-Somewhere in the Real Universe-There was a figure of a man sitting in a nebula, the man was wearing a long purple robe. But the robe wasn"t puffy, therefore his overpowering muscles were clearly visible underneath the purple robe. His long white hair was freely floating around himself, but even that was because of his own will and not because he was in s.p.a.ce.
The man"s eyes were shut, and his face seemed to show that he was an old man, but for some reason, there were no wrinkles on his face. He seemed to be peacefully resting in the nebula, but only he knew how much focus he had to use – as he was using his Divine Sense to see what was happening in his disciple"s Empire.
Time was not relevant to the man and time pa.s.sed by swiftly. No one knew how long time had pa.s.sed by, and without any chance to react, the old man opened his eyes. His dark eyes were so bright that it could shine through several galaxies.
Yes, the old man is Xuan Shang – Izan"s Master. He was patiently waiting for his disciple to return as he knew that it wouldn"t be that long till he would return to the Real Universe.
Xuan Shang"s expression was calm, almost as nothing could ever break his calmness. But his thoughts were rushing through many things, and one thing was the recent ambush on the Empire that his disciple had created.
There was almost nothing that could escape his Divine Sense, and therefore, he knew the reason for the ambush. He knew who had ordered the ambush, and he knew that the current Empire couldn"t protect itself if that "person" showed himself in person. But that wasn"t something Xuan Shang was worried about, because those that were old in the Real Universe, knew that Xuan Shang – the Imperial Preceptor, was protecting the Empire in the shadows.
And as long as that "person" didn"t attack personally, the Empire would stand tall without the need of Xuan Shang to personally act. Xuan Shang didn"t even need to sigh or shake his head as his thoughts were running through whilst mumbling. "My Dear Disciple, I will let you deal with them after your return. But… with your current pace of strength, you won"t be ready for that…" Xuan Shang"s ancient voice sounded out as a whisper, but the sound seemed to break the nebula. His lips slowly curved upwards for some reason and showed a very gentle smile.
At the current strength of Xuan Shang, he could notice a few things in the Fake Universes, and because of a "certain" power spike appearing, he had managed to find his disciple"s aura.
"When the time is right, I will show you the path which you painstakingly followed… The path you chose yourself, to the top…" Xuan Shang"s gentle smile slowly vanished as he sensed "something" appearing behind him, but Xuan Shang didn"t bother moving a single motion because of that.

"What are you doing here, Ru? I thought that we had an agreement, that you will not bother me till my dear disciple has returned." Xuan Shang"s soft whispers turned into something that wasn"t someone would think was possible, as his voice seemed to be deep and it brought a force that was unimaginable. Xuan Shang was letting off a pressure that instantly destroyed the nebula he was staying in and the nearby galaxies.
Xuan Shang slowly turned around, his expression was still calm, but there was a glint in his eyes. The "thing" in front of Xuan Shang was merely a shadow of a figure. The shadow was barely visible, but Xuan Shang saw it clearly.
The "thing" – Ru, was standing there, not moving. It didn"t care about Xuan Shang"s pressure destroyed a couple of galaxies. It began speaking in a cold tone that seemed to be slightly feminine. "Neither one of us are afraid of each other, are you willing to fight once again, Xuan Shang? And, are you sure that you will win if I really wanted to kill you?" Ru"s cold voice seemed to faint, but Xuan Shang heard it clearly.
"And you are willing to bet that you can defeat me?" Xuan Shang responded shortly, Xuan Shang wasn"t afraid of anyone, and a mere threat couldn"t hold him back. But before he could spread out his Divine Pressure, he heard Ru speak once again.
"I am not here for a fight, I am here for something else." Ru"s voice was cold, she continued speaking when she sensed Xuan Shang"s pressure being removed. "Your "eyes" has been in my universe for the past ten million years because you wanted to give My Son a welcome back party… But, till then, I need you to do something for me."
Xuan Shang barely squinted his eyes, it wasn"t often that such a "thing" as Ru to ask him for help. He beckoned her to continue with his gaze.
"Go "outside" and help my creations stall for enough time until My Son has returned." After having said this, Ru vanished from her spot.
Xuan Shang didn"t move for a long time, if he wished to, he could simply ignore Ru, but he didn"t do so. Because he knew, that the outsiders that were attempting to invade the Real Universe could possibly create enough chaos and that chaos could lead to the death of his dear disciple in the near future.
After having thought through everything, he gently spoke to the air, but he knew that the person he wanted to listen, would hear him speak. "Ru, you owe me one after this."
