Unabletothinkofawaytoargueback,YunXisurrenderedwitharaisedhandandlaidonthegroundcarelessly,staringattheunfamiliarceilingwitheyesthatseemedtoseethrougheverythingintheworld.

Hmm,atthismoment,hefelttheneedforgreatenlightenment,todistancehimselffromthehustleandbustleoftheworldandmaintainaserenemind.

Yes,justasthewiseBuddhistmonksoftensay,it’stimetosilentlyrecite"Formisemptiness,emptinessisform."Didn’tMasterMahaMysterysayhehasaconnectionwithBuddhism?

"MayI..."YunXi’sBuddhistversewasjustbeginningwhensuddenlyhefeltachillingsensation.

"Godie!Godie!Godie!"SeeingYunXiwithafacethatwantedtoactdumb,PassedPrincessbecamefuriousandharshlysteppedonYunXi’sfacewithherlittlewhitefeet.

"Uh,areyouourancestor?"AdleylookedattheenragedPassedPrincessandsawaglimpseofherownsisterinher.

Hersisterwasalsoterrifyingwhenangry.

"Hmph,yourwordsmustbeadescendantofmysister."PassedPrincesscontinuedtostepandkick,finallykeepingYunXifromenteringtherealmofemptinessandcausingthedarkcloudsintheskytograduallydisperse.

"Well,it’sbettertocloseyoureyesandbearespectablegentleman."YunXiclosedhiseyes,allowingthosetwosnowylittlefeettosteponhisfaceandchest.

Itdoesn’thurtanyway,justconsideritalittlepost-wargame.

Hewasverytired.

WhenYunXifellasleepfromexhaustion,thegirlswhoalsohadthebloodlineofthevirginpalacequicklybecamefriendlyduetotheircommonbackgroundandtopics.

"Ineverexpectedthatthebloodlineofmysisterwouldbepasseddowntoyourgeneration."Afterbeingtiredfromwalking,PassedPrincesssatuprightonYunXi’sneck,withherfeetapart,usingaladylikeduckposture.

Althoughherweightwasaslightasair,evenlighterthanaduck,thesleepingYunXithoughthewascoveredbyafragrantandsoftblanketemittingthescentofayounggirl.

"Hmm,accordingtothegenealogy,therehavebeenaboutafewhundredgenerationsbetweenus..."Donotunderestimatetheinheritanceofthedivineeratower.Sincethistowerhasbeenmanagedbythedivineerawarlocksofthevirginpalace,thelivesofalltheowners,fromthefirstgenerationtothecurrentgeneration,havebeenrecorded.

Shewasoneofthemostoutstandingtalentsamongthedivineerawarlocksofthatgeneration.Ifshehadnotpassedawayatayoungage,shewouldhavebeenthenextcertainownerofthedivineeratower.

Unfortunately,shediedfromillnessduringthewaranddidn’tlivetoseethedaywhenshewouldbecomearespectedTowerMaster.

"Atthattime,Ineverexpectedthatnothingwouldchangehere."PassedPrincessreachedoutherhandandtouchedafairybutterflythatflewinatsomeunknowntime.

However,fairybutterfliesallwithoutexceptiondetestwar.Afterthewarbetweenthedivineeraandthedragonracebegan,sheneversawthesebeautifulbutterfliesintheoutsideworldagain.

IntheUndergroundCemetery,therewasnosignofthemeither.TheyinstinctivelyrepelledthescentofdeathintheUndergroundCemetery.

Thecreaturessheusedtobefamiliarwithfromthedivineera,andeventheenemiesoftheLeviathanfaction,haveallvanished,asiftheyhadneverexistedinthisworld.

Thedepartedprincesswasoverwhelmedbyastrongsenseofloneliness.Shewasabitlostinthisunfamiliarworld,sowhenshediscoveredthatthequeenandprincessoftheSiaKingdomwereactuallydescendantsofherownfamilyfromhundredsofgenerationsago,shewasactuallyvery,veryhappy.

Theprincesswhodiedattheageoftwelve,butwhofirmlybelievedthatherfatherwouldresurrecther,andbravelysteppedontothebattlefield,wasactuallyaveryinnocentchild.

Herspiritstoppedgrowingcompletelyatthemomentshedied,becomingaforever12-year-oldghost.

Whensurroundedbyfairybutterflies,shefeltlikeshehadreturnedtothepast,tothosecarefreedays.

Atthattime,thingslikewarswereverydistantforeveryone.ThekingdomwiththeDivineEraTowerwasamagicalsanctuaryrespectedbyallhumans,andtheroyalfamily,inheritingthegoldenbloodlineofVirgo,weretherightfulrulersofthecountry.

Hersisters,allofthem,wereoutstandingDivineEraWarlocks.Shedidn’thavetoworryaboutanything.Sinceshewasyoung,shewasshoweredwithlove,andallherwishescouldbefulfilled.

Therewasjustonewishthattheycouldn’tfulfill.

Wantingtogrowupwasmerelyasimplewish,butforthePassedPrincess,itwasanunattainableluxury.

Whensherealizedthat,theworldhadalreadyturnedgrayforher.

"Ancestor,canyoutellmeabouttheUndergroundCemetery?"Afteracknowledgingtheirancestry,bothAinandAdleyareverycuriousaboutwherethePassedPrincessisnow.

AlthoughtherearesubtlehintsabouttheKingofUndeadintheDivineEraTower,forpeopleinthisera,theKingofUndeadmentionedinthelegendsoftheDivineEraisstillunfamiliar.

Thatfeelingislikeanantiqueresurrectedfromthousandsofyearsago.

Charactersfrommythologicalstoriessuddenlyappearinginreality,itfeelsverystrange.

"Mydadisthegreatestwarlockintheworld,heistherulerwhoconnectstheNetherworldandtherealworld,controllinglifeanddeath,thestrongestamonghumans."Whentalkingabouther"dad,"thePassedPrincessisfilledwithpride.

Inhermemory,shewasresurrectedbyherdadandgainedabodycapableoffighting.

Herdad’swordsarejusticeandtheonlytruthforaprincesswhohaslostherway.

"Now,Dadhascomebacktolife,sothisworldshouldbelongtoDadagain."Theprincesswholostherfatherspokeconfidentlyaboutconqueringtheworld.

Originally,thisworld,wherehumanslive,wasforciblytakenfromtheDragonClanbyDad.

WithoutDad’sparticipationinthefinalbattle,humanswouldhavebeendefeatedlongagointhatwar,andtheremightevenhavebeenariskofannihilation.

TheDragonClan,thestrongestraceinSia’sworld,nevershowsmercytothosewhodaretoresistthemandcauseinstabilityintheworld.

"Oh...really?"

"Nowonderthehistoricalrecordsalwaysseemedstrange,especiallytheuseofresourcesduringthedivineeraandtowardstheendofthedragonrace’swar,aswellasthebattlerecords."Ainhadnoticedalotofdiscrepanciesinthedivineeratower’srecordsaboutthatwaralongtimeago.

Inthelastdecadeofthewar,thehumancasualtiesdecreaseddrasticallycomparedtothepast,buttheachievementsgainedincreasedinstead.

Inthefinaldecisivebattle,eventhoughthenumberofhumantroopsdispatchedhadclearlydecreasedfromthemid-warperiod,theystillachievedacompletevictoryonthelastbattlefield.

Thepowerofhumansisformidablewhentheygathertogether,buttherulingraceatthattime,thedragonrace,wasdefinitelynotweak,andonecouldevensaytheycompletelysurpassedhumans.

Thewarendedwithhumansrepellingthedragonraceandobtainingthecontinentalcrown.Peoplepraisedthesacrificesofthegoldenancientpeople,admiredthebraveryoftheknightsfromthedivineera,andthewisdomofthemages,asifhavingthesewouldensurevictory.

Ainknewthatwasn’tright.

Judgingfromtherecordedevidencealone,thepowerofhumanswasfarfrombeingabletoovercometheworlddominators,thedragonrace,atthattime.

Evenso,bythemiddleofthewar,humanswerealmostunabletoholdon.Butitseemedthatafteracertainbattle,thedirectionofthewarsuddenlychanged.
