Chapter 46
Deep inside the broken heavenly realm, a lone relatively intact mountain floated aimlessly in the broken realm. A loud grumble suddenly made the celestial mountain shake as the thick scent of blood washed over the entire area.
A red fog slowly gushed from deep inside the mountain effectively surrounding all of it. The aura it contained was none other than that of a God realm entity.
Soon enough, the fog completely surrounded the mountain hiding it from plain sight. It then started to part in the middle as if to make way to its natural leader.
A young boy that looked to be fourteen of age calmly walked out from inside the cave situated exactly in the mountain as the red hue parted to the sides making way for him to move towards the outside.
His face was devilishly handsome with deathly pale skin, both of his eyes resembled two red gems that seemed to glow. His hair was black and messy yet it strangely suited him.
He wore a purple Daoist robe as he walked out of the cave. Looking at his surroundings the let out a deep breath his face expressionless as he spoke.
"So Hong failed." His was was impossibly deep as it contrasted his body.
Pulling both of his hands behind his back, the boy calmly took a step in the air as if it was solid ground. As he moved away from the ground the celestial mountain started to shrink little by little before turning into a small black dot that flew towards his forehead and disappeared.
"I have yet to recover from my injuries, but it should be more than enough to catch these pests that have been lurking around." He muttered, a dangerous glint flashing in his eyes as his bloodlust soared towards the broken sky causing more void portals to come into being.
"I have to be careful not to destroy the mortal realm, otherwise 'they' would not stand by idly and not do anything." He shuddered while thinking about the consequences should he accidentally destroy the realm.
"Maybe they wouldn't mind too much if it's just one little part." he said while rubbing his chin.
Clicking his tongue the boy complained.
"Ah, who cares! Will see how this goes, those incompetent bastards each and every one of them, making me do this by myself! Can't even take care of two celestials."
*BOOOOOM*
With a loud boom, his figure suddenly turned into a beam of red light that flew away towards the distance, his soaring bloodlust causing the already broken space to bend and break even more.

"Are you sure?" Asked Addi, his face held a complicated look as he looked at Omis.
"Yes, I can't guarantee her safety. Plus the underworld is not somewhere a mortal should visit." Replied Omis.
"True, I'm just surprised. I thought you'd want to take her with you considering..."
"Her eyes? Yes, she may indeed be a descendent of Lu Lu, but she's also just a little girl. I won't bring her any further into this mess." Said Omis with a serious expression.
Nodding, Addi turned to glance at the three mortals in the Empress's cultivation chamber. Walking towards Meng he just gave a small smile to which she replied with a deep bow.
"Thank you senior Addi, for everything."
Keeping his smile, Addi turned towards the Lee-Lee who was staring back at him with her big eyes, patting her head affectionately, a sad smile took over his face as his eyes turned distant for a second seemingly relieving an old memory before he regained his bearings and teleported away.
Seeing that, Omis let out a sigh before he walked towards Meng and Lee-Lee.
"Sister Meng, take care of yourself." saying that, Omis passed her a small yet heavy pouch.
Confused Meng, grabbed it yet as soon as she opened it her eyes widened. The pouch was full to the brim with gold coins that would be enough to last them a lifetime.
Unable to find the words, she dropped to her knees and kowtowed.
"Thank you, brother Omis! I will never forget your kindness!"
Helping her to her feet, Omis smiled.
"Please get up sister, use this to take care of yourself and Lee-Lee."
He then turned towards the little girl whose eyes started watering as tears threatened to fall down her cheeks.
"A-Are you leaving big brother?"
Ruffling her hair, Omis replied. "Yes, I have to go Lee-Lee."
"Can we come with you?" She asked in a voice full of expectations.
Giving out a sad smile, Omis replied.
"I'm afraid not, the place I'm leaving to is not one suitable for you. Now you are good and listen to your mother okay?"
"Yes, big brother I will be good! Will we meet again?"
"Maybe..." Saying that Omis patted her head one last time before he glanced at the Empress who was quietly watching the entire ordeal.
"Take care of your self Empress."
Hearing that, Wan Da gave a deep respectful bow before replying.
"Safe travels senior Omis!"
Nodding Omis gave one final glance towards Lee-Lee before teleporting away as well.

Far away from the capital of the Song kingdom, Addi's figure was standing in the air with a serious expression on his face as he stared towards the distance.
*WOOOSH*
The air next to him rippled as space broke, allowing Omis to walk out of it. He looked at Addi who did not seem to notice him arrive before speaking.
"I can feel it."
Addi turned his head towards him as he replied solemnly.
"Yes, 'he' is trying to forcefully break into the mortal realm..."
Nodding in understanding, Omis and Addi turned into two beams of light that disappeared in the distance.
'I thought you said you didn't want to involve her in our matters if so why did you leave that cultivation technique with her?' Asked Addi, as he sent a mental message to Omis as they flew towards their destination.
'Oh please, I don't want to hear that from you. I noticed the escape technique you left her when I imparted mine.' Replied Omis with a message of his own.
Chuckling Addi continued. 'I had a feeling you wouldn't leave her out of this so an escape technique to help her is the only thing I can do.'
Smiling in satisfaction Omis replied.
'You may act tough all you want, but you still can be surprisingly nice.'
Harrumphing in reply, Addi and Omis continued their flight. Their destinations, the passage to the underworld.
