Chapter 448: 9.67 Second Blue Star – Dragon and Tiger.
At the space under the bridge, the two hidden Demigods were entertaining their customers when they suddenly saw the sky split when the three heirs from the Upper Realm had descended. When Feng Houye had descended before it didn’t cause too much commotion as he used his Clan’s one special token to descend in the mortal realm.
Among the four mystic clans in the upper realm, only the Phoenix Clan had direct descended to the human city because of this the restriction of the heavenly laws to them were quite lenient plus the fact that Feng Hou is the chosen most beloved son of heavens that the heavenly laws of this world are more biased on the Feng Clan.
Demigod Xie Yin and Shen Ling felt the tremors in the sky. The split second of the heavens fragmenting was witnessed by them and some humans who coincidentally witnessed the scene.
“What the fuck!? The sky split!!!”
“What the hell are you saying dude? Did you drink too much?”
“I-I just saw. The sky fragmented like a broken mirror but when I blinked it returned to normal.”
“Dude, you drank a lot. Do you still want to check your fortune?”
“Ah~ fortune?”
“Sigh~ come on, let’s just go home. Drink some sobering soup and return to normal.”
Then the customers saw the two old fortune tellers closing their stalls without a word. These scamming old men even returned their sums of money which is rare.
Old man Yi said, “Go… Go home! The stalls are closing early today!”
“Hey! You haven’t checked my fortune yet!” complained one of the customers.
“We are closing today and will return your money. Come back next time. Today is not a good day to linger outside your house,” said Old Man Ling as he looked at the sky with a serious expression.
The customers look at each other and decide to follow Old Man Ling’s advice. His face is normal expressionless most of the time, it is surprising that at this moment this fortune teller is now looking at the clear sky with a serious face even the jolly and entertaining Old Man Yi was not smiling at this moment. They could only retire and head home early. Once the people had dispersed, Shen Ling and Xie Yi had returned to their original appearance and looked at each other. They had noticed that three beings had descended on the mortal realm. As Demigods that protect the Celestial Society in the human world, they had no other choice but to return to their territory to plan what they should do next.
Demigod Xie Yi said, “I can’t believe they are descending in this lower plane all at the same time. Before it was only the Phoenix King looking after his descendants but this time there are three and all seem to be more or as powerful as the Phoenix King.”
“Maybe something happened to that Phoenix King and they descended to check on him. His aura had long disappeared in this realm a few days ago and just reappeared today. Don’t you think that’s weird?” said Demigod Shen Ling.
Demigod Xie Yi replied, “I’m more worried about their goal instead of that Phoenix King. You don’t think they are here for Xiao Hua right?”
This question startled Shen Ling and his eyes widened in shock. This possibility is the greatest among all other possible plans. After all, how rare does a pure golden soul exist? It is something that isn’t supposed to be seen in this realm.
“Let’s go visit them and give a warning before returning to the Celestial Mountain,” said Shen Ling.
Then suddenly they felt an outsider aura with hints of Dragon Bloodline passing over their heads. Shen Ling and Xie Yi were stunned at first but put their guards up as they bumped into Long Yi, the Dragon Heir who was on his way to the North where the Ancient Palace is located. Long Yi had also noticed the presence of local Demigods. He spotted Xie Yi and Shen Ling and decided to go down and meet them two and ask them questions about the golden soul.
Long Yi spoke, “Demigods of the Human Realm? Not bad you both are about to ascend. As long as you survive your incoming tribulation, you should be able to attain ascension.”
Shen Ling and Xie Ye didn’t entertain the Dragon King before them. He keeps their mouths shut as they look at Long Yi full of vigilance.
“You don’t seem to welcome my presence. Don’t worry this king only had a few questions about something. As long as you honestly answer this King’s question then you shall be spared.” said Long Yi.
His dragon eyes morph in his human form and glance at the two demigods before him. He noticed the original form of the two. One is a vermillion bird from ancient times and a rare Ice Siren with an ice fairy bloodline. His eyes narrowed in surprise; he couldn’t believe these creatures existed in this mortal realm when the Vermillion, Siren, and fairy race were all long extinct when the Four Mythical Clans took over the Upper Realm.
Long Yi murmured, “A Vermillion Bird and a Siren with Fairy bloodline? You guys had hidden yourselves well. Rare things are to be collected right? I will catch you and give you to my future spouse.”
Even though he hasn’t seen the Golden Soul’s appearance, Long Yi is already planning on showering him with gifts. Though dragons are authoritative and arrogant, they are the type of creatures that are loyal to their spouse. Even if there is no love between them and their partners they would only love and care for their other half.
Xie Ye pulled back his partner behind him and whispered, “I will back him for you. Go to the Ancient Mansion and inform the Ghost King about this Dragon.”
“No! I will not leave you here alone! I will fight with you. My life and death are connected to yours.” retorted Shen Ling, his expression is serious and honest.
Xie Ye couldn’t help but helplessly agree and let his lover stand by his side and fight with him.
“Heh~ Interesting. Did you really think you could beat a dragon? Even though I only have a Demigod Cultivation strength in this realm, in my real form my vessel is already God state.” said Long Yi as he slowly reveals his dragon form.
His size is enough to destroy a mansion, five-floor height. His scales are light red and his eyes are slit and golden. Xie Ye and Shen Ling pulled out their weapons since both are not in God’s state, they aren’t able to use a domain to create a separate dimension to fight on. But Shen Ling can create a boundary that prevents humans from seeing what is inside and it doesn’t allow others to enter inside.
Xie Ye had a smile on his face and his eyes were no longer calm. Their opponent is a Dragon that is physically a God.
“I can’t believe I’m going to fight dragons before ascension,” said Xie Ye as he noticed his wife standing beside him holding his phone. “Sweetie, what are you doing?” he asked.
“I’m sending a message to Xiao Hua just in case,” said Shen Ling.
Xie Ling said, “It isn’t too late to leave…”
Smacked!
Shen Ling’s hands hit both cheeks of Xie Yi and held his face with his hands and said, “My words will not change. I will be with you! Whether to live together or die together, A’Yi!”
Xie Yi couldn’t help but smile. He held his partner’s hand and kissed it. His eyes were full of happiness and satisfaction.
“Okay. I won’t push you away anymore. A’Ling, fight with me…” said Xie Yi.

On the other hand, at the Lou Clan’s Mansion,
Xia Jieye calmed down and spared the life of the protagonist going as he was told to. He sat back where he was and conversed with system Yue in his mind while pretending to enjoy his tea.
‘Talk. What did the little one want you to say to me?’ asked Xia Jieye to System Yue in his mind.
They could converse with their thoughts like how Hei Anjing could do so. System Yue in his moon avatar form is now floating around the God of Void but only the latter can see him.
[Lord Hei said to meet him before the Lord ascends or else he would ignore you the next time you meet.]
‘Hahaha~ Harsh as always. A bit spoiled but that’s cute so it’s okay. I am planning to meet him soon though.’
[My Lord… Lord Hei also said to stop hurting your own self. Do not give nightmares to your other soul. That’s what Lord Hei told me to tell My Lord.]
‘Pfft. Fine, that one should understand more or else what he should be doing to what he shouldn’t be doing at all. Who told him to make my little one cry. Serves him right to suffer some nightmares.’
[My Lord you can’t even leave this world without ascending but I’ve heard that the Lord had met the Dream God?]
‘You mean that little brat of my brother? He usually stays in the Dream Realm. Abyss had a special doorway to the dream realm. I met him there and visit our son in his dreams as well.’
Hearing about the abyss having a connection with the Dream Realm rendered System Yue speechless, he had never heard about this before. By there are some facts saying that the horror genre world had a merge dream realm and darkness. So maybe it was the same as that.
[My Lord about the clone in front of you. It thinks its companions are looking after him. There are three presents that suddenly descended from the Upper realm of this world. One of them is coming over here.]
Xia Jieye looked out in the direction of the city and felt a presence coming over to where he was. The strength of this being is at least a Demigod and it possesses a special bloodline of a Mythical Race. His face remained unmoved regardless of the enemy coming over to him.
“Just a stupid kitten. Does this lord even need to fear it?” grumbled Xia Jieye.
And as if answering to his summon, Bai Yu had appeared before him. He landed on the courtyard destroying the cemented floor and some debris flew all over the area. The stone hits some humans including Lou Lan, Lou Ming, and the Feng Clan servants who protected their unconscious Young Lord Feng Hou.
“Be careful, Master!” yelled Puppet Feng Houye
The loud sound of something falling from the sky was heard. Puppet Feng Houye stood before the God of Void and protected him from the dust and stones flying all over.
“What is this? Ye’er! Why are you protecting that man!?” asked Bai Yu who emerged from within the dust and stones. He is looking at Puppet Feng Houye as if he wronged him and glared at Xia Jieye fearless as he is an all-brawl person with a low IQ. He couldn’t even differentiate the strength between him the White Tiger Heir and an Olden God like the God of Void.
“You! Stay away from Ye’er!” yelled Bai Yu as he pulled Puppet Feng Houye away from Xia Jieye.
Xia Jieye watches the whole scene with a nonchalant expression on his face. As if he would be calm even if the world ends before him.
“What a rude little cat? Puppet, kill it,” said Xia Jieye.
Bai Yu reacted as if he heard something absurd, “Hah! What is this human talking about? Why would Ye’er… Urgh!” he jumped away from the puppet who looked like Feng Houye the Phoenix King.
A bloody hole in his stomach continues to bleed which Bai Yu pressed on to block the blood from flowing out. He looks at the person he loves with his hand-dyed with his blood looking at him with dull eyes and an emotionless face.
Bai Yu was shocked that Feng Houye attacked him and he was taken in surprise that he didn’t dodge it on time.
“W-Why? Cough* Ye’er!?” asked Bai Yu in disbelief. The wound on his stomach is quite deep but not fatal. His internal organs were in disarray thought.
Puppet Feng Houye spoke, “Master’s orders. To kill you.”
Puppet Feng Houye turn his head on him. His eyes were lifeless as if a living corpse. Only when Bai Yu saw Feng Houye’s eyes did he notice the strangeness in the Phoenix King.
Bai Yu was stunned by the realization. He was in disbelief until he smelled the scent of death on Feng Houye before him.
“No way. This is not possible! You are a Phoenix King! How can you end up like this in this low-tier realm!? I don’t believe this!” exclaimed Bai Yu upon witnessing that the person he yearns all day and loves discreetly in the distance is no longer around.
The Phoenix King, Feng Houye is already dead and had become a living corpse before him. A mere puppet made but that dangerous man with the heinous aura surrounding him.
Xia Jieye taunts him further,“A mere chicken and you a mere kitten… So what if you are Mythical creatures with a human form. In front of this lord you are nothing different than an ant existence like how you see humans are…”
“No… NO!!! RRROOOAAARR!!!“
Bai Yu turned to his White tiger form. His size was enough to destroy the whole courtyard. Lou Ming, Lou Lan, and the rest had longed to run away when Bai Yu suddenly appeared. But from the distance, they still had witnessed Bai Yu turn into a huge White Tiger like in the legends.
Lou Lan said, “A White Tiger!!!”
“No way in hell! Those Mythical Creatures really exist in this world!” yelled Lou Ming in shock.
