7 Departure and Start

An island is floating endlessly inside the infinite space. A woman could be seen practicing sword. She had a shapely-figure, a long brown-hair tied in a ponytail, phoenix eyebrows, small dainty nose, small elegant lips, and a snow white skin. Even though she was covered in sweat, it did not affect how beautiful she was instead it gave her a different kind of charm.

This woman is non-other than Qian Ru, she and Ulquiorra stayed in this place for ten years. Ulquiorra created this space which has different time flow, their ten years hear is only equivalent to five years in Divine Cloud Continent. In that span of time he had imparted different kinds of techniques to her, he also help her reduce the pain she was suffering when he change her physique. The immortal physique that he gave her was Eternal Physique, Soaring Immortal Physique, Void Physique, Void Imperfection Physiques and Sacred Spring Physique.

Just like him he did not change her talent incultivation, on other hand one could see that she is still in the very first realm of cultivation it did not change even a little this entire ten years. But instead he gave her something similar to hogyoku, a diamond shape blue crystal the same size as grain of rice is embedded in the middle of her forehead. That small diamond act as her source of infinite power.

In couple of years they are together there are so many things that happen and change. Right now Ulquiorra can smile and even laugh when he was with Qian Ru. He also learn that her parents died because of some noble man took a liking in her mother. Her father hot angry but he could not do anything because he is just a mortal. When the noble man's men came to their house to take her mother, her father decided to fight. But the moment her father pounces on the men his head separated on his body. Her mother seeing her decapitated husband urges her to ran away while she buy time for her escape. Luckily the men decided not to pursue her, when the night comes she decided to go back to see if her mother was there. When she went back to the village she could see burning houses, dead bodies everywhere, she steeled herself and ran towards her home. But when she open the door she saw the headless corpse of her father and the dead body of her mother with multiple stab on the body. After that she ran into the forest until she was chased by the wolves, and that is where she met him.

Though most of their time spent on the floating island, they still come to Divine Cloud Continent a few times. There he learn the different cultivation stages from a slave dealer who wants to kidnap Qian Ru. They also learn the reason why many cultivators went to that forest at that time, and the Peng brothers and Xue Hua was also a part of that group.

There are time where Ulquiorra ask Qian Ru to go to a nearby City to gather some informations. There he found that the usually kind, obedient and cheerful little girl has a different personality in front of others. She acts cold in front of other people, her usually smiling face was gone replace by bone chilling cold face, she treats all men who approach her with indifference. When she came back he asked her why did she act like that to others. She only said to him "Big brother is the only one she would get close to" she also said "Big brother is an idiot for not knowing anything." Ulquiorra was stupefied when she calls him idiot, he does not know what she means by calling him an idiot.

According to the information they gathered, the city that Qian Ru went frequently was part of the Divine Dragon Empire. It is controlled by the Long Imperial Family, they are a family with a history of a thousand year. There are many sects in the Empire, the Diamond Fist Sect and the Ice Palace was just one of those. They heard that there are some conflicts happening between the Ice Palace and the Diamond Fist Sect. They heard that when the Grand Elder of the Diamond Fist Sect while he investigated the death of his personal disciple, he discovered that the death of the three brothers was cause by a technique only Ice Palace disciple can practice. Even though the conflict between the two was small, there are still some casualties at both sides.

"Big brother I'm all prepared now" Qian Ru said to Ulquiorra who was standing at the edge of the floating island.

"Okay we will depart now" even all the years that had pass. Ulquiorra's appearance did not change a little bit even his height is still the same.

"Un.Big brother" after that both their bodies become shrouded by fog and slowly disappear. Even though Ulquiorra said to Qian Ru to call him by his name she rejected the idea she said to him "I want to call you Big brother because you are my Big brother, but in the future when were really together I will change big brother to hus...." she said with a very red face. While Ulquiorra look at her then said "What is the difference of between present and the future? We are already together now why change it in the future if you can change it now?" "Big brother will never understand. hmmp" after that she ran away with puffed cheeks.

-------------------

In the middle of a road two person appear out of nowhere with fog covering their bodies. One was a male and the other was female.

"Big brother are we gonna fly to travel?"

"No we are just gonna walk"

"But big brother our travel would become slow"

"There is no need to rush, we have all the time we need in this world" after that the male began to walk, following beside him a beautiful woman.
