42 Chapter 42
Silence remained within the great space, as the humongous yellow and red beautiful eyes locked down upon Xiao and Yun Yurou, its ancient and mysterious eyes that seemed to see through all froze as it focused on Xiao, time ticked by as they stayed frozen within the humongous pressure they were imprisoned in, finally a whisper like a mummer was heard
"Umm.....wasn't I only supposed to get one inheritor according to that old witch? why's there a second one?"
"Um?...he's body is a living embodiment of impossibility, moreover I can't seem to break through his memories, "
"Just what kind of monsters are being birthed in this era? and here I was thinking that the Bestial Era was where geniuses reigned supreme...."
The owner of the eyes seemed to have been lost within her world as she continued to mumble and talk in her world, completely ignoring Xiao and Yun Yurou, it was only a few moments later did she regain her focus, she seemed to have made her decision as she spoke to Xiao
"Boy...it would seem that you would be unable to inherit my legacy"
Hearing the female like calm voice Xiao's eyes shot up in surprise before he asked back
"Why?"
"It would seem that you have already been chosen by a legacy higher than mine"
This time Xiao's eyes furrowed as he seemed to be in deep thought a few seconds later he looked at the humongous eyes as he spoke
"A legacy more powerful than that of an expert of the Bestial Era?"
"Indeed, I had the luck of knowing about it, it was the Era when the progenitors of all beasts and the beginning of all end were started, an Era where the greatest of geniuses of the heavenly Beasts were born"
"Indeed...it was such an Era..."
The eyes seemed to speak with a nostalgic voice and then again silence descended into the space, it was only again after a few moments the eyes spoke again
"Yes you are right, I have no idea which legacy have chosen you but just on the power that's preventing me from seeing into your mind or your complete secret I could summarize that the legacy that has chosen you is nothing sort of powerful"
"I see....."
Xiao nodded his head, this was the first time that he had heard of such news but just the fact that he was targeted by a legacy doesn't sit well with him, this kind of legacy would be a bitch on your back that would be faintly direct the path of his fate and he doesn't like that one bit
'But what can I do?'
Xiao's thoughts were useless, at the current moment he's just weak to fight against anything that would want to turn over his fate but that doesn't mean that it will be like that forever, Xiao's eyes turned serious for a moment, causing him to release a bit of his bloodlust, causing Yun Yurou who was close to him feel like death was crawling up her body
"You have quite the wonderful bloodlust"
The eyes up above spoke, hearing it Xiao soon was brought out of his daze as he withdrew his bloodlust as he looked at Yun you apologetically, after which he turned towards the eyes in the sky
"Thanks, so if I can't earn your legacy, what can I do?"
"You do not have to worry, I could see that the legacy that has chosen you seem to follow the path of the fire, I could allow you to challenge for several treasures that be extremely useful to the current you, its the least I could do for the mate of my successor"
At first, as the eyes spoke Xiao kept nodding his head but as he heard the ending words of the eyes he couldn't help but flinch as he tried to speak out loud but sadly he was a bit late
"Thank you"
As Yun Yurou who was quiet till now spoke out, hearing her happily thank the entity in the sky Xiao felt his eyes twitch in annoyance but in the end, he sighed, it was not like saying this would get him killed but that's also when he noticed something peculiar, it was a simple fact that this powerful expert seemed to be awaiting Yun Yurou
But Why? from what Xiao had seen Yu Yurou didn't seem to have any outstanding quality or talent that would make a powerhouse from billions of years to take her as its successor, moreover Xiao who had been to the third heaven could see that the entity in front of him was a Pheonix
Not a normal one but a Pheonix of a divine level that should possess the purest bloodline ever seen, so why was she waiting for Yun Yurou? it was during his monologue that the eyes that were floating above them focused on Yun Yurou as it spoke
"You are finally here child but I didn't expect you to be born from a Pheonix and a human, making you Devine level talent to be completely suppressed"
The voice of the eyes was the final nail in the coffin that struck Xiao's mind, it was then that he remembered that no one knew Yun Yurou's mother, from what Xiao knew Yun Yurour's father had gone on travel and when he had returned he had Yun Yurou in his arms as his child
'Yun Yurou.....Yun Yurou.....why did it feel like I have heard this name before?'
Xiao's mind raced trying to find out any future figures with the same name, Xiao was now sure that in his past life Yun Yuroru must have gotten the legacy and become someone famous, it didn't matter if she in his past life must have failed her test and was sent to a side family, she could have still gotten her will afterward
'Yun Yurou...pheonix.....um....Wait!.....no.....that's impossible!'
Xiao's eyes widened as his gaze was filled with incredulity, accidentally a sentence escaped his lips
"The world burning Pheonix"
"Um? Oh! you have heard of me?"
The eyes above them seemed to have heard Xiao's words as she focused on him, the words of the Pheonix in the sky was the last push Xiao needed for his conclusions to be a reality, complex emotions filled his eyes as he turned towards Yun Yurou, it would seem that she was a person he knew as well
Fate was truly playing with all that he knew
