Sternritter Calendar

Ling Yun stood whilst wielding his sword as the sword energy fluctuated around him. Yet he did not move; the opponent was a girl, and in addition to that, her age and profound energy were all much lower than his, that's what he thought.

Thus, he naturally wouldn't take action first. Xia Qingyue raised her jade hand, and amidst the flashing of cold light, a crystal clear longsword of ice had already appeared in her hand. With the channeling of Frozen Cloud Arts, the surrounding ice spirits floated around her.

*CLANG!*

The ice longsword and the Celestial Yuan Sword clashed immediately. Jean watched the two of them fight with a slightly bored face, even if Xia Qingyue was something else than what he thought, it didn't mean that the fight would be interesting…

They continued to use techniques against each other, new and bizarre movements came out, and finally something more interesting happened… But it didn't made Jean happy about it…

First, Xia Qingyue's face was revealed since her veil fell down, and the arena turned silent. Even if Jean was slightly surprised from this, it wasn't this the problem, the problem were the people around the arena, and the fact that Ling Yun fell in love with her.

Jean: Those little insects…

Ling Yun wasn't the only one, though…

In the Xiao Sect, two of the sect master's sons wanted her…

Meanwhile, Xia QIngyue revealed her profound strength, which was at the 3rd level of the Earth Profound Realm, and pummelled Ling Yun in the ground. Even after Ling Jie gave Ling Yun the Celestial Yang Sword, just like it happened before, he wasn't able to win…

And surprise! Since thanks to her Nine Profound Exquisite Body, her profound energy was almost infinite, she was able to use a domain even if she was 2 great realms away from the requirements.

And so, the profound stone was again erected in the center of the Sword Discourse Arena, and two people's names came out.

Blue Wind Imperial Family's Dennell Jean versus Frozen Cloud Asgard's Xia Qingyue.

Soon, night fell. Under the moonlight, Xia Qingyue sat silently beside a lotus pond, deep on her thoughts. A cool breeze blew, and a snow white image appeared next to her without a sound. Xia Qingyue lowered her gaze, stood up, and then bowed.

Xia Qingyue: Senior Master.

Chu Yuechan nodded faintly, then extended her jade like hand which held a pellet. The pellet was snow white, and exuded a light that was similar to the moon.

Chu Yuechan: You used your Domain today, and slightly wounded your vitality. At this rate, you will only recover sixty percent of your energy by tomorrow, but after taking this pellet, you can completely recover.

Xia Qingyue: Frozen Soul Heaven Returning Pellet… Frozen Soul Heaven Returning Pellet is a priceless treasure, it shouldn't be wasted on Qingyue.

Chu Yuechan: You are Frozen Cloud Asgard's future pillar and hope. The position of Asgard Mistress will also belong to you in the future. Any treasure that is used on you would never be a waste. If you intend to fight against that monster tomorrow, take it.

Xia Qingyue hesitated a moment, before she took it and placed it in her mouth.

Xia Qingyue: Thank you Senior Master.

Chu Yuechan: Qingyue, for the battle tomorrow, do not underestimate your opponent, and even more importantly, don't ever lower your guard for a single instant. That monster is not normal even in the Sky Profound range of cultivators… Even I doubt that I could have a chance to win.

He is able to turn invisible and intangible, and maybe even regenerate.

Xia Qingyue: Yes, I will remember Senior Master's advice. Qingyue has a presumptuous question to ask Senior Master…

Chu Yuechan: You would like to know why I know it?

Xia Qingyue: Yes…

Chu Yuechan: Previously, I left the Asgard to hunt for three Sky Profound Cores so you can refine the Frozen Heart Liquid Jade. When I obtained the third profound core, I accidentally got poisoned. After that, I met him and he helped me cure the poison, and I ended up owing him a favor.

In that moment, due to some problem, I ended up almost killing him, but not only did he stand up, his power slightly increased and his body regenerated.

Some time later, I needed to protect him during his journey at the Wasteland of Death, but even if he encountered many people, he would either turn invisible or intangible to dodge their attacks, for then to kill them.

Finally, due to some other problems, we encountered two Flood Dragons that were at the peak of the Sky Profound Realm. At that time, that monster was at the True Profound Realm.

However, he asked me to leave and so I did, I turned some minutes later, after midnight, but the only thing I found was some puddles of blood, but it came from the Flood Dragons, I didn't found any trace of Jean. It is certain that he was able to kill them both, I doubt there is a treasure capable of limiting one's profound strength from the SKy Profound Realm to the True Profound Realm.

In exchange, can you answer a question?

Xia Qingyue: Senior Master, please ask.

Chu Yuechan: When I taught you Frozen Cloud Arts, I checked your awareness, and found out that you did not really like to train, but had a very strong d.e.s.i.r.e to obtain greater power. Can you tell me the reason?

Xia Qingyue: Because of... my Mother… Father and mother's meeting was very magical... When father met mother outside of the city, she was in a coma and her entire body was covered with blood.

After she woke up, she did not have any of her memories, and her body was extremely weak... Then, mother married father, and because her body was weak, giving birth to me was very difficult, and I narrowly escaped death…

When I was 4 years old, mother suddenly regained her memories... She left, like a fairy she flew away and left... When she left, she hugged me and my brother while crying pitifully, saying that if she didn't leave, she would bring calamity to the whole family.

She said that where she was going, was a place called the Domain of the Gods. It was a place that we could never get to... After that, even though father stayed strong, I often see him shed tears quietly when he was alone.

After more than 10 years, he never remarried... Brother was so young and ignorant, but when growing up, the thing that he envied the most, was that others people had mothers…

Chu Yuechan: Domain of the Gods? Do you know what kind of place it is?

Xia Qingyue: I don't know. I have researched many ancient books, but I never encountered this name.

Chu Yuechan: The reason you pursue profound power is so that you can reach a level high enough to learn this name, correct?

Xia Qingyue: Mn… I only want a reunited family. Even though this goal is very far, I believe that as I climb higher and higher, I will inevitably be able to see the silhouette of my mother one day…

At this moment, the sound of deliberately soft footsteps came from outside the courtyard. Soon, a clear voice drifted over from the main door of the courtyard.

?: This one is Xiao Sect's Xiao Kuangyu. I would like to meet the Fairy of Frozen Moon, Xia Qingyue... This one does not have any other intentions.

It's just that I have an frozen jade hairpin which suits the Fairy of Frozen Moon. Only when matched with the Fairy of Frozen Moon, would this treasure not be wasted. And also…

Before Xiao Kuangyu could finish speaking, Chu Yuechan extended her hand and pushed. A stream of solidifying cold energy suddenly rushed forth and sealed the courtyard's main entrance with a thick ice wall three meters in height.

The stream of cold energy that rushed towards him caused Xiao Kuangyu to pale in fright, and he speedily retreated. Even though his face was twitching with anger, he did not dare to say anything. He had no option but to forcefully clench his teeth as he angrily left with a flick of his sleeve.

Meanwhile, in the Blue Wind Imperial Family's courtyard, Jean was also looking at the moon that stood high in the sky. He was thinking about what Fen Juechen and Cang Yue said before. Should he take them with him?

They were a bit weak, Cang Yue was a True Profound Cultivator while Fen Juechen was a Spirit Profound Cultivator. But the journey could help them. However it would depend on their families' decisions.
