Dragon King of Apocalypse

Chapter 176: Eastsea Farewell

The sun penetrated through the window of the room, and a ray of light fell onto a blue hair woman, who was sleeping.

"Bright."Mutter Xu Xiaoyan as her expression began to contort from the ray of light hitting her face, even though she was feeling warm and comfortable.

Slowly opening her eyes and then beginning to get up from the bed. She started feeling something was wrong, as she subconsciously reached out her hand and touched a muscular figure.

'Oh.' Thought Xu Xiaoyan with a light blush as she saw Wulin sleeping next to her. It didn't' take long for her memories of last night to come rushing back before she quickly shook her head.

Quickly the memories began fading away, with the warmth and comfort of those strong arms wrapping around her. Xu Xiaoyan's face was red but knowing she had to leave before certain people woke up.

She got up from the bed but not before quickly pecking Wulin on the cheek before leaving and going downstairs. Luckily, no one was up yet and so she quickly made her self some tea before going outside.

A few minutes passed with her drinking the tea while gazing at the fragrant flowers that were moving back forth in their garden. While she was enjoying this sight, her spiritual sense and hearing pick up the sound of her mother coming downstairs.

"You're up early. Usually, we would have to get someone to wake you up or make a lot of noise to wake you up."Said Qin Yun with a light giggle as she came sitting down next to her daughter with a cup of tea in her hand.

Xu Xiaoyan only pouted, as after going to Eastsea Academy and becoming Wu Zhankong student, she wasn't allowed to oversleep. If she did, he would force her to run extra laps with more weights than usual.

Combine that with the fact, she had to do training with Wulin last night. It wasn't hard for Xu Xiaoyan to get used to waking up early or face the horrific consequences.

"Well anyway, here some news." Said Qin Yun while not knowing her cute daughter's little dilemma or the pain she went through.

"Big brother is at Heaven Spirit City!" Shouted Xu Xiaoyan as her eyes widen at her mother after hearing the news.

"Yes. He and few of our other clan's mate went towards that city, to go and help out." Said Qin Yun with a cheerful smile as she gazes at her adorable daughter and her boyfriend.

"...He actually volunteered?"Questioned Xu Xiaoyan with a raised brow.

Xu Xiaoyan knew her big brother very well. He wasn't the type to actually go out of his way to help the normal people or mortals in his own way. He would rather spend time flirting with another girl or cultivating.

With all of the memories she had of him, she couldn't picture or see him as a person who would willingly help. As if she knew what Xu Xiaoyun was thinking, Qin Yun simply giggle and began rubbing her daugther head.

"Well, he didn't volunteer per se."

"...You force him, didn't you?"Questioned Xu Xiaoyan with her lips twitching and then sighing when she saw her mom smile widening even further.

"He needs to learn some humility. I honestly don't understand, how he could be so arrogant." Said Xu Xiao as he walked into the living room.

'Isn't that because of the high expectation you have him.' Thought Xu Xiaoyan with a sigh, as she begins to understand how hard it must have been for her brother.

From being constantly berated by their father to always being compared to her. Xu Xiaoyan sometimes wonders how her brother never held any resentment for her, even after hearing she got into Shrek and he didn't.

'I haven't seen or talked to him in over two years.' Thought Xu Xiaoyan as she began to feel her heart slightly constricting.

It was indeed hard to find some time to find and make time for family back here in Eastsea City. The amount of time she contacted them was less than twenty times during her whole stay at Shrek. And most of the time, she talked with her mom, rarely did she talk with her dad or brother.

"So what are you going to do now?" Questioned Qin Yun causing Xu Xiaoyan to be drawn out of her thoughts.

"I'm going to go visit him." Said Xu Xiaoyan after some thought.

"My obedient daughter, you don't have to visit that wa-"

"Quiet dear." Said Qin Yun in a deadly tone causing Xu Xiao to flinch and fall silent. Qin Yun shook her head at her headstrong husband before caressing her daughter's cheek.

"It makes me happy you are willing to visit him. I'm sure he misses you, more than you miss him."Said Qin Yun.

"I know..."Mutter Xu Xiaoyan as she once again recalls the last time she had talked to her brother.

"Still, I should at least see how much you have grown. Go and call the boys over so we all can have a spar."Said Xu Xiao as he wanted to see the progress of his daughter and her friends.

Xu Xiaoyan blinks her eyes before slightly narrowing them in thought and then smiling radiantly at her father. Xu Xiao instantly felt chills on his back causing him to glance at Qin Yun but she was still drinking her tea.

'...So where did that sense of chills come from.' Thought Xu Xiao in confusion.

"Don't worry dad. I can handle myself."Said Xu Xiaoyan with a lovely smile, causing the chills on Xu Xiao to increase and for him to become even more confused.

'...I guess Shrek wouldn't allow her to be completely defenseless.' Thought Xu Xiao as he stared at his daughter in contemplation.

He would be a fool to not notice or sense the changes in his daughter over the year. Even if they barely talked over the years, as her father, he could still notice these small details.

He could already tell that his shy and spoiled daughter has grown up and was becoming a true soul master.

From the change in her demeanor to the almost predator like pressure she was oozing off as she stared at him.

'I wonder if she notices these changes too?' Thought Xu Xiao while silently praising Shrek for their ability to transform people into masters.

Of course, if he knew the true reason for her change, he wouldn't be so appreciative. Especially, considering Xu Xiaoyan had to go through years of 'Training.'

"Oh! Let me be the ref."Said Qin Yun with her eyes sparkling as she hastily put down her tea and went toward the middle of the courtyard.

"Are you guys ready?" Questioned Qin Yun as she glanced at both Xu Xiao and Xu Xiaoyan after a few minutes had passed.

"Ready!"

"Go." Shouted Qin Yun as she quickly steps away, so she didn't get caught in their little spar.

Xu Xiao instantly summoned his Ice Staff, which was the martial spirit of the Xu Family. Most if not all that are born in the Xu family, will awaken the Ice Staff. Of course, unless they had a twin martial spirit or if the other martial spirit passed down is stronger.

'She should be using the Ice Staff-' Thought Xu Xiao as he saw his daughter summoned her own martial spirit but then his face change.

'What! Which Martial Spirit is that! Did her Star Ice Wheel change!' Thought Xu Xiao in shock as he saw the different martial spirit of his daughter.

He then felt an even severe number of chills as she saw his daughter's eyes narrowed towards him, with a hint of coldness in them.

#

After the miserable defeat of Xu Xiao, who came to know the deadliness and ferocity of his daughter that he hasn't seen in years.

They began planning what to do for the new few days.

For the next few days, Xu Xiaoyan began spending time with the whole Xu Family. She went through the garden with her mom, went towards the auction with her and even visited the old plays that they used to go to as a family.

With her father, she reluctantly followed him into their clan meeting. She could immediately tell he wanted her to get used to the clan politics. While she wouldn't normally allow him to drag her into this, she decided to just give him this.

Other than this, he would spoil her rotten with anything she wanted. He would go through the whole Eastsea city and buy all of the treasure herbs in the market.

The auctions weren't safe either, as he would proceed to buy tons of pills for her. Then he would go to all of the food places and restaurants that he used to spoil her at.

While this was going on, Tang Wulin and Xu Lizhi were using the courtyard of the Xu Family. Qin Yun had the maids and butler of the house there tend to all of their needs. During the time that Xu Xiaoyan spent time with her family, they were training their destruction energy.

They didn't do anything serious, as to not cause damage to the courtyard. The did basic energy manipulation and control training. They didn't raise any complaint, as they knew that Xu Xiaoyan really wanted to spend time with her family.

In a flash, a week passed before they began to set out. But not before Xu Xiaoyan change her clothing and redone her hairstyle from the insistence of her mom. Her light blue hair was no longer done in twin tails but was now made into a long braid that went all the way down to her waist.

Her dress was now a light blue one that stops near her knees, with blue and white stockings going all the way down. Combine with her new hairstyle, she looked even more beautiful and stunning than before.

With Qin Yun commenting how much she has grown and her dad embarrassing her even more. Yet all this did nothing to stop the inevitable farewell for the family of Xu.

There were tears and sadness as the people of the Xu Family were saying goodbye to their precious princess. Qin Yun had to hold back her husband who was having second thoughts of allowing Xu Xiaoyan to leave.

Part of it was because of the fact that she only stayed with them for a week and the fact that the Calamities were still around. He feared the chance of it showing up, on their way to Heaven Spirit City and it attacking them.

Either way, Tang Wulin, Xu Lizhi, and Xu Xiaoyan were on their way towards their new destination, Heaven Spirit City.

"Are you guys sure your ok with this?" Questioned Xu Xiaoyan.

"It's fine. It has been years since you last saw your big brother, I'm sure he missed you too. We can make a detour to see him."Said Xu Lizhi while driving the car they were gifted from the Xu Family.

Tang Wulin didn't say anything as he was looking through the window. But he did move his hand to squeeze Xu Xiaoyan's hand causing her to lightly smile.

"Your whole family really loves you."Said Xu Lizhi as he recalled all of the maids and butlers were crying as they were getting ready to leave.

"Yea...They were the ones who would raise me when mom and dad were out of the city. All of them would put up with my constant mayhem and mischievous."Siad Xu Xiaoyan lightly as she began recalling them together.

It was truly a time filled with no worries or problems. A place and time, where she felt that nothing could go wrong.
