Vesta And Xiao Ai Conversation

Primordial Divine Ark - Training Ground

Tang Xiao was seen training with his new weapon, not only sword, but he was also proficient with other types of weapons such as spear, stick, bow, trident, and etc.

As for Tang Yin, she chose the three-section staff which is often called the 'San Jie Gun', besides that she also chose two handguns.

Unlike Tang Xiao who mastered many martial arts and weapons, Tang Yin was more focused on wushu, and her favorite weapon was the 'San Jie Gun'. As for her marksmanship, it was their father who taught her. She had also been training since she was eight years old, and her marksmanship was also very precise.

And while they were busy practicing, Vesta and Xiao Ai continued to observe them as they chatted seriously. [Actually, I know about the destruction of 'Atropos', Vesta.]

{Hmm?} Vesta looked at Xiao Ai curiously, she herself couldn't remember how long she was trapped in the red stone. {What do you know about the destruction of 'Atropos'?}

[I know everything, the main cause of the destruction of 'Atropos' is the red stone that is now embedded in Master's forehead, Right? You 'Atropos' people are master smiths and craftsmen, and within your bodies there is a unique fire. If I remember correctly, the name of the red stone is 'Flare Stone', and the 'Flare Stone' can increase your Fire power many times.]

Vesta's eyes widened after Xiao Ai said that, she really didn't expect that Xiao Ai recognized the 'Flare Stone'. {Then why did you tell Master that you know nothing about it?}

Xiao Ai shook her head at Vesta, then she explained. [At first I didn't recognize the 'Flare Stone', but after you tried to fuse with Master, I was able to recognize your Flame instantly. From that I can conclude that the red stone is the 'Flare Stone', the 'Flare Stone' is an important item for the poeple of 'Atropos', and only their queen has the right to use the 'Flare Stone'.]

{You're right, the destruction of 'Atropos' was indeed because of the 'Flare Stone'.} Vesta said with a sigh, then she recounted with a sorrowful expression. {The humans who call themselves cultivators, I don't know where they actually come from, but suddenly one day they attacked us. Moreover, they were also assisted by the beast man tribes, and they also brought dragon riders. Even though 'Atropos' has a lot of advanced equipment, in the end we are still powerless to withstand their attacks.}

Xiao Ai wasn't surprised by that, how advanced their equipment was, of course they wouldn't be able to fight cultivators, let alone dragon riders. {Those beast man tribes and dragon riders, they came from the 'Thousand Beast Realm'. As for those cultivators, they came from the supreme realm called the 'Immortal Paradise', and the person who leads them is called the 'Flame Emperor'.}

{'Thousand Beast Realm', 'Immortal Paradise', and 'Flame Emperor', huh?} Vesta muttered to herself, but clearly her tone was filled with hatred.

[I can only tell you one thing, right now 'Atropos' is as intact as it used to be, and your people are still alive.]

Vesta abruptly turned to her, and she looked at Xiao Ai in shock. {What do you mean by that?}

[One day you will definitely know about the current 'Atropos', but I ask you not to say anything to Master about 'Atropos' for now.] Xiao said with a serious look at Vesta.

Xiao Ai didn't really want to keep it a secret from Tang Xiao, but the consequences would be dire if the current Tang Xiao knew that she and Vesta came from the future, especially if the current Tang Xiao knew that it was the future Tang Xiao who created her.

Because Tang Xiao's current situation had also shifted from the history she knew, one of which was that Tang Yin was still alive. So she must be careful in her speech and actions, so as not to disrupt the order of the universe even more.

Seeing Xiao Ai's serious expression, Vesta who was once the queen of a world of course she understood what Xiao Ai meant, so she nodded in agreement and didn't ask any further. But in her heart, she also wanted to prove Xiao Ai's words that 'Atropos' was still as intact as it used to be.

Tang Xiao Room

After finishing his training, Tang Xiao immediately returned to his room at Ouyang House, and it was already very late when he returned.

"Sigh, I haven't practiced in a long time, my body feels stiff all over." Tang Xiao muttered as he massaged his arms and legs, as his body ached all over.

Fortunately, inside the Ark there was a place to bathe. So he could go straight to sleep, but just as he was about to sleep, someone knocked on his door.

*Knock... Knock...*

"Hmm? Who comes at this time of night?" Tang Xiao muttered in annoyance, as he intended to rest after training for quite a while.

He immediately stood up and opened the door, but he was immediately surprised when he opened the door, because a woman with waist-length blonde hair was standing in front of the door.

'Jessica? Why did she come to see me?' Tang Xiao inwardly asked in confusion, he really didn't expect that one of his enemies would deliver herself to him. "What can I do for you, Miss?"

"Can I talk to you?" Jessica asked back, but then she hastily said again. "Don't get me wrong, I just wanted to confirm something, because I feel familiar with you."

Tang Xiao raised his eyebrows. 'Does she recognize me? But that's impossible, since she's not a cultivator, so there's no way she can see through my disguise.'

"Come in." He then led Jessica into his room, and immediately closed the door.

"Why did you close the door?" Jessica asked frantically, and she subconsciously took a few steps back and distanced herself from Tang Xiao.

Tang Xiao didn't answer her, then he sat on his bed and asked. "What do you want to talk to me about?"
