Rise of the White Dragon

- April 9th, 6:30 am -

"Mother-in-law," in the kitchen, Ingrid beside Maira said with a pout, "can you believe that after all this time, Luan said he doesn't love me anymore..."

From the living room, Luan heard what Ingrid said. He stopped what he was doing and said, "I didn't say that!" He added, "I said we can't have a baby right now."

"It's the same thing!" Ingrid snapped.

Maira initially thought it would be something serious. Not that the matter was not serious, but that they had actually fought, but knowing what this was all about, she laughed a little and was happy that Ingrid wanted to give her a grandchild, but she was smart and also knew the risks of having a child in the current times.

"Luan convinced you not to have one yet?" Maira asked with interest.

"Yes, he's a pain in the ass, but he's right though. I'm going to be strong, strong enough for him not to have any more excuses!" Ingrid said with a brave and spirited look.

Maira smiled graciously and nodded, "Yes, if you are strong, you don't need to worry and you can have a baby."

"I know what to do!" Ingrid said even more confidently. She was determined to train even more. She could also feel the increase of Qi in the air, which suggested that it would be faster to at least strengthen her Qi. As for her body, it would be a little different, but still, she was confident.

Things might have stabilized in Brazil, but it was simply the calm before a storm. With this turbulent time almost no one went to the company to work, and those who had were returned home. Luan asked everyone to go to the living room, and once everyone was gathered, he started talking.

"As everyone is already aware we bought an island, and now is a good time to start using it mainly to train and strengthen. Amanda and Monica should also come along as it would be dangerous for them to be alone." Luan looked at the mother-daughter pair.

Amanda was happy to hear this. "Thank you for your kindness," she smiled.

"Mother-in-law, you are part of the family. You don't need to thank me for something so small." Luan didn't know what to do when he saw that even after all the time that his mother-in-law had spent in his house, she still remained reserved with him.

"Is that so?" Amanda smiled awkwardly and said, "It might be difficult, but I'll try."

'Should I talk to Sebastian now and find out his intentions?' Luan pondered.

If he could, he would bring Sebastian to train on the island as well. It would be nice if he stayed strong, as it was almost confirmed that he would be Amanda's future husband.

Unfortunately, Luan didn't know what had happened to Sebastian in his previous life, so he only had the information recorded about him, but nothing too deep. However, Luan was confident he could help him after running some tests.

"Okay, just get a set of clean clothes and some towels. We're going to the island now," Luan said, "At the moment there are many monster corpses on the island, and because of that, the concentration of Qi there has increased to a frightening level."

It was possible that it had attracted sea monsters, but that was irrelevant, as they hadn't had enough time to evolve beyond the Third Order.

"Luan, in relation to the government..." Maira was not stupid. She noticed the government's movements; even on the internet there were traces of their hands trying to dirty their family's image, especially Luan's.

"Mom, honestly, I'm not even old enough to be president. They're worried about nothing. Of course, I could take the job by force, however, that's not what I want, but…" A calculating smile curved his lips and he said confidently, "Who do they think they are? They're scared of getting out of power, well then, I'm going to make my grandfather the president!"

"Oh, that's not a bad idea. No, it's actually brilliant!" Maira's eyes sparkled. If her father ruled Brazil, they didn't need to worry about being attacked by the government, and as the only marshal alive in Brazil, along with their support, the chances of him winning were enormous.

"Mm, I think Grandpa would make a good President. He hates corruption and doesn't care much about money. Since mother created the Dimas Corporation and now as one of the richest companies in the entire world, he hasn't even gone after a penny of it." Catharina said with a smile.

"Yeah, and now that he doesn't just have to isolate himself and live the last few days of his life calmly, he might as well shake things up again." Luan smiled.

"Hehe, I bet my dad wants to move his old bones now that he's become as strong as young people these days, if not stronger." Maira laughed as she remembered her father's recent feats.

"As for the game, is the tournament still going to happen?" Ingrid asked.

Luan looked at her and thought. "Yes, it will happen, but…" Among the pros and cons, Luan determined that it was better to happen. "It will be a little different, not the tournament itself, but the prizes. I decided that the top 100 will win the full technique, while the top three will get a special martial arts technique as well."

"I have nothing to comment on this as I think it's a good idea," Maira smiled.

"Okay, enough talking. Go get your things ready to go out," Luan said.

Minutes later, everyone was outside the mansion. Luan made clouds appear below his feet and began to float. Now that everyone knew he was the White Dragon, Luan didn't even bother to hide it. 

Instead of going straight to Ilha Grande, Luan went to get Elias and the rest.

"Luan, you have arrived," Elias said with baggage prepared.

"Mm, are you all ready?" Luan asked.

"Yeah!" All the people behind Elijah answered simultaneously.

The eyes of everyone in the group were looking at Luan like they were looking at a deity. His achievements are being talked about all over the world, especially in Brazil. Who wouldn't want such an amazing boss?

Despite feeling a little awkward at the look of the group, Luan ignored it and said, "Okay, we're leaving then. Hold on tight."

Then clouds appeared below their feet and they started floating in the clouds as well.
