.......

Letting out a sigh of satisfaction, I relaxed completely in the bath, hot water, various medicinal herbs and lots of foam.

It's been 8 years since the scarlet day, back then I had a vague image of what this Vongola Family that Brother Feng talked about would be like, but I never imagined that in such a short time, not only would we raise a huge amount of money, but also a huge group of people loyal to the family.

Even though all of this is great, it's really tiring to balance training with the grand master and organizing the family's products.

That's why these baths have become one of my favorite things, it's just amazing, my spiritual energy recovers quickly, my body heals from all the training.

Sinking slowly into the water and foam, my mind starts to wander, a suspicion I've had for a long time starts to return.

Looking around at the extremely sophisticated bathroom only makes the questions I've buried deep down come up again.

(How did he think of all this? There's an obvious difference between genius and knowledge).

Even though I try to relax, questions about the strange things that Brother Feng creates keep running through my mind.

I really hate having doubts about the person I love, but it's getting harder and harder to ignore all the strangeness about him.

When we start working on the incense, the creams and even the clothes, he doesn't look like a genius at work.

The other girls may not realize it, but I, who spent decades in the Tang sect, understand very well how a genius works.

Regardless of how intelligent someone is, it takes time for research, mistakes and successes, even a genius needs to study and learn.

But when I see Brother Feng working, it doesn't look like he's testing and learning from failures, it's more like he already knows what he's doing, and is just trying to find the right components for his items.

It's almost as if he's trying to substitute a few ingredients for a recipe he already knows.

Regardless of how intelligent a person is, it still takes time to accumulate knowledge; a genius without knowledge as a base is just one more in the crowd.

This is also why the great sages and scholars are old, not because they aren't geniuses, but because it takes time to accumulate and test all the knowledge acquired.

Even if you believe that the knowledge in the books is absolutely right, it would still take several decades just to accumulate that knowledge.

But Brother Feng only read a few books in a public library, where the content of the books is slightly dubious, and managed to do all this, no matter how much I love him, and how much I want to ignore it, it's impossible not to have doubts.

Sigh 

(I don't want to think about it)

Closing my eyes, I hope I can relax and maybe fall asleep, but my brain seems to be playing tricks on me.

The moment I close my eyes, the scene comes back in which we were talking about spirit circles, no matter how genius a person is, creating an alternative to not using spirit beast rings in just a few short years....

"Aaaarrrr"

"I want to relax.... I... want answers... but I also have my secrets... aaaaarrrrrr... but damn, I think it's time to talk to him..."

When I got out of the bath, I put on a body cream, unlike the ones the family sells on the market, this one is made with spiritual herbs that help strengthen the body, but it's a very small help, but every help is welcome.

After getting ready, I leave the bathroom for my room, putting on my clothes: a black skirt, a light blue shirt and a black blazer with the family symbol on the front.

After getting ready, I look around the room, and it just makes my mind wonder even more.

This room doesn't have a window, after all SITO 001 was built under a waterfall, and all the lighting is done through spiritual circles, you just have to put a minimum amount of spiritual energy in the circle next to the door, and the whole room lights up.

I take a deep breath, trying to forget about this, I have a lot to do today and I can't delay.

I walked quickly through the well-lit corridors until I reached the cafeteria. As soon as I opened the door, I could see more than 100 people eating breakfast, chatting with friends and getting ready for a day's work.

This is where most of the active members of the family are, they are all wearing suits with the Vongola symbol, most of them are what people call 'outcasts of society'.

Men and women with a garbage martial spirit, who have long since given up on life, orphans from various parts of the empire, and some talents that have not been properly appreciated.

All of them find a place to call home, the family has not only given them a better outlook on life, but has made each of them feel important and appreciated, as Brother Feng said, a simple act of humanity can guarantee a person's eternal loyalty.

As soon as everyone had eaten breakfast, they started to leave, yesterday a big meeting to plan the family's future took place, now all the family members are going to start implementing the plan to dominate the empire's underworld.

We've been planning for 8 years, and now that we've gathered enough money and manpower, it's time to start acting.

I also have work to do, but now that I've decided to be honest with Brother Feng and get some answers, it's best to act decisively.

Taking a deep breath, I go to meet him, and as I get closer to the office, my heart races, I face the door, take a deep breath and enter.

"Brother Feng, we need to talk."

Palace Hall of Spirits 

...........

Things are strange inside the Elders' Palace, ever since the great massacre happened in the dead zone, everyone has been tense.

But lately, everything is even stranger, my grandfather is locked up with the statue of the Angel God all the time.

It wouldn't be a big deal if he was cultivating or praying for the wisdom of the Angel God, but no, he just stands there, staring at the statue, as if waiting for it to come to life.

Another strange thing was that my mother, who always ignored me, suddenly called me saying she had a mission for me.

Usually Grandpa would block her, he told me to stay away from her and never be alone with her.

He told me how she hated me and tried to kill me several times, but whenever I asked why, he said that when I was older I would know.

Now that my grandfather doesn't react to anything, and just stares at the statue, I'll be able to talk to this woman alone, I can't even describe how I feel.

Will she try to kill me? Or will she try to use me for some dark plans? I should use this opportunity to ask: why does she hate me so much? 

My mind is totally lost, I don't know if I should be angry, if I should hate her, all I know is that I'm going to use this opportunity to get the answers I want.

Pv 3⁰ people 

Star Luo Empire 

......

In a dark cell beneath the palace, a man was strapped to an operating table, his body riddled with scars and saturated cuts.

The man's body shook slightly, but not a sound came out of him, perhaps because his tongue had been ripped out or because he had simply adapted to the pain.

His face, once praised as one of the most beautiful in the empire, was ravaged by scars, his forehead with a small hole leading to his brain.

Then in front of the man stood the emperor and the leader of the Zhu family, the two of them looked like standing corpses, they were smiling incredibly happily.

"I can hardly believe that a disappointment like you managed to survive until today, but that's perfect, even though you're a complete failure, you still have my blood, so this should work."

The emperor said this with a crazed smile on his face, he was continuously scratching the side of his head, leaving four large scars.

The leader of the Zhu family wasn't in a better situation, her eyes were bloodshot, with giant dark circles under her eyes, since she hadn't been able to sleep since the day of the massacre in the dead zone, having constant nightmares, to avoid sleeping she had been using her spiritual energy constantly to keep herself awake.

As a result, her body was incredibly weak, her mind constantly confused, the woman who bore the title of the empire's greatest beauty was slowly wasting away.

Picking up a small vial containing dark scarlet energy, she dangled it in front of the eyes of the man lying on the table.

"We finally understood, that creature doesn't use spiritual energy, it uses a different, stronger form of energy.

That's why we recovered the corpses from the day of the massacre and studied them thoroughly, and here's the result."

The emperor looked ecstatic, he grabbed the man's head with indescribable joy.

"Be thankful my worthless son, you will become the savior of mankind, and you will allow our empire to dominate everything and everyone, hahaha"

"We managed to remove the energy from those corpses, it was a lot of trouble, and we only got this small sample, when this energy enters your body you'll stop being garbage, aren't you happy?!"

Saying this with a smile, the leader of the Zhu family poured the scarlet liquid into the small hole in the prince's forehead.

Dai Weisi just looked at his father in horror before the liquid touched his forehead, and the next moment his consciousness disappeared.

.......

Above the realm of the gods, scarlet sea

.......

Sitting on his throne, a creature made of pure corrupted energy suddenly opened his eyes.

The scarlet sea below his great palace immediately began to move, causing the few survivors of the Realm of the Gods to tremble with fear and despair.

"Hmm?! Hahaha, that's interesting, in my thousands of years, it's the first time I've seen a race so desperate to die.

Since you want to destroy yourselves so badly, I'll help you."
