*mortal realm*
Xue Huang
I went back to the Kingdom after talking to father. how could he send me on such an errand, I'm not good at flirting…... Maybe peng li can help me out. I dashed to my chambers as I called Peng li. "greetings your majesty, why did you call me" peng li asked as he bowed so I looked at him before sighing, "err- peng li how do you make a person fall in love with you" he flinched as he widened his eyes and came close to me, "your majesty! The heart once impenetrable, hath fallen prey to a fair maiden's charms. Who is this sorceress that hath breached thy defence?" he smiled with tears in his eyes which made me stand up "who says I'm the one in love, if you wouldn't help, I'll take my leave" I scolded as I walked out, "you can check the library!!!" I heard Peng li voice from my chambers so I tilted my head and saw he was just smiling at me as I tilted it back and left. He must have a point. I headed to the library since it was night and there won't be much people in the palace library. I searched for those kinds of book but didn't find any. This palace is really lacking a lot, all I saw was just ancient books about wars and tactics. I guess I have to head out tomorrow to get some books of that kind and maybe some for the palace libraries.
Xing li
I couldn't stop thinking about feng wan, it's all my fault that he's in this state, I hope Xue Huang has figured out the location of the antidote, he's quite smart. I decided to go out for a night walk to clear my head because what's happening now is suffocating me. "Demon girl, what evil are you planning to do by this time of the night" I heard a voice at my back so I turned and again it was that lady, "err- what evil are you also planning to do by this time, you're also out" she glared at me as she scoffed and blew some air into the air, "I'm on a patrol, dummy and lest you know I'm noble lady Lingling the descendant of the most powerful qin immortal" my eyes widened as I stared at her. Back in Qin hu I had always heard of the qin immortal no wonder Xue Huang is so mesmerized by her descendant that he allowed her to touch him like that, "the qin immortal was a well behaved and nice woman but you're an understatement" I whispered as she looked at me intently "what did you say" she asked so I shook my head before she talked again "Huang Huang is mine, he'll marry me and I'll be the queen, so back off!" she shouted as she stormed off. She acts like a child, why would I fight for Xue Huang, I don't like him, do I? I continued with my stroll. I strolled round the huge palace till I sighted a familiar face so I rushed to see who it was, "Oh! Xue Huang what're you doing here" I asked which made him flinch, "Well this is my palace I can go wherever I want" he noticed my expression before changing his statement, "err…...I just came back from the library" he admitted as he scratched the back of his hair, "Well have you found the location of the antidote" I asked which made him stare at me intently, he should stop staring at me like that I may get the wrong idea. "Yh, it's in the ice cave" I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion, what the hell is the ice cave, but I don't really care all I know is that I'm saving Feng wan "ok, lets head there now" I said as I attempted to walk away when he grabbed my hands, "Are you serious! What's he to you that you want to risk your life to save him! The ice cave is a very dangerous place, no one's ever come out alive. The ice cave is also known as the circular cave because it has no end, it only has traps" he scolded while staring into my eyes, my eyes widened as I removed my hands from his grips, how dare he touch me! isn't he enjoying his life with lady Lingling. I scoffed before sighing, "W-What...I don't care if I lose my life, I'm not afraid of anything! I'll go there and get the antidote you don't need to come with me" I shouted as I stormed off, "Xing li, what's wrong" I heard Xue Huang voice from afar so I just ignored him and went back to my chambers.

"Argg" I grunted as I stretched. The sun was so much like it was out to blind people. I sat down for a while before remembering I was to go to the ice cave today so I quickly freshened up. I didn't know where or what the ice cave was, so I have to ask Xue Huang. I got out of the room after wearing the warrior clothing I bought with feng wan, it fitted me quite well and I felt comfortable in it. I rushed over to Xue Huang's chamber when I came across a carriage. My eyes widened when I saw Xue Huang standing beside it, I couldn't help but notice how different he looked today, he was obviously wearing his warrior cloth which made him look so strong and angelic. "Xing li, let's go" Xue Huang shouted when he sighted me, why was he acting all nice today? "Oh! Handsome old man, I thought you were a coward, its not like I'm forcing you to come with me, I just wanted you to tell me the location". He just looked at me before holding my hands which made my heart flutter, "Shall we!" he said as he pulled me into the carriage. I wasn't seriously going to fall for him, right? He's better off with lady Lingling. We set off as the horse neighed and started moving with great speed.
*Heavenly realm*
Heavenly emperor
"Greetings my lord, I have something to discuss with you" the heavenly empress greeted as she sat down next to my throne, "Oh! Go on" I replied, "my lord, its about your fake son, how long are you going to lie to him! How long will you keep using part of his spiritual power!!..." she shouted as tears rolled down her cheeks, I was so irritated, "Shut up…...get out now! The fact that you're the heavenly empress doesn't give you the right to question me" I snapped as she walked away. I'm going to keep using Xue Huang and no one can stop me, I must get the orb and ascend to immortality. Xue Huang's parents died and I've taken care of him since then so he's forever indebted to me, his parents were just lowly heavenly mortals who can live for 5,000 years or more, I'm also a heavenly mortal but I'll ascend to immortality and keep leading the heavenly realm. I'll use Xue Huang and send him to see his parents. After I get the orb no one would be able to stop me anymore, I'll destroy the world's balance. The world's mine and I'll rule....my train of thoughts and self-appraisal was stopped when I heard a voice, "your majesty; I have a very important question to ask" Liling came rushing in as I nodded for her to speak, "Your majesty, is there a potion or spell or magic that can ward off demons" I almost flinched hearing what she said but I kept my composure before smirking, "Ok….why do you need it" she came close to me before replying "I don't know if you've heard about this but there's a demon in the mortal realm...I sense a very clear dark aura whenever I'm around her" she sounded worried, "Oh! Calm down Liling. The world will soon be ours; Xue Huang doesn't like her; he's just using her. And when we're done you can marry Xue Huang, but for now watch her closely". I smirked as I saw her eyes widen before we laughed together. "Your majesty, you're smart. Please can I see my mum" she asked so I allowed her then she zoomed off with a big smile plastered on her face.
