Divine Intertwined Destinies

"An existence brimming with grace, once danced unrestrained over the vast skies, accompanied by a striking crescent blade..." Yue Xianwu wakes up again after a slumber of a thousand years with a single voice echoing "Must stay by the Demon sovereign's side." Amid the clash of virtuous and viscous. With a glint of light she moves forward to face her once unfortunate fate again. However, behind the shadows a silhouette smiles. For he has been watching her for a long, long time.

(Part 2)

The two of them, appeared before a grand city in a blink of an eye. Xianwu stepping out of the array took a deep breath. Just like the sight of the kingdom she saw before, the pavilion before her gave the same sight. Weixiao grasping a look at her smiled "So… do you remember this place crown princess?" he asked.

Xianwu coming back to reality nodded, "Yes, this place is the same as before. The Dragon city in the mortal world. And, the point where we stand is the Dragon pavilion." Weixiao nodded. The pavilion laying upwards from the stairs, was protected by heavenly Supremes of many ranks. By just only the sight, Xianwu was aware.

"This is where Jiu Lianhua was sent to solve her mission this time, however, unfortunately she faced something else amid it." Weixiao told taking a deep sigh. "Do you know crown princess, the reason why you see the pavilion so heavily guarded? The only reason is because the pavilion now contains the deadliest weapons of two great enemies of ours." Weixiao told while gazing at her.

"Two weapons? Wasn't it only one when I was alive…?" Xianwu pondered. "You're right. There was only one weapon. But, now we have two." Weixiao continued while winking his eye walking away from the pavilion. "Xianwu blinked her eyes in surprise, "Did he just read my mind for an instant?!" she thought perplexed soon following him. "The additional weapon kept in the pavilion now, is of the 2nd demon king of the Hellhiem realm. Earth devouring black envoy." He told.

"Earth devouring black envoy? The one who rules the mountain and the glaciers in the mortal realm?!" Xianwu thought while remembering Xiao yin's words. "But… who would be so powerful to fight a demon sovereign and even take his weapon while going on at it…?" she continued to think in wonder.

Instantly, grasping Weixiao's sight a heavenly supreme rushed over. "Heavenly Thunder master! You are here." He asked slightly relieved. Weixiao nodded, "I am… tell me, how are the matters in the Dragon city including clues about the transfer of a heavenly supreme to the inferno city." Xianwu looked at them as she pondered, "Looks like…not many knows that the one who has gone missing is Lianhua…"

The heavenly supreme nodded speaking up, "Lord Thunder master, the city is safe from perils thanks to the additional help received from the heavenly city. Not many souls are trying to bypass the city from the Hellhiem route. However, there is no news of the case regarding the fire spell from 10 days ago. We are still trying to find information on it however, there is still no valid clue available."

Weixiao taking a deep breath smiled, "Alright. Thank you for your hard work. Don't worry about other things and just focus on protecting the city and the pavilion. Leave the rest to us." The heavenly supreme nodding went back to his station as Weixiao turned around smiling at Xianwu. "Sorry… did you felt left out?" he asked politely. Up to Xianwu's surprise, it didn't mattered to her at all. Moreover, she was so deeply engrossed in her own thoughts to even forget that he was talking to someone else.

"Huh? No! Not at all. I was just thinking as well. I didn't felt left out." She corrected. Weixiao smiled while waving his brush, "Heh… so what were you thinking your highness?" he asked slight mischievously. Xianwu taking a deep breath turned her face left and right, "Nothing much… I was just wondering that if the weapons are so important to guard… then why, aren't they kept in the heavenly realm. Wouldn't it be easier to keep an eye on them there?" she asked. Weixiao smiled.

"You are right. I wondered that too however, my father told me that the amount of evil energy the demon sovereign's weapons possesses is far greater than they even keep in themselves. So if they are kept in the heavenly realm their evil energy clashes with the heavenly energy creating turmoil." He explained.

"Ah… so does that mean, if the weapons are away from the demon sovereigns and the ghost kings their power will be half of their overall strength since, their weapons are away from them?" Xianwu questioned. "Yes… you are quiet clever aren't you crown princess?" Weixiao questioned teasingly.

"Haha… it's not cleverness maybe curiosity…?" she replied with an awkward laugh. Weixiao smiled walking forward towards the outskirts of the city. "So we are going towards the Hellhiem route now, right?" Xianwu questioned. "Right, the moment we cross the border, we will join the souls who are on their way towards the Demon realm." Weixiao told.

Xianwu thinking hard questioned, "Then, wouldn't it had been fine if we had transported right before the Hellhiem gate?" Weixiao rejecting her words responded, "I can't do that crown princess. Instead, no one can do that. If I were to design an array right before the Hellhiem gate my heavenly energy would be sensed instead, warning the inferno city. The plan even before beginning would have been failed."

Xianwu thinking over thought, "Right, isn't that how the other heavenly Supremes sent by the heavenly emperor himself were found out…" she sighed. "Looks like this time… we have to be very careful." She thought. Xianwu gazing at the surroundings witnessed bartering and gossips of all kinds. Though, the atmosphere due to frequent attacks, was not very bustling however, it still gave quiet a peaceful sight.

Walking across the market Xianwu's gaze instantly shifted towards a beautiful straw hat dangling. Instantly, Xianwu halted in her steps as her hands reached her hairs suddenly realizing, "Ah! I forgot my hat. No wonder I felt a little strange. Since, Fa ling was hiding himself too consciously. Sigh~ I can't believe I forgot it. Even though, people don't realize me here I still feel a little uncomfortable…" She thought.

Weixiao turning around looked at Xianwu who had halted before a stall for a while. "Crown Princess…?" he called. Hearing his voice Xianwu pushing away her thoughts made her way towards him. "What's wrong? Is something the matter?" he questioned tracing her puzzled face. "Oh nothing. Nothing at all. I was just lost in thought for a while." Xianwu responded making sure not to make him worry which seem to be left in vain. Weixiao smiled. Soon, he made his way towards the same stall where Xianwu stood.

"Huh?" Xianwu asked walking back towards him. "If you want something just say so. It's better than seeing you worry Crown princess." Weixiao smiled as the man handed him the same straw hat Xianwu had her eyes on. Xianwu blinked her eyes in surprise. A small smile escaped her lips. "I'm sorry for troubling you." she apologized. Weixiao smiling back settled the hat over her hairs. "You would've troubled me more if you kept getting troubled in between our mission." He commented.

Xianwu nodded tying the woolen strand beneath her neck. Fa ling sensing the shade over him seemed a lot more joyed than before. "Thank you, Thunder master." Xianwu thanked. "Alright. Alright. Let's go. Looks like we're already here." He told as the two of them went towards the sealed protection of the city. Walking closer Xianwu could trace the sight of souls marching forth towards the Hellhiem gate through the Hellhiem route.

"So this is the route from where the souls marches towards the inferno city. In the past, I did visit the Dragon city and even the dragon pavilion. However, I never saw the route…" she thought. "Crown princess Yue, the moment we step forward. We'll be in the demon realm's territory. So make sure you hide all your heavenly power. Though, I can't sense any discharge of heavenly power from you." Weixiao advised.

Xianwu nodded, "It must be because the Heavenly Emperor hid it for me…" she thought. "Shall we go?" he asked. Xianwu nodded and at that moment, the two of them stepped outside the dragon city landing right on the Hellhiem route.
