39 Ch. 39 'Under Attack 2 '

"Wait!" the king ordered. Xiao Yang stopped and turned to his father. "Your mother and I knew this would happen. The Knight of the Oracle had warned us decades ago before you were born. It's just that we didn't know that this would happen faster than we thought."

"What do you mean by that?"

"They want my power." answered the queen making Xiao Yang gasped. "The power to control the time. That's why they want to capture me and steal my energy."

"But as you can see, your mother is old and can't possibly use her strength. Even if they stole her energy successfully, it would disappear in the air when the transfer process carried out." This time the king explained. "When they realized that your mother was useless, they gave up, so we are safe for many years."

"Then what do they want now?" Xiao Yang asked.

His father did not answer, only glanced at his daughter, who was tightly embracing her mother's waist.

Xiao Yang followed the direction that his father glanced at, and when he knew who they wanted, Xiao Yang's fist immediately had a blazing fire and hit the wall next to him to put out the fire.

"Yang'er." Said her mother sadly, "I understand your feelings, but you scared your sister."

Xiao Yang immediately glanced at his sister, and his heart was like being stabbed by a sharp object when he saw fear dancing in his sister's eyes.

Xiao Yang closed his eyes and calmed himself. He tried to control the fire energy that was in him that was blazing ready to be released.

After making sure he was able to control his emotion well, Xiao Yang walked towards his sister and knelt in front of her to line their eyes.

"Forgive me. Did I scare you?"

Xiao Yue shook her head quickly to answer his question.

"I will not let them touch you."

Xiao Yue's eyes began to glaze over, hearing his brother's firm voice.

Now she understood the situation. The guest mentioned by her mother, came here to get her, which was not a good thing for them.

Xiao Yue could feel she would lose her family and happy life.

Xiao Yue immediately hugged his brother's neck tightly. "Please. I don't want anyone to get hurt."

Xiao Yang smiled sadly. Even though his younger sister was still small, she had a keen intuition. Xiao Yang gently patted his sister's back to calm down.

After that, without releasing his sister's hug, Xiao Yang glanced at his mother.

"Mother, can you stop the time for a moment. Enough time for Mother and Yue'er to slip away from this island."

The queen seemed to think for a moment, then smiled. "That's an excellent idea. It's just that Yang'er, the one who will leave here with Yue'er, is you. I will stay here."

"But, mother..."

"What your mother said is true. You should go with Yue'er, " interrupted the king.

Xiao Yue let go of her arms so that her brother could stand up and talk freely. But before Xiao Yang was about to speak, the king continued his explanation.

"All of them know there is a crown prince of fire elemental energy, and the princess who could control time. But they don't know your faces and names. As for us... I'm sure they already recognize our faces."

"If your mother is going to leave, then they will recognize Yue'er at once. And we can't possibly let Yue'er out there alone. So the only choice is that you also leave here with Yue'er."

"Father ..." came a sad tone from Xiao Yang's voice but could not refute his father's statement.
