Heavenly Opposers

63 Chapter 63

"I guess, it's time I gave you the family name..."

Amber said as she looked at Yun Yurou, hearing her words the rest that was planning on moving stopped as they waited for Amber to finish the ceremony, receiving a family name is a highly respected pact, unlike other family names, their family name was one recognized by the heaven themselves!

Placing the name would mean that just giving out the name would cause others to fall under heavy pressure that sought to crush the foolish ones that dare move against it, everyone's expression turned serious as Amber's flame rose out of her body, it wasn't just her, the ancestors to the elders all of them made their move as several powerful flames appeared

At some point Xiao was moved far away from Yun Yurou, he stood there was quiet as he for the first time watched a naming ceremony, for others at birth itself the name would be attached to them but there are special ceremonies for ones that have yet to have a heavenly family name bestowed upon them, Yun Yurou looked stunning as she stood surrounded by the raging flames of the past

Circular protection of flame had surrounded Yun Yurou, it was as if they were all welcoming a new member to their family, soon the core within Yun Yurou wailed as her flame blasted forth within her surrounding the others, even among the many Yun Yurou's flames blazed with beauty and grace seen by all, it felt as if the mixed flame even with just a hint of purple demands respect above all

Many who were seeing it for the first time up close couldn't help but marvel at its beauty but this didn't distract Amber as her flame which burned with red and yellow took the lead as its shine burst forth, soon the rest followed, creating a beautiful scene that will take one's breath away, Amber stood before Yun Yurou as she spoke

"Let the Heaven and Earth bear witness to the promise made lost in time, I Amber Flammia invoke the witness protection!"

Saying so a pressure descend upon all within the world, everyone was stuck within their position, as the heavenly pressure descended on them all unless one had equal power to the heavens themselves, none would be able to defy this power, the heavens had come to bear witness.....

This was the gift given only to the ones that had earned the recognition of the heavens and would continue on to their descendants, true power and strength would always be recognized by the heavens, feeling the pressure on her Amber smiled as she continued

"Time, space, life, death, chaos destruction, sky, land, gravity, all that was at the beginning of creation to all that was in the end, let them all bear witness the birth of a Flammia, ancestors that fought for glory, ancestors recorded with glory to the ones lost within the sands of time, I call upon your souls to witness"

Soon a huge quake spread across the lands, the flames that were spread across Yun Yurou started to twist and turn, and break as different eyes emerged from among them, all of them came to bear witness, they were heroes from the past that fought for the future, they had the right to witness, by now Yun Yurou was surrounded with beautiful light that danced upon her entire being, Amber gazed at it as her words resonated with power spread

"Bless her and gaze upon her as she fights through the cruel reality of cultivation, give her strength to move past sadness and her pain, give her the willpower to come above her enemies, give her the power of the Flammia such that she emerges as the strongest, raising the name to heights far above now"

"Rise and rejoice at the birth of a new Flammia her name Yurou Flammia!, let her name spread across the vast cosmos, as her enemies tremble at her names, while her allies rejoice at her appearances, today a new member joins the family!"

With her last words the heavens above thundered, the sound being heard across the world, the heavens had recognized her name, a new Flammia, Yurou Flammia had been born and everyone was made aware, while back at the palace all the flame burned as they surrounded Yurou Flammia, all the eyes that were on her gave her one last look before joining into one flame and combining to Yurou's flame, now any actions she does would affect the name Flammia, all her karma, destiny and luck would be combined with the name

Be it glory, death, or defeat her name would follow it in all, soon the pressure and everything disappeared as Yurou appeared in front of everyone, her beautiful eyes opened as she gazed upon her family, soon she gave a bow to everyone within the hall, expressing her respect, Amber smiled satisfied as she patted Yurou's head, soon her expression turned serious as her orders were laid

"Now let the preparations for war begin"

Hearing her words everyone nodded their heads as they disappeared, Amber gave some words to Yurou and disappeared, the next moment both she and Xiao was led back to the same room they were in before

"Xiao, what will happen now?"

Yurou asked as she kept her head on Xiao's shoulder, Xiao stayed silent as he gazed at the ceiling, in truth he himself has a lot of questions and his head was a bit messy, the questions were lurking within his mind, reminding him that danger was afoot, starting with why did the world burning phoenix send them here? how long do they have to be here? is this the past? or just an illusion they were in?

Lots of questions but no answer, even then he didn't hastily reply as he held Yurou's hand with his, providing her the warmth that she wanted, feeling Xiao's hand squeeze her's she smiled, as she squeezed it back, Xiao smiled looking at her as he spoke

"In truth, I am too confused about all that's going on but I can promise you one thing, I will make sure that both of us come out of this alive, this I promise you, Yurou Flammia"

Yurou's eyes opened wide in surprise before which she smiled, her hands wrapped around Xiao's as she spoke

"Idiot...shouldn't it be me protecting you? after all right aren't I more powerful than you"

Her words were a bit playful, causing Xiao to shake his head, he didn't deny her on that, his main objective was just to relax here nerves, he could feel that Yurou's extremely tensed, after all the ones going to war were her family, she might have just met them now but due to her bloodline she feels close to them, more than the Yun family, and for that, all Xiao could do was help her relax a bit

But unknown to them something deep and dark lurked behind them hidden within the darkness, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike, Xiao who comforting Yurou stopped for a moment, his soul quivered as it felt a familiar sense he was extremely close with.....killing intent!

Soon the figure in the darkness moved, alerting the two within the room, Xiao moved a bit faster as he felt the power before but even then he was late, the figure from the shadows attacked

Slash

And with that blood flew....
