Heavenly Opposers

"Boy, who are you?"

Xiao was soon faced with this question from a beautiful woman, who seemed to have seen much in her life, just her natural presence blended into the world, a sense of profoundness too deep to be measured radiated from her body, Xiao could even feel his fire control being severely restricted under the woman's gaze

The moment he's out of his life and death battle he's pulled into another one, for once Xiao just wanted to find a warm bed and take a rest but holding back his annoyance, Xiao's eyes looked towards Yun Yurou who was in a similar situation to him, scanning through all the situation in his mind Xiao spoke

"It's just as you think your excellency"

Hearing Xiao's words the ancestral elder's eyes rose up in question, as she spoke again with some power in her words

"What do you mean?"

Not at feeling pressured, Xiao spoke back

"Nothing, what I meant is that the situation is just had you have thought"

Xiao's logic was simple, right now he has no idea where he is and what's going on, so its better to go with the flow for right now, rather than him bullshitting some made-up excuse, its better that he builds upon the thoughts that were already swirling within the mind of the other, plus it's not like he has an ability to trick such a powerful expert

Hearing Xiao's words the woman's eyes twinkled with some deep thoughts, the pressure on Xiao and Yun Yurou disappeared and as soon as it did Yun Yurou didn't hesitate to run up to Xiao as she started to check up on Xiao, her eyes were filled with gentleness as she made sure that Xiao was not hurt

"Tsk, what a brat"

The ancestral elder rolled her eyes, as she saw a divine phoenix acting like an obedient wife but in the end, she sighed, she naturally couldn't control the path of Yun Yurou, while her talents were out of the world, there's still much to be understood, she looked at Xiao as she spoke

"Boy, do you know the commotion you have caused? sigh...this Beastial era truly is a bizarre one"

At first, Xiao wasn't much interested in the ramblings of the woman but when he heard the rest of her words, he was stunned for a moment

'Beastial Era?'

For a moment Xiao thought that he had heard it wrong but seeing the same stunned look on Yun Yurou's face he understood that it was not a mistake, soon a lot of the things he felt was missing started to fall into pieces but the more proof he saw the more impossible things became for him but soon he calmed down

Well he died first, was reborn in another world then he died again where he was brought back to the past, after going through all this, there's a point where mystical things become bland, anyhow Xiao's mind soon started to rise with several prospects, but before he could say anything the woman in front of him did

"Anyhow you two should go and take rest as you consolidate your foundations, it would seem that the war would be brought forward"

"War?"

Hearing Xiao's question the woman shot him an annoyed look before she continued

"Of course, the war's brought forward due to both of you, I am sure that they won't be able to stay back feeling both of your talents, sigh.....just when we were getting a leeway"

The more he heard, the more questions birthed in Xiao's mind but before he could ask anything, the woman in front of him waved her hand, as she disappeared and with that several rows of servants walked into the room as they started to lead Xiao and Yun Yurou to a specific room, well it was one of the most luxurious room Xiao has ever been too

The same could be said for Yun Yurou as she too kept looking at the huge room they were brought to, each and every edge screamed profoundness, thankfully right now Xiao was being protected from the immense pressure of the Qi in this place, the purple flame within him seemed to have a role in it, moreover, he could feel that the Qi around the room has been tempered for his comfort

There seem to be a relaxation and mind focusing arrays fixed into the room to allow people who just broken through to feel more relaxed so that they could consolidate their foundation safely, as soon as both of them had entered the room, the so-called 'servants' closed the room as they locked both of them within the room

Xiao didn't pay any heed to it as he walked towards the huge bed in the room, laying on it to relax, he was truly tired from all that had happened till now but just as he had laid on the bed, someone else didn't wait any longer as she too laid beside him, turning to the side Xiao was met with the eyes of Yun Yurou who was looking at him lovingly

For a moment Xiao couldn't help be dazed by her beauty, her long red-yellow hair that fell to her back as she laid on the bed, her beautiful and mysterious flame-like eyes, while her red dress complimented her perfectly, her bewitching face was filled with a loving smile on her, for some reason, Xiao felt an uncanny resemblance of it to the past

'Wow, she sure became good looking'

Thinking of this he quickly shook his head as he laid straight on the bed looking up to the ceiling but it seemed that Yun Yurou didn't have enough as she moved closer towards him, she laid dangerously close to him, as she looked at him from above, her eyes were curled up happily as she kept smiling, now being unable to handle it anymore Xiao spoke

"What are you looking at so intently?"

Hearing Xiao's words Yun Yurou's face changed as she pouted at him, seeing it Xiao couldn't help but feel his heart itch but his surprise was only beginning as Yun Yurou replied in an obvious manner

"Of course, I am looking at my husband"

"Huh?"

Xiao was so dumbfounded for a moment that only a voice was able to escape his mouth, seeing it a mischievous smile came upon Yun Yurou's face as she laughed a bit, seeing it Xiao quickly recovered his mind as he rebutted her

"Just when did we get married?!"

Xiao could agree that she now holds a great deal of care for Yun Yurou much greater than before but it hadn't reached the level of love yet, the woman that Xiao had almost fallen for was the Yun Yurou who doesn't exist anymore, when she died his feelings had died with her too, just them being the same person doesn't mean that they are the same

The adventures, ups and downs, the nightmares, and all the fight he had with the future Yun Yurou all amounted to the reason that he almost fell for her, but none of them exist now, in a way that was a past that would remain the past, at the same time Yun Yurou hearing Xiao's words didn't panic as she moved her hands and held Xiao's hand

For some reason, Xiao wasn't able to move as he saw Yun Yurou lovingly raising his hand as she held it to her heart as she spoke with a gentle voice

"Maybe not yet but surely, definitely I will take your heart for myself, I will make sure to be by your side forever"

Yun Yurou's words were filled with conviction and unyielding spirit, the amount of love that was coming through her was so overwhelming that the surroundings heated to her emotions
