...

In the garden in front of the living room.

Some Lenoir family boys were fawning over Neelam passionately with modest smiles. Every time she asked about something, they would answer quickly in order to create a good impression of themselves.

Some of them were from the branches of the family and some, such as Oliver and Ethan were from the direct line.

Walking slowly among the fresh flowers, Neelam looked a little absent-minded, though her steps didn't falter. She shook the watering can in her hand, bored and detached, like a spirit among the flowers.

Leylin walked out of the living room, thought for a while, and directly went into the flower garden towards Neelam.

Neelam turned her attention towards Leylin, looking at him from head to toe with a gleam in her eye.

"Are you done trying to figure me out? It's no use to be honest, although it's a good technique but sometimes being good is just not good enough." Leylin looked dead into her eyes without any fluctuations in his emotion despite looking at her flawless gorgeous face and crystal clear big charming eyes.

"You know the technique I am using?" Neelam eyes widen as she asked surprised.

"Well obviously not, if I am not wrong it must be a technique bestowed upon you by, Master Ben. Someone like me don't have the means, ability, qualifications to understand and interpret skills from someone at Sky realm. But from what I can see it's a technique revolving around the idea of seeing through one's cultivation by gauging the remnant Profound Qi quality, it's character and reserves on a warriors body."

Neelam's eyes widen further as her mouth gaped slightly, this technique called [Magical Eyes] had the function and trait exactly as what Leylin described. Quite in fact, her teacher pestered her a lot hammering the difference of Profound Qi of different levels and how to recognize and comprehend their differences, the reason why Ben could knew these things was because he can clearly gauge the difference with his superior cultivation base and later hand down the minute characteristics for her to pick up.

"It seems you are very knowledgeable about Martial Skills."

"Well I won't be modest about receiving such a complement and would like to express my pleasure into having my talents recognized."

"You said the technique isn't good enough against you. Why so? Is there anything special about your condition?"

"Good question.. Well first of all its a good technique but sadly, it's flawed in not just one but three apparent ways." Leylin smiled slightly as he started to walk looking around the garden, promoting Neelam to follow behind him.

Everyone else was so astounded and confused by their interaction that they couldn't find any way to chind in.

"Firstly, The cultivation of the user must be higher than the target. Second, since its usage revolve around calculating cultivation level through the remnant Profound Qi, the opponent's Profound Qi control, manipulation and understanding shouldn't surpass the user. Thirdly, since this isn't your own technique based around experience but rather theoretical knowledge, it can't see through special means of masking one's true level and judge objectively."

"Oh, then can you tell me which of these three are the reason I can't see through your cultivation?" Neelam raised her eyebrow as she asked curiously.

Leylin smiled brightly and replied sweetly, "I can not."

Neelam stared at Leylin in surprise, while confusion overtook her mind.

Every man, including Oliver and Ethan, would suit up and do anything to answer her satisfying her every query because they didn't leave a bad impression on her.

But this boy was too different! He refused her outright, as for why he explained all this about this technique and it's flaws made her even more curious about his intentions.

It doesn't seem like he's very interested in talking with her, Leylin has been paying attention to other things while talking with her and, only looking at her mildly and without much interest.

'This guy obviously doesn't take me seriously!' Neelam was stunned and soon drew this conclusion, which triggered her interest in Leylin.

Seeing the crowd turned off but Neelam still standing there, Leylin grew impatient, stretched out his hand as he asked softly, "Where is the turtle shell?"

"You idiot, just now I was calling you! Where have you been just now?" Oliver grunted in discontent and suddenly interrupted remembering that he promised to have Leylin look at the turtle shell.

"Grandfather wanted to have a word with me." Leylin explained casually, "Elder Ian asked me to help miss Neelam read the shell."

"I won't distrub you guys, just give me the thing and see what's it about and I would be on my way, I have better things to do." Leylin waved his hands as he looked at her again, "Can you bring it here?"

"It's at the living room, I will get it right away." Neelam replied in a very melodious voice. She then moved her beautiful legs and thin body and disappeared in an instant.

The girl moved as fast as lightning. Everyone could only see her shadow pass by, unable to follow her movement.

The crowd, including Oliver, were astounded.

Leylin followed her movements with a bored expression, he's at a realm higher than her being a peak Third Sky of Human Level, for him she's very observable.

Even if he wasn't, for Leylin with his A. I. Chip and superiority in speed it would have been easy to follow her movement. Leylin trains an all rounder aspect for his physical aptitude, from his superior strength to, better vitality, speed in short he doesn't have any weakness. Leylin can even follow movement from a Earth Realm Warrior in comparison Neelam is way too slow.

'Even still, her speed is quite remarkable for her cultivation. This must be a pretty high level movement technique Martial Skill.' Leylin thought as he gazed at the stunned crowd.

They realized that not only was Neelam pretty, but also a warrior one realm higher than them.

By the time Neelam had returned, the crowd were still drowning in amazement as only six seconds had passed.

Neelam appeared in front of Leylin with a basin-sized turtle shell in her hand and handed it to him, "Here you are."

Leylin didn't respond as he softly raised his hands and took the shell catching it with between his forefinger and his thumb like a feather.

The basin sized turtle looked like a light object in his hands but unknown to them, Neelam was visually shocked from Leylin's lack of enthusiasm and ease in carrying the shell.

She saw that Leylin didn't even operate his Profound Qi and was able to stabilize his body without problem.

He looked to her with a side glance and turned his attention back to the turtle.

"It's quite heavy." Leylin said as Oliver eyebrows twitched from the statement, the turtle was easily maneuvered by Neelam, and as a Lenoir strength is their forte, Leylin is definitely not having any trouble handling it so it's annoying to see his attempts at striking conversation with Neelam despite playing it cool.

"Yes, I don't know what this shell is made out of. It's about four hundred kilograms." Neelam fingered the short hair beside her ears and added, "I was surprised when I first got it."

"Four hundred kilograms!" Oliver who was about to curse shouted as he rubbed his temples and felt his head go numb.

Neelam held the turtle shell with one hand and could still move that fast! This made him realize the distance between him and her, and he was a little disappointed.

"Berkan, you, you bastard..."

Though Oliver was not a gifted boy, he was clever enough. He realized that Eren had kept this a secret, so he stopped himself before he announced Leylin's latest shocking news.

Leylin remained indifferent. Without replying to anyone, he examined the turtle shell carefully.

"A.I.Chip scan the object, record the information and translate the language." Leylin asked for the chip to carry out the operation although he already knew the way to open it's secrets.

Leylin them nodded to Neelam, "I have an understanding of what it is, can you bring your grandfather as well as mine and come to my room."

At once, Leylin turned and headed to his own house with the turtle shell in his hand.

"Okay." Neelam looked at him confused but stepped up leisurely.

"Big brother, um, are we following them?" Ethan showed a strange face, and asked quietly after the two had moved far away.

"No, you aren't!" Leylin voice sounded as he kept walking alone and opposite to him Neelam was going to bring both Ian and Eren.

...

Leylin lived in a three storey stone house.

The first floor held various trivial stuff, the second floor was for resting, and the third floor was filled with huge book shelves where Berkan kept all sorts of ancient books.

Except for these there is also another underground room he created for his experimentation and tests, although it was mostly unused because of lack of equipments and apparatus, even still Leylin was using the blacksmith's help, formation and spells knowledge to find substitutes.

Leylin didn't stop as he walked directly to his third floor, the third floor covered two hundred square metres.

Apart from the book shelves, there were many bizarre jars, bottles, pots and wine glasses on the expanded third floor.

Leylin put the turtle shell down as he crouched down as well, moving closer to the piece of turtle shell on the ground.

On the back of the basin-sized turtle shell, aside from the complex old moire pattern, was actually eight lip-sized ancient characters. Those eight ancient characters didn't seem to look like they were forcefully carved on, instead they looked like they were naturally formed by the moire patterns on the turtle shell; it was extraordinarily magical.

The eight ancient characters were arranged in two lines and each character was about the same size, and gave off a cold feeling when touched.

"This turtle shell is an ancient inheritance, although it can be useful to me but on the long terms it's better be used to grow her into one of my minions. I have no lack of means, methods, inheritance and technique to employ, exploit and implement in order to achieve my goals. This is an investment and if she isn't worth it..." Leylin thought as his eyes turned cold, inside his deceptively charming smile was a hideous monster lurking, "I would rip this inheritance apart from her body, even if I have to dissect her into a million pieces."

Thinking this, Leylin stopped, took a deep breath, and he made himself take a few steps away from the turtle shell, waiting patiently.

After a short moment, Ian, Eren and Neelam came to the room, and the three surrounded the turtle shell, watching the still turtle shell.

Neelam looked around curiously in Leylin's book filled room as she took out an ancient book randomly, flipped it open and realized she couldn't read it.

She shook her head and thought to herself, "What a weirdo!"

Neelam had various hobbies as well.

She studied plants, tea ceremony, astrology, medicine and weapons, each for a short time. But she was too lazy so she couldn't focus on one thing for too long. She would switch to a new thing shortly after.

These ancient books on the third floor were mostly about ancient history and ancient.

Neelam was not interested in them at all, so she found them all boring and difficult to understand.

Why are you interested in ancient life? What does it have to do with you? What can you do with it?

'But perhaps these are the reason why he's so knowledge and mysterious."

"It's a pretty good treasure you have gotten your hands on, I would agree to help you decode this and gain all the benefits if you agree to fulfill a few of my requests." Leylin crossed his hands as he shamelessly stated.
