"Okay, Gege, um… do you know about someone called Saint Michael?" Han Shun asked.
"Uhk!" Bai Shijue choked on his food when he heard the question. He looked at Han Shun in disbelief. "W—Where did you get that name?"
"Um… in my dream, I saw a man with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was tall and introduced himself as Saint Michael," Han Shun said. He didn't want to tell Bai Gege about everything, though, at least not at the part when Saint Michael told him that Bai Gege was in their hearts. They loved the same person as they were also connected.
Han Shun could feel it as well. He could feel the emotional bond between him and Saint Michael, at least the moment he saw Saint Michael, there was a tacit understanding that they were meant to be with Bai Gege.
"And… what did he say to you?" Bai Shijue asked warily. He was scared that something out of his control might have happened with Han Shun.
"He said that he keeps you in his heart, Bai Gege," Han Shun said, changing the words a bit so Bai Gege wouldn't know that Han Shun and Saint Michael harbored the same feeling.
He still didn't understand the concept of keeping Bai Gege close in his heart. He heard about the soldiers who had wives and girlfriends in their hometown, but for Han Shun… he still didn't know what his true feeling for Bai Gege was, but one thing for sure, he absolutely refused to get separated from Bai Gege.
"I see…" Bai Shijue mumbled.
[Pupa, what the heck is this?!]
[Pupa: I don't know. It happened in his dream. How am I supposed to intercept that?]
[Aish, I'm scared that Han Shun might be blackened for whatever reason. God Han Ye isn't in this world, right?]
[Pupa: I detected nothing, his presence is not in this world at all.]
[Then what caused Han Shun to dream about Saint Michael…]
Bai Yunyu has a lot of questions in his head right now. But in the end, he had one mission right now, Han Shun shouldn't know about his past with God Han Ye.
He wanted to raise Han Shun as a good big brother and father figure. Hopefully, Han Shun would stand above all like a good person, untainted with the desire that God Han Ye had.
"Saint Michael is someone I know from my adventure in the past. He comes from a faraway land. We're good friends, so you don't need to worry about it," Bai Shijue said, trying to lie his way out. He couldn't exactly explain that Saint Michael was his past lover from the past world. It just didn't make sense.
"So, Saint Michael is just your friend from far away land?"
"Yes."
…
"Yes, Gege…"
Han Shun felt conflicted right now. He was convinced that his Bai Gege wouldn't lie to him because Bai Gege was an immortal that was free from mortal sin.
Even Saint Michael told him that Bai Gege was free from sin.
'But why would Bai Gege lie to me? Bai Gege is the purest person in my life! He will never lie to me!' Han Shun thought. 'Maybe that Saint Michael is the one lying. He must've been Bai Gege's friend, but he likes Bai Gege, that's why he claimed that he is Bai Gege's lover! What a scoundrel!'
'Yeah, Saint Michael is lying!'
After making his own conclusion, Han Shun finally stopped asking about Saint Michael and decided to ask about another thing, "Bai Gege, I already prove myself that I'm capable, right?
"Uh-huh…" Bai Shijue nodded, "You did really great, even I didn't expect you to beat General Fei."
"Hehe, that means I'm ready for the cultivation training, right? I really want to accompany you, Gege!" Han Shun said, indirectly pressing Bai Shijue to give him something to star this cultivation.
Bai Shijue stopped eating and put his chopstick on the tray.
He stared at the expectant young man in front of him and asked, "Han Shun, are you sure that you're ready for your cultivation? You're still 13 years old. You can wait a few more years if you want."
Han Shun shook his head, "I don't want to wait, Bai Gege. I've been training every day, so I can accept whatever you gave me!"
Han Shun looked eager, but it wasn't because he wanted power. Deep down, he was afraid Bai Gege might leave him if he wasn't fast enough to learn cultivation.
There was no guarantee that Bai Gege would leave him while he was still too weak, which was his biggest nightmare.
[Pupa, should we give it to him now?]
[Pupa: He is strong enough to beat General Fei. General Fei is literally the pinnacle of human strength for at least 90% of the humans in this mortal realm. It's safe to do that, I think.]
[I'm just worried that his mortal body wouldn't be able to handle the power he would have soon…]
[Pupa: You can just give him the basics and also identify his root and natural affinity. That won't hurt.]
Bai Shijue was considering it for a moment and then nodded, "Let's start with the basics."
Bai Shijue snapped his finger, and the food tray in front of them disappeared instantly. He got up and walked towards Han Shun, then he sat cross-legged behind the young man.
"I will identify your root first and see your affinity."
"Affinity?"
"Yes, it will determine what kind of technique you're able to use. It can be one of the five elements, wood, fire, earth, metal, and water."
"Okay, what should I do, Gege?"
"Close your eyes, and empty your mind. Allow me to enter your consciousness, and I will check it myself," Bai Shijue said.
Han Shun always obeyed Bai Gege's word, so he nodded without question and closed his eyes.
Bai Shijue took a deep breath, and he placed his palm on Han Shun's back.. He closed his eyes and transferred his energy to Han Shun to inspect the spiritual root of this young man.
