Puff..

“What is there to be surprised about, you think I am trash like you!”

He had a look of disdain when he looked at Lin Han…

He immediately realized the error of his statement and quickly looked back at Liu Kang…

He cupped his hands respectfully with a flicker of fear..

“Young Master, please I wasn't referring to you even if you can't cultivate now but I believe there will surely be a way!’”

The young youth spoke openly…

Liu Kang just smiled helplessly…

Only he knows the condition he is in but he doesn't mind for now…

He chose not to be trash..

He finally knows who came to his rescue..

He is Fan Kang..

He is 15years old this year and the only friend of Liu Kang..

He is a handsome looking young youth that was saved by Liu Kang’s father from an assassin and was also raised along with Liu Kang…

He is the only person in the Kang household that accepts Liu Kang and takes him as his brother even though his dantian has been crippled…

He has never seen Liu Kang as trash and always stands out for the bullies that disturbs Liu Kang…

He is a fire attribute genius with a temper that says anything on his mind without the consequences….

“Hmph”

Lin Han recovered from his early outburst…

“You think you can compare me with that trash behind you… so what if you have made a breakthrough, I am also at the peak of the seventh stage of the Body Tempering Realm”

Lin Han spoke out shamelessly and he wasn't confident to go head to head with Fan Kang…

“So such trash also has a defense, hahaha how laughable to console yourself with such stupid sentiments”

Fan Kang scolded him without giving him any face…

“How old are you now and how old am I, am just 15 years old and at the peak of Body Tempering Realm,so what about you…”

Fan Kang angrily rebuked him…

“Who gave you the face to bully my brother, do I allow you to do such”

Fan Kang got angry easily…

Liu Kang who was behind felt warmth in his heart..

He knew this was a brother he had never had in his previous life, such a relationship is worth cherishing…

Fan Kang aura rose to the peak and the fire on his body wanted to make an outburst..

Lin Han panicked and took a step back but suddenly Liu Kang held Fan Kang back…

“Just let him go”

Liu Kang sighed

He knew Fan Kang meant well but he didn't want to bring more problems to the clan..

“Youuu!”

Fan Kang was speechless

He knew Liu Kang was concerned but he was also helpless…

Lin Han recovered and sighed with relief..

He looked at Liu Kang with a look saying at least you are sensible…

“Now go back to your rabbit hole and lemme not see you close to my young master, or else!”

Fan Kang used his aura to suppress him and withdraw it instantly…

Lin Han fell down with fear…

He was trembling from fear that ran down his spine…

He quickly stood up and spoke when he was running..

“Just you wait, the City genius tournament is starting in three months, just you wait…”

He ran like the wind could carry him and abandon his lackey who was lying on the floor…

Sighed..

Fan Kang was helpless..

He knew even though the family head gave him the Kang name, he isn't a descendant of the Kang family..

He turned and looked at Liu Kang who was smiling..

Fan Kang touched his head with embarrassment…

He came forward and supported Liu Kang who was about to fall down…

“Bro, are you hurt? You don't look good…I shouldn't have let that bastard go”

Liu Kang held him back when he wanted to chase after Lin Han…

“Calm down, am just empty and I need to lie down… just take me home”

Liu Kang motioned for him to be still…

He knew that outburst from his dantian really sapped out his little strength in his body..

He needs to quickly go back and rest and find out what is going on in his body…

Fan Kang nodded and carried him on his back without complaint, moving swiftly through the street of Stormfall Town with only the sound of rumbling thunder that matches the pace of Fan Kang..

Every pace he took sent a jolt of pain in the body of Liu Kang but he had to endure it as he had to focus on the strange new sensation on his broken dantian..

The lightning bead..

He could feel the pulse of lightning that was flickering inside the bead, slow but weak as it drew world Qi towards the bead even though his meridian has been crippled for years..

“You really scared me back then bro” fan Kang spoke with worry as he kept running..

“When I saw that bastard Lin Han was about to hit you, my mind exploded if I had been seconds late”

Fan Kang panicked when he thought about that with a flicker of anger across his eyes…

Liu Kang smiled faintly..

“Is fine, you came at the right time.. that flame punch of yours seems to have gotten stronger… ninth stage of the Body Tempering Realm. You already at the peak of the Body Tempering Realm”

Liu Kang sighed with amazement..

“you are really a monster at such age”

Fan Kang chuckled, but his tone quickly turned serious. “Strength means nothing if I can’t protect my own brother. Father will be furious when he hears what happened today. Lin Han has gone too far this time.”

Liu Kang remained silent.. he didn't want to cause trouble for the Kang family.. from the memory he inherited, the Kang clan is just a medium sized force in storm fall town..

The Han family have more resources and stronger connections. Starting an open conflict will not be wise..

Soon, the familiar gates of the Kang household appeared. The guards recognized Fan Kang immediately and opened the gates without any question, especially when they saw the young Master that Fan Kang carried ..

He quickly took Liu Kang straight to his courtyard, ignoring the curious and pitying glances from the servants and clan members as they passed.

Inside Liu Kang Courtyard, Fan Kang slowly put Liu Kang down on the bed..

“Rest well bro, I will get the family alchemist and also inform father about your situation”

Fan Kang spoke slowly as he turned to leave.

But Liu Kang slowly held him back…

“Can you do me a favor and keep this from Father for now.. you know he is going through alot…. I..need some time alone first.. please”

Liu Kang raised his eyes and looked pitiful at Fan Kang..

Fan Kang frowned slightly but slowly nooded his head and he spoke softly…

“Alright. But if anything feels wrong, shout for me immediately. I’ll be right outside.”

After Fan Kang left and closed the door, Liu Kang finally let out a long breath. He sat up with great effort and crossed his legs into a meditation position.

He closed his eyes and directed his consciousness inward, toward his dantian.

What he saw shocked him deeply…

Where there should be nothing but ruins, a small, glowing lightning seed floated silently. It was the size of a bean seed, yet it emitted an ancient and destructive aura.

Tiny arcs of electricity danced around it, slowly repairing his broken meridians bit by bit.

“This..this shouldn't be normal right?” Liu Kang muttered to himself..

In his previous life he was struck by lightning and died but it seems the lightning has followed him back to this world given me this seed…

As if responding to his thoughts, the lightning seed suddenly pulsed brightly.

A surge of pure lightning attributed Qi flooded into his body. For the first time in this new life, Liu Kang felt real power flowing through him ,weak, but genuine.

A sharp pain followed, making him moan with pain ..His body was still too weak to handle much of this energy.

“I need to find a way to nourish this lighting seed and repair my dantian completely”

Liu Kang mummured “if I can do that before the city genius tournament in three months”

A cold glint flashed pass through his eyes…

He was no longer the weak, pitiful young master everyone looked down on. The fisherman who had fought the cruel sea for survival in his previous life had now been reborn in a world where strength is only respected and the strong prey on the weak…

“I refuse to be trash any longer.”

Outside the room, Fan Kang stood guard with a determined expression. Unknown to him that something miraculous is happening to Liu Kang, the lightning seed continued to grow, quietly preparing for the storm that was about to come.
