Rebirth: A Woman With Frozen Heart

It was the third day that Ming Yue got from school. After returning from shopping, Ming Yue spent most of her time in Tianshang De Kongjian. She used it mostly for cultivating, learning qinggong from Qing Long and learning medicine and acupuncture from Xuan Wu. Except for lunch and dinner, Ming Yue wouldn't come out of her room. This behavior of course made the maids and head butler frowned in suspicion but they couldn't say anything because the Wu family didn't say anything.

Of course the Wu family didn't say anything. They knew that Ming Yue was busy in Heavenly Space and if they needed to ask her something, they would call or text her if it was important. The Wu family knew that Ming Yue was cultivating to be stronger because of the demon man she met at the mall.

"So there are several methods to classify ancient medicinal." Ming Yue spoke while standing next to Xuan Wu.

In front of them was a table made by the finest wood that only existed in Heaven Realm, The sacred tree. On that table, many herbs were displayed. Both of them were currently inside Lu Yueliang Chamber, or it can be said 'The Green Moon Chamber'.

Inside the Moon Palace in Heavenly Space, there were many chambers. It was called 'Six Moon Chambers' which are :

1. Full Moon Chamber, it was the chamber where the master of Moon Palace resided. It was located at the top of the palace, which covered the whole fourth floor.

2. New Moon Chamber, This chamber was located at the third floor which covered the east part while empty rooms covered the west part. New Moon Chamber was where all books that Chang'e had collected, were safely kept. In other words, a library. Of course the books inside this chamber not only came from Mortal Realm, but it was from Heaven Realm and Demon Realm as well.

3. Crescent Chamber, it was located at the center of second floor. This place was the resting place of Silver Moon and the place where she cultivated her energy after absorbing the soul of enemies she killed.

4. Half Moon Chamber, it was a secret chamber located within the Crescent Chamber. This place was where all the precious treasures were kept, such as jades, jewelries, gold, sacred weapons and divine elixirs. That was the reason why it was hidden within the Crescent Chamber.

5. Green Moon Chamber, it was located at north part of the first floor in Moon Palace. This chamber was like a clinic. There were beds for patients, drawers filled with many kinds of rare and magical medicinal herbs, tools and cauldrons for making elixirs and special room that had pill furnace for refining pills.

6. Red Moon Chamber, it was located at the south east of the first floor in Moon Palace. This chamber was where the Divine furnace existed. Divine Furnace was used for Armament Refining. It could produce sacred weapons and aura armors. Magical and rare materials for the refining were stored in this chamber as well.

"Yes." Xuan Wu answered, standing next to Ming Yue with one hand behind his back. "The first method you need to know is 'The Four Natures' which known as Siqi." He explained

"Those four natures are Hot, Warm, Cool, Cold or Neutral. Hot and warm herbs are used to treat cold disease, while cool and cold herbs are used to treat heat diseases."

"Hmm.. Interesting. I have been meaning to ask about pill refining but I guess I have to learn the very basic first." Ming Yue touched her chin, drowned in contemplation.

Xuan Wu stared Ming Yue's figure from the side, his eyes filled with love and adoration. He remembered that Chang'e loved learning new things and couldn't help but fascinated by all knowledge she came across.

Xuan Wu lifted his hand and pointed at one herb, "This herb, do you remember what it's called?"

"Ai Ye." Ming Yue answered, "The leaf of Argy Wormwood."

"Then do you know what is the nature of this herb?" Xuan Wu asked, tilting his head slightly with a smile full of love on his face.

"Hmm.." Ming Yue took the leaf and examined it for while before sighing and shook her head. "I don't know." She answered dejectedly.

Chuckling softly, Xuan Wu c.a.r.e.s.sed Ming Yue's cheek with the back of his fingers. "No need to be so dejected. Of course you don't know because you have studied only for a short while. Besides.." Xuan Wu paused and playfully smirked at Ming Yue,

"No one examine herbs like you did~ As expected of an amateur~"

"You..!" Ming Yue slapped his arm hard then walked away from the table, "I'm out!"

Laughing hard, Xuan Wu caught her wrist and pulled Ming Yue into his embrace. Ming Yue who was caught off guard, was pulled and by the time she came to her senses, she was already in Xuan Wu's warm embrace. She felt Xuan Wu's c.h.e.s.t trembled as he laughed softly so close to her ear.

"You always look lovely when you are angry~" Xuan Wu murmured in gentle and loving tone, his hand lovingly c.a.r.e.s.sed Ming Yue soft and silky black hair.

Within his embrace, Ming Yue frowned slightly. She felt comfortable within Xuan Wu's embrace because she thought of him as family, an gentle older brother. However his action was currently was not 'brotherly like' and Ming Yue felt a sudden slight of fear.

"Xuan Wu, I seriously want to study medicine here." Ming Yue spoke her mind, "I don't have time to play around."

A short silence descended before Xuan Wu released Ming Yue from his embrace, "I know." Xuan Wu gently replied, still wearing the same loving smile.

Patting Ming Yue's head, Xuan Wu added. "I just want to ease your bad mood."

Hearing his words, Ming Yue felt a sense fo relief. Her fear turned out to be wrong. She feared that Xuan Wu might have different kind of feeling judging by his action just now. Ming Yue didn't want to hurt him nor she wanted their relationship became awkward because of it.

She, who had decided to freeze her heart toward the feeling called 'Love',

She, who had decided to live her life to the fullest,

She, who had discarded the wish and hope for something called 'Love Relationship',

She, who had decided to stay single for the rest of her life,

Feared that feelings of 'Love' would destroy the peaceful life she had right now.

"Okay, now let's continue." Ming Yue said as she returned to her spot and pointed at the leaf. "What is the nature of this herb?"

Xuan Wu's smile grew wider as he started explaining. "The nature of Ai Ye is hot. This herb has the ability to warm the channels and stop bleeding. Moreover, it can dispel cold and stop the pain from internal injuries."

"I see, a rare herb indeed." Ming Yue nodded, focusing on hearing the lecture. "How to use it?"

"Boil two leaves with three glass of water and reduced to one glass the split in half. One to drink at morning and one to drink before sleeping." Xuan Wu answered.

*Knock Knock*

Knocking sound came from the door and soon it was opened from the other side. Zhu Que entered along with Fan Mei. Ming Yue was surprised to see her mother in Heavenly Space. More over, there was worry painted clearly on her face. In her hand was a silver colored tablet.

"Mother? Why are you here? What's wrong?" Ming Yue bombarded her with questions but Fan Mei didn't say anything but gave Ming Yue the tablet instead.

Taking the tablet from her mother's hand, Ming Yue stared at the screen and soon her eyes widened as she read what was shown there.

[NEWS FLASH!]
