Chapter 8: Sidekick Will Be Fighting Back
Li Fang did not ask Su Kang to leave with him. Although he was a little reluctant to leave behind his number one supporter in the beginning but after listening to Su Kang, he can only agree with him.
Sect master has promised him to take care of Li family but he will be busy with sect affairs. Li family isn't strong enough and his mother is in the Qi refining realm.
One small mistake can wipe out his family.
So Li Fang is more comfortable with the idea of leaving his family with Su family.
"Then I will thank Brother Su on the behalf of Li family " Li Fang said.
" You don't have to that. It's the least I can do for you. You don't have to worry about them. You can leave them with me. I will take them them to central plains when I will be joining in next sect recruitment exam." Su Kang said this with confidence in his demeanor.
Sect master Chu looked at the Su Kang with some thoughts. But he did not said anything. He understood the meaning behind Su kang's words.
Qingyun sect was perfectly capable of protecting Li family. Since he promised Li Fang himself, he will keep it. But he can't say anything now. In the end this is Li Fang's intention, he can't say anything more.
Su Kang is talking to his fellow junior disciples from Li Fang's group. The meeting is over now. The group has decided to leave 2 weeks later. Every member of this group will go back to their home and informed about this to their family. Among the followers of Li Fang, many of them are young master of their family. They might have some unfinished duties to take care of in their family.
" They are leaving sooner compared to my memory" Su Kang thought.
They were supposed to leave Jiang state one month later.
" It seems i was the one who delaying them" Su Kang thought.
He doesn't have any opinion about this. He is happy that he isn't going with them to participate in the war.
After analysing these events he feels like this war was a trap prepared for Heavenly sword sect.
Sky Demon sect didn't send their disciples to support demon cultivators but backed them with enough resources to support them in the war.
In this war both sides suffered but hardly any Pill formation expert engaged in life and death battle. But Li fang and his party will change this situation. They will disrupt the plans of demon cultivators and they will also hunt down some Pill formation demon cultivators. After this they will gain fame in this war. Many people will be recruited into the Heavenly sword sect including casual cultivators without any major background.
Heavenly sword sect doesn't select it's disciples on the basis of family background. But most of the cultivators without any background can hardly compete with cultivators with a background.
Most of the disciples selected during the recruitments are children from the major families or sects. These families and sects are one of top powerhouse of their respective states.
But this war will lead to many casual cultivators ended up dying but they will get the opportunity to join Heavenly sword sect.
In this situation it is easy to plant a spy or puppet in the Heavenly sword sect. Su Kang is thinking this is more likely true. Otherwise he didn't have such a deep enmity with demon cultivators to target him. They shouldn't have any information about him. Someone informed them and this person is more likely be a member of Heavenly sword sect.
Li Fang somehow ended up violating a female demon cultivator, he didn't know if this was true or not. Li Fang didn't answered him clearly. Li family was settling in the Central plains at that time so demon cultivators can't do anything to Li fang or his family. But some Demon cultivators didn't have much patience so they started people around Li Fang.
Guys with weaker background and destiny , kept dying and Li Fang made new friends with powerful background,
Su Kang became best target to calm the anger of demon cultivators.
After thinking about this, Su Kang is more determined to take his revenge. His eyes became cold with a killing intent but soon his expression return back to normal.
He left the meeting hall with Li Fang's group. They are leaving for their families to bid farewell.
Su Kang separated from the group and left the Qingyun sect. He is going to the Su family in the Qingyun city.
...
After returning to his room, Su Kang started talking to Fate.
" Fate, can you tell me about Li Fang's destiny?" asked Su Kang with his thoughts.
" Destiny is something more complicated than you think. You will know this when you will reach certain cultivation stage. I can only tell you that Li Fang is born to achieve great things and his destiny is becoming more powerful since he is followed by so many people with great destiny" said Fate.
" Can you quantify his destiny in numbers for me to understand? " asked Su Kang.
He didn't understand how much is a great destiny...but he definitely understands numbers. It is more easy to measure something in numbers to understands their small or big difference.
Fate replied after thinking for a few seconds.
" Li Fang's destiny is pretty much around 32,000 in numbers right now. " replied Fate.
" How about my destiny? " asked Su Fang.
" Yours is around 8,000 in numbers" replied Fate.
After hearing this, Su Kang is speechless. It's four times in numbers. He isn't even going thinking about effects of this sheer difference in destiny. Li Fang can easily survive the situation where Su Kang will be dead, but even his opportunities will be greater than his.
" Can destiny help me in cultivation?" although Su Kang is not expecting a positive response but he still wants to try every means to become strong.
" It can but you can't follow Li Fang's path. Otherwise you will be noticed by the world. I have a different way for you. But for that you need a lot destiny to exchange with me"
replied Fate.
" What different way? Tell me more" Su Kang asked with a confused expression.
" I can take power of destiny from you and in exchange I will be giving you treasures and cultivation resources. It will be based on equal exchange" Fate said.
At first Su Kang was astonished but later he showed a happy expression.
Treasures from Fate will not be something worse compared to ordinary cultivation treasures but it might be even better compared to normal resources.
" You have cultivation resources? " Su Kang asked with excited expression.
Although he is confused why Fate has such treasures and where did he hide it. But he will not ask something like this until Fate speaks about it itself.
" I have treasures inside space pocket. It is enough for your cultivation but you can't choose them. I will be decide it according to your needs and situation."
Space pocket?? It is something that only Mythical level items or above this rank items are supposed to have.
This fragment is at the minimum a mythical level artifact. Then what about complete artifact??
Su Kang is excited. He already predicted that this fragment is extremely powerful and high in ranking but now he confirmed it.
He believes it might be even above Mythical rank because of its weird ability to manipulate destiny.
With the help of Fate, he can even fight back to protoganist. He, a sidekick of protoganist will be fighting back against destiny behind the scenes.
