While the comedic show continued, Yang Lujia had already lost consciousness as he was forcibly forced out by none other than his father, Yang Jinhai.
Yang Lujia was oblivious to what made him lose consciousness. On the other hand, Fortuniel, who was hiding inside Yang Lujia's body did not even bother to hide. It seemed like the system was very adept at hiding its aura that even Yang Lujia's father, Yang Jinhai, would not be able to trace or sense his presence.
Carrying his son, Yang Jinhai laid him down on a mat and started checking his body. He touched his son's forehead with two of his fingertips together. Closing his eyes, he tried to push his consciousness into his son's soul. Eventually, he reached it—but it took him deeper than he thought it would not.
"That was unexpected… however…" Yang Jinhai trailed off as he checked his son's soul. It was only in the form of an infant. But that was what frightened him the most.
Yang Lujia's soul seemed to be stronger than hers!
"What the hell is going on here?" Yang Jinhai exclaimed. "Could it be some mutation?"
Yang Jinhai was not in a hurry to conceal his soul. He would not dare try to suppress it, lest it would hurt his son more. Therefore, he only let his consciousness fly around the infant-sized soul whose eyes were closed.
"His soul carries a very strong aura. If I decided to indeed suppress it like what I initially wanted to do, even if I was strong, I would still receive some backlash," Yang Jinhai muttered under his breath.
Yang Lujia's soul was a special one. It was deeply hidden within his body that no one would be able to locate it. It was the same case for others with the same bloodline as well, only weaker than him. However, Yang Jinhai never saw anyone with this kind of soul.
Sighing, Yang Jinhai seemed to notice something amiss. He then looked up as though he was looking at something. "It seems like I cannot stay here any longer. The Five Realms' creator had already noticed my presence and was searching for my whereabouts. It seems like I need to hurry, lest it would implicate my son as well."
Although he followed Yang Lujia with a clone, his clone was still not enough to keep Yang Lujia on track. Most of his clones would go astray and choose their own paths as though they were not clones at all and Yang Jinhai did not hold a grudge against them. If he were also in their shoes, he might have also done the same.
With a wave of his hand, a curtain of silky but transparent layer enveloped Yang Lujia's soul. Not later than a while, the process was almost finished, and finally, when it was, he smiled. Leaving Yang Lujia's soul alone, he went out with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Not only are you so strong at your age and have a very strong soul, but you also have the power of the chaos and the dragon emperor within you. No wonder you're more talented than me," Yang Jinhai thought as he caressed his son's hair. "Don't worry. Dad is not abandoning you. I am only doing this for your own good."
He then secretly placed a formation around Yang Lujia's dantian. It was an extremely strong array formation that the Red Qilin's pair of eyes bulged when he saw it. "That flame… even Old Red himself wouldn't be able to produce such an offensive fire…"
When Yang Jinhai heard what the divine beast said, he grinned from ear to ear and stared at the latter. "It's actually a formation made from the strongest flame in the void…"
"Strongest flame…" the Red Qilin said, caught in his own stupor. "Could it be…"
He was extremely shocked. He knew that His Highness had the body of something he did not even know about. However, he once saw His Highness use the same fire and even used ice… It was only now that he was able to recall something like that.
When he looked at Yang Jinhai again and saw that the latter was still grinning like an adept schemer, he felt goosebumps all over his body. Despite being a divine beast, their bloodlines were actually not up to par compared to Yang Jinhai. They had strong bloodlines as beasts but they could not compare to a talent like Yang Jinhai, much more to Yang Lujia who was even more monstrous than his father.
"I think it's time for me to leave," Yang Jinhai said as he reluctantly stood and turned his back on Yang Lujia. He then muttered some words, "There will come a time when we'll meet. I hope that at that time, we will hopefully complete after we rescue her… I need to get stronger for us…"
He then left with a wave of his hand, disappearing from everyone's sight. His servant sighed at the sight of this, although he was still slightly embarrassed earlier but soon realized it was fortunate that there were only a few who had seen his full front portrait. Still red, he also waved his hand and disappeared.
The White Tiger and the Red Qilin were speechless by their sudden decision to leave. Nevertheless, the latter only shook his head and said, "They must have something very urgent to do. In the future, even in our thoughts, we must not question His Highness' actions. Just earlier, I feel like we have all been seen through by him. He was only pretending that he wasn't."
"It's true," the Black Tortoise suddenly said, appearing out of nowhere which scared the hell out of the White Tiger. "Never underestimate His Highness. Even I, who had been living for so long, had never seen anyone as talented as him. Or maybe others had equal talents as His Highness, I just don't know about them. But at my age, I can guarantee that he is the person with the highest talent and also that little girl back then. Not until I saw his son, though."
Then, the old tortoise disappeared once more.
On the other hand, Yang Lujia was slowly gaining consciousness. "What just happened? It feels like I slept for several years."
He then checked his body. There was nothing wrong. However, he felt like he missed something important. It was his instincts that were kicking him awake again. He could not settle down. As he stood up, he was momentarily stunned when he saw both the White Tiger and the Red Qilin.
"Old Red, Little White," he subconsciously muttered. "How much time has passed? I apologize for not completing the test faster."
'',
The Red Qilin and the White Tiger did not know how to react. After all, they did not know that the time within the realm created by Yang Jinhai, Yang Lujia's father, was adjusted to be faster than in reality. Yang Lujia had the idea, but he was still not certain. Therefore, he could only apologize.
Nevertheless, the Red Qilin's monstrous face could not help but twitch after hearing Yang Lujia's words.
'What do you mean with your apology?!'
'We're the ones who would not even think of succeeding in that test!'
The Red Qilin was somewhat angered. However, he contained all of them and managed to calm down. He then replied, "Your Highness, now that you've completed the first divine beast's test. Congratulations!"
"That was all?" Yang Lujia thought that there were more tests than that.
When he thought of his body getting injured, he was also astonished that he seemed to have been healed. After all, the injury inflicted by the loud quails and cries and other sounds within that realm made him think he was going to die anytime. It was the most painful process he had undergone and he thought he was going to die. If not for his resolve to surpass his father, he would not have thrived further in the process.
"You want more like it?" Both beasts were astonished and looked at Yang Lujia in astonishment. "Your Highness…"
"Uhm… I mean… I was just wondering… never mind…"
Of course, who would want to experience something like that again?
He was better off dead if it was the case.
However, he knew that he could not back down and that his father would not set up these tests only to that extent. There must be something to overcome. Knowing that there were not any more tests from the White Tiger, he felt relieved.
"Your Highness, I will now bring you to the Vermillion Bird's territory for her set of tests. Remember this, Your Highness, you must not fear anything. Your father…" Saying this, the Red Qilin sighed and decided against telling Yang Lujia about his father's circumstances. "Never mind, time will tell you soon. As for now, Your Highness needs to focus on succeeding on the other tests. Otherwise, you might not get any clue about your father."
It was true. Within the array formation, there was something related to Yang Jinhai which he himself had implanted before. It was something he prepared for his future son…
