"You can keep it for a few days. I"m going to need it after some time. I"ll give you a different ring at that time though. The second ring will be filled with even more treasures that are more suited for you." Xu Liang informed Xu Ming." Thank you, father. You"re the best!" Ming let out with a bright smile on his face as he hugged Xu Liang.
"Hahaha… Of course, your father is the best. Do you want to see something special? "Xu Liang asked with an amused smile on his face.
"Yes." Xu Ming nodded his head repeatedly.
"Try focusing your mind on the ring and ask it to disappear. " Xu Liang told Ming.
Xu Ming couldn"t help but look at Xu Liang with a confused look on his face.
"Disappear!" He followed Xu Liang"s advice and asked the ring to disappear.
His eyes opened wide in shock as he saw the ring on his finger disappear.
He knew that the ring was still on his finger as he could still feel it, but it had turned invisible.
"See? This ring can turn invisible as well. To again make it visible, you just have to do the same and ask it to appear. The other ring that I"ll give you will have the same ability as well. It"s good, isn"t it?" Xu Liang chuckled as he informed little Ming.
"Aren"t I better than Uncle Ming??" Xu Liang asked with a proud look on his face.
"Yes, Father is the best." Xu Ming said as he smiled brightly.
"Hah, it looks like little Ming hurt your ego by calling someone else good. You"re trying to bribe him now. Aren"t you?" Yue couldn"t help but burst into laughter as she watched everything from the sidelines.
"I"m doing no such thing. Just giving my dear son a few gifts." Xu Liang immediately declined all such accusations as he let out with an innocent look on his face.
He placed Ming back on the bed.
"You know Yue, there was a time in my life when I thought that I couldn"t survive. I was scared of leaving my only family behind, but I wasn"t able to do anything except wait for my eventual demise. The happiness that I have today, I couldn"t have thought of it even in my wildest dreams. I"m so thankful that I was able to meet you." Xu Liang told Yue as he reminisced about the past. He couldn"t help but think about his past life and remember that feeling.
Yue sat up and moved closer to Xu Liang as she embraced him tightly.
"I"m so grateful that I met you as well." Yue let out softly as she hugged.
" I"ll definitely find a cure to your physique. I promise you." Xu Liang whispered in her ears.
" I believe you." She replied in a caring tone.
"I"m going to the Original Energy room of Father to cultivate. I"ll try to break through to the Immortal Realm in one try, so I might be there for a few days." Xu Liang further told Yue.
" It"s alright. You can go there with your heart at ease. I"ll take care of little Ming." Yue replied to Xu Liang. Although She wanted to spend as much time with her as possible, She didn"t want to be an obstruction in his cultivation.
"Thank you. I"ll be back as fast as I can." Xu Liang let out with a smile as he gave a light kiss on her lips before he turned back and left.
Xu Liang again had a bad feeling in his heart, but he again ignored it. He considered it as the anxiety before breakthrough.
Xu Liang walked deeper into the palace until he finally reached the room that the Heavenly Emperor showed him when he brought him here to teach him about using Origin Energy.
The room had the densest Origin Energy available in the entire Heavenly Realm.
Xu Liang sat down in the center of the room in a meditative position and closed his eyes.
After calming down his restless heart, he began his cultivation.
The densest Origin Energy in the room formed a vortex around Xu Liang. Xu Liang kept absorbing the energy from the vortex and nourished his body and the martial s.p.a.ce inside his dantian.
Time kept pa.s.sing away slowly as Xu Liang was lost in his cultivation. He wanted to break through to the Immortal Realm on a single try, no matter how long it took.
Although the room, he was inside was completely silent, the outside world has started becoming noisy. Various powers had started gathering their forces for reasons unknown.
The people of the Heavenly Realm had also realized that something bad was about to happen. The biggest probability was that the Demon Army was about to attack the Heavenly Realm.
There was an atmosphere of worry in the whole Heavenly Realm.
The day pa.s.sed away and so did the dark night.
It was around 5 in the morning. The Sun was providing the Heavenly City with the necessary warmth, but most of the citizens were sleeping inside their houses at the moment.
"Master!!! Master!!!" A loud voice shocked Xu Liang, who was cultivating in peace.
He opened his eyes and looked at the person who disturbed him in annoyance.
"Mengchan! Why are you disturbing me? What the heck do you need? Can"t you see that I"m cultivating?" Xu Liang screamed loudly as he gazed at the girl standing at the entrance. He was pretty annoyed as his cultivating was interrupted.
"Wait a minute? How did you find this place?" Xu Liang suddenly realized something unusual.
This room was the place that only he and the Heavenly Emperor were supposed to know about. How could Mengchan know about it? He couldn"t understand.
"We don"t have time to talk about that! We... We"re under attack! Princess is in danger!" Mengchan let out hurriedly as she gazed at Xu Liang with an anxious look on her face.
Xu Liang"s face lost all its color as soon as he heard about Yue being in danger. His mind went blank as he ran towards his room like his life depended on it.
He ran with all his might until he finally reached his room. He opened the door as he entered inside but his eyes opened wide in shock as soon as he entered.
