As Elder Fin retreated back, Xiao Yunbai just gazed at all this with neutral eyes, even he who was a bit crazy felt a bit pressured when he looked into Xuanyin's eyes, plus he had just met all of them, he might have respect for Xiao but that doesn't mean that he was worried or cared much about Xiao, true care would only arise with the time.
But soon all felt the portal cracking, it was as if the portal would disappear at any time, Xuanyin's eyes widened, she didn't think about anything else as she ran towards the portal but was stopped by Elder Fin, who was startled as he looked into Xuanyin's eyes that turned colder and deadlier as he had stopped.
Eder Fin opened his mouth to speak but it was then that a pressure he never felt flooded his body, it didn't put him in place, it was more of a pressure that filled primal fear and respect within ones soul, all of their eyes focused on the portal that was flinching and finally, it exploded as a huge, beautiful phoenix rose from it and rose to the sky and roared.
Sreeeech!!
Its scream was heard across the lower realm, all of them felt their souls tremble, a beautiful phoenix rose to the sky as it covered the entire sky, up above the clouds clapped signaling the end of a warrior far from the past, deep within the shrine of Fire a tremble was hit, a beam was shot from deep within as a powerful cry was heard, monsters far above one's imagination was awakened.
While back within in the lower realms, The phoenix gave one more cry to the world before it dissipated, Elder Fin, Yunbai, and Xuanyin gazes lingered for a moment before they focused on the boy that was floating down with a world toping beautiful girl in her arms,
"Young master!"
Elder Fin's eyes were trembling as he gazed at Xiao, his whole body felt heavy, the current Xiao was completely different from before, a searing feeling of danger-filled Elder Fin's body, moreover the Xiao felt before felt more connecting, the current him had it but there was an added feeling of royalty to him, a feeling that all must be under his rule, it was faint but it was still there.
Xuanyin didn't care about anything else as her eyes narrowed deeply as she felt Xiao's emotions, especially the one for the girl in his arms. Just as things were getting confusing they all froze in their spot, even Xiao who was floating in the sky, in front of Xiao a woman with a mask on her face had appeared in front of him.
Even through her mask Xiao was able to see that her eyes were shaking in deep astonishment, that was drawing her in, his eyes narrowed but he soon calmed down as he understood who she was, a deep conflicting emotion filled his head as he gazed at Yurou in his arms finally he sighed as he presented Yurou to the woman in front of him as he spoke,
"Take her, don't worry she's fine, it's just that she's undergoing some enlightenment, she will wake up later"
The woman in front of him finally broke out of her daze as she moved forward and carefully took Yurou from his arms, he felt the familiar sensation he had before, the woman in front of him was a phoenix, the protection that was sent to protect Yurou, it wasn't easy to detect it at first but when she had seen Yurou a part of her aura had leaked and Xiao understood who she was,
"Take care of her and once she wakes up tell her that I will find her and that our marriage will be done under the sky of the world"
The woman handling ayurou froze as she heard his words her eyes grew dangerously but then eyes curled up in amusement before which a smooth voice was heard in his ears along with the disappearance of them from his sight,
"Keep dreaming boy....."
'Dream?'
Xiao chuckled when he heard it, the woman might not have felt it now but when they return to the top, the elders would definitely know that Yurou's mark was already given away, even if they didn't want to, Xiao was the current and only partner for Yurou, he couldn't help but chuckle thinking about the chaos he would cause indirectly,
"Brother"
A smooth and soul-shaking voice was heard deep inside Xiao, hearing the voice Xiao smiled as he blinked and appeared in front of Xuanyin, he didn't even have to wait for even a second before which a very familiar scent and coldness assaulted his body, Xunayin's eyes were still cold but if one were to look deeply into it, one might be able to see stars dancing in them.
She hugged him with all her might afraid that he would disappear, Xiao could feel it all, he could tell how anxious and scared she was, no words needed to be spoken between them as he hugged her back with the same enthusiasm, a relaxed smile came to her face as his words lingered,
"I'm back"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Xuanyin, can you give me some space?"
Xiao asked as he looked at his little sister who was stuck to him, even when they had entered the carriage his little sister didn't even let him go, she sat on his lap as she hugged on to him, unwilling to be afar, Xiao felt a headache hitting him, for him, it might be a day or two since they saw each other but for Xuanyin it was only three hours!.
'Sigh....might as well deal with it'
Xiao finally relented, his little sister was just 8 years old, once she's older she will definitely be more restrictive, might as well as enjoy the time he has now, relenting he hugged Xuanyin as she rested her head on his shoulders, they stayed like that for some time before which she raised her head and looked at him,
"....."
"Yeah, I'm not hurt"
"....."
"No, I'm not lying, it wasn't that serious"
His answer didn't make her happy at all, as her blue eyes narrowed at him as she turned her head to the side, acting annoyed, seeing it Xiao smiled, feeling that his sister was cute, he patted her head as he coaxed her,
"Fine..fine it was a bit dangerous but I got stronger because of it"
Xuanyin: Shakes head
"Fine, what should I do to make you happy?"
Finally, Xuanyin's head turned towards him as she picked up his hand and placed it on her head, in Xiao's eyes each of her actions was cute. He understood what she wanted as he started to pat her smooth silky hair,
"My..my for the one called the ice phoenix you're quite spoiled"
Xuanyin didn't reply as she enjoyed the pat that he was giving her, finally after she had enough she turned towards him again, with her eyes bearing into his,
"....."
"You know I had to, it was too dangerous to take you with me"
"....."
"Okay, I will be more careful next time"
"....."
"Yurou?...well let's just say that she's at a better place"
Saying so Xiao started to give a small explanation of what had happened, not knowing that the wheels of fate and karma were already changing, a single move had turned the chessboard upside down, ripples that will affect the entire cosmos were beginning.
