System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1257: Clan

”This is my home.” Sui pointed at the grand city in front of them.

”Woah? What a huge city!” exclaimed Noel in surprise. The size of the city was comparable to his Golden Dawn City.

However, the architecture of this city was different from anything he had seen so far. Instead of the cone-type roof, most of the buildings had a single-slanted roof that faced the sun.

The building might be small, but they were made of brick, painted neatly in red or white.

From the way he saw it, the people had similar features to the people in the Greenwood Kingdom, so they might be from the same ancestry.

”Have you not lived in a city like this?”

”No. I havenʼt. Maybe I will be treated as an outcast here…” Noel looked at his clothes, implying that he should get new clothes to mingle with them.

”Oh!” Sui noticed his worries. He said, ”Big brother. Why donʼt we buy you new clothes? I know a perfect store for this.”

”Sure. Iʼll buy you clothes while Iʼm at it.”

”Hahaha. Please donʼt. Let me treat you at least this much after saving my life.”

”Is that so? If you put it that way, I canʼt reject it.”

”Thatʼs good. Letʼs go. Itʼs this way.”

Sui led him to a store and bought him new clothes. These clothes were completely different from what he had seen so far.

He now wore a white shirt with diagonally laced buttons. There was an embroidered flower coming from the side all the way to his chest. The bottom was simple white cotton pants.

It looked similar to Suiʼs clothes but was more modest.

”Hoho. Does this suit me?” Noel jokingly said while checking his clothes. It was easy to move in these clothes.

”Big brother. Youʼre so handsome. You must have a wife already.”

”Do I look that way? But yes, I do have a wife.”

”Your wife must be happy to have such a handsome and strong husband.” Sui chuckled.

Noel smiled. ”How about you? Looking at how people admire you, you must be pretty important in this city. You must have a wife or at least a fiancee, right?”

”Itʼs a mess. I want to focus on my martial path. Big brother, youʼre so strong. Teach me how to get stronger!” Sui pouted.

”When I was your age, I hadnʼt even trained. You are already ahead of a lot of people.”

”Iʼm not. I canʼt even beat my sister. She is much stronger than me.”

”What? You have such a strong family?” Noel raised his eyebrow.

”Yep. Do you want to visit my clan?”

”A clan?” Noel was confused. He didnʼt know the structure of the hierarchy.

”You donʼt know about it? Where are you from, big brother?”

”Iʼm from far away in the west.”

”The west?” Sui looked down, contemplating. However, he soon gave up and just accepted it. ”Well, I am from one of the four great martial arts clans.

”In fact, my clan is from the first generation. The founder of the clan spread his teaching to other areas and became the foundation of the martial arts clans that are standing today.

”The clan is responsible for protecting its people, so I have to get stronger as quickly as possible so that I can take up my fatherʼs mantle.

”However, my sister is much stronger than me. Itʼs said that her strength is very close to my father, who is the clan head. And she is only 26 years old.

”I have to reach my sisterʼs level before that age and become the clan head.”

Noel crossed his arms. ”So you want to become a clan head? Does that mean youʼre going to compete with your sister?”

”I donʼt know. The elders in my clan say that my sister is not qualified to become the clan head because she is a woman. I donʼt know why they think that way. After all, she can just beat them up. If my sister leaves the clan, wonʼt it make the clan weaker?”

Noel looked at Suiʼs sincere expression. It didnʼt seem he had any grudges with his sister. No, the relationship between the brother and sister looked pretty good.

Sui thought for a moment before coming up with a brilliant idea. ”Thatʼs right. Big Brother! Do you want to visit my clan? Or do you have anything else to do?”

”I donʼt currently have anything to do since Iʼm just going around wherever the wind carries me.”

”Then, visit my clan! Letʼs go. I will guide you!”

”But isnʼt this inappropriate? Iʼm just an outsider.”

”Thatʼs true. Big Brotherʼs name is also kind of weird, but itʼs fine. Big brother is strong.”

Noel smiled wryly. It seemed that Sui just thought everything could be solved with martial might.

Then again, he was still a pure young boy, so he understood it. After some consideration, he nodded his head. ”Sure. I donʼt have anything to do anyway.”

Sui became even more excited and immediately brought Noel to the biggest mansion in the city. The mansion was vast, but it only had a single floor. It was also filled with multiple gardens and courtyards, which seemed to be used for training.

As if they sensed his presence, a person suddenly leaped and broke through the roof.

”What are you doing with my Xui? A spirit transcendence expert is trying to mess with my clan?” The man with a similar appearance as Suiʼs came crashing down with his fist.

His strength was similar to Noel and his body was big and filled with muscles. He came to Noel with all the momentum as his flame-covered fist struck him.

”!!!” Noel immediately grabbed that fist while releasing his own energy. His ice energy soared and clashed with his blazing energy, causing the sky to split in two colors: red and blue, which represented their respective energies.

The clash was so fierce that the floor tiles were ripped from the ground and sent flying. The gate shattered into pieces before a steam combustion occurred.

Boom!
