Feng re-read the letter once again, confirming the situation. Finally, he let out a deep breath. “they are in Rene. The kids are in Rene.” He hugged Wren tightly.His pounding heart finally slowed. All these twenty days he had ben unable to sleep, unable to even operate thinking without their missing kids. It was torture. he had never experienced feeling this way again.The feeling he had been repressing all came out.Letting out a silent sob, he buried his face in his mate’s chest.“ohh, darling. Why are you crying..”“I was so sacred…” Feng sniffled. “I have never felt this way before. Its.. it’s not a good feeling at all.”“shh everything is over now. Bai and wen are safe.. they are in good hands. So let’s calm down a bit.” Wren gently cupped hie face and kissed him.Feng shook his head, sobbing even louder. “he cried. Mumu said he cried. He has never cried in his life before… I…. I feel like I did something wrong. Did we constrict him too much Wren. I feel like we were in the way
Days passed, Bai and Wen stayed with the Atul clan spending their days leisurely. But it was not fun and games. The Atul family had five elders amongst them.The five elders who looked like twenty or some young men always found time to spend with Bai and Wen.They spend hours telling Galant stories about his so-called grandfather.That was exactly what was happening right now as well.Bai slowly dozed off listening to the boring tales of war and battle. His dazed eyes started to dull out and the old elder sitting in front of him looked like a blurred-out painting.A soft pinch awakened him immediately.Besides him, Wen Ro sat there innocently pinching his arm.Bai glared at him.“don’t sleep. It’s disrespectful,”Bai rolled his eyes. “I’m tired.” he whispered under his breath.The old elder who was talking suddenly paused. “Am I boring you, young master. Sorry it’s my fault. I have been asleep for so long so I tend to rail off my stories. I.. I just want you to think positively of you
Xu da Ping and Mu Zheng started to prepare for their journey. They wrote to feng and even got permission to take the kids on this trip to their surprise feng was more than happy to allow it.Wen Ro who was done packing his stuff glanced at Bai who was sitting still. “are you done packing? Do you need help?”“no…” he dejectedly glanced at his hands.“Why are you still upset? I thought you would be happy to see your grandfather now….” Wen hopped up on the bed beside him. “ but I didn’t like the way you tricked uncle xu though. They both are very sweet. You were super worried about yourself,”Bai glanced at him with a frown. initially, when he was caught by uncle Mu he was planning on using his acting and trick them into taking him to his grandpa but all plans changed when was scolded. he was genuinely upset. After reading his mum’s heartbroken letter he was even more heartfelt. All the thoughts about his initial trickery were gone.He was genuinely down for the days he spent here in atu
"NO!!!" Mu Zheng stabbed the icy wall to his dismay his dagger broke into shards just like a piece of ice would.Through the foggy layer, he anxiously glanced as the white-haired man move closer."don't you dare touch them!!! Xu!! Oh my god…." He started to bang the ice with his fists. The pricky edge tore through his skin leaving behind bloody lesions.He did not bother though he continued banging in hopes that the wall of ice would melt.The white-haired man glanced at him through the glass with his head tilted."hey, you fucker! Don't do anything to them. You want money. I have money I can give you whatever you want just… just don't hurt them.. please.. I beg of you… please…." He leaned his head on the icy layer. "Please… don't.. don't do anything to them."Though all the shouting and screaming Bai Wren woke up. he dazedly glanced at the white-haired man standing over him. There was a white film-like spiritual layer around that man, making him look ethereal. He looked like an angel
On the ship, Mu Zheng struggled to get out of the ice that had frozen the lower half of his body. His heart was anxious. That man jumped right after the kids were off. He also feared that Bai Wren might not be aware of how to use the safety net. It was shaped like a ball initially but infused with a bit of spiritual energy it will spread like a huge net and safely capture them even if they were falling from a great height.“shit…” he grumbled trying to free his hand/“Mumu don’t move. Wait a bit.” Xu Da Ping gestured for him to stop struggling. “don’t break your hand. I’m almost free,” he whispered.Soon his hands were seen poking out. There was a small red flaming dagger in hand. Slowly, he cut the ice, and he jumped down. Hurriedly, he ran to his mate and freed him as well.“Hurry we have to get to them before that man does anything!” Mu Zheng grabbed his hand.They both jumped off with the safety net in hand.From this height, they were only able to spot the tree figures like a sma
Bai stood there frozen. He still could not believe that his grandfather did all this. He hesitantly walked into the blood-stained corridor of the house. There was nothing inside except the stench of blood. No corpses, no clothes… nothing.It was similar to a house that had been hurriedly emptied.“maybe they all left…. Maybe it’s not human blood. Who knows this town might have gotten some type of plague. I heard that humans abandon towns for that reason,” he said, trying to think logically.Mu Zheng sighed. He gently patted his shoulders. “We have to go back home Bai…”“Why?! We have yet to meet him! why must we go back? He didn’t do this. I’m sure of it! He would not!” he shook his head completely in disbelief.He knew that his grandfather had a bone to pick with this minister involved in the death of his grandma, but his intuition told him he would not be cruel enough to kill off an entire town. That was too brutal. It did not sound like his grandfather.“Bai be good. We have to go
The four of them settled down in the outskirts of the town with a simple tent. On the outside it looked like a small survival tent but on the inside, it was very luxurious and had two rooms with a full-size bed.Mu Zheng first settled down the kids. Bai Wren was more than willing to bury himself in the bed sheets while Wen Ro hugged him tightly. They both seemed to be in a low mood.Mu Zheng did not know how to comfort them. He gently covered them with a fluffy blanket and walked out.The rain was pouring down, making a loud pitter patter sound when it hit the outer leather layer of the tent. It was loud, but very calming.Mu Zheng sat down next to his mate on the bed. “why did you make us stay? It’s better to leave.”“you know why I did it right?”“I know. How could I not know? the heavenly emperor was right behind us following us like a lost puppy. how could I not sense him?” he nudged his shoulders. “But I still think it a wrong decision to stay.”“Why?” Xu Da Ping frowned. “Bai wa
The underwater city was bustling with sea creatures running about and cheerfully conversing. Some young men and woman decorated their hair with barnacles and kelp, making their white hair stand out even more.In a certain stall, a young man in white stood, carefully selecting his hair accessory."this one will look beautiful on you young Hachin," the shopkeeper clam happily whispered rubbing his hands together.The fairy like boy chuckled, hiding his face with a fan. "That's too kind of you sir, I think that red ruby is too flashy on me,""No, no, it will look so beautiful complementing your beautiful red iris," the shopkeeper further added until the young man was convinced. His jade like hands reached for the huge red ruby barnacle pin but another pale hand beat him to it."It will be taking this, sir," a cheerful voice happily said.Hachin glanced at him with a frown. "Qu Wren, why are you trying to steal what's mine," he shouted with a slight frown."Eh, but you didn't buy it yet,
Long Ki softly sobbed. "Raijin, my brother. Have I lost you forever? Why won't you reply? Are you angry with me because I broke our seal? I broke it because I want you to be by my side as an equal nit as a servant or as a slave. So please, come back my friend." His words ended up in a loud sob as he watched the blank-looking wolf.He slowly stumbled closer. "Raijin…..please…please answer me? Please, I beg of you," he whispered softly.The grey wolf stepped back and suddenly growled at him."It's going to be okay, my friend, I will save you," Long Ki whispered with his hands outstretched, his spiritual powers flowed out like a soft stream towards the wolf.Raijin became quiet, wary of it and evaded it. He jumped high and low, but Long Ki spiritual energy flowed behind him like a little tail. Frustrated, it jumped down from the building and changed towards the red dragon.
All of a sudden, the Grey wolf's bones cracked."What is going one?" Felia shouted.Long Ki laughed. "He is changing…he is changing back,"Slowly but surely, Raijin's human form was returning. His fluffy tail retracted to form a small spine. His snout snapped back into his nose and mouth and all his hair. It just disappeared.Raijin stood naked, blinking at them. "Im back?" he glanced down at his hands again. Felia in his arms glanced up and softly kissed his cheeks. "Yes, you are…you are back! Oh, I was so worried. Raijin, I won't leave you ever again, I promise." She cried, hugging him tightly."ow," he softly groaned."What is wrong?" Felia pulled him farther and peered at him. His stomach was badly wounded and was bleeding profusely. "Oh my god, what to do? You need medicine. I will bring you medicine," she shouted frantically.
"This can't be. Ki can't be dead!" Yukiya shook her head in disbelief. The little red egg that was rolling around in the corner jumped over to her and nudged her."no...something is wrong…. I have to see for myself," she mumbled and shot out of the watering hole. For a second she couldn't breathe. She panted, lying on the ground. The little red egg nudged her hands worriedly.'I have to breathe…I have to change,' she thought as she pulled herself up by her forearm. Her gills were not adaptable to breathe out of water and was suffocating her.She gasped as he crawled through the floor. The red egg worriedly followed behind her.Yukiya held the egg close safely in her embrace, "its….it's okay....I'm..fine," she gasped as her breath came out in pants. Slowly her gills fully closed up, letting a layer of flesh grow on it.Losing her gills, she was f
"Yukiya…what are you doing here? Are you hurt anywhere?" Long Ki pulled his stunned wife and checked her all over. She did not have any wounds, but her tears kept rolling down her face. He gently wiped them away and kissed her red eyes. "What is it, dear? Why are you crying? Did anyone bully you?""You…you did. You bullied me," Yukiya sobbed out loud and jumped into his embrace."Huh? But I didn't bully you though," Long Ki mumbled, soothingly caressing her head. 'why did she have such an absurd thought?' he thought as he softly hugged her trembling shoulders. On her back, he felt something vibrating violently. "What's in your bag?"Yukiya pulled her head from his chest and sniffed loudly. "It's our child…" she said guiltily."you brought our child here. Yukiya, what were you thinking," Long Ki swiftly pulled the bag from her shoulders and carefully cupped the incub
Bright light.....that was Xia's initial thought as he woke up. He slowly blinked open his tired eyes. Unfamiliar ceiling was what he first noticed. "A different inn?" he softly mumbled as he sat up, supporting his weight. The window next to him was side open, letting in bright sunlight. "When did I lose consciousness though?"After he dropped off Felia and Farah he swiftly jumped over roof and got to the spot. From his vantage point, all he could see was dust and flames. Xia frowned. He was not able to see Long Aotian anywhere. He was about to jump down when all of a sudden he lost consciousness.Xia scratched his head, trying to remember more. "Why did I faint like that? Was I drugged?" he sniffed her small red clothes but there was a residual scent on him, only that strong perfume was left behind. "Then, maybe our inn was destroyed in the struggle," he whispered. He slowly woke up, changed his clothes and walked out of the do
"LET ME OUT!" Yukiya shouted once again. The ghoul outside sighed. "Young miss, I can't deactivate this shield. Only your man can do that. Please don't make me repeat myself," he whispered kindly."Repeat my ass. You bullshit. Open this right now or call that bastard here I will knock some sense into him," Yukiya glare at him.The ghoul sighed deeply. "I'm helpless. Even I'm not sure where he is,'"Then go find him. I need him here right now. How dare that bastard trap me here?""But he did it for your own safety,""Safety? I don't need that. I'm a sky level cultivator. It's not like I'm useless fiddle. I can take care of myself VERY WELL," Yukiya shouted, banging the shield loudly. All of a sudden she felt something soft nudge her leg. She glanced down to see her little egg nudging her softly. She picked him up and caressed his dry surface. "Baby, it's time to g ba
Yukiya sighed. It had already been twenty-four hours since they had left them. Night had come and gone, and she was still stuck inside the shield. She tapped on it and sighed. "This is so annoying. So you know? I used to set up a shield just like this for my son whenever I leave town. I thought it would keep him safe but.....now that I'm experiencing it. It feels like a prison.""No one will have such a fancy prison life," the ghoul softly said, gesturing to the half bit peach in her hand.Yukiya scoffed and took another bite out of the juicy fruit, "how is this fancy? It's a necessity. I'm the mother of his child, of course he has to provide for me. That bastard, just talking about him brings a bad taste in my mouth" she tossed the peach pit and stomped on it. The Little egg pitifully nudging her leg again and again without any rest. The red core of the egg silently watched the remaining peach in her hand. "This..You can't eat
Two hours..... For bloody two hours Xia had to act like he was asleep. The worse was that the scar faced man already knew he was awake, yet he was doing 'this and that' with Hua Jung right next to him. Xia silently bit the duvet, holding back his tears. 'Long, I'm being bullied. My poor ears have been assaulted by their torturous act. Darn it when will they leave I have to enter the pearl space,'He heard a low moan next to him. He silently held back his tears of agony. 'my poor dragon soul, I think I understand your pain now only.'Soon enough she heard soft snores. 'Is it over? Is it done?'"Enough acting. Go to sleep for really this time. Staying up too late is not good for you," the scar faced man said with a smile on his face.Xia peaked out and glared at him. "Why didn't you leave? My poor ears are bleeding,""Then put some medicine on it." he laughed so
The six followed after the nimble spider. It darted through many small crevices and small hole, but still they were able to easily follow along. It rushed past the streets and entered the docks. Only a huge ship was docked right in front of the planks."Xia...he must be in there," Aotian cheerfully rushed over. But the spider stepped shyly away from the boat. It moved side by side and tried to jump on it.With his sword, Aotian gently lifted it and placed it on the boat sides. It crawled up and into it.They all followed it in. But the spider did not go down the deck, rather it ran across and climbed on the other side of the wooden boat. It anxiously moved side to side anxiously glancing at the open ocean.Long Ki stepped forward and held onto his brother's shoulders. "Xiao Tian, it looks like your lover was taken away through sea,"Aotian growled at him and swiftly
