12 Chapter 10: Trapped Soul

As for the princess, she was just as worried for you. She passed most of her day here holding your hand and gazing at your face while the remaining part of her day was spent in the library, looking for cures. " War God Zhen chuckled as he said to Xu Liang. Yue's face turned crimson as she thought about Xu Liang hearing all about her.

"Oh? Are you really talking about me? What about you Zhen? Invading Demon Realm because of a rumor about a potential medicine that could help little Liang? " Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said with an amused smile on his face. 

" Hahaha...  Are you all seriously talking about who missed him the most? And who cares the most?  I swear you guys are such little kids" A beautiful woman lavishly dressed in green entered the room while laughing. She looked to be in her late twenties.

She was wearing a light green dress that looked like the gown from behind and was covering her legs, while it looked like a short skirt from the front, which exposed her milky white legs. Her dress wrapped her curvaceous body tightly, making her look even more charming. It looked like her big chest could jump out of such tight clothing at any moment.

"Yin! You're finally here! Go check on him. He is finally up after so long. You need to make sure he stays up and doesn't fall into another coma!!!" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said in a serious tone as he gazed at the goddess of medicine. 

'Wen Yin, Goddess of medicine'  Xu Liang thought as he gazed at the woman. 

"Your majesty, you're in such a hurry as always. Don't you know that a lady will be tired after doing those extensive exercises all night long with you" Wen Yin said she gazed at the Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu with a seductive smile. 

"Your majesty? You... and Wen Yin.... All night long.... Exercise? I never knew that your heart was still so young from the inside." War God Zhen exclaimed as if he had gotten the biggest shock of his life.

"What nonsense are you talking about!!! " Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said loudly as he gazed at War God Zhen with an annoyed expression on his face. He was about to scold War God Zhen when a small pearl of laughter became audible. He was stunned as he looked at the person who was laughing. His expressions couldn't help but turn serious. 

Xu Liang, who was nearby, was listening to their conversations carefully. He couldn't help but chuckle as he heard War God Zhen's dramatic comments.

Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu, War God Zhen, Princess Yue and goddess of medicine, Wen Yin, all looked like they had just seen a ghost. They gazed at Xu Liang with their mouth wide open. It was the first time anyone had ever heard the laughter of Xu Liang. In fact, most people had started considering Xu Liang as a person who was unable to laugh. 

Heavenly Emperor's shocked expressions soon changed to a smile as he gazed at Xu Liang with a caring look on his face. To Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu's ears, Xu Liang's laughter sounded like a beautiful Melody that he was dying to hear. Princess Yue smiled as well as she looked at Xu Liang with a gentle look in her eyes while she was still in his embrace.

Xu Liang saw everyone looking at him, which made him stop laughing. A wry smile appeared on his face as he wondered why everyone was behaving so strangely.

"Do I even need to check on him? He is already looking better than ever." Goddess of medicine, Wen Yin laughed. Although Wen Yin said it, she still walked towards Xu Liang.

"Ahh... Princess?  Aren't you too close to Prince Liang? Do you want to make him lose control and devour you? You know all guys are beasts who can't control themselves in front of their desires. Just look at the two men standing behind me as an example" Goddess of medicine, Wen Yin chuckled as she said to Princess Yue. 

Princess Yue hurriedly left Xu Liang's embrace as she separated herself with a crimson look in her face and stood aside.

"Can you stop with your lies? It's getting annoying. You might be right about his Majesty, but don't destroy my reputation along with his. I am a pure soul and a proper gentleman" War God Zhen said as he stood tall with an honest look on his face. He talked before Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu could say anything, but both their words made Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu stunned as he gazed at both of them blankly.

"Both of you!!! Enough with your jokes!!!" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu let out loudly with an annoyed look on his face.

"Can you both stop talking nonsense? I'm trying to work here! Don't disturb me" Goddess of Medicine, Wen Yin let out with a smile on her face as she looked at Xu Ming. 

She took a step forward as she placed her finger on his forehead.

She closed her eyes and she used her powers. She stayed like that for over five minutes, but it looked like she was struggling with something. Sweat started appearing on her forehead as she struggled to stand still. After a short time, she hurriedly removed her finger as she took a step backward. She gazed at Xu Liang with a strange look on her face as she breathed heavily.

"What is happening... Why do you look so serious? Is he alright? " Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu asked with a worried look on his face. 

"I can't say as I'm not sure what just happened. Although his physical body looks good, the problem is with his soul... " Goddess of Medicine, Wen Yin said with a grave look on her face.

" What do you mean?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu asked in a serious tone as he gazed at Wen Yin.

"You know what I told you when I first checked on him after he went unconscious years ago? " Goddess of Medicine Wen Yin asked as she looked at Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu with full seriousness. 

"I said that his soul is trapped. His soul was inside a void which I wasn't able to access" Goddess of Medicine Wen Yin said to Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu without waiting for his reply. 

" I remember. What about that?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu asked as he failed to understand her meaning. 

"It's still the same! Xu Liang's soul is still inside that void, " Goddess of Medicine Wen Yin commented as she looked at Xu Liang. 

Xu Liang couldn't help but become worried as he heard her words.

'Did she find out about everything? ' He thought with a worried look on his face.
