Wu Zhou didn’t expect the two youngsters in front of him would confidently say that the Blood Sea Tribe including their monster emperor couldn’t move these two at all. The way they say to let it come, shows that they had enough power to fight against the people.
The Moon Goddess said, "Alright. Let’s wait for them to come. If it’s like this hmm... should I move my alchemy lesson on this peak then?"
"Not possible, Xue’er. This academy hasn’t been renovated yet. Most of the areas are in ruins," the Immortal Sun Emperor said.
Wu Zhou said, "Don’t worry, Xiao Xue. Give Martial Uncle three days. Three days later the academy will return to normal. You can move your lesson after then."
The Moon Goddess nods her head and agrees to Wu Zhou’s words. Wu Yao had finished his medicinal bath and joined the conversation after he had changed his clothes.
"Three days later upon my ceremony return I would also introduce you to the academy as my disciple. That way no one will question you even if you wanted to start a lesson in the academy. I think you do not want to expose your real identities for now. I will erase all the traces that will expose your identities including the traces you left when you took over the Pill Tower," Wu Yao said as he joined them to the sofa.
The Immortal Sun Emperor asked, "Why are you hiding your identities, Xue’er?"
Yue Xuexia didn’t respond right away. Instead, she had suddenly recalled the memory or maybe a dream when the Exiled Star was said to be hers. Even though she couldn’t see the speaker, she is very sure that she knows who that talking person is. That voice gave her a warning.
Do not expose yourself before your three souls have merged.
This warning lingers in her mind even after waking up from her sleep that day. No one knows about this. Yue Xuexia told no one and even her other soul fragments, Yue Xuehua knows about this. The time that Yue Xuehua tried to sacrifice herself during Yue Xuexia’s last tribulation when she was promoted with a cultivation beyond what the ancient ruins can bear. So she was already gone when this dream had come to her, the Moon Goddess. That’s why she knows nothing about it.
Yue Xuexia looked at Shen Jueyang and said, "My reincarnation has always been incomplete. Your former wife, Xuehua, was a part of me but not all of me. I am still missing a part before my existence is considered complete. Jueyang, my existence is vulnerable. Moreover, as you know my soul... If I die again, I will never be able to reincarnate ever again."
The Moon Goddess didn’t explain about her special soul. Shen Jueyang knew what she meant and Yue Xuexia didn’t need to explain it further. After all, the secret about the soul of the Moon Goddess was something only he and the God of Wisdom knew and he is also not willing others to know about it. But what he didn’t expect was that Yue Xuexia’s existence was not complete as his after the reincarnation. Thinking of this, Shen Jueyang’s first thought was to find the system. If the system cannot be found then, he can only find the answer on his own. He knew that Yue Xuexia was not telling him everything but he also knew that had no right to question her.
The Immortal Sun Emperor’s cold voice said, "You will not die for the second time. Unless, I die before you."
Silence~
Yue Xuexia, on the other hand, smiled leaving all three men inside the room speechless. The most beautiful woman, akin to the moonlight, serene and pure as well as equally out of reach.
"I do not believe in the words spoken by men. If I did, I would not be like this..." Yue Xuexia’s words, two elders were confused and only one man seemed to understand her words.
The smile on her face now seems fake and forced. "So now, I believe only actions and not promises."
"I know. That’s why I didn’t make promises," said Shen Jueyang as he approached the expressionless woman staring at him with a fake smile.
He reaches out his hands and gently caresses the corner of the Moon Goddess’s lips.
The Immortal Sun Emperor said, "Don’t smile like that. If you are sad, then cry. I will not ignore you this time."
He suddenly gently pulled Yue Xuexia within her embrace. She didn’t struggle but didn’t hug him back. Even though the smile on her face had faded, her eyes never showed tears. Maybe she had cried enough as Yue Xuehua. Maybe she had enough experience as a mortal or maybe she just had enough that no more tears could fall from her eyes.
"Is that... so?" Yue Xuexia whispered and slowly closed her eyes.
In the eyes of the others, this reaction heart their heart. Say no more for Wu Yao who loves his disciple like his own daughter. His tears stroll down uncontrollably. He couldn’t imagine what would hurt a young and innocent lady like Yue Xuexia. For her to lose trust towards love another person who is supposed to live a lifetime with her. Even Wu Zhou, who didn’t have a direct relationship with the Moon Goddess, felt that this young lady was too pitiful and then an unknown anger asking why is there someone in this world who can harm someone this precious.
The hug lasted for a while until the Goddess of the Moon fell asleep within that warm embrace. Maybe she is just tired of pretending to be alright. She fell asleep, resting as she was tired, that’s all. The two elders felt strangely relieved seeing the Moon Goddess sleep like this.
Wu Yao said, "Go and bring Xue’er next door to rest and come back here. Don’t linger,"
The last few words were a warning. Warning the boy not to do something beyond what he is allowed to do so.
Shen Jueyang gulps silently and turns his head to look at the two strict old men watching him like a hawk.
Wu Yao added, "Be back in half an hour. We still need to talk about what to do with the Blood Sea Tribe."
"Brother is right. Even though you said it would be alright. We still need some plans to protect the students at least. Come back after tucking her properly," Wu Zhou said.
As of now, these two old men can only see Shen Jueyang as a junior now, especially since the Moon Goddess herself sees them as her elder. Because of that, even the Immortal Sun Emperor cannot use his majesty to suppress the old men. If he did, the Moon Goddess would beat him up.
Shen Jueyang pouting said, "I understand." Then left with an expression that fits his young man’s face.
After the Immortal Sun Emperor left, Wu Yao and Wu Zhou laughed. They truly didn’t expect the tyrant in the rumors was actually such a childish young man who was completely honest when it comes towards the person he loves.
Hahaha~
Wu Yao said, "This brat is truly... unexpectedly like this. The rumors about him seem to be a bit too...unreal."
"Brother, those were rumors of him in his past life. Of course, there would be unknown changes after being reincarnated. I have seen him before... His nickname as a tyrant fits him. The ’him’ right now didn’t though," said Wu Zhou.
Wu Yao recalls the relationship between the Moon Goddess and the Immortal Sun Emperor in their past life. It can be said that there is no love between them. Only one-sided unrequited love of the Moon Empress to the Immortal Sun Emperor while the Immortal Sun Emperor was focused only to the Cosmos Battlefield.
In the end, betrayal from a friend, the sacrifice of the Moon Empress to buy some time for the Immortal Sun Emperor to escape and finally a tragic ending that led to the downfall of the former Immortal Sun Empire. Thinking how tragic these two children had ended, Wu Yao felt bad for them.
Wu Yao mumbles, "Thankfully, this time they at least have feelings for one another and not just a one-sided one from my disciple. Moreover, this time it’s the brat who is lovestruck. Fate really moves in a different way."

Meanwhile at the room next door, Shen Jueyang placed the sleeping Yue Xuexia on the bed. He carefully laid her on the bed. He stared at her asleep for a while, watching as seconds passed by.
Until Yue Xuexia on the bed suddenly opened her eyes. But until the silver eyes, she always has been changed with irises of crescent moon. A pair of eyes, Shen Jueyang only sees when Yue Xuexia is using her Moon Domain. But the Immortal Sun Emperor can see some difference within it, its not pure silver but with the hints of slight golden shade. As if the Moonlight had been tainted with time, ancient and old.
Shen Jueyang immediately recognize who the owner of these eyes are,
"Yue Xuehua?" He calls.
