Chapter 445: 9.64 Second Blue Star - Movements from the Upper Realm
Ye Xiajie finally wakes up from his nightmares. He was gasping for air as if something was strangling him and preventing him from breathing. His whole body is covered in a cold sweat even though his face was not excluded. His eyes were twirling around and he felt dizzy when he suddenly sat up. He groaned once as he held his aching head.
Urgh!
Before he could see his surroundings, he felt a cold hand and a soft handkerchief wiping the sweat on his face. Then he heard his wife, Hei Anjing\'s slightly cold tone yet filled with worry. Due to his nightmares, Ye Xiajie flinched as he didn\'t notice the worried tone from within that cold voice and thought that he was still in his dream.
Hei Anjing spoke, "You\'re finally awake. Is there something wrong?" he asked.
Flinched!
The ghost king slightly reeled back afraid that a knife would come flying towards his heart next. Hei Anjing understood the reason for his husband\'s weird reaction and didn\'t take to heart that flinching action from Ye Xiajie.
Hei Anjing watched beside him and held his hand but didn\'t speak a word after the ones from before. He can see the hidden fear within his husband\'s obsidian eyes and a slight frown. Though he didn\'t know what kind of nightmare his younger cousin had given his husband, just the fact that the content of those dreams came from his other soul made him think that even though the two came from the same origin they truly hated each other. This might be because of his husband\'s overprotective nature and obsession with himself.
He is possessive to the point that he wouldn\'t even allow his other soul to bully his wife which is himself. Just thinking about this, Hei Anjing didn\'t know how to coax either of the two. Coaxing the other meant the latter would be jealous and vice versa.
Ye Xiajie closed his eyes to ease his dizziness. His heartbeats were a bit erratic and tried to calm it slowly. Once his calmness had returned he slowly opened his eyes and saw Xue Hua with argent irises. This only means that the Xue Hua before him is an awakened version of his wife, Hei Anjing.
His deadpan expression but those silver eyes glow with emotions of worry and understanding. The slightly cold and soft hand of his wife made him realize that he is no longer dreaming. Left in a daze, Ye Xiajie just stared at his wife.
Hei Anjing reached out his free hand with a handkerchief and continued wiping his sweat. The two stare at each other\'s eyes as if imprinting each other\'s image in their own soul.
"You had a nightmare and I tried waking you up. But no matter how much I tried to wake you, you didn\'t respond. I\'ve entered your Soul Domain to check and as expected there\'s a dream creature in your domain giving you nightmares.
I\'ve sent it away and waited for you to wake up. I was told that it was your other domain soul, your soul core was the one who ordered you to give you all those nightmares. Are you feeling okay now, my love?" explained Hei Anjing.
Ye Xiajie gently pulled his wife to his embrace. He lowered his head to his wife\'s shoulder and intake the Sweet and Peppermint of blood and snow. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the calmness that he possesses right now. Hei Anjing also hugs him back with his legs wrapped around his husband\'s waist and his arms around his back. Gently patting the Ghost King\'s body, Hei Anjing was once again surrounded with warmth. It was this warmness that he loved the most. This temperature is enough to tell him that his loved one is alive.
Hei Anjing whispered with a mellow and gentle voice, "Don\'t worry my love, I\'m here." The couple hugged each other and no longer went back to sleep because of those nightmares.
"Un!"

The next morning as soon as the sun had risen, a small group led by Young Lord Feng Hou and the Feng Clan\'s special guest Lou Lan had arrived in the Territory of the Low clan. Coming from within the courtyard, Lou Lan and Young Lord Feng looked around and found that most houses and land in this part of the territory had turned to ruins. On some debris Young Lord, Feng Hou had noticed some black traces or burn and charcoal on the stone.
The Young Lord of the Feng Clan observes the area some more. Some traces of heavenly tribulation can be felt lingering on the land.
"Heavenly Tribulation? Did a senior ascend in the Upper Realm?"
mumbled Feng Hou.Lou Lan on the other hand had a different reaction, seeing his former home almost in ruins made him delighted. This is the family that had abandoned him, the same clan who had dirtied his body and destroyed his dignity. Deep inside his heart, he was celebrating that this heinous clan finally got the punishment they deserve.
Lou Lan muttered with an evil smirk on his face, "Serves them right. This is their punishment for harming him. It must be the Ghost King\'s doing to avenge me."
He totally misunderstood. Lou Lan\'s talent for metaphysics is only ordinary and so he never heard about the Tribulation clouds and thunder that could suddenly appear every time someone tries to ascend to Godhood. He thought that the Ghost King did all this when he heard about his supposed bride\'s situation.
Feng Hou ignores Lou Lan\'s mumbling but snorts. He knew that this silly fool was daydreaming in the middle of the day. He ordered his people to knock on the door and inform their Lou Lan about their arrival. But before someone rang the bell of the house, someone from the Lou Clan had come out to welcome them. It was Lou Ming himself.
Lou Ming was a bit sheepish as he welcomed the guest. It was the Old Ancestor who had noticed the arrival of Young Master Feng and his entourage.
"Hope you don\'t mind the rudeness, Young Lord Feng. The Ancestors had informed us about your arrival. Please come in with me," Said Lou Ming.
He had longed to notice his youngest son glaring at him from a distance. He knew that 5mthis youngest son of his must have hated him to the core but he had chosen to ignore him as the standing of Feng Hou is countless times more important than his stupid and useless third son.
"Please go in. This old man will lead the way to where the Ancestors are waiting," said Lou Ming.
Young Lord Feng, "Yes, please go ahead and lead the way, Clan Leader Lou."
Everyone followed inside the gates and walked towards the Lou Clan mansion. Lou Ming had brought them over to the side courtyard which was all cleaned up and repaired for their Old Ancestor. Ever since that nightmarish night of raining thunder, their ancestor, Xia Jieye no longer stays in the basement. Unlike before when he couldn\'t stay much longer under the sunlight his state this time is different. He no longer fears the sunlight.
Lou Ming lowered his head and dared to meet the eyes of the man resting in the pavilion.
"Ancestors, the guests from the Feng Clan had arrived," said Lou Ming with a respectful tone.
At the small pavilion, everyone saw the bewitching and handsome face of Xia Jieye. Wearing a pure black robe from ancient times his pale and white skin glitters under the light. His long black hair flowed behind his back like silk and his refined features were seen by everyone... Though the face of his face is covered in a black mask it is undeniable that this man is an extremely handsome person. He looks like an immortal who had descended in the mortal realm. An atmosphere of danger, aloofness, and elegance can be felt when those crimson eyes have landed on the guest.
Even Feng Hou, who was meeting Xia Jieye for the first time, couldn\'t help but open his eyes wide in shock. His Yin Yang eyes allowed him to see the difference between them and this drop-dead gorgeous being. He is not a human but his aura is that of golden shade but not completely like Xue Hua which is purely golden. This man\'s aura is a mixture of golden and darkness.
\'Who is this person? He feels so inhuman. Is he a God!?\' Thoughts of Feng Hou upon seeing Xia Jieye for the first time.

On the other hand in the Upper Realms.
Standing in front of the gate that leads to the mortal world three figures had gathered. Those who were passing by couldn\'t help by stop and look at the three important figures that were well-known in their realms
The Four Heirs of the Mythical Clan. Unexpectedly, three of those famous young kings had appeared at the gate of the boundary. This is the entrance that separates the Lower and Upper Realms. The Prerequisite to this is that one that would pass through this gate might at least have God Stage cultivation and above.
The heir of the Black Turtle Clan, Gui Se spoke, "You guys came early."
The heir of the Dragon Clan, Long Yi glanced at him before snorting but didn\'t respond to Gui Se\'s words. On the other hand only the heir to the White Tiger Clan, Bai Yu showed excitement within his eyes. He had been waiting all these days to see Feng Houye. He wanted to see the man if he is alive and vowed to take his revenge if Feng Houye had died as Long Yi had said.
"Gui, stop being so slow. We need to go down as planned and look for Ye\'er!" said Bai Yu.
Long Yi rolls his eyes when he heard this but didn\'t comment any further. His goal is different from this stupid tiger. He had to look for the golden soul and separate from these two to go his task. Tough Gui Se knew his intention, Bai Yu didn\'t at the same time he didn\'t want the tiger to know the existence of the golden soul. The fewer his rivals and contender are the better. He just gestures to Gui Se with his eyes to open the gates and lead the way.
Gui Se complained, "Stop hurrying me. Why did I have to get permission to descend for this trip? Sigh!" He then pulled out a token from his robe that would temporarily open the gates so the three of them could pass through.
The golden token in Gui Se\'s hand glowed brightly as he place it before the locked gates. Slowly the gates opened by themselves and everyone watched in awe. Only those would permission from the four Clan Leaders can descend in the Mortal Realm as their blood is needed for the verification that would open the gate of the boundary.
Gui Se spoke, "It\'s open. Let\'s go."
"Good! Ye\'er I\'m coming!~" said Bai Yu.
"Tsk~ Noisy. Go..." said Long Yi.
Only then that the three of them all passed through the gates and descend to the mortal realm together.
