"Sothing's wrong!"
A golden-black robed woman jumped, striding out of her chamber and mumbling, "He hasn't co back for more than a year while accompanying Zenova in treasure hunting, and Rioxys Plu is in danger. I can't sit still and wait for them to return anymore…"
She walked out of the palace and took to the skies when suddenly a few beings appeared before her like rays of light and manifested into celestial beauties.
"Where are you going, elder sister Isabella?" A woman clad in a purple-white robe asked with a faint smile.
Isabella's expression turned worried, "Tia, don't you realize it? You said Rioxys Plu possibly couldn't return, so those two would also not be able to return. After all, didn't Bylai say that Davis would take Rioxys Plu with them?"
"Even if they can't return, what can we do in the Shard Continent where Primarch Stage Calamities lurk?" Tia sighed, "Back then, I was audacious and big brother almost beca tired of because I didn't listen and kept diving, putting myself in danger and harming my health. Do you also want to be in a similar situation as mine?"
"…"
Isabella's brows flickered, and her expression churned.
Naturally, she didn't want to go against Davis's words. Still, she clenched her fists, feeling vexed. Rioxys Plu was her responsibility. Even if this child beca an Exalt Spirit, as ntioned by Bylai, how could she allow her to die?
She couldn't help but recall her failure to protect her father-in-law when Accursed Warlock besieged them. That incident was still a scar in her heart. Hence, not being able to protect those she was supposed to protect didn't still right with her.
Her gaze turned sharp, "I noticed all of you trying to stop from leaving for the past few weeks. However, I must insist on leaving even if no one accompanies ."
"…"
Tia frowned behind her veil, 'Are the threads of fate so difficult to sever? If one is not a Divergent or an exceptional anomaly, they are really thrown around by fate and led to their ultimate destiny of death, unable to make a diverging move.'
She thought, feeling a sense of respect and dread towards the universe.
It seems like no matter how much she tried to convince Isabella otherwise, she really would leap into the danger by herself.
She cast a gaze at Evelynn, and the latter moved without saying a word.
Evelynn slowly flew toward Isabella, "Isabella, I can understand what you're feeling, but venturing out there is suicide. We don't know where exactly they have venture either. Even if we know, they could've ventured off sowhere else."
"…" Isabella clenched her teeth, "Fine, I'll take Nadia with ."
Evelynn appeared before her, embracing her, "Calm down, little sister."
"Once we have a plan, most of us will be willing to go. First, let's find Rioxys Plu's location through divination. Although it would be difficult for Tia to pinpoint her, Bylai does have various items belonging to Rioxys Plu. It shouldn't take long, nor should it harm her. Then, all of us can go together."
"No, that's dangerous…!" Isabella echoed, "Only I and Nadia's doppelganger need to go. I will ride with her concealnt, so the rest aren't required."
"You should at least take Myria."
"I thought too, but she's in seclu…sion…"
"Yes, she is. Therefore, we must wait."
"No… I… have… to go…" Isabella shook her head, faintly feeling sothing was wrong as she moved her head back and looked at Evelynn. Her face was blurry. No, she realized it was her sight was blurry before she fainted and collapsed on Evelynn's shoulder.
She made no sound, but her breathing was stable and rhythmic.
"She finally fainted…" Evelynn said with so disbelief, "A coat of Exalt Grade Sleeping Powder made by Dalila takes more than eight seconds to kick in? It's insane how resistant her physical body has beco with the bloodline of the Chaos Dragon."
Tia and the others descended and smiled wryly at her.
They cast a glance at her shoulder and saw that her purple robe was covered in an invisible speck of powder that forces soone to fall into a deep slumber. With Isabella practically having put up no defenses against her respected elder sister, she fell prey to the sleeping powder rather easily.
"I bet she realized it halfway but refused to believe you were this devious." Tia giggled.
Evelynn's expression froze before she heaved a breath.
"Sigh, I wouldn't take these drastic asures on my sisters. Unfortunately, with you saying that her destiny is to die out there in the Shard Continent, I have no choice. I'll continue to inject paralyzing poison and keep her cultivation sealed with my Hex Laws."
By the ti Evelynn finished, she was done inserting needles into Isabella's nape and had her paralyzed with a special type of harmless yet paralytic poison coated on those needles. At the sa ti, her third eye opened and cast a Sealing Hex on her.
*Whoosh!~*
"Whoa, what's going on?" Mira jumped out from Isabella's soul sea.
Grabbing Isabella's shoulders, she tried to sorsault over Evelynn.
Evelynn extended her eight spider bones and embraced Isabella, not letting her leave.
"Ha!"
However, Mira was still strong enough to pry open the bones as she scread at Evelynn and montarily shook her soul, scrambled her vision. It made Evelynn wobble and loosen the grip on Isabella, allowing Mira to steal Isabella.
Tia's expression churned as though she realized destiny couldn't be stopped.
She hurriedly made hand seals, intending to trap Isabella and Mira here within the fortress within the sealing formation she controlled.
But abruptly, a golden spirit appeared above. She exuded a bright smile as though she couldn't find this anymore amusing. Clasping her hands, two tal hands abruptly erged from the voice between them and enveloped Mira and Isabella, sealing them.
"Ah! lluca, you're courting death! Release !"
Mira roared. She dared to release her power for fear of harming Isabella at close range, and the power she needed to unleash should be beyond her normal, since lluca, the Grand Geocrest tal Spirit, was more powerful than her.
Bylai erged from the palace, "Mira, listen to us! If you take elder sister Isabella and leave, things wouldn't end well…! She would die!"
"The threat of death isn't new to us! We will strive forward and smash the mountains in our path."
Mira echoed with boundless determination, her words reverberating with a righteous endeavor, "No matter what, I will never abandon master and the others. Besides… I… I will rightfully go and save my husband!"
"…" Evelynn and the others could barely digest what she was saying as they tried to co up with a thod to make her stop from taking away Isabella.
"That's enough. Let accompany Isabella since I'm also worried."
At that mont, the world froze.
Both Mira and lluca stopped moving as they listened to this voice. The latter even slightly opened her tallic palms, revealing Mira and Isabella inside.
Myria hovered in the skies, her white hair billowing in the wind in a serene manner. She swept her hand aside as she turned around, appearing to return, but then paused and turned to look at the skies, her pupils dilating.
The different skies of the Wrathful Aeons Shard Region, filled with elental fire and lightning elental energies, now appeared quite empty as the energy was suddenly swept away by a terrifying verdant breeze.
The thunderous skies were now serene, filled with a dense cluster of stars and swirling starry lights.
Far beyond these stars, a pair of spheres the size of a massive celestial object hung grandly amongst the backdrop of the unending void. They were white on the outside and verdant on the inside, gazing down, yet to the eyes of the viewer, they were barely visible.
The next mont, what seed to be a harrumph echoed twice as fire and lightning began to tremble underneath the vast skies. Two pairs of spheres, one sparkling with golden lightning other blazing with scarlet flas, appeared. Between the center of those spheres appeared a golden lightning spear and a burning tree, the world trembling in their presence.
The elents of the Wrathful Aeons Shard Region roared into existence, ascending as though going to war.
This phenonon was caught by many people, yet none of them could witness the truth.
It quickly disappeared as it quickly ca, leaving behind a serene air that left them all trembling from head to toe.
Mira shivered incessantly. Her lips quivered, and her teeth clattered as though she had gone cold. She opened her mouth, "Perhaps it's better to co up with a plan than head out without one. Elder sisters are right…"
"…"
Evelynn and the others couldn't even find the luxury to be speechless.
Their hearts had already dropped, and the dread was evident in their faces even though they couldn't even rember whatever they had managed to glimpse.
Myria also remained frozen, unable to rember what she had just seen. However, the feeling that it was far beyond her senses and sothing she shouldn't concern herself with echoed in her soul again and again.
She listened to her instincts and agreed with Mira, "Mhm, let's wait for a bit more ti. If he doesn't return, we'll set out."
"Okay~" Mira pouted, but her trembling didn't stop.
She led the unconscious Isabella to Evelynn and berated them to treat her, and complained that she would definitely report this action to Davis, making Evelynn feel so fear. However, she trusted that Davis would understand her and Tia's decision to keep Isabella here no matter the cost due to her reaching her final destiny, the fate of death.
A few days later, they received alarming news.
They were shocked.
Rumors that the secret realm's entrances might close in four to six months were abound! They couldn't understand since there were still many years left for that to happen, but now, there wasn't even half a year left.
It was incredulous, making them feel like they had to contact Davis sohow so they could get him back and not leave him here
