"They killed my wife and son," Lian Hua said, breaking the deadly silence. He glanced down at Xia and somehow controlled his tears. "I—I wanted revenge. They brutally murdered my son, how could I let them live," he whispered sadly.A small sob escaped Xia's mouth. He hid his face with his sleeve and tried controlling his emotions."Xia, are you okay?" Lian Hua whispered in a worried tone."I—I am fine. Something fell in my eyes," Xia turned around revealing his red eyes. To make his lie believable, he also rubbed his eyes red.Seeing this, Long felt his heart ache. He rushed over to his lover and hugged his shoulder and pulled him closer. "I'll help you," Long whispered softly, blowing onto his eyes. "Don't cry, baby," he whispered close to his ears that only they both could hear.Xia nodded, wiping his eyes rapidly.Convinced by his lies, Lian Hua continued his story. He was animatedly talking about his late wife, about their adventurous travels in the human realm.Xia listened to a
The bubble slowly sank down into the ocean. Bright blue light cascaded down through the shiny ice. Feng was fascinated looking at the sight.Even Bai Wren, who was wailing loudly, went quiet, glancing at the sight around with a curious gaze.“Bai look around you. we are in the ocean. Its daddy’s home,” he gently kissed the top of his small head.Bai Wren cooed and waved his hands around.“It will be so fascinating down there. Wait, do you think he can see like an aquatic beast?” he glanced at his mate.Feng just shrugged. “don’t know. Maybe he can. All I can see is darkness down below. Somehow, it’s quite terrifying…”“it’s not like my old home. The sun doesn’t reach down to the floor. Its dark and cold.. I kind of did not like it. But the sight of the aquatic beings down here is really spectacular,” Wren gently coddled Bai. “You are really going to like it,”As the bubble sank even lower, they all were surrounded by complete darkness. The coldness here was so elevated that even insid
Bai Wren was the hero of the moment. The whole family was gushing over him. Even his upright brother Ren was happily making childish reactions to make him laugh.Sitting on the couch, Wren silently laughed at this.“Stop laughing,” Feng subtly pinched his thigh. “They really love him…”“I know… but it’s kind of too much. Look at my silly second brother,” he gestured to Diago, who was literally rolling around on the ground shouting for Bai Wren to look.Feng chuckled. “They are adorable…” his smile seemed slightly awkward.Wren gave him a questioning look.“it’s just… I have never had brothers before. only Mu Zheng… its really nice to see a happy family,” he whispered ever so softly.Wren pulled him close and gently kissed the top of his head. “You are part of this family now. This is your family. They not only love Bai Wren, they love you too. You will see it in a few days.”Feng subtly wiped at his eyes. The last time he was with this family he was in his bird form and did not conver
Time passed but the icy north did not change. All year around the place was covered on transparent diamond-like ice crystals and the city remained unchanged.In the familiar household, Wren hurriedly searched through the cupboard. “I can’t find him,” he said in panic.“I didn’t find him here either. Oh god,” Feng panicked even more. ‘did you search under the bed?”“I did, I even searched the cabinets! He is not here!” Wren mumbled, biting his fingernails. “Do you think someone kidnapped him?”Feng went around searching for any clues. Their house did not have signs of break in. “I don’t think so. Do you think your mum came around and picked him up?”“It might be possible. let’s head to mum’s house,” he rushed out of the house. Just opposite to them was Hachin’s and Hua Roo’s place. Their door was closed. Most likely hau roo and Hachin had gone somewhere.“Come on, why are you just blanking there?!” Feng shouted.“Coming,” Wren swam after him.It has been one year since Bai Wren was bor
City of rene. Two years had passed since the battle and the once city that was in ruins was starting to come back alive. A particular house in the city was full of festivity. Red lanterns hung all over their walls and the whole place was decorated with red.A figure was seen running into the house cheerfully. She dodged her mother and her chiding relatives to run into a room inside the huge, newly built mansion.“Camilla? Did you run over here? Come sit,” Mu Zheng pulled her to the corner and made her sit on the bed. His red sleeves got caught under her.Camilla sat up freeing it. “I got something for you,” she handed the letter to him with an excited grin.“is it… is it from my master!” Mu Zheng excitedly picked it up and delicately opened it with a letter opener. His excited eyes skimmed through its content. “young master had his first crush. Aww, so cute. Young master Bai wren escaped out of their house and went to his crushes house. Isn’t that cute~” he cooed hugging the letter ti
Mu Zheng hugged Xu Da Ping tightly. This day was their wedding day but also their death day. Heh was sure of that. The last time a person of this cultivation invaded rene the elders were able to keep them busy and wren took them out.But this time they had no one. With Xu Da Ping’s cultivation if he tried to engage this man it was definite death.But his husband will not stand back and let anything happen to the Atul clan. He would fight back.Soo Mu Zheng decoded it was apt to die together. After all the oath has been taken. He will forever live and die with him.He felt Xu Da Ping’s body stiffen.“I won’t leave. Even if you beat me or scold me, I won’t leave. I’ll die with you. I don’t wish to live without you!” he shouted, hugging his waist tightly.Glancing up, he noticed that Xu Da Ping looked very distracted as he glanced up.Mu Zheng tightly pinched Xu Da Ping’s waist. ‘Why is he looking at him in that dazed state, huh!’The figure who was glowing a dark shade of golden, became
Wang Bushen listened to the tales the young man had to say about his son. Wren who was just a hundred years old met his mate feng when he was on a mission to save his friend. Sounded like his son fell in love instantly but both parties did not know they were each others mates.Soo their romance was very slow.“it’s true love. I’m happy he met the person who loves him with all his heart,” he whispered holding the letter tenderly.“Did you get any clue where he is?” Mu Zheng whispered softly. “I wish to meet my master too but he is not disclosing their location. my god son is almost two I wish to see him once so that he can remember my face well. He is my future young master I serve after all,” he mumbled with a sad sigh.“This letter… I smell sea water and cold spiritual energy. You said my son was raised on the oyster clan right. They are most likely in the northern cavern. It’s said to be cold throughout the year. The oyster clan elders rest there to cultivate.” He whispered, caressi
Bai Wren silently sat on the small swing his uncle had built for him, shaking his leg. Today was the same as any day. The water was cold, and the ice was shining like diamonds. He had nothing much to do.His scalding red eyes fell on the young oyster kids who were paying around cheerfully. They were the two-year-old school of oysters.The oyster clan separated them by their age to make it easy to train them.He once again took a look. Their white hair almost made them look so identical to each other. Some of them tripped and fell on the icy ocean floor and some of them floated around happily giggling.They were the same age, but the difference in their intelligence level was…. Astounding.Looking at all this Bai Wren sighed. “why did I have to be so intelligent,”“Bai~ Bai~” a small voice called out to him/ he glanced to his left to see a small squid.Startled he fell off his swing landing on his butt.“hahaha why are you scared of it. Inst it cute?” a cute voice whispered waving the
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
