Awakening Of The Ancient: Rise Of The Fallen Chapter 22

"Her special physique is known as the 'Saintly Desolation Physique'. We know a little bit about it as this physique had previously appeared in this world."
"It first appeared in a mortal woman of the Mortal Realm. The woman later became known as the "Desolation Empress'. She was a frightening woman I must say." Wen Yin continued.
"Is there a way to help her?" Xu Liang asked her in full seriousness.
"Not that I know of. We don't even know that much about this physique as of yet. The only person who could help us understand it was the Desolation Empress ... but she hasn't been seen in over a hundred years. Even Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu tried to find her when we discovered that Yue had this physique, but she was never found. " Wen Yin shook her head as she said to Xu Liang.
"I'll say the same thing again. Worrying won't solve anything. Leave all the worrying to your elders. I'm sure that we will soon find a possible way to help her." Wen Yin continued.
"Oh, I forgot to ask. Where is your father? How come you were the one to come looking for me instead of him? " Wen Yin asked as if she suddenly thought about something.
"Father? I don't know much about his whereabouts. I was only told that he went out for some important work." Xu Liang replied to her.
"Important work? Oh.. he must've gone to check on the barrier. That thing is still weakening. Looks like it won't be long." Wen Yin said with a serious look on her face.
"Barrier?" Xu Liang asked as confusion appeared on his face.
"Oh, it's nothing. Anyways, she will wake up in a few hours. I'll be going now." Wen Yin said with a smile as she walked towards the exit.

Xu Liang went ahead and sat near Yue. He couldn't care less about her lack of proper clothing as he was more worried about her waking up.
"Master, are you going to be staying here?" Mengchan inquired as she looked at Xu Liang.
"Yea... Anyways, do you know where my royal father actually went?" Xu Liang asked her with a thoughtful look on his face.
"No" Mengchan shook her head.
"Go out there and try to find out. Tell me once you find out." Xu Liang said to her before shifting his focus back to Yue.
"Alright, young master," Mengchan nodded her head as she left. She didn't forget to close the door before leaving.

"Saintly Desolation Physique huh... It sounds so amazing, but who would have known that it would be something like this." Xu Liang muttered as he looked at the calm face of Yue.
"What was that dream though... And the strange feeling I got when I touched you... it was as if a heavy burden was off my shoulders... Everything is so confusing. Nothing makes sense anymore." Xu Liang shook his head with a distressed look on his face.

Far away from the Heavenly Realm, there existed a small planet. The planet had no water. As far as one could see, there was nothing but rocks in sight. The rocks and the ground all looked greyish.
There was neither plantation nor any signs of wildlife on the whole planet.
There existed something strange on this planet. It was not distinguishable from the space but when one got closer to the planet, they could see a barrier in one of the sections of the planet.
The barrier was in the shape of a semisphere with a diameter of only 2 kilometers.

Outside the northern portion of the barrier, a few people could be seen standing there as they surveyed the barrier.
"It is weakening at a must faster pace. If it keeps weakening at this rate, We might only have 1 or 2 years before the barrier is ineffective." Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said as he gazed at the barrier.
"Indeed...I don't know why, but it started weakening at a much faster rate yesterday. It felt like something affected the weakening of the barrier and intensified it" War God Zhen let out with a thoughtful look on his face.
"There's not much time left. There are so many things that need to be done... So much preparation is needed..." Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said with a grave look on his face.

"Ahmmm...." Yue suddenly let out a voice as she moved her hand. Her hand now rested on Xu Liang's thighs who were sitting on the bed.
"Yue? Are you up?" Xu Liang said as she felt her movement.
"Hmm?" Yue slowly opened her eyes. She looked to her right and found Xu Liang sitting there.
"Ah... Brother Liang... Did I lose consciousness again?" Yue asked with a confused look on her face.
"Yea... Are you alright now?" Xu Liang asked with a concerned look on his face.
"I feel fine. I feel better than I did the previous times this happened." Yue let out with a calm smile on her face.
She tried to move her hands when she noticed that her right hand was resting in an unusual place.
Her face couldn't help but turn crimson as she realized that her hands were on Xu Liang's thighs. She pretended to be unaware of it as she let her hand stay there.
Xu Liang didn't think much about it as he continued to look at her with a concerned gaze.
Yue sat up straight after some effort, though she still didn't remove her right hand from his thighs.
As she sat up, The blanket that was covering her body slid down, revealing her body that was only covered by her innerwear.
"Eeeek.." A sharp scream escaped her mouth as she realized that she was barely wearing any clothes. Most of her skin was exposed and only her breasts were covered by her innerwear.
"Ahh... What happened was that...Mengchan was taking care of you when I went out to bring the Goddess of Medicine. She was worried about your high temperature, she thought that removing your clothes might be a good idea. You were already like this by the time I came back." Xu Liang tried to explain as he struggled to find proper words so as to not create a misunderstanding.
"It... it's alright. I don't mind if Brother Liang sees me like this." Yue let out with a red face, though in her mind she was screaming as she couldn't believe that she said such bold words.

The Painter: A fantasy psych thriller and epic
*** June 21th Update ***- New chapters are being posted! I haven't figured out a schedule yet, but stay tuned!- Thank you to everyone who has read and reviewed, I'm happy to say The Painter is in the top 200 best-rated fictions. - Readers of The Painter have suggested reading through Chapter 6 before making a decision on this book.- The story takes place in the Lootverse, but you don't need a canonical understanding to appreciate the storyFinally, a warning or reader beware: This is not an action novel (despite the coming fight scene) but a slow-burn psychological thriller of sorts. For a time, the Painter's life was simple. He lived in the small town of Kinon (called Kinney by locals) with his wife, Kahriah and his son, Thesdon. The story begins with him alone and unable to travel more than a few hundred miles from his home. For 5 years he tried to chart his prison until one day a letter appears with a mysterious commission that will see him test his condition and his boundary. Set roughly 50 years before the impending end of days (from Loot canon), The Painter is a story about loss, grit, and exploration of a seemingly normal man in a world of magic and monsters. The Painter will follow the man on his adventure to restore his family, uncover his commissioners and discover the nature of his condition. Loot is the decentralized, global, community built fantasy world based on Dom Hoffman's art/tech experiment: Loot. Fun fact: The cover of our book is painted by the artist, who the MC is loosely based on and the same person painting the Banners (digitally) IRL for an art/worldbuilding project.

A Well Dressed Wolf
I don't know what to tell you; I never met a god, I never saved kids from speeding trucks, there was no email, no freak lighting storm, no dying in my sleep, no blinding white light at the end of the tunnel.
