Rebirth: A Woman With Frozen Heart

In Tianshang De Kongjian, Ming Yue spent three hours practicing martial arts under Qing Long and Bai Hu's tutorial. At first Lin Shao and Lin Zhao were only watching but soon they joined in. The reason was because they wanted to be by Ming Yue's side. They didn't want to be a dead weight and troubled Ming Yue. Seeing Ming Yue wanted to be stronger, the twins were motivated by her.

After that, Ming Yue learned Yueliang Hua Jianshu while Lin Shao and Lin Zhao kept on practicing martial art. Well.. at least that was what they intended to do but when they saw the movement of Ming Yue practicing the second stage of Yueliang Hua, they were captivated and watched until the end. They were even surprised due to the sword in Ming Yue's hand. As they were introduced to Silver Moon, Lin Shao's eyes were especially sparkling as if diamonds were in his eyes. He finally got to see a sword with soul intact in it. A talking sword!

Since five hours in Heavenly Space equaled one hour in Mortal Realm, after Ming Yue finished practicing the second stage of Yueliang Hua-- She still hadn't mastered it though, Ming Yue entered her room to cultivate. During this time, the twins were warned by Zhu Que to not disturb Ming Yue because disturbance in cultivation would lead to internal injuries or worse, dying. So the twins practiced martial arts while waiting for Ming Yue.

Meanwhile, Ming Yue was in the middle of concentration, gathering the aura into her body and cultivated it. Her body became so hot as if she was in the middle of burning flame, she focused on channeling the aura from her lower dantian to all her body. Soon like a spark of flame getting bigger, the power surged like a torrent of water.

Outside, the four beasts who were accompanying the twins in martial arts, stopped their movement and looked toward the Moon Palace.

"This.." Zhu Que muttered as she felt the surge of power.

Xuan Wu chuckled, "As expected of Master, She can break through that much."

Lin Shao stared at Xuan Wu and Zhu Que, "Is there something wrong with Sister Yue?" he asked in worry.

"No, My Lady has broken through in her cultivation." Xuan Wu answered with a proud smile as his eyes still locked on the top floor where Ming Yue's chamber was. "As expected of My Lady, she can always exceed my expectation." Xuan Wu's eyes filled with love and adoration.

Lin Shao didn't say anything after that and stared at the Moon Palace instead. He didn't know much about cultivation but he was worried about his Sister Yue.

Qing Long and Bai Hu were the same. In the past, their master always exceed their expectations. She was a genius, really one of a kind.

"She has passed the Qi Condensation and entered Foundation Establishment, no.. she already at the peak of Foundation!" Bai Hu said as he felt the energy came from Moon Palace.

"We don't know yet. The energy keeps on rising, I am worried about her body." Qing Long said.

"Wait.. the energy is stabilizing." Zhu Que said and the four beasts waited in silence.

It took a while before they saw Ming Yue walked out of the Moon Palace and seeing her state, they sighed in relief.

"We thought you're going to breakthrough the peak of foundation, Master." Bai Hu said with a grin on his face.

"I can but I decided to hold it back to let energy stabilize for a while before breaking through." Ming Yue explained. "Oh right, Qing Long I want to learn Qinggong, can you teach me?"

Qing Long gave a warm smile filled with adoration. "Of course, My Lady" He said with a doting tone. It was a rare for Qing Long to express such emotion, probably because this was the first time in a long while Ming Yue requested something from him personally.

"Whatever you ask, This Qing Long will grant it for you" He added and hearing those words, Ming Yue gave him a bright sweet smile.

Yes.. that smile..

The smile that managed to captivate him so much in the past.

The first time he saw that smile, Qing Long knew he was already a lost cause.

'My Lady Chang'e.. How I wish you remember this Qing Long..'

'Remember the time we spent together..'

'If only you hadn't met that man..'

'Then by now.. you and I still live a carefree life in heaven realm..'

Qing Long couldn't help lamented on this fact but he couldn't say it to Ming Yue. He had waited for thousand years, then he could for more even though he also felt impatient.

Lin Zhao's eyes stayed at Ming Yue since the time she walked out of the Moon Palace. Somehow Lin Zhao felt her powerful energy and what surprised her the most was how beautiful Ming Yue became. She was dazzling! Just like a fairy no.. Goddess! Even as a person with the same s.e.x, Lin Zhao couldn't help but be attracted toward Ming Yue.

"Sister Yue, you have become very beautiful.." Lin Zhao murmured the word softly.

"Yeah, I agree.. I mean, Sister Yue was beautiful before but now, her beauty enters another level! It's like she is a goddess!" Lin Shao added, his eyes also never left Ming Yue.

Hearing the twins, the four beasts laughed. "It's because Master is a cultivator. The aura inside the body enhance the beauty. The higher the Aura, the more beautiful a person will be." Explained Zhu Que with a gentle smile.

"Whaaat?!" Lin Shao said in a loud voice, "That's definitely a cheat!"

"I agree. Now I wish I am a cultivator." Lin Zhao said in envious tone. If she didn't feel envious then she would not be a human but she only felt envy, not jealousy.

"Well you can be a cultivator but--"

"Really?!" Lin Shao cut Bai Hu's words, "How?!" He asked in eager tone. Lin Zhao also listened to him, waiting for the answer eagerly.

Bai Hu sighed, "Listen to me first, kids.. For mortals to be a cultivator, they need to have a near death experience. The process will be so painful because mortal body needs to be changed. They need to endure the painful experience for three days three night and if they fail.. only death waiting for them."

Lin Zhao and Lin Shao were stunned, they looked down after hearing Bai Hu's explanation. However Lin Shao was the first one to speak, "If I want to do it despite the dangerous risk, will you assist me?"

"That.." Bai Hu was lost, didn't know what to say.

"I want to do it as well!" Lin Zhao made a decision.

Zhu Que stepped in, "First tell me the reason. Why do the both you want to be cultivators, judging from the answer, we will see whether we should help you or not."

"I have many reasons. I want to be strong, just like Sister Yue. Of course there is a part where I thought being a cultivator is cool, it is what I dream of since the first time I watched those ancient movies! But.." Lin Shao paused and turned his gaze to Ming Yue.

"The main reason is Sister Yue." Lin Shao smiled gently, "Cultivators live longer than mortal. I know she has the four of you and Silver Moon is also included but I want to be by Sister Yue's side.. Forever.."

"Brother Shao.." Ming Yue stared at him, she was stunned by his words.

"As for me, I also want to be strong like Sister Yue and Zhu Que. Yes, I also admit there is a part of me that wants to be as beautiful as the both of you but just like Lin Shao, I want to be with Sister Yue's side more.. I really love the time we have spent together so far." Lin Zhao gazed at Ming Yue with a loving smile,

"Sister Yue.. Ever since I got to know you and the world you are in, I want to be a part of it. I want to be in a world where you live, a dazzling world where I can be with you.. Forever.."

Ming Yue was touched by the twins' words but she had her own worries. "Brother Shao, Sister Zhao.. I am touched by your feelings but.. it's a very dangerous path, I won't be able to look at Father and Mother.. especially Grandfather if something happens to both of you."

"Why don't you both ask for their permissions first?" Bai Hu suggested.

"Bai Hu!" Xuan Wu said his name with a warning.

"What? Doesn't the problem become easy to solve?" Bai Hu asked.

Ming Yue sighed softly and stared at the twins. "Since you both determine to be cultivators, looks like we need to invite Father, mother and grandfather here and explain things."

Looked like today would a very long day as well..
