“Dad, you’re finally back.” Yao Si pounced onhim.Didyou know? Your baby was so afraid!
“Mu.Xuan,” he spat out resolutely.“Or father.”
“Mu Xuan dad.”
“…” He sighed.“I heard you met some bad people?” heasked before she could speak again.
“Yea!” Yao Si stilled, shaking her head.“That’s not important, I’vegotsomething to tell you… I think there’s a problem with my ability.” She instantly went to the important part since she was used to clarifying things with him.
Mu Xuan frowned, taking a good look at her. After he confirmed that therewasn’t anything visibly wrong with her, his temples relaxed slightly. His cub was unusuallyunlucky, constantly in harm’s way—outsideshe was kidnapped, at homeshe met burglars. He probably had to keep a tighter watch on her in the future. How could he allow others to bully his cub after he had not been part of her life for so long.
“What’s wrong with your ability?” He reached out for her arm, transferring some energy over to investigate her condition. The energy went one round but wasn’t able to catch anything, hence, he brought it back.
Yao Si had no ideaabout it, so she explained what happened last night in detail.
“Isn’t space summoningthe main skill of the space type abilities?” Space splitting was the more advanced version, but only the very best wereable to accomplish that.“Why was my space ability only able to move those three burglars…” The main point was that she still couldn’t feel anything!
Mu Xuan lowered his head in deep thought before replying. “It’s possible…that it isn’t a normal space ability.”
“Not normal?” Then what was it? She had clearly opened a black space portal similar to the one created by thatburglar Lao Da.
“Yours could be negative space.”
“Huh?”What is that?
“Even though the space ability is split into space summoning and space splitting, it is fundamentally the same ability,” Mu Xuanexplained seriously.“Itworks by first creating a space opening and then placing objects initto send them elsewhere. But your space ability actsdifferent, it works in the opposite way.”
“… How so?”
“Opposite in sequence.”
“Sequence…” Yao Si stilled, her eyes going wide.“You mean,Idon’t put things into the space opening but rather take them out?”
“That’s right.” He noddedand reached out to caress her head approvingly.“Negative space allows you to take anything from the surrounding space,and at that momentthe three burglars were the closest objects thathadentered a space opening,hence it was what you removed.”
“Hmm…” Why did this ability seem so weird? Was that why a single thought was enough for herto automaticallyunravel the three burglars’optical computers, tossing all their lootout? Her ability seemedlike the ultimate way to keep things where they are. With such an amazing ability, should she join a cult or something?
“I have one more question!” She weakly raised a finger.
“Mmh?”
“My ability… is it a one time thing?”
“…”
Yao Si confessed everything, abouthow the ability disappearedsoon aftershe activatedit.
Mu Xuan sunk into deep thought before replyingonce again.“There are strong and weak abilities, and sometimesone’s energy will be exhausted,but Ihaven’t heard about a one time ability.”
“Then why can’t I—”
“There’s no need to hurry.” He reached out to caress her head, comfortingher. “I’m sure it’s because you aren’t familiar with your ability yet, that’s why it only erupts when you really need it. Whenyou’re relaxed, it might…”
He stilled, as if having thought of something. He lowered his head andglanced at her with contemplation.
“Wha- what’s wrong?” Yao Si wriggled away, starting to feel uneasy from his gaze.
He pulled her up.“Follow me somewhere.”
“Ah? Ah,” Yao Si replied blankly.
By the time she processed his words, she was already brought to a large field with walls covering all four sides. Even the ceiling was shielded, enclosing the entire field.
“Where’s this?”
“A practice field,” Mu Xuan replied.
Practice field? Wasn’t itthe field bloodlings usedfor practicing their abilities, which in reality meant it was a real battlefield?
“Why are we here?”
“Try it.” Without further explanations, Mu Xuan raised his arm, and the next momenta gigantic fire dragon flew into the skies. It was completely different from the galactic pirate’s ability, for Mu Xuan’s fire was blue. The gigantic fire dragon few about in the air as though it was alive.
“What’s wrong?” Mu Xuan asked.“Do you feel your ability?”
Yao Si stilled, lowering her head to feel for something, then shook her head.“No.” She still felt empty inside.
Mu Xuan lowered his arm, and the fire dragon instantly disappearing. Hefrowned deeply once more.
“What’s wrong with my ability?” Yao Si asked.Is there a real problem?
“I’m not sure yet…” he replied as he sent a text out on his optical computer.“I need to test it out first.”
Afterthishe tried several more abilities, the water series, gold series,and space series, displaying all of them in front of her.
Is he trying to demoralizeme?-.-”
Just as she was about to voiceher inner thoughts, Yao Qian rushed over.
“YourMajesty, what do you need me for?” Yao Qian asked as he looked at the both of them.
“You have the earth ability?” Mu Xuan asked.
“Yea.”He nodded.
“Practice with Sisi.”
“Ah! Ah?” Practice? What didpractice mean? Wasn’t her highness’ ability not stable yet?But whenhe was about to clarify, Mu Xuan was already at the entrance a few hundred metersaway, not giving him an opportunity to understand the situation.
“Your Highness?” He turned to look at Yao Si.
._.”
Mu Xuan’s personal display wasn’t enough, he specifically gotsomeone else to flaunt their abilities?
Forget it…She had already gotten used to it.
“Unleash your ability!”Please start the performance!
Yao Qian turned to look at the both of them once morewitha facefullof confusion,but he still did as commanded.“Your Highness, please be careful.”
The next moment Yao Si could feel an immerse energy rising within her body. It was unlike anythingshe had felt before. Yao Qian’s energywas so massive that even after his deliberate attemptto restrain it, itstilldevoured the entire practice ground. Even the air seemed to slow, turningoppressive and hard to breathe. When contrasted with the burglars, Yao Qianperfectly presented a senior’s capability, turning his opponentsinto amateurs.
The ground started to shake, and rows of vines sprouting from below. Theyseemed like rows of sharp fangs, crawling in Yao Si’sdirection. Shecould also feel a strange sense of suppression,as though something was forcing her to the ground.
Her legs weakenedand she was on the verge of collapsing, but right at that moment, she felt a surge of energy within her, dissipating the sense of suppression and freeing her body.
