Awakening of the Ancient: Rise of the Fallen

11 Chapter 9: Offending Illustrious Emperor

Abruptly, the door was opened as a beautiful girl hurriedly walked inside. She was wearing a beautiful blue gown that came down to her ankles, not demonstrating even the slightest bit of her jade-like legs.

Her clear blue eyes matched quite well with Xu Liang's deep blue eyes. She possessed a small nose and slender eyebrows. Her hair was sunrise gold, which fell over her shoulders. Her perfectly sculpted figure dressed in her beautiful gown made her appear even more beautiful.

As soon as her eyes fell on Xu Liang, they couldn't help but tear up. She hurriedly ran towards Xu Liang and jumped into his arms and embraced him tightly before she started weeping.

"Brother Liang...." She kept saying again and again as the tears kept falling from her eyes. As she wept, she kept hugging him tightly like her life depended on it.

Xu Liang moved his hands as he brought them to her delicate back and hugged her back. He could feel her pain of losing something dear to them as unlike Xu Liang of the heavenly realm, he had suffered an actual loss of loved ones and knew what it meant to lose somebody.

Although Xu Liang of this place had probably also lost all his family, that couldn't be considered a loss in his opinion as he had never even known about them. He didn't hold any memories of his life before he met Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu. He had no familial bonds that he felt like he had lost when he met Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu and there was no sensation of loss or feelings for any family. Since the moment he met Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu, his life had changed for the better and was filled with familial love but Xu Liang from Earth was different.

Xu Liang from earth was like a normal teenager who cared about his parents, but destiny took a cruel decision for him. He lost both his parents at the same time when he was merely 17. He understood the pain of losing a loved one and understood what it signified.

He, who lived the life of an orphan, remembered the sense of heartbreak. All he had was money and responsibilities. He recalled the initial days when he wept secretly in his room as he missed his parents just like the girl was doing in front of him right now.

He lived through the pain by himself and learned from it. He stopped crying as he buried his weakness deep in his heart so that he could comfort his sister who needed his support.

"Don't cry little Yue. Everything should be alright now. I'm still here for you and I will forever be" Xu Liang said in a gentle tone as he hugged Yue.

"About time you woke up, little guy" A man in a golden robe entered the room as he said in his heavy voice with a smile. A big relief was clearly distinguishable in his eyes which gazed at Xu Liang gently.

Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu had spent over ten years with Xu Liang but he had never once seen him smile so brightly. Although Xu Liang used to smile once in a while, that was only minor and couldn't be considered more than a smirk. Tian Zhu knew that Xu Liang was not adept at showing his real emotions. Throughout his life, Xu Liang had never smiled so brightly but not a single person minded as they all knew that it was just Xu Liang's nature. It was just like that.

"Ah... Liang,  are you alright? " Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu couldn't help but ask.

"Of course I am. What could possibly be wrong with me? In reality, I feel even better than ever. " Xu Liang said with a smile as he gazed at Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu with his inscrutable blue eyes.

Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu couldn't help but gaze at him with a suspicious expression.

"I sent somebody to tell Yin that you woke up. She will soon be here to check on you. She will be so astonished to see you up. You know when you went to sleep 7 years ago, She said that she couldn't do anything to get you to wake up and that it was impossible. She stated that it was something she had never seen before. Your soul was trapped in a void unable to be accessed by anyone from outside. She stated that even though she is known as the goddess of medicine, she can't cure you and that the chances of you waking up are zero. I have never been so happy at her being wrong in my life" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said as he gazed at Xu Liang.

"Young Prince Liang! So their news was right, you woke up!!! Such a good day it is" A red-robed man walked in the room as he said with a smile.

" Uncle Zhen, Thanks for your wishes," Xu Liang said with a smile.

"Little guy, you really are lucky that you have such a good father as his majesty. I had never witnessed him as worried as I discovered him on the day you went into the coma. He went forth to bring the goddess of medicine but found out that she went to the palace of the Illustrious Emperor in the North to treat his concubine.  He entered the palace and took the goddess of medicine with him in between her treatment of the concubine of Illustrious Emperor. Although he offended the Illustrious Emperor, he didn't care because he was worried about you. " War God Zhen said with a soft smile as he gazed at Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu.

"As for the princess, she was just as worried for you. She passed most of her day here holding your hand and gazing at your face and the remaining part of her day in the library, looking for cures. " War God Zhen chuckled as he said to Xu Liang. Yue's face turned crimson as she thought about Xu Liang hearing all about her.
