Born to Disappear

Chapter 24

Leaving behind a neatly arranged row of manuals, Yuan Qing walked over to Hualing who was glued to the other end of the room. He saw how the high shelf had shifted sideways, opening to form a door leading to another room. Bright light emanates from the room, very different from the library illuminated with dim light.

"Have you ever entered this room?" Hualing again asked without looking at Yuan Qing who was standing beside him.

"No." That short answer came from Yuan Qing who was also fixated. What Hualing saw was now within his range of sight as well. It was a room illuminated by a large night pearl, propped up by a glittering golden pole. Looks like a luxury that shouldn't be in a shabby basement.

Yuan Qing clasped Hualing's arm as the second was about to step in, "let me, we don't know of any traps that might be waiting for." he said then taking the first step while Hualing obediently clung to his back.

"This place is incredible," Yuan Qing chills as Hualing's warm breath hits his nape. Vigilance of danger soon disappeared alternating vigilance not to do something to Hualing who was still unaware of anything.

"Ah Qing, you really have never entered this place?" Hualing who still did not know what Yuan Qing was thinking back said.

"I entered this basement a little late, there was little time before the secret room was closed." With gritted teeth Yuan Qing replied.

"Very dear," Hualing again said. From behind Yuan Qing's back he tiptoed, trying to see the thing that lay ahead.

"There shouldn't be any danger so Ling er can walk by the side." she said, unable to bear the warm, fragrant breath that struck her back neck. Especially when Hualing was closer, the fragrant aroma was further eroding the defensive walls.

"The style of this room is a little familiar," Hualing said softly while his feet stepped sideways, standing beside Yuan Qing. His eyes were all around.

This room looks more like a flower room where the owner of the house receives guests. The room is dominated by white and gold, the attached furniture also comes from valuable materials.

Hualing touch the low polished table smoothly. Dragons and clouds were carved into frames and colored in gold, "these carvings are not foreign. This engraving looked like-" Hualing muttered again. His memories drifted on thousands of years ago, when he was the servant of the God. When the God worked on the report, then he would obediently stand behind the God of war. Occasionally his gaze would be fixed on the firm ink scratches on the white paper and would occasionally notice the dragon carvings and the clouds that formed the frame.

He walked back, the wall full of paintings caught his attention. This painting looks like it's about to tell you something. He researched from end to end, trying to understand the meaning of the painting. Until a picture could surprise him, it was a man standing in the air. It floated with armor and a small jade bell that also floated beside it.

"Your Majesty Xue Yuan Qing," Hualing whispered softly. The man in the painting is the god!

He took a few steps back, paying more attention to the painting. The painting is divided into four segments.

Black clouds and purple lightning that seemed to strike a building painted at the very end, the line of people who were clustered in the painting was quite far from the building, 'This painting looks like a flash of events I've seen.' he thought.

'Did that really happen?' Hualing could not stop himself from returning to recall, 'would but, why would there not be me standing next to His Majesty?'

However, no matter how Hualing thought, that answer he never met. It was like a fog that covered the truth, as if he had missed an important detail.

Trying to shake off the growing incongruity, he shifted his gaze on the painting depicting the battlefield with the sword and spear. This is the painting Hualing first saw.

'This is that great war, but why don't I have any impression?'

With his brows furrowed, his gaze turned to the painting in the last segment. The majestic building painted above the clouds slowly collapsed, leaving a void.

Not wrong anymore!

This painting depicts how the ninth heaven collapsed. From the god of war who created the Destiny-breaking Bell to the war that resulted in the collapse of the ninth heaven.

Hualing turned around, looking at Yuan Qing who was now standing in front of the host's chair, seeing the man notice a pearl the size of a mature man's fist held up by a claw clone of a dragon.

With a hint of hesitation and full vigilance, Yuan Qing reached out. When his fingertips touched, the pearl shone with a dazzling golden light.

"For so long, why did it take thousands of years before someone found this place?" The third person's voice sounded full of grievance a moment after the light faded.

It was a middle-aged man with white hair and teal-colored clothes. Stretching your body without hesitation as if you just woke up from a long sleep.

The man looked at Hualing who was standing at the end, with a respectful posture he bowed. Completely unaware of anyone else standing nearby, "congratulations that the young miss managed to find this lowly tomb, your future is boundless!"

Hualing quickly returned the veneration, "This little girl should have apologized for entering the tomb of His Eternal Majesty!"

"That's not a problem at all. If this tomb is not entered, who will inherit all the cultivation scrolls?" the man who should be the remnant of consciousness from His Eternal Majesty Shui Xing spoke without reluctance.

"Oh right! It must have been the young lady who awakened the rest of my consciousness, it was amazing to meet a fellow who had gone through the life and death cycle!" The rest of His Eternal Majesty's consciousness Shui Xing spoke again, completely unaware of the young man behind him had broken the vinegar setoples.

With a smile knot Hualing answered this Eternal Falling question, "It's not this little girl, it's someone standing behind His Eternal Majesty!" do you not see the God of war standing behind you! Of course the last sentence was just that he said in his heart.

With a long 'oh', His Eternal Majesty Shui Xing turned around. Wanting to see which God could pass through the life and death cycle, but someone he saw instantly made his knees tremble.

With a 'busy!' voice!' Eternal Majesty Shui Xing knelt before Yuan Qing, "This servant greets His Majesty the war god Xue!"
