THE LEGEND OF THE SWORD GOD
V2CH 257 NEW FIRE SWORD (PART 5)
“Alright, then let's go to the island. The two of us will open the protective formation for ten breaths so that you can enter the island. But if after twelve hours, you haven't obtained the scepter and heirloom sword yet then we will take you out of the island by force because your safety is also very important,” said Emperor Xuan De.
Heilong, Emperor Xuan De and Emperor Xin Wu immediately went towards the largest island where the Wind Phoenix Scepter was located.
Upon arriving there, Emperor Xin Wu and Emperor Xuan De instantly concentrated all of their wind and ice energies into both of his hands respectively. Then they made a move to open the Ice World Protective Formation.
A few minutes later, the front layer of the protective formation began to thin and a hole was formed to enter the island, this hole was enough for one person to pass through. So the Dragon could not have gotten through the hole had he seen it.
“Quick'lah get into the island. We could only hold the hole for ten breaths. After that this hole will close by itself and we will open it again after twelve hours or when you manage to get the wand and the heirloom sword. Remember you must return alive,” Emperor Xuan De told Heilong without looking at him.
Heilong nodded his head and immediately dashed into the island through the hole that Emperor Xin Wu and Emperor Xuan De had made. The hole finally began to close slowly after Heilong managed to get inside the island. But before the hole managed to close perfectly, a bluish-white light that had an ice-cold temperature shot into the hole very quickly. And finally the hole was perfectly closed after the ten breaths of time that Emperor Xin Wu and Emperor Xuan De had exhausted.
“Who went inside the island following Long Bai?” emperor Xin Wu asked Emperor Xuan De because he felt the aura from the light was similar to the aura of ice energy emanating from Emperor Xuan De's body.
“He is my Grandchild. Actually, I wanted to prevent him from catching up with Long Bai on the island. But if it is I do then you will get a counterattack from the energy we used to unlock this protective formation,” Emperor Xuan De replied in a slightly heavy tone.
Emperor Xin Wu patted the shoulder of his best friend to dispel the uneasiness that was in his mind. “Do not worry too much, the strength of the young man named Heilong and your grandson is very great. The strength of the two of them was already far above the swordsmen in general. You should also know that because you also saw the fight between the two of them against that Golden Wing Fire Dragon before we showed ourselves to the two of them.”
“What you said is true. Their combined strength is not much weaker than our strength. Actually I also thought, if I could prevent him from catching up with the current Long Bai it was likely that he would attempt to return to break through this protective formation with his own strength. As the power of love has blinded my Grandchild's mind,” Emperor Xuan De said as he shook his head.
**
The late Heilong managed to get inside the island where the scepter and heirloom sword were after he had made it through the hole in the protective formation made by Emperor Xin Wu and Emperor Xuan De.
He stood not far from the barrier wall and saw that the entire contents of this island had been burned by the golden-colored flame, only the area a few meters away from the barrier wall created by the protective formation alone was unburned. Perhaps it was because the air temperature around the barrier wall was so cold that the area could survive the rampage of gold-colored flames.
“Why do you even admire the power of our enemies? I am confused by your way of mind,” scolded Xue Xian Hou.
Heilong instantly turned his body backwards when he heard the voice of Xue Xian Hou suddenly appear from behind his body. He was very surprised when he saw that Xue Xian Hou was already standing behind him with a smile.
“Ke-Why can you be here? shouldn't you be outside guarding Xin Ye,” Heilong said nervously as if seeing a ghost.
“Why do you look so surprised when you see me here until you get nervous like that? Shall I not follow you to take the scepter and the sword of inheritance? I decided to leave Princess Xin Ye because now there was already my Grandfather and also Grandpa Xin Wu nearby, I believe the two of them can take better care of Princess Xin Ye than I am because the experience of the two of them is more than the experience I have,” Xue Xian Hou replied.
“What you said is true. The cultivation level of those two Grandfathers was also higher than the two of us should Xin Ye's condition be much better when under their care. But still this place is very dangerous for you, you should not follow going to this place,” Heilong replied.
“It will be even more dangerous if you die before marrying me,” Xue Xian Hou replied.
“...” Heilong could not say anything to reply to Xue Xian Hou.
“Have not argued with me again. My goal in catching you to this place is to help you take those two heirloom weapons. If we keep arguing when we're gonna get those two things. Out there Xin Ye is waiting for you to bring her the Wind Phoenix Sticks so she can come back from her coma,” Xue Xian Hou said to Heilong.
“You're right. We only have twelve hours to take the two heirloom weapons and also subdue the Golden Wing Fire Dragon,” Heilong replied. Then he looked around to find where the stone that became the nest of the Dragon was.
“What are you looking for. The dragon was in the middle of this island. You will be able to see if the fire in this place goes out or you enter into the blaze,” Xue Xian Hou replied pointing his hand to the middle of the island.
Heilong could see the shadow of a rock mountain sitting in the middle of the blaze even though it was only faintly visible.
