As Jaden walked towards the entrance, One of the guards stopped him and asked, " Halt, Who are you and for what purpose have you come here".
Jaden smiled and replied," Bruce, don't tell me you forget your Young Clan Master. It's me Jaden, Jaden Shiba".
Hearing Jaden's reply the young guard burst with anger," Don't speak nonsense, Young Master Jaden fell to his death from the cliff, how can you be him. Get out of here or the consequences will be dire for you".
The older guard was cool headed, " Young Man, don't cause trouble here. Do you know our Clan Master had been in grief for months because of the loss of his precious son. Young Master may not have been a cultivator but he was a good and bright child. He had suffered from various issues despite being the son of our Clan Head. Now that he is gone please don't slander his name, Just go and we will forget that this conversation never happened".
Hearing the warning of the old guard, Jaden was surprised, because according to the memories this guard knew the original Jaden. He was one of the few people in the Shiba Clan who didn't look down upon him. He even helped Jaden many times. So, he was quite surprised to hear the warning from the old guard.
The reason due to which the Old guard wasn't able to identify Jaden was because of the change his body underwent due to Rainbow Elixir and Rage God Body Transformation Technique. The body of previous Jaden was weaker than even normal humans. But the person standing in front of the old guard was a strong build man with a powerful cultivation, while the previous Jaden was a cripple who couldn't even cultivate the basic fist technique of Shiba Clan.
"Please try to understand, Uncle Ducard. I am the real Jaden. Do you remember when I was 7 year old, you saved me from those Clan kids who used to bully me. You even bought a hundred years old ginseng when I got ill and my father was away from the clan and nobody helped me. And even if you don't believe me you must recognise this, right?", Jaden tried to explain to the old guard and at last showed him the Clan Medallion of Young Master of Shiba Clan. This was only given to the young master of a clan, nobody can fabricate it because it was infused with the Spiritual Mark of the Clan Head.
Hearing his name from Jaden and seeing the medallion, the old guard finally believed Jaden. After carefully checking Jaden, he saw the resemblance this young man had with the previous picture of Jaden in his mind. " Y.. Young Master, how did this happen? You have changed so much in just a few months not only that but you are a cultivator now. Master will be very happy to hear that not only you are alive but you even become a cultivator.
Ducard got emotional and hugged Jaden tightly as his eyes got wet with tears. This man has only been watching over Jaden since he was a kid, so he has a special affection for Jaden. The previous Jaden also saw Ducard as his Uncle.
When the young guard saw the interaction between them and how Ducard got emotional. He understood that the young man standing in front of him was the real Jaden Shiba, the young master of Shiba Clan. He quickly greeted him and also apologized,"Greetings Young Master and please forgive me for my rude behaviour".
"No, it's Ok. You were just doing your job. You must be newly appointed for this post right. I can understand your situation even Uncle Ducard wasn't able to recognise me so it's not your fault. By the way what's your name"
The young guard sighed in relief and replied, " It's Henry Shiba, Young Master".
"Young Master, let's not waste any more time. Let's go inside, I am sure Master would be very happy to see you", Releasing Jaden he gripped his hand and nearly dragged him from the main gate.
“Alright let's go", Jaden just let Ducard guide him and helplessly followed him.
