Through Unknowns

4 The 2 Flower's Fate

Jiang Hao entered his bedroom and laid a sleeping Chang Xiuying on the comfortable bed. He covered the little body of Chang Xiuying with a thick blanket.

He swept back the hair and tuck it behind her tiny ears. He whispered. "It must have been hard on you. Let me take care of your matter. I don't want to lose the promise between your father and me."

Jiang Hao kissed Chang Xiuying's forehead before heading out of his bedroom to sleep on the hard sofa in his living room, he will take care of Chang Xiuying's matter tomorrow morning. Once he closed the bedroom door, Chang Xiuying's eyes opened suddenly. Her black eyes earlier became white again as it flashed like a bright light in the dark bedroom.

Chang Xiuying smiled as she glanced at the closed bedroom door. A white light came out of the gaps, she heard a loud thump on the other side but the next one became quieter.

On the other side of the room, after sitting on a hard sofa, Jiang Hao clenched his fist and thump it hard to release his irritation. He widens his eyes and let a soft thump, fearing that Chang Xiuying will wake up from her peaceful sleep.

"Seriously, that niece of mine!" He sighed and slowly regained his composure. Having a troubled heart will cause a great trouble to deal with in regards to his state of mind later. It will affect his cultivation later on...

Despite the distance between him and Chang Xiuying, the child clearly heard this. With her enhanced senses that is caused by the intense and hellish training on Earth doubled with her transmigration, within her coverage area of 300 meters, nothing can escape her grasp.

Chang Xiuying got up and prepared herself. She tiptoed and slowly opened the door with her two hands, her eyes squinted and rubbed it. She called in a low and sleepy tone, "Uncle Jiang?"

Jiang Hao was startled at the sudden calling. He quickly stood up and carried the sleepy Chang Xiuying in his arms. "Ying Er, children should be asleep at this hour. Come now, let's get you to sleep."

Chang Xiuying shook her head drowsily and asked in a confused tone, "Is Uncle Jiang troubled?"

"This... I am indeed troubled. But children should not mind such situations, let the adults do it as you're too young to meddle to such affairs." Jiang Hao entered his room once again and laid the child in his embrace into his bed.

"You should not be hasty when taking action. Think of the consequences that will befall into your hands and into the hands of the people involved around you. Think slowly and take action on the right time and on the right place." A matured but childlike voice rang out once Jiang Hao exited his bedroom. He looked at the place where it originated from, but he only saw the little Chang Xiuying asleep in his comfortable bed.

"This can't be..." He said to himself before departing. He also decided to not dwell into it and would rather want to postpone the matter with Jiang Li. Chang Xiuying came back safe and sound after all. However, he didn't know that the person they knew as Chang Xiuying had already integrated with the red-eyed girl.

...

Before dawn, Chang Xiuying woke up and started to stretch her little body, she started some aerobic exercise. She didn't want to practice the intense training she had back on Earth as it is too much to hold for this little body, most importantly, she would not be able to grow up!

After completing the set of exercise and some other matters, she quietly pushed the door and saw Jiang Hao sleeping like a log on the hard sofa. She tiptoed and dared not to dash towards the door as she is afraid to wake Jiang Hao up. Upon reaching the door, she punched it and left as quickly as the raging wind.

When a loud 'BANG!' erupted, Jiang Hao anxiously got up just to see the destroyed door. He hastily entered his bedroom, he saw the bed that someone forcefully got someone and some petals of the 7-colored flower scattered on the floor. "This..."

He anxiously set out from his house to go to the South Garden Pagoda where Irene lived. He knocked countless times and Irene irritatedly opened the door. She saw Jiang Hao's pale complexion and she hurriedly invited him in. But Jiang Hao refused, instead, he asked if there's a 10-colored flower in her bedside table. Irene got confused and told Jiang Hao to wait for a moment.

She got out of her place and held the 10-colored flower while giving it to Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao sighed, he pushed Irene's hand back and said, "It's for you so don't lose it."

He quickly departs to look for Chang Xiuying. Since he already knew that Chang Xiuying left on her own accord and left the 10-colored flower in Irene's home. But it can't explain how did she destroy the door. He finally remembered the white-eyed figure and the appearance of Chang Xiuying once it disappeared.

He concluded that the disappearance of Chang Xiuying is connected to the white-eyed figure. He also concluded that the white-eyed figure helped her, thus the reason why Chang Xiuying is safe when the massacre occurred.

Jiang Hao stopped in his tracks. He instead waited at the edge of the forest for Chang Xiuying's return.

...

When Irene saw the departing figure of Jiang Hao, she tightly clutched the flower in her hands, holding it close to her heart. Her chest tightened, she bit her lower lip and a bitter smile arced in her mouth. She looked above to see the blinding sun, she closed her eyes and bathed her face with sunlight.

"It seemed, that my heart no longer contained you, Dear Gus... this time, I met a man and married him out of admiration. But now, admiration seemed like an understatement of what I am feeling. I made him wait, for a long period of time, to give my heart to him. Thank you, my Dear Gus, for giving me this chance that I almost miss out."

Irene looked in the direction where she can see Jiang Hao looking profoundly at the forest. She can see his clear emerald eyes and his brown hair fluttering in the air, such a picturesque view of a formidable man. Her heart thumped wildly as she hugged the 10-colored flower while looking at the man who gave it to her with all his heart.

...

When Chang Xiuying obtained 3 beast carcasses, it's already noon. She began to execute basic stances of Qi Circulation. After the first breath, layers and layers of mist entered her body. Something trembled inside her and stopped after the fourth breath. Continuing it for 3 more hours made her sweaty.

"Still need more..." Chang Xiuying said to herself but she felt sticky and chummy all over. She rested for a few moments and started to find a body of water to take a bath. Discovering one, she ran excitedly and dived into the shallow pond.

Chang Xiuying soaked herself with her clothes on and sprang up from the water. She released a turbid air from her mouth and sighed in relief. "Oh, I completely forgot to check this girl's appearance

Looking down at the clear surface of the water, she saw captivating but extremely disturbing white eyes. She hastily came out of the water before meditating to calm her nerves down.

Having white eyes on Earth are extremely rare, you might not found one or it never existed. However, the first time she saw one was not on other people but herself. She would've freaked out if she ever saw it on others what's more if she sees it in herself.

Chang Xiuying kept calming herself down and felt a power that entered her mind through her glabella at a fast rate. She grimaced, gritting her teeth and consecutive 'boom!' erupted from her body. She sweats profusely as she dares not open her eyes and break its momentum. She felt that, otherwise, she'll die.

At the last explosion of power, her body shined red and floated 10 centimeters off the ground. She can feel and see the world clearly than ever, her sensory sharpened for a whole new realm. Her ranges multiplied 10 times more and all of it became so sensitive. As if her senses were integrated as one with the world.

She can hear the loud discussions of people 650 meters away from her. She can smell a high-grade herb thousands of meters away from her. Her sight became so much clearer that she can see the people in the village in 720p resolution.

When the situation died down and she slowly landed on the ground. Chang Xiuying opened her eyes then it shined silver with a glint of red and it returned back to being white. Now, she accepted her appearance although it is disturbing. Furthermore, her white eyes are not discovered by the two people she encountered. Which she thought was weird.

Suddenly, something rang out in her mind.

[Congratulations! Host, Chang Xiuying, have finally reached the peak of the Harmonious stage.]
