Heavenly Opposers

Xiao's cold eyes bore deeply into the Skylla that was attacking him with all its power, a terrifying pressure bore into him, with his current power he would be smashed to a pulp by the Skylla in front of him, even with the black flame that was their natural enemy it won't be able to bridge such a huge gap, that is in normal circumstances

Xiao's soul stirred as the blue sword that was within it trembled, it was the gift given to him by that being, right now he didn't care about any consequences as he wielded it with raging anger, Xiao might appear calm on the surface but on the inside, a raging flame of anger grew, the atmosphere in the hall stiffened

The Skylla that didn't want to take any chance stiffed as it felt the feeling of a sword hanging above its head, the puny being that it could kill suddenly felt like a behemoth that it dare not offended, a beautiful blue sword appeared in Xiao's right hand and along with it a terrifying black flame surrounded the sword

The skylla's entire being screamed danger with just the black flame, adding to it the sword a pressure that seemed to break it bore down on it, for a moment an illusion of a throne with a cloaked being sitting on it appeared behind Xiao, it was for a single moment as the Skylla made eyes contact with it but even for that moment the Skylla felt deep primal fear

Xiao didn't waste any time as he waved the sword forward slashing at the impudent being that dared to hurt someone that he loved, the sword move was a simple slash but it composed the feeling of the World Sword, the slash cut through the unmoving Skylla in half, while the black flame burned the being purifying it and relishing on the power that it felt

Soon silence filled the surroundings, as the flame removed the Skylla from existence, the blue sword in Xiao's arms broke off, breaking into particles, while blood swept from Xiao's mouth, using power beyond your level is not free, it always has a price, Xiao didn't flinch as he washed away the blood from his mouth

Giving one final look he walked towards Yurou who was weakly laying on the sofa, Xiao's face frowned seeing that her injury was still not healing but it soon faded away as a black flame appeared in his arms, he gently held it to her as he directed the flame to her injury, within seconds the flame started to defuse the burning injury

Meanwhile, Yurou looked at Xiao's calm face with a sweet smile, one might think that Xiao don't care with such a look but Yurou who was now attached to him clearly felt his inner turmoil, he's anger was burning fiercer than any flame would, soon all the remnant energy was taken care of, soon Yurou's natural healing ability took place as it started to heal her, seeing it Xiao sighed in relief

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm better now since my husband is taking care of me"

Yurou replied with a shy blush that brought a cute glow to her face, making her look more stunning, for a moment Xiao froze before which he smiled as he lifted her up in a princess carry, his simple actions spoke much volume than any words, in his heart, he had already accepted her as his woman, anyone who says otherwise could speak with his sword

​ Yurou's smile widened as she saw Xiao's action, her heart was currently beating in pure bliss, with their connection just being with each other was pleasurable, no matter the distance they would always be at heart, moreover, she was content in finally having the person she loves, love her back, as for them being cousins?

Thinking of this a dark light lit within Yurou's eyes before which it disappeared, it was just for a moment but she seemed extremely dangerous, meanwhile within her heart, she had already disregarded the Yun family, with her strength she could squeeze them to death, right now only they knew that they were cousins if they were to disappear....

Unknown to the things he had set in motion Xiao frowned as he looked at his surroundings, the main point being the silence, just now Yurou was attacked yet there was not a single response? just as his thoughts reached here a huge quake hit the entire room he was in while the sound of cracks and blasts hit his ears

BOOM!!

Following it a huge sound of explosions followed, it was not the end as the cries of battle and death sounded in Xiao's ears, he stood strong as he tightly held Yurou in his arms, making sure she was not affected, right now she's hurt and it would take some time for her to be completely healed but the sounds were only puzzling him more

Why has he only heard the sound of war now? moreover, what's happening? shaking his thoughts off Xiao focused on Yurou who was in his arms, he started to walk to the door opening it expecting to find the hallway but he was wrapped within the spatial laws as he was transported to the outside of the palace and the sight the greeted him caused his eyes to widen

While Yurou who was enjoying her time in Xiao's embrace paled as she saw the scene in front of her, right in front of them a brutal battle was taking place, phoenixes trapped, humans being sent to the forefront as meat shields as they grinded to death, many being fighting for the world as they fell one by one

Each of these beings was powerful enough to rule several lands yet they fell like bugs, quickly Xiao focused on Yurou in his arms who was feeling her heart being crushed by the scene in front of them, all of the phoenix in front of her was her ancestors her family, just with her bloodline seeing each of them dying brought pain to her heart, she wanted to fight and Xiao felt it

He tightened his hold on her as he shook his head

"No Yurou we would only be getting in their way"

Hearing Xiao's words Yurou calmed down she knew that he was right but the scene in front of her was appalling, he didn't say anything else as he pushed her closer towards him, being a pillar she needed, it was then that he felt familiar presences behind him, turning around he was met with familiar faces, Naria, Alzeer and Momin, while the rest that was with her was nowhere to be seen

Right now all of them had red eyes that burned with pain and vengeance, their neat dress was torn while they were hurt and bleeding, one look was enough for Xiao to understand what had happened, Alzeer's bloodshot eyes turned towards Yurou as he gave a soul-piercing scream of pain

"Why?! Why are we treated like this? just because we are weak? why? what did we do wrong? why did the heavens be cruel to us?"

He seemed mad and lost, Xiao, didn't complain as he saw the scene in front of him, the huge formation that covered the whole hidden world was broken as the Skylla's kept running in but they were partially blocked? how? well humans were throwing their bodies into these gaps to slow them down, they were literally being killed to provide time, it was a disgusting strategy that gave no value to human life

Yurou could say nothing as she hid her face on Xiao's shoulder, unwilling to respond, while her body trembled.
