Phoenix Cry Firmament

A gale was blowing under the azure sky. There was a couple walking in the middle of a desert with an intense wind blowing against them.

“Mu Er, we should be reaching the Continent of Jun (monarch) after crossing this desert.”

The purple-robed man turned his head to look at the youthful girl beside him, light smiles in his eyes. His smile had enhanced his charm…

“Mhm.”

Mu Ru Yue raised her head to look at the glaring sun in the sky. She narrowed her eyes slightly as she said, “I hope everything will go well.”

‘I also don’t know where Little Huang Er and the rest are now…’

She lowered her gaze slightly, covering the gloominess of her eyes.

Boom!

Yet, when she wanted to raise her head again, the howlings of the wind that was like from a storm was heard before her…

“This is bad!”

Mu Ru Yue’s expression changed abruptly as she looked at the intense sandstorm in the North direction. “It is the most formidable sandstorm that occurs every millennium!”

‘It seems that we had really run out of luck this time. They have met with a sandstorm that only occurs every millennium…’

Mu Ru Yue’s gaze turned slightly gloomy with a peculiar light that shone past her eyes.

“Mu Er,” Ye Wu Chen frowned before saying, “You are to grip tightly onto my hand later. You mustn’t let go of my hand no matter what!”

“Alright.”

Mu Ru Yue nodded slightly as she looked seriously at the sandstorm that was nearing them.

The sandstorm covered the entire area, carrying a tremendous force with it. Dust rose wherever it went, making people unable to be fully prepared for it…

Its speed was rapid as it instantly reached before Ye Wu Chen and Mu Ru Yue.

Boom!

The sandstorm had engulfed the couple…

Nobody, excluding experts that reached the God Realm, could resist against the harm from natural disaster no matter how high the martial practitioners’ cultivation was…

Boom!

A mighty force struck against them. Mu Ru Yue’s hand that was holding tightly onto Ye Wu Chen’s hand was forcefully separated; they were forced to part from each other with that power.

Mu Ru Yue seemed to have seen Ye Wu Chen’s worried and nervous-filled purple eyes when her consciousness was getting hazy.

☀

A girl was lying in the desert under the sunlight from the sunrise. Her eyes were tightly shut with her impeccable face pale-white. Her vitality seemed to have vanished.

Yet, a group of men and horses were dashing over at this moment, gradually nearing the girl from afar. When they were about to pass by the girl, they suddenly stopped.

A gale blew past, lifting the hanging screen of the horse carriage. A youthful boy could be vaguely seen within that horse carriage.

The youth wasn’t extremely handsome but had a pleasant and delicate face. His face had not fully developed yet. There was a tinge of a childish feature on his youthful face.

“What is going on?”

His voice was clear and crisp, completely unaffected by the rampaging howling sandstorm.

“Young master, there is a girl that had collapsed on the ground.”

An astonished voice was heard from outside the horse carriage.

The youth frowned slightly. He then relaxed his frown after a long time before ordering, “Bring her along with us. Let’s continue on!”

The horse carriage continued to travel forth as this moment. But there was another person in the back horse carriage as compared to just now…

The girl that was lying silently in the swaying horse carriage gradually opened her eyes. She rubbed her painful forehead before frowning, puzzled.

“Where is this place?”

‘I remember facing a sandstorm with Wu Chen. Where is Wu Chen then? More importantly, where am I…’

The horse carriage stopped when she was pondering. When the hanging screen of the horse carriage was lifted, a head had extended into the horse carriage. The man had a simple and honest appearance. When he saw that Mu Ru Yue had woken up, he chuckled and asked, “Lady, have you awakened?”

Mu Ru Yue creased her brows tightly as she looked at the man that seemed to have a simple and honest appearance. She then asked, “Who are you and why have I appeared here?”
