And he did. Kong Rong wanted to move after having a cup of coffee but Jin requested to have a talk with Ryuli. This actually allowed the Royal Dragon Zodiac Clan Leader to say he made a move first while using the System's portal System. Usually, people were afraid that if Kong Rong goes around without security, it would be bad for their image. But there were places where Kong Rong needed to go somewhere alone and to this end, he had used the System's portal to move to Rome, Italy. There was a contact or two which he could use to find out whether the Wang Liangs were planted by the Banned Emperor Terrorists. It was also somewhere which he needed to do alone mainly because of the secrecy of the contact that he was meeting. "If anything, I am relying on your System to get me out of any sticky situation." Kong Rong teased the System but it took his request very seriously.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBack to Jin, Agent Ryuli had the same sentiments as Jin as she wanted to have her questions answered. "Who is your master?" "What?" Jin was confused by the manner of questioning since Ryuli did not answer him if he could have a talk with her or not and instead asked that question.
"I repeat again, who is your master in cultivation?" Ryuli asked as she sipped her drink.
"Erm.. Ming? My Grandfather?" Jin asked and Ryuli squinted her eyes and furrowed her eyebrows. "I did not mean the first person who taught you how to cultivate, as in the master who teach you how to utilise your current cultivation." "I …do not have a master?" Jin asked and Ryuli was confused.
"Then? Who... How did you learn your cultivation through?" "Through some trial and error and with a cultivation manual left by my grandfather?" Jin replied as he was really curious why she asked that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Wait, so you cultivate all this by yourself? Then where did you get the manual or rather, where did your grandfather find that cultivation manual from?"
"He created it all by himself and if I am not wrong, he only started and finished it right before he died. I can show you the condition of the manual if you want." Jin said and Ryuli shook her head. "That means I reached another dead end again. Sorry to bother you with my line of questioning." "Then can I ask what is that all about? If I am able to pry a little information about it, I see whether I can help you." Jin said and Ryuli sighed. It looked as if she thought about it for a while and decided to trust Jin since he had been working with Kong Rong so much that Kong Rong was willing to throw everything on the line for this Cultivator, he should be trustworthy enough.
"I am looking for the master who gave me my cultivation powers," Ryuli said as she emitted her energy and it was undoubtedly Maqi. "Because of this, I can utilise both magic and chi at the same time and for some reason, I can feel that same vibe coming from you. And I had confirmed that your chi had a tinge of magic within it as well. This is why there are times I thought I sensed two power sources within you rather than one. It could be possible that you worked for that particular master who gave me my powers." "Ah… I see." Jin was not sure whether she would believe that Jin was the one who gave her some powers. But at the same time, he did not believe it either since it was supposed to be a dream in a taxi. He had no idea why he remembered it so vividly and the actions he had taken.
"Maybe it is in the course of pursuing cultivation, that those mana circuits got unlocked and augmented with the chi circuits? I mean if you have it and I have the same as you, it is possible that there might be other people out there who have the same kind of powers too." Jin tried to comfort her. "Impossible. The concept of chi and mana had been explored for centuries and no one was able to join them together. The fact that you possessed them is due to your cultivation and only your cultivation. The reality is that the Maqi is identical to yours, meaning that User did actually do something to pass the Maqi to her. There is no other explanation than that. It left the System perplexed as well but there is no other explanation than you giving her directly." The System was mumbling in Jin's ears that he found it extremely irritating. "The only thing the System could think of is Time Travel. But the System could not believe that the User had any possible powers capable of doing that." The System stated and Jin asked Ryuli to digest on what he said for a moment as he picked up his phone to pretend to talk to the System.
"You are freaking noisy! What is wrong with you?!" "The System believed the theory that the User had time travelled back in time to give her the Maqi." "I said it was a dream okay! How I could time travel while dreaming?! And if I did, what are the fucking odds that I have a disciple right in front of me? Out of the billion people in China?! Just chill System! I have something else to figure out as well!" Jin said as he put the phone down even though Ryuli could sense that there was no phone call at all Jin was clearly speaking to someone. She decided to ignore it for now as Jin returned to the table.
"Original Bellator Kraft did talk about how Kiyu had residual time magic-" Jin immediately shut the System out even though he remembered the conversation he had with Kraft.
