That day, Everyone in the Heavenly Realm saw a beautiful Ice Phoenix flying in the sky.

Xu Liang walked back to his room and spent the day normally with his family. ​​

The next day arrived and Xu Liang went to talk to the Heavenly Emperor.

"Mengchan, Is Father in his room?"

Xu Liang was walking in the corridor when he noticed Mengchan.

"His Majesty? Nope, he's not in the palace since yesterday. I think he left." Mengchan replied to him as she stopped in front of Xu Liang.

"Not here? Did he go out for some work again? It's alright. I'll talk to him later then. Don't forget to tell me when he's back." Xu Liang responded to her as he turned back to leave.

"Sure," Mengchan told him with a slight smile on her face.

"Anyways, Master. I think His Majesty left the palace with Senior War God, So he must know about it in great detail." Mengchan further said as she remembered that she saw War God Zhen going towards Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu's throne room yesterday.

"War God Zhen? Alright, I'll ask him when I see him. Thanks for the information." Xu Liang replied to Mengchan before he turned back to leave.

Xu Liang was walking back towards his room when he noticed War God Zhen coming towards him.

"Uncle Zhen, You're here. What happened? You're looking somewhat sad?" Xu Liang asked as he gazed at War God Zhen.

Although the War God had no expression on his face, Xu Liang could feel that he was sad from his eyes.

"Oh, Little Liang. It's nothing. Just some work stress. Anyways, how's everything going? I heard from some people that the Ice Phoenix left the Heavenly Realm? Is that true?" War God Zhen smiled as he asked Xu Liang.

"Everything's perfectly fine and yes, Lexi left this place. She had something important to do." Xu Liang answered War God Zhen.

" What an unfortunate timing." War God Zhen muttered softly as he shook his head.

" Oh, right, I came here to tell you about His Majesty. His Majesty won't be coming back for quite some time. He has gone to the Immortal Realm to investigate the appearance of a New Ruin. It might take him as short as a week or as long a year to come back. He asked me to inform you so that you aren't worried." War God Zhen smiled as he told Xu Liang.

He followed Tian Zhu's words and didn't tell Xu Liang about his death. Instead, he made up a lie about going for some investigation.

"Oh, I was about to ask you about father. No wonder I didn't see him today. So I won't be able to see him when I leave the Heavenly Realm after breaking through to immortality." Xu Liang sighed in disappointment.

War God Zhen didn't say anything and just kept looking at Xu Liang.

"Anyways, thank you for telling me." Xu Liang smiled as he thanked War God Zhen.

"It was nothing. Anyways, since His Majesty is not here, I'll be staying here as well. He asked me to take care of you guys. You don't mind, right?" War God Zhen told Xu Liang.

" Oh, not at all. This place is quite big and has so many rooms. You can choose any room you desire." Xu Liang replied to War God Zhen.

"Thanks. I'll go find Mengchan and choose a room then." War God Zhen smiled as he informed Xu Liang before leaving.

Xu Liang left as well and entered his room. He walked towards Yue, who was lying in bed with Little Ming.

"Yue, There's something you should know as well." Xu Liang said as he sat beside her on the bed.

" What is it?" Yue asked with a confused look on her face.

"It's about, father. He left the Heavenly Realm. I was told that he is currently in the Immortal Realm and it might take him a year before he can come back. Apparently, an Ancient Ruin has appeared in the Heavenly Realm." Xu Liang explained everything he had just found out to Yue.

"That sounds just like father. He has always been interested in Ancient Ruins. It's too bad that he didn't tell me before leaving. I won't talk to him for a month when he comes back." Yue let out with puffed cheeks.

" Hahaha, Yeah. That will teach him a lesson." Xu Liang couldn't help but burst into laughter when he heard Yue's reply.

"Little Ming is still sleeping? This guy can sleep quite well, can't he?" Xu Liang said with a smile as he pinched Xu Ming's cheeks.

"I'm not sleeping, father! I'm just giving the rest to my eyes." Xu Ming spoke in a low voice as he slowly opened his eyes.

" Oh? Looks like I misunderstood my little guy. Come on here." Xu Liang smiled as he picked up Ming in his arms and kissed on Ming's cheeks.

"You know, your Uncle Zhen is going to stay with us from now on. You like him quite a lot, don't you?" Xu Liang told Ming as he chuckled.

" Uncle Zhen? Awesome! He gives me so many gifts! Father never gives me gifts!" Xu Ming said as he puffed his cheeks.

" Hahaha... You little boy, Are you calling your father a cheapskate? Here... I'll give you everything that I have." Xu Liang started laughing when he heard Ming's answer.

He took his storage ring off his finger and placed it on Ming's finger. The ring automatically adjusted in size to fit the little fingers of Xu Ming.

"A ring?" Xu Ming let out with a surprised look on his face.

"Not just any ring! It's my storage ring. It contains everything that I own and it can only be opened by someone from my bloodline. Only you and I can open it. Not even mother can." Xu Liang said with a smile as he gazed at Xu Ming.

"Wow, Really? Can I keep it? What about, father?" Xu Ming asked with a surprised look on his face.

"You can keep it for a few days. I'm going to need it after some time. I'll give you a different ring at that time though. The second ring will be filled with even more treasures that are more suited for you." Xu Liang informed Xu Ming.
