"Hahaha! Your attitude sure changes fast!"
"Hmph! So what? You're a genius! You're my little brother and you're a genius! Shouldn't I be happy about it? Do you want me to scream and shed tears out of jealousy instead?
Which big sister wouldn't be happy if she found out her little brother's an absolute genius? Only bad sisters would feel jealous over something like that!"
"Hahaha, you're right! Thank you, but I'm not an actual genius…"
"What the hell are you talking about? I already saw what you could do. If you're not a genius, then who in this world would dare to call themselves a genius? You're way too modest little brother!"
"Thank you for thinking so highly of me, but I'm really not an actual genius. I'm just… gifted."
"Gifted?", Tian Mei asked curiously.
She knew that there was more to it than Xiao Huoyan had already told them about. She knew that he had secrets that he had yet to tell them.
"I posses the ability to absorb other people's spirit essences. I can absorb all of it or part of it. If I absorb all of it, then the person that I absorbed it from will be left without a spirit essence."
"… Then does that mean that you can absorb our spirit essences to?"
Even after hearing about Xiao Huoyan's strange ability to absorb other people's spirit essences, Tian Mei didn't feel frightened. She didn't seem to care about whether he'd absorb her spirit essence or not. She seemed to trust him completely! …Or at least enough to not feel frightened by him.
She didn't ask out of fright, but out of curiosity.
"I do indeed posses the ability to do so, but I'd never absorb your spirit essences."
"… Since you can absorb spirit essences, then does that mean that you can transfer your spirit essences to other people too?"
"I've never tried, but I'm pretty sure I can."
"That's good but promise me to never tell anyone else about your ability to transfer spirit essences."
"Why can't he tell anyone else about it? Isn't his abilities a positive thing?", Tian Xin suddenly asked. She didn't understand why her little brother weren't allowed to brag to others about his amazing abilities.
"Sweetie… If other people knew about what he could do, then don't you think that there would be people out there who'd capture him for their own use? People are selfish and greedy. If they knew that there were someone in the world who had the powers to grant them spirit essences, wouldn't they take him away then?"
"You're right, mother. I was too naïve…"
"Thank you for your concern, but I know better than to walk around the streets, telling random people about my abilities.
I believe there's only six people who knows about me being different."
"Who knows, other than us?", Tian Mei had a worried expression on her beautiful face.
"Other than you two, only I, my dead mother, my missing father, father Long and his brother, my uncle, Jin Niao knows."
"Good. Then they're all people whom you can trust."
"To be honest, I don't trust my uncle…"
"Why?"
"I keep getting the feeling that he has bad intentions. I don't posses any proof of my speculations, but I just know that he doesn't have good intentions. He actually left me to die when the enemy attacked, haha!"
"Where is he now?"
"Rosewood City."
"That's not too far away. Since you don't trust him, what do you plan on doing with him then?"
"I'll find him and then I'll kill him before he causes harm to me or you."

"Why would he cause harm to us?"
Tian Xin was shaking. She was truly frightened. She knew how powerful the Jin Clan was.
The fact that they might come after them frightened her beyond imagination.
"… Because you were kind to me. I know that I'm just a child, but I'm not stupid. I know that I can stay hidden forever if I so wish, but I'm not confident in bringing you with me."
"But how would he know that you've been here?"
Tian Mei was worried, but she decided not to say too much for the sake of not scaring her daughter.
"Sooner or later he'll find out that I didn't die. When he finds out, he'll just track me here. When he sees that my traces ends here, he'll become suspicious. If he suspects that I'm still in this village, then he might burn down the whole village to force me to come out."
"But why would he be so eager to kill you? Isn't he still your uncle? He might spare you… I mean, blood IS thicker than water, so--"
"He and I are not related by blood, and even if we were, I still don't think he'd spare me.
Besides, he has already exposed his evil intentions by leaving me to die back at the mansion, so now he's scared. He knows what I can do, so he'll hunt me down out of fear for his own life."
"That makes sense…"
"… Then why don't you just kill him first?"
Tian Xin, who had been silent for quite a while, suddenly spoke.
"That's what I had planned. I want to get rid of him before he causes trouble. That's why I need to go to Rosewood City."
"But do you really have to kill him?"
Tian Xin was just like an innocent child. Of course, she wouldn't wish for people to die.
"Yes."
"But why? Can't you just make peace with each other? There isn't really a need for blood to spill, right?"
"You don't understand the determination of someone who knows that he might die at any moment. If I don't kill him, he'll never stop chasing me."
"But--"
"Either he dies, or I die! He and I can't live under the same heaven! Besides… I tend to hold grudges!"
