Divine Seal: Six Paths of Reincarnation, I am the Crown-Rank Assassin

Chapter 8: The Holy Family's Reprimand, Three Years Later

Saint Moon pondered for a moment,

Originally, he wanted Xia Yin No. 1 to teach Cai'er, but he thought that Xia Yin No. 2 was staying in the Exorcist City because he was teaching the Chosen One of Reincarnation.

Then let Xia Yin No. 2 teach them together.

After all, he didn't have many people at his disposal.

"Cai'er, if there's anything you want, you can tell your mother, and I'll make it happen for you," Lan Yanyu said earnestly from the side.

“I want you to leave.” She turned her head away, refusing to look at her.

His voice was also cold.

"Hey, how can you talk to your mother like that? You have no manners at all. It wasn't easy for your mother to give birth to you!"

"How can you be so ungrateful?" her grandfather scolded mercilessly. "Lingxin, what kind of upbringing did you have?"

"Cai'er is still very weak. Can you please consider the child's feelings more?"

Yan Qianqiu stood up to stop him.

Even though he knew he would be reprimanded, he was still willing to stand up.

The oppressive atmosphere was so unbearable that he couldn't believe how devastated Cai'er must be inside, being in the center of it all.

The Holy Spirit had a bad feeling.

He spoke up to his father first, reminding him, "He is that chosen one of the gods of reincarnation, a born 100-value individual."

Saint was startled and his brow twitched rapidly.
The coldness in his gaze towards Yan Qianqiu had long since vanished, and his face had unconsciously softened.

However, when he looked at Cai'er, his expression turned stern again.

“Our Holy Family doesn’t have such fragile children,” the man said coldly.

"Get away!" Cai'er yelled hysterically, "All of you, get away from me!"

Yan Qianqiu clenched his fists, his eyes filled with rage.

For the first time ever, he had the idea of ​​taking Cai'er away from here to the Knights' Temple.

This family is completely unreasonable!
He reached out and took Cai'er's hand.

Yan Qianqiu has an extremely strong desire for strength, but he is only four years old now. If only he had another ten years.

"Twelve years from now, I will challenge you!" He didn't say a word, but his lips moved slightly.

His expression appeared calm, but it carried a hint of madness.

Saint realized he had originally wanted to laugh.
Even the most gifted among those favored by the gods of reincarnation could not possibly reach the peak of the eighth rank around the age of sixteen.
But he couldn't laugh at all.

Saint Moon stared coldly at her son, her eyes filled with boundless killing intent, which frightened Saint Jingjue so much that he couldn't help but take a step back.

“Father!” He lowered his head, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

This man in his sixties, a peak eighth-tier assassin from the Assassin's Temple, was as tense as a timid lizard.

"Get lost," Saint Moon said calmly.

"Alright, Father, calm down. It's not worth getting yourself sick from getting angry." Saint was startled and quickly backed away, bowing his head.

"Cai'er, you should rest well. We'll leave now."

Sheng Yue looked at her great-granddaughter with a complicated expression, sighed softly, then gestured for everyone else to leave, and finally silently closed the door.

"Take good care of Cai'er."

"Yes, Your Highness." Aunt Luo replied respectfully.

The Holy Family members left one after another.

Only Yan Qianqiu and Aunt Luo remained.

He felt a pang of sadness as he watched Cai'er's tears flow. Yan Qianqiu finally understood why the girl would turn out the way she did in the future.

In this family environment

Often, the child is the one with the mildest illness.

Why are they so harsh on a four-year-old child who has been asleep for a year?

Yan Qianqiu took out a tissue and gently wiped away the tears on her face.

"I'm so glad that you were the first person I saw when I opened my eyes," she whispered. "I couldn't feel any warmth from them."

"Get up and eat first. A full stomach will make you much happier."

"Yes." The girl nodded emphatically.

For the past year, the pastor used his spiritual power to nourish Cai'er, so it was alright if she didn't need to eat, but of course, it would be best if she could eat. Aunt Luo's cooking was very light.

But it has a perfect combination of color, aroma, and taste.

With Yan Qianqiu's help, Cai'er sat down in the living room.

She sipped the white porridge the boy fed her, a serene smile on her pretty face.

"Aunt Luo, why don't these dishes smell good?" The girl stood at the table, only then realizing that something was wrong with her body.

"Really?" Aunt Luo asked about the food, puzzled. "It smells delicious."

Cai'er picked up some food and brought it to her mouth, smelled it, and a sad expression appeared on her face. "But I can't smell it."

From the day she awoke,
The girl began to lose her sense of smell.

Yan Qianqiu reached out and took her small hand, preparing to find words to comfort her.

Cai'er sniffed, then a happy smile appeared on her face. "I think... I think I can smell it again."

She nestled in the boy's arms, greedily inhaling the fragrance.

He paused for a moment,
Then I recalled the moment when the Heavenly Dao awakened, and the words that came to mind were, "The time has come to crown all things, so that all things may be enlightened..."

The side effects of the fusion with the Reincarnation Spirit Furnace were actually reduced when it came into contact with his body.

Yan Qianqiu looked at the girl in his arms and reached out to ruffle her hair.

……

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the Assassin's Courtyard,
Twenty children are practicing Ghost Steps and Backstab, repeating the movements at least 365 times a day, before starting their medicinal bath.

There was one less boy and one more girl.

Yan Qianqiu was training in the courtyard next door. He held a wooden heavy sword and swung it with fierce movements, while a paladin gave him instructions.

The paladin murmured to himself, "This child's talent is terrifying. No wonder he's a descendant of Brother Yan. If only he were a member of the Knights' Temple."

"How is it?" Yan Qing walked over and asked the Holy Knight.

"Every time this child swings his sword, it contains an inexplicable charm. He is a true genius and doesn't need me to teach him at all."

To my shame, watching him draw his sword, I could even learn the swordplay imbued with the principles of nature.

The paladin smiled wryly.

He was an eighth-tier, first-level paladin, but in front of this child, he realized that he was the apprentice.

This is truly astonishing.

“However, I can teach him some skills from the Paladin Temple,” the Paladin said frankly.

"Knights and assassins are essentially the same family. Besides, since he likes greatswords, he can learn knightly techniques."

With the demon race as a formidable enemy,

The knight had no intention of keeping anything to himself.

Moreover, three thousand years ago, the other five temples all branched off from the predecessor of the Knights Temple, the Glorious Church.

"Thank you!" Yan Qing's expression turned serious.

"Brother Yan, you're too kind." The paladin shook his head. "You saved my life. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today, having reached the eighth rank."

time flies,
Soon it was time for a break.

Yan Qianqiu put away his wooden heavy sword and went to the assassin's courtyard next door.

When Cai'er saw the person who came, her pale purple eyes shone with a glassy light. She swung her arm lightly and ran quickly to the boy's side.

The two embraced tightly.

Cai'er inhaled the fragrance of his hair deeply, like a lazy and adorable cat.

"Aren't you ashamed?" Yan Qianqiu chuckled.

"I don't care what other people think." Cai'er pursed her lips, a serene smile on her face.

The other dozen or so nine-year-old children looked at them, and one of them showed a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

"Hey, do you have the guts to fight me?" said the skinny nine-year-old boy. "I'll make you understand that giving up the dagger was your biggest failure."

In the original story, Cai'er, at the sixth rank, could instantly kill an eighth-rank Star Demon and slay four seventh-rank high-level demons with a single sword strike.
