45 Chapter 45
Qi trembled, the world burned as the ground was hot and dry, the sky seemed to be cracked, the world seemed to be trembling as a huge amount of tremors could be felt at times, the roars of forgotten ancient beings could be heard, all of them belonging to different powerful beasts but all of them had one thing in common...they were roars of despair
And now within this environment, a flame lit up within an unknown corner, the flame kept burning for a few more seconds before it disappeared leaving behind two children within the world of the unknown and death, for a moment the flame seemed to be protecting them as they were adjusted to the world they were brought too
Soon among them, Xiao's eyes opened, and just as he did his body felt heavy as he lunged a bit down trying to adjust to the gravity of the place he was in, the same time he felt like his body was burning up and repulsion built up within him, it was as if the Qi in the world was soo disgusting that his body was naturally rejecting it
It took a few moments for him to adjust but even then he felt like his body was burning, it was as his body was heavy seemingly deep within a liquid but soon he shook his body to get his focus, trying his best as he looked at the surrounding he was in and seeing it his face became serious, just the surrounding was enough for him to understand the situation, as he kept surveying his surroundings he turned back only to see Yun Yurou laying on the ground
"Yurou!"
Eyes wide open he rushed up to her as he checked up on her, his hand moved to her forehead only to recoil from the heat from her body, steam was rising from her body, meanwhile, a frown filled her face, seeing it Xiao could only grit his teeth in anger, he understood what was happening to her
Awakening, she was awakening her latent talent, not only that her Phoenix side seem to be dominating her human side, trying to make her whole, plus he could tell that The World Burning Phoenix power seemed to be rampaging through her and right now she needed to gain its recognition to be whole
'damn it! the situation isn't good at all'
Xiao could only curse The World Burning Phoenix in his heart, he knew that this was a trial, within the martial world more the more the danger the greater would be the reward, it was an equal exchange, only those with a hardened heart and a true martial heart will be able to move forward in the future and for that danger is imperative and right now Xiao's instincts were screaming danger
Xiao looked at the frowning face of Yun Yurou as he rubbed her face, his hand started to burn but he didn't mind it as he touched her face with a fond smile, this time it would be his chance to protect her and anybody that stands in that path would only have one ending...death
Xiao's eyes turned serious as he moved forward as he swiped Yun Yurou on a princess carry, his handheld her tightly while his body started to heat up, Xiao has a natural resistance to fire yet the heat from Yun Yurou was something else, resisting the heat Xiao eyes turned to his surrounding his cold eyes scanned the place for any significant threat
But all he could feel from this place was death and destruction, he didn't wait at his location as he started running with Yun Yurou in his arms, he looked around the place that seemed to be dying, each land was filled the broken ground and red sands, while heat rose from the ground, Xiao kept running with Yun Yurou in his arms until he saw a small cave, his eyes s
lit up as he ran towards the cave
He made sure that nobody else was close to him before he placed Yun Yurou safely to the ground, he accessed his storage ring as he made sure that Yun Yurou was completely comfortable, it was a bit difficult to control his Qi but after some practice, it was better, he smiled seeing that she was alright, the fight for her bloodline could only be fought by her there's nothing he could do to help her in that but for others things....
Thinking till here Xiao's eye turned cold and dark, he made a final check that all was right for Yun Yurou before he started to walk out of the cave, soon he placed a concealment array on the cave Yun Yurou was in but what he didn't see was that as he walked out Yun Yurou's eyes trembled and her hands seemed to have moved for a moment but it was too minuscule for Xiao to notice
Soon he set up all that was necessary to keep Yun Yurou safe, his worried mother had given him a lot of treasures to keep him safe, thankfully his storage ring seemed to work well even in this world or wherever he was, he placed his head on the boulder he used to cover the cave opening as he spoke
"Stay safe and I will be back"
And with that he turned back where he could see that from a distance some sort of creatures seemed to be running towards their place, it would seem that they were able to grasp their location and seemed to be hunting them, Xiao had never seen the creatures in front of him before, every one of them very different from each other
Some of them were just made of the tentacle, while some just had a big mouth as they keep floating toward him, Xiao even noticed one of them with two heads and 4 hands running towards him like they had no sentience, all of them had irregular shape but all of them seemed to have a never-ending hunger within their eyes as they ran towards him
Moreover, Xiao could keenly feel that their target was Yun Yurou, it was as if the fire and power within her was noticed buy these abominations, Xiao took a deep breath to control himself, he couldn't feel their cultivation but he did get the feeling that they were not much powerful then him, it would seem that the place they were conjured at was a low-level area
Currently, Xiao was within the QI refinement realm first stage, it was the speed at which he kept it, for now, Xiao took a deep breath as he controlled his breath, he kept his eyes shut for a few seconds before he opened them, calmness surrounded his face as a sword appeared on his right hand but that was not the end, another sword appeared in his left hand
Xiao was a dual sword wielder, this was a fact that even his mother didn't know, Xiao always used his right hand as he fought with the sword but truthfully Xiao was left-handed a fact that even his mother had forgotten, the temperature around Xiao arose as his eyes looked at his enemies
Unknown to him a deep black color flame that seemed to be surrounded by other 10 fame shined deep before it settled back again
