperor's only son. It would be best not to outright ignore him and stay wary. I do believe even grandmother still has to be fair when it comes to certain practices.'
'I see.' Cain slowly nodded, a decision already coming to his mind. 'Alright, I have made my decision. I will speak to you later.'
