《Law of Creation》an Uncouth Little Brat
Advertisement
When she arrived at Fire Temple, Mingyue pouted after seeing the crowd of people inside the temple.
[I am only a small child with a weak body. If I go, I will be dead. Definitely.]
"Can we do this ceremony thing later?" Xia Longyi could hear Mingyue's irritation upon seeing these crowd.
"Don't worry, we will not go to the same place with these people. "Xia Longyi smile while reassuring Mingyue.
"Those people are mostly normal citizen in the Fire Kingdom, so it is normal seeing this scene. This ceremony only happens once in a year you know.
Well, having a Ceremony of acknowledgement is not a must. But for those from the big family, we are required to follow this ceremony. But for a normal citizen, they believe that those children that undergoing Ceremony of Acknowledgement will receive a blessing from spirit" Xia Longyi added some common sense of a normal citizen.
Taking a big turn from the gate, they could see a small door that was guarded by a bunch of warriors and two elderly. Xia Longyi went to one of the elderly. After giving a nod, that elderly requested us to follow him.
From that little door, Mingyue could see a small garden inside. Mingyue had to follow the elderly while Xia Longyi, Xia Longshi, and the two guards moved to the different location.
[I did not expect there is a garden inside a building. It is very beautiful as I want to stay here for a while. But unfortunately, that elderly just keep walking so I had to follow him closely.]
The elderly finally stopped in front of a wide door that was guarded by two guards. The door was carved, kinds of similar with a mural.
While Mingyue was enjoying the beauty of the carved door, the elderly was handing a paper to the guard. Receiving a paper from elderly, one of the guards checked that paper and the other guard invited me to the inside of the room. Alone.

[Nothing bad will happen, right? No one will kidnap me too, right? Is there some kind of scary person inside?] Mingyue prayed in her mind.
Gritting her teeth, Mingyue walked through the door. The door was closed by the earlier guard. After looking at the interior of the room, Mingyue felt like seeing another world.
A world of glass or it should be glass. It was similar with rounded glass that Mingyue had near her bedroom, but the number here is uncountable. In the middle of the glass, she could see a light, with different colours. Some had a strong light, and some other had a weak light.
While she was attracted to this scenery, Mingyue could hear a low chuckle nearby. Mingyue immediately returned to her sense and looked at the source of the voice.
"Beautiful isn't it?" A kind looking elderly look at Mingyue.
[This elderly looked really old. Everything about him is white. White hair, white eyebrow, white long beard, white clothes, in a bright room. Really a white elderly]
"Welcome to Fire Temple, young girl. This should be your first time here right?" the white elderly continued.
Mingyue just nodded to him.
"What is that?" Mingyue pointed her finger at those sparkling things, but what she really wishes to know was that light inside round glass.
Understood what Mingyue wanted to ask, the white elderly continued, " That is a spirit, or it should be."
When white elderly say the first sentence, doubt was shown on her face. But when the latter sentence was said, Mingyue stopped what she wanted to say. She understood that the elderly is keeping the suspense for the answer.
Chuckling a little, the white elderly continued. "This is a product of alchemy. It has a very simple principle of operation. Inside that glass is some kind of iron ball, made of fine iron, fierce beast bone and demonic beast blood.

That iron ball is sensitive to the element inside the spirit. The colour you see in that light is the element of the spirit. Every time a spirit passed by, a colour that is suitable for a certain Element will be shown.
The secret is not lies in the iron ball, but in the glass itself. After that iron ball projecting colour, usually, the projected colour is close to none. By inserting iron ball in the middle of the liquefied glass, adding with alchemy skills that I do not understand, the result is what we are seeing now.
Each time spirit was passing by with another spirit, the light colour will change. The closer spirit with that glass, the colour is brighter."
His smile grew wider, the white elderly finished his explanation, " Hence, this is the reason for my answer earlier. That is the spirit, or it should be. "
Mingyue clearly interested in his explanation. [In that side, no one cares about qi, spiritual qi, or anything else. No one knows what kind of nature they have. They only understand if they are not strong enough, they will not be able to protect the people they love. But on this side, there are people trying to learn the unknown.]
"What a country bumpkin. Humph… " At the time that elderly and Mingyue were enjoying this ever-changing scenery, a childish voice could be heard.
[What an uncouth little brat.] Mingyue murmured because of her irritation of the uncouth little brat, but she did not realize that her word could be heard by the white elderly and that little brat.
"YOU…" Surprised with Mingyue's mumbling, the disturber did not expect this little doll dare to retort his word.
…
Shi Tianfeng's Point of View
He was Shi family Third Young Master, Shi Tianfeng.
At first, Shi Tianfeng was bored in this sparkly place. Because he arrived too early, he had to wait here all the way until the Ceremony of Acknowledgement come to the end. Of course, he will be bored. While he was dozing off, he suddenly saw a fairy.
Standing in the middle of the colourful light, her face devoid of any emotion, her facial feature is so delicate like a doll. Her hair flow like a silk. A few strands of white hair in the middle of black hair made her more magical. Her existence was like moon surrounded by stars in the sky.
After Shi Tianfeng returned to his sense, he was thinking of how to attract this little doll attention. Seeing some old person was telling some boring story, he got an idea.
[If I showed her that this Young Master is smarter than this old thing, the little doll would definitely be attracted to him. What a good plan!] And thus, Shi Tianfeng commenced his plan.
Unfortunately, both that white elderly and the little doll misunderstood his word.
Surprised by the little doll's retort, Shi Tianfeng could feel his face was hot like a boiled shrimp, but he didn't know whether it was because of the shame or anger.
[Humph! How dare she is! I am the great Young Master!]
The white elderly immediately stood in the middle of two of them to avoid any form of conflict in this place.
"We can begin Ceremony of Acknowledgement now" The elderly smiled trying to break this awkwardness. Handling two little brats is not easy.
[I thought this little girl is like a polished jewel, with a mature mind and calm temperament. But unexpectedly. . . ] The elderly laughed in his mind.
