Chapter 17: Destruction,Ice Phoenix

Suddenly a large burst of wave emerged from the girl and moved away with her at the center.

Xu Liang's eyes opened wide as he saw what happened next. Everything around the girl disintegrated as the wave extended outwards.

Both the men noticed the scary strength of that wave. Their eyes opened wide as they saw that everything that came into its path disintegrated into nothingness. Even the bodies of kids disappeared as they came in contact with that threatening wave.

"Defend yourself!!!" Min let out loudly as he brought a 7 feet tall and 2 feet wide shield out of his storage ring.

"This is the shield that master gifted me! Nothing can break it. He placed the shield in front of him as he hid behind the shield. The shield started shining with bright yellow light as a powerful aura spread from it.

"Iron Giant body! My body is indestructible!!!" Wen let out loudly as his body started shining brightly. His skin changed color to silvery grey while his size increased by twice.

Wen looked confident in his Iron Giant Body thus he covered it with no extra layer of protection.

The wave continued forth and left nothing behind as it finally reached Min. As the wave touched Min's shield, the shield that previously looked unbreakable disintegrated into nothingness.

Min screamed loudly as the wave touched him. He felt excruciating pain as his body was destroyed bit by bit. In his last moments, he couldn't help but regret coming here.

Wen saw Min die and his eyes opened wide as his fear increased. His face distorted as he began doubting his Iron Giant Body.

He took out a shield as well and used it as an added protection as he prayed to gods for protection.

The wave reached him and just like Min, his shield was immediately destroyed. His indestructible body began disintegrating like it was nothing in front of the massive wave.

Soon, he was turned into nothingness as well, but the wave didn't stop as it continued ahead.

As far as the eyes could see, nothing was there. Everything had disappeared into nothingness. Even the blood that was left on the ground had disappeared.

Only one person was left there. The girl in blonde hair. Before Xu Liang could see more, everything disappeared. The mirror disappeared along with the vast space as everything turned dark.

"Young Master!!! Princess!!! What the..." A shocked voice sounded in his ears.

Xu Liang softly opened his eyes as he recognized that voice.

As he opened his eyes, what came into his views were bedsheets. He could feel that his body was resting on something soft, especially his chest that felt like it was on pillows.

He placed his hands on the bed as he picked his body up. A beautiful face came into his view. It was the face of Yue. Her beautiful face looked so peaceful as it looked like she was sleeping soundly, but Xu Liang knew that she was unconscious in reality.

"He got off her body as he stood up. He turned back only to find Mengchan standing behind him.

"Did you send anyone to inform father?" He asked as he gazed at Mengchan with a serious look on his face.

"Ah...ah... Not yet. I just entered this room. I promise I didn't see anything inappropriate." Mengchan hurriedly replied as a shade of crimson covered her face.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Go immediately inform father that Yue went unconscious." Xu Liang told Mengchan with a serious expression on his face.

"But... but his majesty is not in the palace. As I mentioned before, he went out for some important business." Mengchan replied with a worried look on her face.

"Is Uncle Zhen or Goddess of Medicine here?" Long Chen inquired.

"None of them are here." Mengchan shook her head lightly.

"Goddess of Medicine hasn't changed her residence, has she?" Xu Liang asked her as he glanced at the unconscious Yue with a worried look on his face.

"Madam Wen Yin  still lives in her old palace." She replied.

"Alright, I'm leaving the palace. I'll come back with the Goddess of Medicine. Take care of Yue till then."  Xu Liang said as he walked towards the exit.

"Oh right, Where is my Lexi?" He asked her before exiting.

"She is in the same old hall. Her personal place that you gave her." Mengchan replied immediately.

"Alright..." Xu Liang said as he left. He couldn't help but take one last glance at Yue before leaving though.

Xu Liang walked through the long hallways of the palace. Many guards and servants saw him and greeted him with much respect as they all got down on their knees.

Xu Liang climbed the stairs as he reached the top floor of the palace.

The stairs stopped in front of a long hallway of the top floor. There was only one door on each side of the hallway. Xu Liang walked forth and stood in front of the door on the right.

"Although I have changed, I hope you haven't. It had been a really long time Lexi." Xu Liang muttered as he remembered the memories related to Lexi in this world.

With a smile, he opened the door and entered the room.

The room looked less like a room and more like a giant ice field. There was snow everywhere in the hall that looked like it spread for hundreds of meters.

There was Ice as far as his eyes could see and it looked as clear as the purest of ice.

Before he could even take his second step inside, a sound was heard. It sounded like a Phoenix's cry. It was a beautiful sound much like a beautiful song.

Soon, a beautiful creature came into his view. It looked much like a phoenix, but instead of the flaming red color, it was icy blue. It looked to be even taller than Xu Liang with a height of 2 meters.

As its wings weren't open, it was difficult to judge their actual size, but Xu Liang knew that each of her wings was around 4 meters long.

The Ice phoenix stopped in front of Xu Liang as it gazed at him with its shiny eyes and gave a happy cry.

"I know Lexi, I missed you as well." Xu Liang said as he patted its head.

"Let's go, Finally it's time for us to fly high again."  Xu Liang said with a smile.
