60 Chapter 60

"Haa....."

Finally, Xiao opened his eyes as he woke up from his earlier state, looking around he could see that he was back in the room he was in before, seeing that he was back he finally sighed, relaxing his nerves a bit but his mind still reeled about the earlier encounter

'Gravewalker? Worldiard clan?'

What the hell were those? this was the first time that Xiao had heard about them, moreover, how did he reach that place? what was that place? many questions started to swirl within Xiao's mind giving him a headache, Xiao closed his eyes as he took a deep breath to regain his calm, right now he was in the dark and he could only make use of what give to him

'Calm down, calm down...'

'Looks like I need to get 'that' soon'

Xaio was planning on collecting 'that' treasure a bit later but since his cultivation rose this mich, it might be possible to get it, leaving it aside

Xiao's mind started to think about what had happened, the first thing he understood was that the being that sat on the throne wasn't his enemy but it also doesn't mean that it was his ally too, also he started to think about what it had said, it said that he was about to face an ordeal? right now Xiao was in a world where everything seemed to be going in a way that leads to war

Thinking till here Xiao's eye's opened as a hardened look came to his face, anything that such a powerful being could label as an 'ordeal' is not something that Xiao could consider simple, Xiao controlled his powers as he focused on something that was hidden within him, he could feel a 'sword' buried deep within him, awaiting his will to be wielded

Even though Xiao couldn't measure its exact power he could least see that it's extremely powerful and it would be helpful in the upcoming troubles, it was then Alex spoke breaking Xiao out of his thoughts

"Are you alright?"

Looking towards Alex and the others Xiao nodded his head calmly as he spoke

"Yes, I'm alright, thank you for your help"

? "It's nothing, I am just happy to help"

Hearing Alex's words Xiao nodded his head as he looked towards Naria, he hadn't forgotten what she had asked of him, he lifted his hands as a raging purple flame that demanded respect came upon it, causing the rest to widen their eyes with surprise, which soon changed to unbridled happiness, Alex even shed a single tear from sheer joy as his body trembled

Seeing it Xiao remained passive, how could he understand the feelings of these people who were from a young looked down on? people who believed they would never truly be special in their life? in this case, he could only look at the faces of all these people trembling with happiness but soon all this stopped as they all regained their bearing

"Thank you"

Naria said as she looked at me, right now within her eyes burned a deep desire, a desire to be not looked down on anymore, not only her the rest too had the same thought, Xiao didn't say anything as he asked the question that was within him

"So can we go out now?"

But just as he had asked this question, a loud sound was heard outside and after this, the entire room he was in started to shake with intense strength

Screeeeehhhhhh

A huge pained scream of a phoenix spread across the realms, at the same time the Qi around the room and everywhere else started to get chaotic, powerful auras started to appear everywhere, sounds of bell started to be heard everywhere, Xiao clutched the sofa he was in, soon the quaking stopped as he stood up from the place he was sitting in,

"What's happening?"

Xiao asked as he looked at Alex, who now looked pale, soon he and the others regained themselves as Alex spoke

"Th-They are here"

Hearing this Xiao's eyes narrowed as he understood the underlying meaning within Alex's words, soon a sense of emergency filled his mind as he thought about Yun Yurou but he calmed himself down, thinking that she was within the safest place possible, Xiao stayed quiet for a moment as he started thinking of his next move, right now he was locked up here, it looked safe but there was no telling how things would proceed

"Sam, can see if the guards are still outside?"

Xiao asked as he could see that Sam was the closest to the door, hearing it Sam walked towards the door looking outside, after a quick look he turned towards Xiao as he shook his head, now this was a dilemma, either Xiao could stay within this room which seemed 'safe', soon his reached his answer as he spoke

"I will be leaving"

"No"

Aleezer spoke as he looked at Xiao

"This is the best place for you right and if the lords find that you have left this room they could pin it on us"

The rest of the teens also agreed to it but started Alex was silent, as he had lived much longer, he could see more than others and he could understand some things they couldn't, looking at Xiao he asked

"Are they here for you?"

Hearing it the room became silent, Xiao stayed silent for a moment before which he nodded his head, he could understand from the words of the woman earlier that he was wanted by these Scyllas and he Xiao wasn't someone that would wait for his death, seeing Xiao's agreement many of them became pale,

"I see, then let's go"

"Father!"

Aleezer shouted as he looked at Alex but he didn't pay any mind as he asked Xiao

"Do you have anything capable of dealing with the Qi pressure?"

"Yes"

Xiao affirmed, if it was before, he wouldn't be able to handle the pressure of the Qi outside but the sword that was 'gifted' to him helped him deal with this problem

"Then, where would you like to go?"

"First, I would like to know what's happening"

"Okay"

With that, Alex moved as he covered Xiao and the rest with his Qi as he exited from the room, the place Xiao was in was humongous, with Xiao's cultivation it might take years before they would be able to reach the place Xiao wanted to go to, soon they were moving through the hallways of the place Xiao was in and just as he had appeared outside the room the sword within him trembled as a certain pressure was released outside, convering Xiao, neglecting the Qi pressure

Soon Xiao could feel them going through a spatial gate and the next moment he was outside a huge castle that was floating in the highest position which was surrounded by hundreds of beautiful islands,

In front of him, myriad immortal mountains and islands floated in the air, releasing divine lights that rushed towards the sky, Spiritual mist floated everywhere, and the entire territory was shrouded by a terrifying formation that shone with bright flares that resembled the brilliance of the sun and the moon
