Awakening Of The Ancient: Rise Of The Fallen Chapter 165
Advertisement
It was still late at night. Just a few more hours, and it would be dawn.
Xu Ming wanted to go to the treasure hall after this as well, but he decided to delay the plans since it was just too late at the moment.
Instead of going to the core treasure hall, he walked back to his courtyard.
Soon, he reached his courtyard, but before he could walk inside, he heard a voice. The voice was so low that it would be impossible for someone to listen to it, but his senses were much sharper that made him able to hear the voice.
Xu Ming looked to his right and realized that the voice was coming from a nearby courtyard.
It was coming from the courtyard of Battle Fairy Mia, which sounded like a girl was singing.
"Do you hear that as well?" Xu Ming asked Valeria.
"Hear what?" Valeria inquired in return. Even though she was from the Spirit Fairy Race, her senses were weaker than the senses of Xu Ming.
"Someone was singing," Xu Ming muttered.
Instead of talking to her, he walked towards Mia's courtyard out of curiosity.
As he reached near her house, he spread out his Divine Sense to check his surroundings to see who it was.
The image of Mia in his mind was that of a stern person. He didn't believe that she would sing in such a cute voice.
His Divine Sense scanned Mia's house and gave him the answer that he hadn't expected. It was exactly Xia who was singing the song, and she was inside her courtyard, which signified how powerful Xu Ming's hearing sense was.
Xu Ming wanted to see with his own eyes, but he dropped the idea as he reached near her courtyard. It wasn't fair to disturb someone's privacy.

He was about to walk back when the singing stopped.
"What are you doing here?" He heard a voice from behind.
Xu Ming turned back and saw Battle Fairy Mia standing there.
"I live on this courtyard," Xu Ming replied to her as he pointed towards his courtyard. He was standing between her courtyard and his courtyard. "I was taking a walk around my place."
"Oh," Mia nodded her head as she put down her guard.
"Oh, right. I had something to talk to you about. I was trying to find an opportunity," Xu Ming told her as he remembered about something.
"What do you want to talk about? I don't have anything else that belongs to you now," Mia replied straight away as she shook her head.
"Oh, that's not it. On that topic, thank you again for returning my necklace. But what I wanted to talk about was something else."
Xu Ming moved his hand behind his back so that she wouldn't see him bringing something out of his storage ring.
He brought out the Coffin Shaped Necklace replica that he had purchased.
"This is a similar necklace that I purchased to comfort myself when I didn't have my family necklace. I wanted to give it to you. Please treat it as a gift for returning the necklace," Xu Ming said as he showed her the necklace.
"Throw it here," Mia responded as she saw the necklace. From first glance, she also found it similar to the necklace she gave Xu Ming.
Xu Ming threw the necklace towards Mia.
Mia caught the necklace and started observing it.
"It looks similar," she muttered as she wore the necklace.
"No, it doesn't give that calming sensation. I'll keep it though," she said as she nodded her head.

Xu Ming smiled as he saw her accept the gift. Now he felt much better.
"Good Night," he wished her night before he turned back. He was about to leave, but he left a fleeting comment before he left.
"Your voice is really nice. And your songs as well."
"Hmm?" Mia was stunned to hear that. She didn't expect that Xu Ming had heard her, but before she could reply, Xu Ming was already inside his courtyard.
She stood there for some time, just looking at his courtyard before she walked back as well.
Xu Ming dropped on his bed as he closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.
The next morning, he woke up when it was afternoon.
He showered and got ready before he left the courtyard with Valeria once again.
He went to the Treasure Hall this time.
The Treasure Hall of the core sect had the best treasures of the sect. Most of the treasures had belonged to the sect for a long time, while since of them were brought back by disciples and elders of the Core Sect after destroying some sects.
Some Artifacts in the treasure hall were forged by the disciples of the Mighty Demon Sect themselves.
The Core Sect had some good Artificers in its long history that made many significant artifacts for the sect, which were still in the treasure hall.
Xu Ming entered the Treasure Hall, and he was greeted the same way by the Treasure Hall Elder like he was welcomed by the Skill Hall Elder.
Almost everyone in the Core Sect knew about him as every Elder was present when his Potential was measured.
All the disciples of the Core Sect also found out about this. Most of them were jealous of Xu Ming's talent, while some were genuinely impressed after they found out what he had achieved.
Not only the core sect but the Inner Sect and the Outer Sect had also heard about Xu Ming's talent.
He had become the idol of the disciples in the sect. Xu Ming's name was already known by most of the disciples in the Inner Sect as he had risen in the Inner Ranking the fastest, but his further achievements brought him to a god-tier in the disciples' eyes.
The outer sect, on the other hand, was the only place where most of the disciples didn't know about Xu Ming. Most of them fight even knowing how he looked, but now that he was famous, his stories were being told in the entire Outer Sect about how a servant rose to the top of the sect.
There were stories about the Outer Elder threatening to cripple him for facing the bullies, and him being saved by Elder Wu. Most of them that heard his story for the first time couldn't believe that Xu Ming had been a servant.
How could a servant become the next potential sect master? Even though he was a grade 10 Talent, it shouldn't be this fast! Was the grade 10 talent really that miraculous? They all thought.
