Chapter 102 - Was That Supposed To Happen? (1/2)
Bai Lei quickly leaves Nova with Zhen and shifts over to his office with a brooding look. He had looked over multiple things today and it truly disturbed him. The first was the Court Officials, The second was Biyu's behavior. The third, the guards and how they listened to Biyu's command.
None of this was okay... he had been gone for years so the power inside the Palace was distributed evenly so no one person can have sole power but that seems to have happened anyway. He never guarded himself against Biyu because she was like family, like a little sister.
Bai Lei tightens his fist as he looks at the reports on his desk. It seems he'll have to keep a closer eye on this ”Little Sister” of his... Suddenly, his entire body freezes as he turns to slowly look out the window.
That... He just felt power from the Under Realm! He quickly shifts over to the highest peak in the Demonic Realm and waits but he doesn't feel anything else. Bai Lei narrows his handsome, sharp eyes and waits a bit longer. He hadn't made that up... he felt power from the Under Realm... and that, shouldn't be possible.

Hours had past and I was still sitting in the soft white sand, completely lost. I look over to see Zhen sleeping under the tree. I have a bunch of evil ideas to sneak out while he's asleep but that wouldn't help me in the long run. This was so that I can become stronger so I need to take it seriously.
I strain to pitcher myself next to Zhen and will myself over but nothing happens. I imagine being light as a feather, lighter than a feather, but nothing works! I sigh in irritation and look to the bright sun in the large sky.
I look back to the sand and slowly pick up a handful. ”Can't you just move out of my way?” I say under my breath as I slowly pour the white sand out of my hand. Suddenly, the falling sand starts to slow to a stop!
I blink several times and nearly jump when I see all the sand lifting up around me as if someone suddenly turned off the gravity. W... what in the world? I slowly reach out and touch the floating sand, causing it to just move like waves in the ocean.
”L... Liling?” Zhen's shaky voice has me looking over to him in shock. ”Did you do this?” I ask looking back to the white sand in amazement. Zhen's mouth opens and closes several times like a fish out of water before snapping shut and shaking his head.
”This.. this is all you Liling... I've never felt this kind of magic before...” Zhen says startling me. Suddenly all the sand falls back causing me to jump and cover my face. I wave my hand in front of my face and cough several times as I look back to Zhen with confusion.
