Li Ming listened closely as the group of Senior disciples of Guixian Academy explained the rules of the first part of the entrance exam.

She was already aware of every single thing related to the entrance exam thanks to the Immortal Master and the extra information that she found out through a specific person.

A movement beside her pulled her attention away from the lecture that was going on in the front.

She was standing in the very back of the group of children who had appeared to participate in the entrance exam.

"What are you doing here?" She asked the Moon Immortal in surprise as he appeared beside her.

Lord Yueliang did not reply as he wrapped his long warm fingers around her wrist and teleported her away from the coast.

Li Ming was so shocked that she did not even get the chance to protest against being abducted by one of her own mates.

A few seconds later she found herself standing on the outside pavilion of the Back Courtyard in the Yueliang Manor.

She turned around to look at the Moon Immortal but suddenly found herself pressed against the cold pillar as warm lips landed on her cold ones, engulfing not only her mouth but her entire being in the warmth that one could always feel in the moonlight.

Her fingers found themselves clutching the collar of the brocade white silky robes that the Moon Immortal was wearing.

If not for the thought of the exam returning to her mind and reminding her that she could not afford to be late, who knew for how long she would have kept kissing her mate.

It took all her self control to push Lord Yueliang away as she tried to calm down her breathing.

"I don't know why but I'm feeling like I won't be seeing you for a long time. Even though you are only going to join the Academy and we can always come to meet you once in every month, but that strange feeling in my heart is not letting me relax."

Li Ming felt like her heart shattered into a hundred pieces as she recognized the uncertainty in Lord Yueliang's voice.

The beautiful cerulean eyes which were always calm, collected, and confident, were currently looking at her with hope.

It was like he was waiting for her to promise him that he was overthinking, that she was not going away from them.

However, Li Ming could not find the courage to lie to her mate, no matter how much she wanted to take away the pain that was currently haunting him.

And her silence answered all of Lord Yueliang's questions. His left hand that was resting on her shoulder slipped away as he stared at her with his beautiful eyes filled with nothing else but hurt.

The hurt and pain that she gifted him. If she could then Li Ming would have decided to not join the Academy right then and there, however, she had no other choice left other than entering the Academy to work on her future plans.

"It's alright! I know that you have your own plans and we should not be reacting like this. We promised to always be here to support you and look at us right now, reacting like little kids who can't control their tempers."

Lord Yueliang chuckled out mockingly as he shook his head. His hands returned to Li Ming's shoulders as he pulled her a little closer to himself before continuing.

"They all are a little bit angry but that does not mean they don't care about you. Trust me, Little One, we all are waiting for you to shock everyone at this entrance exam and enter the Guixian Academy with your head high."

He moved his left hand to cup one side of her face in his palm. The warmth and smoothness of her skin filling his heart with a strange but pleasing calmness that only she could provide.

Li Ming stayed completely silent all this time as she let her Mr. Perfect memorize this moment in his mind and heart, just like she was doing.

"I know that I'm also wrong in my decisions of keeping these things from you all and I'm really sorry about that. I won't act like such an idiot ever again in the future. I promise." Li Ming whispered as she looked at Lord Yueliang with her eyes filled with sincerity.

The Moon Immortal did not waste any time before he pulled her into his arms and snaked his arms around her small frame to cover her in his warm and protective cocoon.

"It's okay, Little One. It's okay. Right now, all you need to do is to put all your focus on the exam. I promise to meet you at the Academy with the rest of the guys. No matter what your plans are for the future, I promise to give you a chance to sort out this situation before you will carry out your main plan."

There was no doubt that he would keep his promise at all costs.

And the thought that she would be able to explain and apologize to her mates before separating from them, made Li Ming relax.

She nodded her head hurriedly as she planted a soft kiss on the warm palm of Lord Yueliang's right hand.

Neither of them had any idea exactly how disturbed her bonds with her mates were about to turn.

Not because they were currently a little upset with each other, but because someone was busy in brewing a conspiracy against her.

While Li Ming was busy in making everything work around the Immortal World with one step at a time, someone else was planning on taking down everything.

The coming years were about to change everything in the Immortal World, even though at the current moment no one was aware of the tsunami that was moving towards their world, except one!

There was a certain someone around Li Ming who knew way much more than what they were telling and the result of this silence was not going to be something small.
