Murim Recurve

The Elder stood at the rooftop of his son's house, making a sweep around the entire Burkurel Re Clan's Central Settlement using his third eye. His third eye was capable of seeing all Elemental Qi.

As it was the Early Fire Month, all the buildings were layered by Fire Qi. It was the characteristic of Fire Qi, it would stick itself onto any objects and settle within its topmost layer. So, all objects would look like they have an affinity to Fire Qi.

This was the month where even regular weapons proved useful due to the thin layer of Fire Qi on them. And due to the characteristics of Fire Qi, the Fire Season was one where even the common folk were able to defend themselves against supernatural phenomenon to a bare minimum.

And in the Peak Fire Month, the density of Fire Qi in every object's surface would make them seem like Fire Qi elemental weapons. There was a distinct characteristic of every Elemental Qi, and their effect varied according to the Season.

At present, the Elder made a sweep, pausing at times as his gaze bored through the Fire Qi layer, noticing if any other Elemental Qi was hiding behind. It was difficult for him to look past the Fire Qi easily. After all, if the Elemental Qi didn't face the exterior, it was hard for him to spot it.

As for normal objects, it was still possible for his vision to bore through the surface. But, he hit his limit when trying to see past a layer of Elemental Qi. He sighed, uttering, "I still have a long way to go."

"It should be easy for you once you reach the peak as a Martial Master. Considering your talent, it wouldn't take long." Another voice resounded as a lady that seemed to be in her teens landed beside him. Even though she looked like a young girl, she was older than him.

The only reason she had become as young was due to the fact she had comprehended the levels of Kalki Qi too fast that her age regressed. Upon seeing her, noticing her age, the Burkurel Re Elder sighed, "Lord, your talent is unmatched in our city. You have become even younger."

"I gained enlightenment recently and managed to comprehend 10 units of Kalki Qi overnight. So, I regressed by another 10 years in age and became a girl." The girl laughed. She had once been the City Lord of Burkurel City and had later retired.

But now that her son had been killed by the Burkurel Ju Clan, and had lost three of her Clan's Elders, even if she looked like she was fine outside, she was fuming within. And, the loss caused her to comprehend the final stages of her Realm, and reach the peak as a Martial Master.

"Lord, will I really be able to see through a Layer of Elemental Qi using my third eye?" The Elder inquired.

"When you reach the peak, you will definitely be able to do that. Though, for those in the Royal Clan, they can do that from the start." She spoke, circulating Fire Qi in her meridians. This caused her to easily ignore all the Fire Qi in the place, even mask it out in her vision as she observed beyond.

She then frowned, "Just as I had expected. The intel provided by Burfuna City's Ki Clan head Elder is correct."

Saying so, her figure flickered. The Burkurel Re Elder too followed after as they soon landed on the roof of a house and looked at the figure of a man walking through the streets. Appearance-wise, he seemed like a healthy individual that was struggling to feed his family.

But, through their third eye, they looked at the Kalki Qi in his body. Unlike Elemental Qi, the Kalki Qi flowed through their blood, as it was their essence. A Martial Master was able to increase the quantity of this essence and wield it to their limit.

And having looked into the Kalki Qi flow in numerous people to date, they immediately noticed that something was amiss in the man. The Kalki Qi flowed through his blood but stopped at his neck, refusing to enter his head.

Only his blood flowed past that point normally and reached his brain. There was something in his neck that prevented his Kalki Qi from heading towards his head. This was completely odd, so the two Elders observed him.

And, once the man walked through a narrow section of the road and when no other eyes were on him, the two Elders appeared behind him and knocked him out. They then carried him and headed towards the largest house in the settlement.

And, the moment they entered the house, the Burkurel Re Elder sighed in sadness once. The Burkurel Ki Clan Elder observed the house, able to sense that something had happened in the place.

Once she looked at him, he explained everything that had transpired in the place, finally sighing as he spoke, "Wouldn't it be for the best to warn the Clan Heads so that something like this doesn't happen in the future? We are harbouring too much risk as it is. If the curse actually breaks free…"

"I have asked about that to the Capital. And, all they replied with was a single line," She sighed, speaking, "The Celestial Emperor's Orders."

"There's nothing we can do about that then." The Burkurel Re Clan Elder sighed as he inspected the captured man's body, soon picking up a tiny vial that had replaced one of his molars. Upon inspecting it, he frowned, "This poison is incredibly potent."

After searching his body thoroughly, they woke him up, planning to interrogate him. But, the moment he got up, the man unhesitatingly clenched his teeth, intending to crush the vial he had hid in his dental cavity as one of the molars.

He stared blankly when he noticed that the vial had been removed. So, he had lost his chance to suicide.

"Now, tell us about yourself." The Burkurel Ki Clan Elder smiled, emitting bloodlust as she spoke.
