The three of them touring inside the mystique realm, Zhao Li Xin who used to come here was surprised this place as not as desolated place as he thought, who knew when they walk far away from the sea and mountain volcano they're's a small lake with color deep blue color in the middle of nowhere and light green grass grow everywhere and red flaming flower bush growing near the lakes, Zhao Li Xin never seen this place before but of course, because he only comes for cultivating he never spends his time to look around like normal people would and Huo Long never told him either since Zhao Li Xin lack of interest.
Dozens of red butterfly flies around the flower and above the lake, it makes picturesque view Lory was mesmerized by the scene.
"Its beautiful isn't it" Huo Long smiles widened.
"Yes, its….magical" Lory stunned.
Huo Long chuckles "You know, I tear the old word and freeze it like this," he said with a complacent smile.
Lory's eyes bulged in awed "You can do that?"
"Its my special power as an Array Master" he puffs his chest.
"Array Master? Like Li Xin, Can Li Xin make something like this too?" Lory shocked beyond belief.
Huo Long wiggle his palm right and left carelessly "Someday….in much small version though"
Zhao Li Xin snort in contempt "You don't know that?" He refused to belittle by the old lizard.
Huo Long laugh dryly "You can try~" he teased him.
"WOW! Whatever you make I want to see it first!" Lory shakes his hand excitedly.
Her enthusiastic expression makes him happy, he patted her head dotingly "Of course…."
Huo Long tilt his head with 'Aaaww…' expression, he never dreams he would see Zhao Li Xin make that gentle expression if only he can freeze this moment.
"What!" Zhao Li Xin turns stern again when he looking at Huo Long and the Dragon feel hurt inside he felt his Son abandoned him.
'So sad….'
"Master Huo why you created this place?" Lory sits on the grass while Zhao Li Xin and Huo Long also follow.
Huo Long smile become warmer "Please call me, Long long~," he said shyly.
"...…"
"Master Huo is sufficed!" Zhao Li Xin rejects it strongly.
Huo Long look at Zhao Li Xin with disdained while Zhao Li Xin looking back at him with provoking expression. Huo Long snort with an upset look, its always better to have a daughter then a son after all.
Huo Long take a deep breath "I save this place before a human could ruin it" he said with a bitter expression "Human have too much greed even for a beast standard, they always want to possess all the good things in the world and they are not very good with sharing"
"Well, it hard to disagree with that" Lory adds in.
Huo Long nods his head "And human has this weird tendency if they can't have it so no one should…..isn't that weird? If you can't have it than that is not yours….its hard to understand how human brain works"
Lory chuckles she remember Girsha used to complain the same thing to her, Lory props her chin while listening to him rumbling about human until he seizes her up and down, make lory slightly uncomfortable and Zhao Li Xin cover Lory body with his wide sleeve.
He ignores Zhao Li Xin sour looks "Thankfully you hide you're appearance if not who knows how many troubles would come for you"
Lory squint her eyes "Don't you think they would scare with me, maybe they thought I'm a demon or something"
"Scare…maybe at first" Huo Long click his tongue "But you're beauty is one of the kind, many people would want to covet you"
Lory pursed her lips in disbelieved but Huo Long laughing at her "am I right boy?" he teased Zhao Li Xin again.
"Only if they so desperate to die," he said coldly.
Huo long smirked he knew Zhao Li Xin is not joking, who knows what kind of havoc he would create to protect her thankfully the little princess is sensible, if not…..
"How is you're condition?" Zhao Li Xin shifts his gaze on Lory.
"I'm good, at least thirty percent of my power has returned" Lory clench her hand and something warm flown on her veins.
"Good, you gonna need that both of you need to be strong" Huo Long nods his head.
Lory frowned "What do you mean?"
Huo Long scratch his head with annoyance "I want to tell you, but she said is not the time yet"
"Who?" Zhao Li Xin's eyebrows creased deepen.
"Uuugh…..tell you later" Huo Long look hesitated "Just increased you're power, and do you have any news about the sword?" he smartly change the conversation.
"No, not yet…" Zhao Li Xin's face remains indifferent.
"Aiyoo….how come you have no news about it" Huo Long rest his arms on his waist and pursed his lips in dissatisfaction expression "How about this, I give you a clue, go…..north" he pointing his hand with smug face waiting for Zhao Li Xin to thanks him, Of course, that would never happen.
Huo Long didn't have the reaction he wants so he exasperatedly clicks his tongue "Fine just go now! go-go-go" he waving his hand carelessly.
"Let's go" Zhao Li Xin help her stand.
Lory nods her head than she hollers to the sky [Girsha, we're going home!]
"What language did you used?" Zhao Li Xin always wants to ask.
"My hometown language, Harlandish," she said casually, a white bird flew down on her this time Girsha get slightly bigger then before, he looks more sturdy then he used to no wonder he got so hyperactive.
"Har….." like he used to he got trouble with the spelling.
Lory smiles while Girsha perch on her arms "Har-Land, that my Kingdom name"
"Har…Land" Zhao Li Xin murmured
"Is the name mean something?" Huo Long was also curious.
Lory quiet for a few seconds than she smiles solemnly " Its an ethion language 'Har' means 'Hope' it means 'A land of hope'"
