Heavenly Opposers

Xiao's eyes widened from the beautiful scenery he was gazing at, hundreds of such powerful palaces, islands, and lands floated far and wide, while powerful aura that belonged to different individuals could be felt, after all not only phoenix lived within the world of Nirvana, there are countless beings within this world with the phoenix's being the leader that rules over this higher plane

But Xiao wasn't able to enjoy this breathtaking scenery for long as a second quake hit the place shaking it, Xiao could hear the sounds of cracks as the powerful barrier that was covering this place was cracking, seeing it Xiao's eyes narrowed, he could tell that whatever was outside was not something that could be taken lightly

"W-What's happening?"

The shy looking blue-haired Momin spoke with a pale look but soon they seemed to understand something as a revolting and chaotic feeling started to build around them as the surrounding Qi started to act out of control, Xiao's body trembled naturally as he felt a familiar feeling, similar to the entity he had faced before but right now the feeling was at least 10 times worse

He could feel his body revolting at this, soon powerful auras started to appear from within the different palaces and islands, the very surroundings trembled to their power, the heat within the surrounding increased heavily, the enraged roars of the phoenixes resounded around the world, feeling their pride being trampled upon

Hundreds of figures flew out of different places heading in a single direction, it was a beautiful sight to gaze upon but the hardened expression of the people floating away spoke something else, Xiao gazed at all this as an idea about the situation formed within his mind

"The Skylla's they are here"

Alex spoke with a pale face, hearing it Xiao understood that the situation was grim!, his instincts were screaming danger and from the earlier words, he could understand that they were here for him and Yun Yurou, it might not be bad for Yun Yurou since now she's a full-fledged Phoenix but it was different for him since he was human!

If it came to it, they wouldn't mind sacrificing him for their safety, alas Xiao had no idea about the marking ceremony that Yun Yurou had done with him, if he did, then he wouldn't have thought so, soon Xiao realized that he had to get out of here or at least hide at a safe place but even before he could do anything he felt his entire being frozen

"Oh? your better, that's good"

A playful voice reached his ear causing his eyes to widen at the familiar voice, after all, how could he forget the voice of the woman that had sent him into a flaming hell!, Xiao moved his eyes as he looked up, seeing the beautiful woman with a face similar to Yun Yurou, currently beside her floated Yun Yurou who was similarly being retained

Even before Xiao could say anything, he lifted off with the others, without being able to do anything as their powers were completely lesser than the current Empress of the Phoenix, the one named as one of their greatest genius, Xiao only felt a blur and the next moment he was floating above a sky along with several others

It took a few seconds for Xiao to regain his mind as he gazed at the scene in front of him and it gave him chills, right in front of him floated millions of different types of beings that he had killed before but the difference was that just one among the one in front of him was enough to kill him with a gaze

Xiao could feel the black flame within him trembling with desire to come out but Xiao controlled it, unlike the first time he's now able to control it barely, as he restrained it from bursting out of his body, right now at this battlefield he doesn't have a place, Xiao wasn't able to focus on it for long as all the people that was floating gave way as they bowed to their Empress, even the old fogies, elders, and ancestors gave her nod

But all their eyes widened as they gazed at Xiao and Yun Yurou who was brought here against their wish

"Amber! why did you bring them here?!"

The woman that was the ancestor from before came in front of Amber The Empress, as she looked at her with anger, hearing it Amber was nonchalant as she looked at the ancestor as she spoke

"They need to see this, it would be good for their future path, plus they should know our sacrifices if they ever in the future feel that we weren't fair"

Amber's words were clear and precise spreading across to everyone that was paying attention, many were confused but to the higher-ups they understood the deeper meaning behind it as their looks were a bit complicated, in the end, they shook their heads as they focused on the enemy in front of them

Meanwhile, the ancestor calmed down as she heard Ambers words before which she looked at Xiao and Yun Yurou for one last time as she walked away, she knew how stubborn Amber was and right now she's the Empress and she didn't want to undermine her power

"Let me go!"

At the same time, Yun Yurou finally spoke as she angered eyes focused on Amber, finally, she looked at Xiao trying to see if he was hurt seeing that he was fine her eyes narrowed as the power within her rumbled at her rage but all it took was a single swing from Amber's hand as that power disappeared, Amber gazed at Yun Yurou as she spoke

"Watch"

Is all she spoke as she left the ones she lifted off floating in the sky as the most powerful moved out as they traveled towards the Skylla's that seemed to be the strongest as they stood above the rest with gleaming intelligence in their eyes, the ones that were left behind were unable to understand anything as the powerful talked among themselves

Everyone watched as some kind of talk took place but they weren't able to understand much, soon an earthshaking roar took place that shook everyone that watched, they could see that Amber roaring to the sky with reddened eyes with a maddened glint, it wasn't just her the rest too looked royally pissed!

Soon Amber was pulled by the rest as a huge sound of a drum being hit spread across the world was heard, somehow it was heard within the mind of every being, and all those that heard it had a hardened expression as they understood the meaning behind it

War was Here!
