The Hourglass 57 Identity

Michael figured out so he let down Uncle Akiang who prefer called Shadow because of his awakened power. "Young Master can you not embarrasses me by catching me like that, I am very confident about it you know."

Then Aria decided to interrupt "but I found you before."

"I know young lady" Uncle Akiang, no Shadow let out a sigh as he heard Aria's comment before continuing "Alright let's just meet up with Master alright."

Shadow pull off the black cloth that was warped around him and tossed it at the shadow where he is hiding before and it 'sank' into the shadow.

"Wow! That's convenient, uncle can you drink some of my blood, don't worry it's nothing weird just my superpower." Michael immediately asked.

Shadow looked weirdly toward Michael before rejecting and walked faster upstairs. Michael shrugged and walked up too since he would find one that will have similar power if he searches enough.

Michael then walked into his grandfather's room alone, just as he closed the door his grandfather which is sitting in this dark room with dim light spoke.

"Michael sat down here first" grandfather pointed toward the chair Infront of him but before Michael who juts sat down can talk his grandfather continued "Why didn't you tell me that you have became a cultivator?"

Michael looked at his grandfather and have felt that his grandfather have some qi but it seem he is only at Gas Stage but the qi seem to be very hidden.

"Actually when Aria told me about it at first I thought the cultivation world is super secretive and I didn't know that you are a cultivator too and Uncle Akiang is one too." Michael answered.

Grandpa appeared to be stunned for a while before asking "you…you can fell my qi."

Michael was puzzled by his question but still he answered "yeah was I supposed to not say it and you are at Gas Stage right?"

"Then at what stage are you in?" Grandpa appeared to be shocked a little before asking.

"Solid Stage, Why?" Michael answered.

"Did you awaken a detecting superpower ?" Grandpa asked calmly this time.

"nope."

"Then how come you can feel my qi that is hidden by 'Hidden Pagoda'!, did you breakthrough the solid stage! " Grandpa asked agitatedly.

"Nope but it can be said a hidden stage, also can you explain the situation to me, grandpa?" Michael raised an eyebrow before answering.

"Alright, Alright you may or may not know this but actually to the higher status businessman , entrepreneur, government or something similar all know about this cultivation world and all of them have at least one guard at Liquid Stage while they are at least at Gas Stage even if they are not talented enough to awaken their superpower, they treated this cultivation as life lengthening way." Grandpa explained.

"So grandpa is an ordinary person becoming a normal cultivator and you have Shadow as guard" Michael asked.

"Of course not, if I just have Shadow as the only guard I would have been assassinated by my rival long ago" Grandpa said.

"Then how did I only detect two of you?" Michael asked.

"Then did you detect me at the gate and imagine if a Low Gas Stage cultivator like me can hide that much from you, a Solid Stage cultivator what effect is this 'Hidden Pagoda' can be on several Middle Gas Stage." Grandpa explained this while wearing a mysterious smile.

Michael begin to think then he answered leisurely "I think I can felt them If I touch them or they used any qi but I think I would felt it if they have ill intent toward me."

"I have many things I want to talk with you but first of all why did you have sex with that girl, you even have two girlfriends moreover according to my resources you and the Marcia family kid is about to get together, how did you became this degenerate you even targeted a 10 year old girl!?" Grandpa asked suddenly with an angry expression of his face.

"I kno- wait what!?" Michael responded to the first question but he realized then the second question seems weird.

"I already arranged all of it you know Michael, after you got your heart broken by Jessica I will send you to overseas and introduced you to some girls that you will 'coincidentally' met at you collage and then you will marry her and then y-" Grandpa continued.

"Wait! You knew all about that and I am not a lolicon okay, although I am quiet okay with 14 year or older but 10 year is just a kid I am not that low" Michael defended himself.

After that several hours passed with Grandpa scolding Michael for some action that he is aware of and Michael defending himself but finally grandpa got to tired and dismissed Michael who is greeted by Aria and Melinda who is cultivating surrounded by his family.

The moment they hear the sound of the door closing his mother, brother crowded around him and began asking question while his father just looked over quietly.

"Big Brother is this your girlfriends how did you manage to win two of them?" his brother asked a question first with an expression as if he want to replicate his brother's 'achievement' but before he got his answer mother shoved him aside and asked her question.

"Michael you shouldn't do this when you marry a girl you can only marry one and then the other girl will have to became your mistress or gave up on you she would be hurt won't she even if you manage to make them get along with each other."

Hearing their question Michael knew this is going to be troublesome so he looked at Aria and Melinda who is cultivating with intensity, he even asked for help using their connection and from their twitching face he know they 'heard' but they pretend to just sat there cultivating, Michael figured out that they actually got pestered by his family but pretend to cultivate to ignore them.
