Fang Yin continued walking slowly while remaining vigilant. His eyes rolled around to make sure there was no threat. In addition to the enemy, this place is relatively new, its short visibility limits it to see the surrounding conditions.
The energy essence hanging in the sky was visible from where Fang Yin was standing. He could not get close anymore because there was no ground to stand on. Currently he had been on the edge of a land that was not too vast.
'I wanted to see the foreign object but didn't know how to get close. The fog that covers this place is getting thicker, I don't want to endanger my life.' Fang Yin did not want to jump into the sky.
Within this dimension he felt his energy was limited. A place filled with mysteries did not make him challenged again to dig. He had reached a point of calm where what he was thinking now was not himself anymore.
Fang Yin had reached the peak of his strength as the Dragon Goddess. Perfection that made his body surpass the abilities of humans in general.
'I don't want to absorb that energy essence. I just want to know why I feel the same energy as that thing.' Fang Yin's palm rubbed his left arm.
A golden-coloured dragon scales appeared there. The scales glistened with their extremely bright light. The energy light in Fang Yin's hand was absorbed into the object hanging in the sky.
Not wanting to lose much of his energy, Fang Yin also shut down his energy flow. His legs moved backwards until his back hit a tree. The ability to absorb foreign objects was almost on par with the upper level Dragon Breath Force.
'Haha!' Suddenly Yang Hui laughed.
He's been asleep for a long time. After the melee ended he slept more than bothering Fang Yin. The anger and resentment that became his basic nature slowly eroded and made him more at peace with his current self.
'What is Yang Hui? It seems like you're very happy to see me acting stupid. Haish, how ironic, a Dragon Goddess was caught in such a humiliating state.' Fang Yin shook his head feeling lousy.
'You are a fool, Your Majesty. Of course the Soul Core absorbs your energy because it comes from pure air formed by you and Mr. Heng, explained Yang Hui.
Fang Yin rounded his eyes. He did not understand what Yang Hui said. Is it the soul core and why could it form here?
'I don't understand, Yang Hui. How could our Soul Core be formed from our pure air essence? Then ... How could he be in this place? It's hard for me to understand.' Fang Yin felt his head throb.
'Hemm .. how do I explain it to you, Your Majesty? I don't know where to start either.'
Yang Hui's words made Fang Yin even more curious.
'Just tell me the point, Yang Hui! No need to tell it in detail. My head gets dizzy if you don't tell me about this right away.' It was already Fang Yin's impatient nature and wanted to know everything.
There was no other choice for Yang Hui, if he did not comply with his wishes then he would definitely be punished. Once against Fang Yin then he would lose the comfort he had gained all along.
'Alright! I'll say it briefly. For a Dragon Goddess, she could also obtain offspring like women in general. However, she will not get pregnant and give birth. Their child is formed from pure air that accumulates little by little to form a Soul Core that continues to be refined, explained Yang Hui.
Fang Yin could not believe what he had just heard. Yang Hui's explanation was difficult for the human mind to digest but everything could have been true. This was her first experience of becoming a Dragon Goddess. So many secrets he had yet to know included what the Soul Core was like to form and become a baby.
'So that Soul Core is my son's future?' fang Yin asked as she stared at the energy essence forming in the distance.
'Could be. But I have not felt any signs of life in it. Every single Dragon Goddess who had married would have a Soul Core but did not know whether she would have a child or not.' Yang Hui said what he knew without adding or subtracting it.
There was a feeling of disappointment in Fang Yin's heart but he couldn't do anything about it. Everything that happened was uncertain by him. However, he will not despair and believe if he will have offspring that will continue his struggle.
Feeling that there was nothing more to do in the soul void dimension, Fang Yin chose to return to the real world. His body flinched as he returned quickly. Luckily Jian Heng who was hugging him did not wake up because of it.
'Thank God!' Fang Yin opened his eyes and found Jian Heng still asleep.
The night was long and he went back to sleep to rest his body. His heart felt calm after knowing that he would have offspring. Previously he was hesitant to hope because he did not have enough information about the life of the Dragon Goddess in the past.

Fang Yin was present at the Governing Council meeting to discuss the unrest on the western border. Jian Heng asked him to accompany her. This was the first time he had presided over a meeting as an emperor.
After all the participants of the meeting gathered, Prime Minister Huan Ran gave his speech. To shorten the time, he cut down on unnecessary talks and immediately said the point.
The members of the Governing Council appear to be taking this matter seriously. They are faced with problems that are directly related to the people. Slander and proselytization make people's trust in the government decrease.
If not addressed immediately, this problem will continue to grow and spread to a large area. Rebels will feel the upper hand and feel strong. It is not impossible that they will control a region and form their own government.
Prime Minister Huan Ran explained in detail the situation in the western border region. In order to take action, he asked all the participants to issue their opinions. Their opinions will be discussed and used as a consideration in concluding a decision.
The discussion forum was opened by Jian Heng and Fang Yin. They are free to express their opinions without offending or denigrating the opinions of others.
"Everybody has an opinion. We have to learn to respect and respect others." Fang Yin descended from the throne and watched directly the course of the discussion.
Its existence makes the participants do not dare to mess around. Although dominated by fear they still try to convey his proposal. Of the many proposals, an agreement was finally reached.
The final conclusion was the same as what Fang Yin wanted. The palace forces have the right to kill dissidents and pardon those not involved. This issue will not be resolved within a day or two as they will restrict the delivery of staple foodstuffs to the western border region.
The palace troops would lure the rebels and the instigated inhabitants to come and take away the food they had stockpiled. They will cooperate with the government that holds the western border region. In this way there will be few innocent victims from the community.
Fang Yin helped determine who would set out to tackle the problem at the border. His father will lead the troops and make repairs in the region.
Jian Heng dissolved the meeting and asked the Security Council to arrange for the departure of the troops. For matters of consumption and so forth, he asked the Logistics Board to prepare it.
Inside the room was just Jian Heng, Fang Yin and Huan Ran alone.
"Huan Ran, just let me come to see Father Feng. There's something else I want to talk to him about." Fang Yin stopped Huan Ran who was making a warrant for Tian Feng.
"All right, Your Majesty. Allow me to get back to work" said Huan Ran.
"Please!" replied Fang Yin did not want to hold it back anymore.
The room was quiet again after Huan Ran's departure. There was only Fang Yin and Jian Heng left.
"Sister Heng," called Fang Yin.
"Yes, Yin'er. Do you want to see your father-in-law now?" jian Heng asked.
Fang Yin nodded then moved from his seat. He looks excited.
"True, let's go there now."
They walked together leaving the palace hall leading to the residence of Concubine Shi and Tian Feng. To reach the place they had to pass through the park and some small palaces belonging to the government officials.
Along the way they met with servants and workers who were still repairing the palace. They looked extremely diligent despite not being aware of the arrival of Fang Yin and Jian Heng.
"I like to see them work. So excited and so neat." Fang Yin praised the workers.
"It must be because they feel very comfortable with their work environment. Hopefully we can make the entire population of the Eastern Continent prosperous." Jian Heng thought how to optimize the resources that existed in the Eastern Continent.
While on his adventure, Fang Yin also saw the many potentials of nature that had yet to be excavated. With a little guidance they can definitely take advantage of nature and earn some extra income.
Each region has different potential so that they can do business and sell their respective products. In the future Fang Yin wanted to create a container for the producers to exchange experiences.
Overly engrossed in chatting left them unaware that they had arrived in front of Consort Shi and Tian Feng's residence. The gatekeeper let them in and reported his arrival to Tian Feng.
Consort Shi was nowhere to be when they came. There was only Tian Feng who was training in the side garden. The aroma of the herbal plant began to smell around the place where it stood.
"Yin'er salutes you, Dad." Fang Yin reported his arrival.
Actually Tian Feng already knew of his presence but he was concentrating on creating something.
"Sit down, Yin'er, Heng'er! Allow me to finish my work." Tian Feng spoke without looking.
Fang Yin followed Tian Feng's words by sitting behind him with Jian Heng. They looked at the training done by Tian Feng.
There are some spiritual plants that have been split into small parts. The different fragments slowly mixed together and formed clumps in the air. When Tian Feng added his energy the wisp gradually solidified.
This was a high-level pill making technique. Fang Yin felt astonished upon seeing it. After Tian Feng succeeded he wanted to learn this technique as well.
The process of compaction of the spiritual plant essence that had fused was still ongoing. Tian Feng was seen reducing the energy pressure he used. Little by little sightings of the pill began to be seen and divided into several fruits.
At the refinement stage, Fang Yin felt the heat from the side effects of the burning done by Tian Feng. Uncomfortable with this condition, his right hand shook and released cold energy to dispel the heat. It turned out that what Fang Yin did brought a positive impact and made the refinement process complete quickly.
Tian Feng pulled the finished pills into his hands. A sweet smile graced her face then she quickly turned to face Fang Yin and Jian Heng.
"Yin'er! I succeeded! If you don't come, maybe the process isn't finished. I can't do the cooling process." Tian Feng pointed the pills before Fang Yin and Jian Heng.
They were amazed to see such quality results. Not only that, they also obtained new techniques to make medicine without using a furnace. Tian Feng could work together with Consort Shi to cool down on the refinement process.
"Dad can collaborate with mom to do it. With a little bit of Snow Cloud Qi then the hot side effects would drop in an instant," Fang Yin explained.
"You're right. Oh, yes, what brought you here? It's impossible to just play.play." Tian Feng took a seat before Fang Yin and Jian Heng.
"We did come with something important but before that it was better to keep the pills first. Certain substances may undergo a change in properties if left in the open air." Fang Yin was extremely meticulous in recognizing the type of plant used by Tian Feng.
"You know so well about drugs." Tian Feng did as Fang Yin said.
Seeing that Tian Feng had finished storing the pills, Fang Yin spoke again. He explained the problems occurring at the western border in detail. There is no information left unturned to convey.
Not to forget Fang Yin also delivered the results of the meeting conducted with the Governing Council. After everything was clear, Fang Yin expressed his heart intent to have Tian Feng lead the troops to the western border region.
"I believe you can handle this. It takes decisiveness and maturity to face them." Fang Yin felt calm after Tian Feng agreed to it.
On the western border, by,
The halt in the supply of foodstuffs to the region made them uneasy. Food storage in the warehouse is getting thin. They think how to find food supplies so that the people who inhabit the region remain on their side.
"We must report to His Majesty to address this issue" the deputy rebel leader said.
"Do you want to die?" ask the rebel leader.
The entire core members who were with them fell silent upon seeing the anger on their leader's face. This situation will make their plans a little hampered.
They did not know if this was indeed planned by Emperor Heng and Fang Yin.
