"I couldn"t. Father ordered her to inform you as soon as you wake up. She wouldn"t leave as she said that you might wake up at any moment." Yue said with a wry smile on her face.She sat up as the blanket covering her body slid down. Xu Liang"s eyes couldn"t help but look down but she hurriedly covered her chest with a crimson face before he could get a clear view.
"Can... can you close your eyes for a moment?" Yue said in a low voice.
"Well, we"ve already done it. Is there something that I haven"t seen yet?" Xu Liang let out with a wry smile on his face, though he still closed his eyes.
Yue stood up on the bed and wore the clothes that were hidden by her blanket. In about a few minutes, she got dressed properly.
She opened her mouth to say something but she closed her lips and didn"t say anything. A mischievous smile appeared on her face. She walked closer to Xu Liang with soft steps.
She reached near him and kissed him lightly. As soon as her lips touched his, Xu Liang moved his arms and wrapped it around her waist as he responded to her kiss pa.s.sionately.
After a long kiss, Yue separated from him as she breathed heavily. Her drunk eyes still looked deep in Xu Liang"s eyes as she licked her lips.
"Brother Liang... The thing that happened yesterday..." Yue seemed like she wanted to say something.
"Do you love me as well?" She asked as she finally gathered her courage.
"I do. I don"t know why, but there"s an urge inside me that keeps attracting me towards you. I want to take care of you! I want to protect you! I could do all that as your brother, but there"s something inside me that wants more. I"m not sure why, but I have fallen for you..." Xu Liang gazed in her eyes as he shared his feelings. Even he himself couldn"t understand what he was feeling, all he knew was that he desired Yue.
Yue came forward as she hugged Xu Liang tightly.
"What about father? Should I tell him or keep it a secret? I"m willing to do both as long as I can spend my life with you." She said with a concerned tone.
"I don"t want to keep it secret. I will tell father when the time is right. What happens next will depend on him" Xu Liang replied in a gentle tone.
They stayed like that for quite some time. They separated as someone knocked on the door.
"Come in!" Xu Liang said in a loud tone.
"Master! I brought breakfast!" Mengchan said as she opened the door and walked inside.
"Give it to Yue. I"ll go talk to Father." Xu Liang said as he pa.s.sed by her and left the room.
"Hmm? If he wasn"t hungry, then why did he ask for breakfast? Oh..." Mengchan muttered with a doubtful look before she smiled as if she realized the reason.
She walked towards Yue and placed the plate in front of her.

Xu Liang stood in front of the Heavenly Emperor as he waited for him to speak.
"Liang"er! Since when can you use Origin Energy to cultivate?" Heavenly Emperor asked in a serious tone.
"Hmm? Origin Energy? What are you talking about father? Isn"t origin energy something that people with the purest of bloodlines from the Demon or Heavenly Realm can use? " Xu Liang responded with a confused look on his face.
"So you have no idea about it, do you?" Heavenly Emperor said as he shook his head.
"About what?"
Xu Liang still couldn"t understand what he was talking about.
"Today, I was able to see you use the origin energy to cultivate!" Heavenly Emperor said in a heavy tone.
"Me? Origin Energy? How can I use the origin energy? " Xu Liang asked loudly with a disbelieving look on his face.
"Isn"t that a question that I should ask?" The Heavenly Emperor had a wry smile on his face as he looked at Xu Liang.
"Have you recovered your memories of the time before we met?" The Heavenly Emperor asked another question.
Xu Liang shook his head in denial.
"If only you could recover your memories, we might be able to get some of the answers." Heavenly Emperor said with a thoughtful look on his face.
"You don"t have to worry though, you being able to use the Origin Energy is really advantageous to you. Tomorrow I"ll begin teaching you how to properly utilize the origin energy for cultivation." Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said as he looked at Xu Liang.
"Thank you, Father." Xu Liang replied with a smile.
"Oh right! Why were you cultivating inside Yue"s room that early in the morning."" The Heavenly Emperor asked him as he thought about something.
"Yea, that"s something I wish to talk to you about. I came up to her room for something yesterday. In the middle of our conversation, Yue started screaming in pain and lost consciousness. Aunt Wen Yin checked her and said that it was normal for her. She said that it"s because of her physique. Is there really nothing that we could do?" Xu Liang asked as his expressions became serious.
"It happened again?" Heavenly Emperor asked with a sad look on his face.
"I am the ruler of the heavenly realm, yet I can"t help my own daughter! " Heavenly Emperor out as he looked upwards.
"If only I could find the Desolation Empress, I would be able to discover something! Where in the h.e.l.l did she disappear to? " He muttered as he remembered the stories he heard about the Desolation Empress.
"You can go now! You don"t need to worry about it. I"ll do anything to find a cure for her." Heavenly Emperor said as he gazed at Xu Liang.
"Ah...alright," Xu Liang Said as he left. He wished to talk more, but he realized that it was not an appropriate time to do that.
"Desolation Empress..." Xu Liang muttered a name as he left the room of the Heavenly Emperor.
After leaving, he went straight to the Royal Library.
