While the Zenith Ant Army rose to do what they did best, within house Serkar, a strikingly handsome, olive-skinned man appearing to be in his early thirties sat on a wooden chair, trapped by dazzling golden chains that rippled with formidable Divine Power. The man struggled, thras.h.i.+ng against the Divine Chains, but to no avail.
And if anyone aware of his ident.i.ty witnessed this scene, their eyes would have undoubtedly popped out of their socket.
"Gulie, all these years, I have spoiled you in vain! How dare you do this to your eldest brother?! Let go of me!"
The man roared, for indeed, he was Hejin Serkar, the house's number three expert, and Gulistan's eldest brother. Berken Serkar had eight children, five sons, and three daughters. Of the eight, the dead Bayiz ranked at the bottom while Gulistan stood at the top. And though their relations.h.i.+p wasn't necessarily strenuous, calling it harmonious would be a blatant lie.
Although now their position within the house was clear and cemented, the endless compet.i.tion and innumerable battles of their youth ensured that true harmony would never exist.
Gulistan and Hejin were the sole exceptions. Was it due to the millennia standing between them? The gender difference or the inexistent need for compet.i.tion among them? For one reason or another, those two were so close that all saw them as the ideal pair of loving brother and sister.
And how could they not be? From infancy to maturity, Gulistan had been spoiled rotten by Hejin, and it was no understatement to call him her "second father." After all, while Berken taught her cultivation, it was Hejin that raised her and dispelled doubts when their father was too busy to.
But now, that same Hejin was locked on a chair by none other than Gulistan herself.
"Resistance is futile. I sealed both your energy center and soul power. You can't escape."
Gulistan stated in a relaxed tone while sipping a cup of tea. That stance only served to further aggravate Hejin, who thrashed harder against his chains. All, to no avail. After another ten minutes of resistance, his last bit of strength vanished, and he sighed in defeat.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
"Gulie, getting this one daughter wasn't easy. You can't really expect me to sit and await news of her death, right?"
