Law Of Creation

Chapter 32 - Weakened State

[Ah. . . It feels cool. . . This hand feels cool. . . So comfortable. . .]

]Something wet is touching my lip. . .] She unconsciously opened her lip. . .

[Like a drop of water. . . In the middle of the desert. . . ]

[Ah. . . My eyes are too heavy. . .]

[Let's sleep again. . . . .]

[. . . I feel like I have slept for a long time. . . I cannot move my hands or feet. . . The pain in my head. . . Really annoying. . . I wanted to open my eyes. . . .]

Lan Bingyue's Monologue, a few hours ago.

Currently, I am working on these doc.u.ments about Xia family's domain. Originally, this should not be my job. The Domain's Lord, my father-in-law, Xia Longyu should be the one to do this kind of job. Unfortunately, he was not suitable for office works. And he left everything to his third son, Xia Wushan.

At first, my husband, Xia Wushan should be the one to do this works. But thanks to King's Written Order that year, he was sent to Star Royal City for four years. With no one else in the domain, I took the initiative to take care some important paper. But it turned out to be a bottomless hole. I couldn't even try to leave all of this works to other people. Even after my husband had returned to the domain, most of the administrative works were done by me myself.

I have four children. They are Xia Longyi, Xia Lanyue, Xia Mingyue, and Xia Longyi. Two boys and two girls.

The oldest is Xia Longyi, he is currently 18 years old. His feature was very similar to my husband, but his temper was similar with me. Usually, he was always smiling, but when he was angry, he was very similar to his grandfather. His dominant Elemental was fire, and his aspiration was to become a Great Spell User. The Great Spell User was above Grade 5 Spell User, while currently, Longyi was still a Grade 2 Spell User.

Spell User was a combat form of Spirit User. A Spell User could conjure an Elemental attack on their enemy from long range. Not many people could become a Spell User since the prerequisite to be a Spell User was very high, not to mention a Great Spell User. In exchange, a Great Spell User was very welcomed everywhere and people were rarely willing to offend them.

Last month, Xia Longyi told me that his master would bring him to some volcanic area for his training. I could remember his happy expression.

The second child is Xia Lanyue. Currently, she is 16 years old. Her feature and temper were too similar to her grandfather. In short word, she was a short-tempered person. Similar to her brother, her dominant Elemental was fire. But her aspiration was different 180 degree of her brother, an Elemental warrior. A normal warrior and an Elemental warrior came from the same root, but their combat technique and ability was a little different.

A normal warrior didn't always use their Elemental because of limitation in talent and training. They usually tried to hone their combat abilities and optimizing their combat style. They usually used Elemental to increase their strength and stamina.

On the other side, an Elemental warrior would also focus on their Elemental. They also focused on condensing Elemental to their weapon to increase their destructive abilities.

Most of the well-known Elemental warrior was always a man. That's why I was anxious about her. She also rarely returned to the domain, making me miss her very much.

Not only that, she wanted to join Mercenary Guild. Well, there was no one that wanted to stop her if she was merely wanted to join. But she wanted to go on a long journey as a mercenary.

[As a mother, how could I be willing to let her in dangerous situation every day?]

Unfortunately, no one could talk some sense to her.

[Sigh. . .]

The third child is Xia Mingyue. Currently, she is 10 years old. Unlike Lanyue, Yueyue was only a little mischievous.

She should be having the Graduation Exam now. She was the child I worried the most. Since her birth, her body was always weak. Even though her body was weak, she liked to suddenly disappear, making everybody worried. But she was an intelligent little girl.

Her dominant Elemental is, it was more like she didn't have any Elemental she was bad. I didn't wish for her to tire her too much, so it was okay. Also, she kept a little kitten called Xiao Jing.

The fourth child is Xia Longyi. Currently, he is 9 years old. He became similar with Longyi, like to smile everywhere. He was a kind child, but a little rascal. He usually stayed obedient in front of Mingyue.

[Maybe because their age was very close?]

His dominant Elemental was ice, the same as me. He still didn't think too much about future, and I was fine with it.

Children should have their own path later, they should enjoy their young age with playing.

While I was reminiscing about my children, suddenly the reading room's door was opened. The house's Butler came inside the room in rush with a panicked face. His face was pale and his breathing was not stable. He had been a butler for a long time in this domain, so he usually wouldn't have that panicked expression.

"Madam. . . Miss madam. . . An emergency letter from Royal City. . . From Academy. . ." The Butler tried to convey the message, but he already ran out of breath when he came into the room.

After taking a few breaths, the Butler repeated, " Madam, an emergency letter from Academy. Miss. . . Little miss fell into an accident!"

Since Lanyue didn't like to be called as little miss, Mingyue was the only one to be called like that.

"…. " I lost my voice. I took that letter from Butler's hand.

After reading the content of the letter, I ordered the Butler, "Prepare a carriage. No, a horse. The fastest one. I am going to go to the Academy now. Bring this letter to Domain's Lord and my husband. Tell them to come as soon as possible."

I felt dizzy. My mind was in shambles. But. . . [I couldn't fall now.]

[Mingyue fell into an unknown accident. Her life was saved but her condition was not very good. The Academy side feared that some people tried to infiltrate Graduation Exam. Their objective was still unknown, but they were possible to aim Mingyue's life. The letter was short and only briefed Academy's situation.]

[The first thing was to go to Royal City. I don't care who they were, but if there is something bad happened to her. . . ]

The Butler, who was trying to catch a breath before running again and giving the news to the Domain's Lord, saw Lan Bingyue's expression and he was scared.

Usually, she was an all-smiling lady. Even though she was angry, she would never show her angered expression. And now, in front of the Butler, she unconsciously revealed her unconcealed killing intent. A bone-piercing cold could be felt inside the reading room.

Even the Butler could feel that his sweat was frozen. Scared of Lan Bingyue, the butler left the room in hurry.

Not long after he left, the room was covered in a layer of ice. The room was frozen and become a world full of white! And in the middle of this world, Lan Bingyue was standing in the middle of the reading room without any change in her expression to this bizarre situation.

Even though the room was covered in the layer of ice, there was no any ice on Lan Bingyue's body. She was akin to the goddess in the world full of ice.

If the Xia Longyi saw this scene, he would be dead-scared of her Mother. Because the ability that was shown in the reading room was at the very least a Great Spell User. The capability to change climate and landscape was the very basic prerequisite to becoming a Great Spell User.

And Lan Bingyue was only revealing her killing intent to create this scene.

Step by step, Lan Bingyue went forward slowly. With every step, she created a flat ice for her to put her feet.

After she went out of the reading room, the ice in the room shattered and the reading room returned to the original room.

No one knows this scene.

After a long time, Mingyue finally opened her eyes

"… Mom?" Mingyue was surprised by Lan Bingyue.

She should not be at Academy. And then, she realized that she was not in the Academy's Dormitory. She was lying on the bed that she used at Xia family's mansion.

" You girl, are you okay? Rest more, don't think about anything else." Lan Bingyue was happy, but she focused on Mingyue's condition.

Her condition was much more dangerous than the usual Over-usage of Elemental. Currently, Mingyue was unable to do anything. Even her weak body constitution made her condition even worse. Her body became very thin, she could see bones everywhere. Mingyue's complexion was pale white, her lip was dried up. Her body temperature was very high. If Lan Bingyue was not here, then Mingyue wouldn't be able to regain her consciousness this fast.

On her forehead and around it, a few green lines could be seen. It was the sign of Over-usage of Elemental. But the green lines on Mingyue was a lot and much darker than other people. Since she didn't know what else to do, Lan Bingyue kept Mingyue's condition stabilized by reducing Mingyue's body temperature to a normal state. She also slowly infused a small amount of Elemental to lighten Mingyue's 'dried-up from Elemental' condition.

Mingyue was looking around the room. Thinking that Mingyue was scared of another assassin, she reassured Mingyue. "Don't worry, the bad guy won't be able to infiltrate so easily. The Academy has dispatched some of their personnel to protect you. Even in front of this door, there are two strong guards from the Academy."

Realizing something, Mingyue just kept her eyes closed. After some time, she opened her eyes and looked at Lan Bingyue's eyes directly.

" . . . Mom. . . Let's return to the domain." Mingyue asked Lan Bingyue. From Mingyue's observation, those assassin's organization should have marked her as a witness.

[Staying in Royal City was even more dangerous. Moreover, those Academy's personnel were a little suspicious. Return as early as possible to the domain was the only solution, as she was in a bad condition.]

"No, there is no need. Your Grandpa and Dad are on the way here. No need to be scared." Lan Mingyue tried to reassure her. Mingyue's condition was clearly very bad. If she went on the carriage, her condition could worsen.

Shaking her head slowly, Mingyue tried to explain her reason, " Not like that. . . The assassins. . . I should be marked by them. . . Dangerous. . . "

Lan Bingyue was surprised by Mingyue's word.

[Assassins? And not only one? And also, these assassins dared to infiltrate the Academy. If so, then they wouldn't be scared of Xia family.]

After contemplating for some time, she nodded and fulfilled Mingyue's request, "Okay, we will return now. Wait for a second, I will ask someone to prepare the carriage."

Mingyue felt relieved because Lan Bingyue realized the risk of staying in Star Royal City. In this place, the strong would devour the weak. With enemy everywhere and anywhere, they would stay in passive position. After relieved, Mingyue was resting again.
