Astra bowed and left without fear.
Sometimes silence is the loudest truth.
⚡ Chu Feng — Far Away, Somewhere Training Alone
Lightning split the sky — violently.
Chu Feng stood alone in a vast clearing.
Sweat dripped.
His fists cracked the earth.
⚡ Lightning Armor flared — stronger than yesterday.
His heart thumped—
instinct screaming:
Someone strong is rising too fast.
A storm… equal to his own.
His lips curled upward, fierce and wild.
"So… there's someone else who refuses to kneel."
He glared at the roaring heavens.
"You never help me.
You only challenge me."
Lightning wrapped around him like a cloak.
Chu Feng clenched his fist—
ready to fight the world.
"If heaven blocks my path—
I'll break heaven."
Thunder answered like war drums.
A rival star was rising.
Chu Feng welcomed it.
🌙 Bai Ruyin — Confused Heart
Bai Ruyin waited outside the elder hall.
She told herself she was just being responsible.
The door opened — Astra stepped out.
He looked calm… too calm…
like someone who faced death often.
"You're reckless," she said.
"You worry too much," Astra replied softly.
Her heart skipped.
She turned away quickly — hiding a blush she didn't understand.
Why do I care if he gets hurt…?
👁 The Mirror Woman
A water mirror hovered in a silent palace.
The moon-haired woman watched Astra walk with Bai Ruyin.
Her lips curved into a playful, dangerous smile.
"So that's you… my fated one."
She traced a finger on the mirror's surface —
"Heaven fears your bloodline…
but I…"
She smirked.
"…am in love with power."
Behind her, the symbol of her clan glowed:
Heaven Sealing Clan
A clan older than history itself.
Astra returned to his room and sat.
