I Finally Know Where My Place Is-

Full Title: I Finally Know Where My Place Is Within the Dream That Your Grandfather Had Seen

*Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!* as lightning continues to come down from above the mist of cold Qi gradually dissipates to reveal the figure of Ye Gui Feng beneath the lightning shower.

A somewhat thick layer of ice covers half of Ye Gui Feng's body but under the rapid strikes of lightning this layer of ice slowly crumbles while ripping off a layer of his skin.

Ye Gui Feng's appearance at this time can only be described as miserable as most of what remains of his clothes is just the lower portions of his robes.

[...]

Standing about within the lightning shower Ye Gui Feng remains completely still without moving.

[...]

Narrowing his eyes the Asura Monarch sees that Ye Gui Feng's eyes are closed almost as if he is asleep.

Regardless of the pain that the lightning shower brings to him Ye Gui Feng shows no signs of waking up. It is almost as if the pain of being electrocuted cannot even reach him.

Under ordinary circumstances the Asura Monarch might assume that Ye Gui Feng had died already however the faint demonic Qi that exudes from his body has only increased in density. This means that he far from being at death's doorsteps.

As a few moments go by-

[...I-...]

.........

*Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!* the sound of lightning going off continuously is something that causes Xiao Ju Hong's heart to skip a beat as her expression turns anxious.

If possible Xiao Ju Hong would want to rush outside right this instance but-

"..."

Sitting at the center of the magic array Xiao Lian has her eyes closed seemingly unconscious. Half of the entire scroll painting is sticking out of her chest as it slowly merges into her soul.

Since the binding of the scroll painting to Xiao Lian's soul has reached the critical junction it's impossible for Xiao Ju Hong to leave. Leaving right now would be completely irresponsible of her as a parent and it would be the exact opposite of what Ye Gui Feng would want when he is outside buying them time.

"..."

Looking towards Xiao Ju Hong who had an anxious expression on her face Die Fei inwardly sighs.

"You should stop biting your lips."

"...Uh."

The moment Die Fei says this Xiao Ju Hong loosens her mouth as a sense of pain hits her. Had Die Fei not pointed this matter out Xiao Ju Hong would probably never have realized it.

"Trust him to buy us the time that we need."

"...Un."

Giving Die Fei a kind nod Xiao Ju Hong takes a deep breath of air before focusing on her task at hand of keeping the magic array active.

*Boom! Boom! Boom!* to the best of her abilities Xiao Ju Hong ignores the sound of striking lightning that is in the background.

Should anything go wrong with this part of the process and result in future consequences Xiao Ju Hong would never be able to forgive herself.
